SMcoolJ Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Really poor night for McInnes last night. We were beaten as soon as his team selection was made. He makes the same errors all too often. If you can't pick your best team (as evidenced in previous matches) and have a go at home, in front of a sell out crowd, while on equal points with opposition, in the middle of a really busy spell for Celtic then when can you? Would rather lose 6-0 having a real go than settle for the p1sh we had to endure last night.  Losing the energy of Christie (another nonsense management decision) was always going to be an issue and should have been addressed. Wright was the obvious replacement. Considine, even if fully match fit, which he clearly wasn't shouldn't have been anywhere near that team. Rooney should only ever play at home against bottom six opposition (and even then, i think it's a big ask). McLean has wasted a jersey for over three years and last night was no different. Yet McInnes persists. I think his stubbornness/arrogance will always be his downfall. While it was always going to be a tall order (and i don't mean to discredit a very good Celtic performance), last night was the lowest point of the McInnes reign for me. Wrong team, wrong tactics, inevitable outcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parklife Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 2.5 years of a contract to pay up. Likely at least another £1 million pished away. What a shambles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairbairn Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 It was going to cost us more money to keep him than pay him off. Â Lets not forget this is a manager who led us to our worst ever European result and we've been going backwards in the league with the distinct possibility of Hearts and HIbs overtaking us in coming weeks.

Although I do think the LC final against the same team runs last night very close. Rooney is lost, wasted even, where he's asked to play. DM needs to stop picking KM now. The 'message' by continuing to do so will contribute to a few more 'last nights!' For the first time I also felt DM's post match interview was weak and designed to cover his own mistakes. Changing our back 4 was mental to everyone apart from himself.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may have a lengthy notice period or he may lose a loyalty bonus based on it but Aberdeen would not be able to stop him leaving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pool Q Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Be an interesting few days, especially with the game at Murrayfield coming up. I wonder if Billy Davies will be in the media giving details of how Billy Davies would sort things out at Ibrox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
