St.Mirren v Aberdeen

[Ethan]

Seriously why do we switch off at the back. We are in danger of falling apart

[linwood buddie]

Our defence are forgetting how to defend here.

[StanleySaint]

Fraser went to follow Ramirez but was blocked off.

[faraway saint]

We're under pressure here, defence is a shambles. 

[Doakes]

Goodwin must be raging. He was talking about keeping it tight at the back recently but all over the place at the moment, basic errors like ball watching

Their first goal had more than a share of good fortune, as did ours TBH. 

[zurich_allan]

Defence and overall shape are all over the place. Need to be completely reorganised at the break.

[faraway saint]

After a decent start we've faded and Aberdeen have deserved their lead. 

Need something to change in the second half. 

1-2 half time result.

 

[StanleySaint]

As others have said playing the ball on the floor and pushing men forward is how we look more comfortable although still too many pass backs.

Aye, you can forgive a fortunate goal, but you can't expect to win games if defenders aren't holding shape, midfielders not tracking back and ball watching at set pieces. Lucky not to be further behind. Not good enough towards the end of that half

[JJ McG]

Good header for the goal but McGrath needs to go and attack that ball and clear it, he just watches it, he’s been very poor today as has the whole team. 

This is a poor Aberdeen team and we are making them look half decent, brophy is getting zero service.

[Tommy]

The Don's pressing of us is giving us no time on the ball. Something will need to change or we are in for a painful 2nd half. 

[billyg]

The game is passing Erhahon by !

I agree,and have already said, our defence are all over the place but it's still sore when it comes off Browns heel when he's facing the other direction.

Them's the breaks. 

[Doakes]

Long balls to Brophy don't work. Sky stats had him down as only touching the ball 8x at around the 35th minute 

Ronan and McGrath need to start combining

McGrath has not been at it for a few weeks. He doesnt work hard enough at times. You could say that about a few of our players though

[saint in exile]

This 3 at the back isn't working. And Brophy is so isolated up front. Despite having a 5 man midfield we're still relying on the long punt fro Alnwick. If there was a league table for passes back to the goalie, we'd be top.

[bigjerseybuddie]

Too slow in anticipation. Now have to chase the game and break teams down. What does Dennis have to do to get on? Is he still getting punished for his sending off?

second half just started and still poor anticipation. Not a football brain amongst them

[faraway saint]

Almost straight in from a Tanser cross, damn it. 

[Clydebanksaint]

Aberdeen down to 10

[renfrew156]

red card for sheepshaggers

[antrin]

Collum going card-crazy.
