I cannot stand them. Horrible club, awful stadium and awful fans.

I really want us to beat them and show them up, our record against them lately has been nowhere near good enough and we need to really kick on now and start competing with them.

The majority of their starting line up will be over 6 ft - Lewis, Taylor, McKenna, Considine, Ferguson, Vyner, Leigh and Cosgrove are all big guys so we will need to be very wary of set pieces.

It will be a tough game, physical and we will be made to defend long balls and a high press which doesn’t suit us unfortunately.

For me, wide men will be important to stop the ball coming into box so easily as if we play narrow Logan and Considine will chuck it in at every opportunity.

Logan is there to be got at as is Taylor, both are prone to errors and are clumsy.

We need to get our game plan and mentality spot on for this one.

I don't expect to know everything that is going on but in the modern hibs.net world we entertain ourselves by discussing such things online and spout our theories based on what we know, what we don't know and what we might reasonably expect to happen
People idiotically getting annoyed because the club don't tell us everything is a completely different matter and i have never been in that camp.

Nah.

To be honest, this is the team I expected him to start with in his first game. It accommodates our best players and I think it is intuitively what most people who don't watch Hibs would pick as being our best team.

We've had experience of watching it in practice and it doesn't work. I reckon Ross had to learn that for himself at some point, why not today.

Aberdeen’s midfield is utter mince and caused us no problems up there.

Really bizarre to arrive and see a steward refusing Darren McGregor access with his car because the turnstiles are open. Not a brilliant idea to be late but we actively allow cars to travel through the crowds to park between the East/ FF

Really concerned about the midfield.

Slivka and Hallberg have added bite and protection.

Allan not being playing well so not sure why it wasn’t a straight swap.

Anyway..we can’t have a go saying we are defensive but except goals.

Hanlon is the weakest link in defence he has been responsible for so many goals we have lost this season (and others) and like you, I don’t see how he can keep his place.

i hope I am wrong but he could repeat the process again today!

echo some of the sentiments. Allan, Mallan and Boyle v the big nasty sheep.
Can't understand for the life of me Mallan in and Slivka out. That's a lot of mobility to give up in the middle. Don't think Slivka deserves to be dropped and Mallan was poor for me coming on v Killie.
Hope to be wrong but got the fear. Kamberi, Doidge, Mallan, Allan, Boyle all attacking. Good luck Melker

Slivka and bite don’t belong in the same sentence. I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised last Saturday he was great, never looked like producing that performance in all the times I have watched him. Apparently back to usual today n Wednesday, JR probably picked up on that.

I've never bee a great Hanlon fan, but IMO our defensive woes are not all down to him, or Lewis for that matter - it's a collective thing (a team thing) and - anyway - we don't have anyone to really come in and replace these guys ...

Mallan is good at what he does, but in that defensive midfield role any midfielder in the top 3 leagues in Scotland would relish coming up against him.

He just doesn’t have what it takes to play there, especially against one of the better and most importantly more physical sides in the league.

Both have played well so far. Hanlon lost the initial header then Porteous seemed caught in 2 minds. Beyond that they are dealing with Cosgrove well. If they aren't winning the 1st ball we are winning the 2nd.

Yes and no. Definitely on top for the vast majority of the half but have we managed a shot on target? Our best chance fell in the first 5 minutes or so.

Mallan and Alan have looked alright together but Alan needs to be getting on the ball more.

Hanlon has misread the flight of the ball a few times now and needs to be more decisive.

Credit to Marciano. Had a moment of indecisiveness himself but has made a few good saves that has kept us in it.

About time an Aberdeen player picked up a yellow too. Bit daft of someone to throw a drink at him though.

Hibs 60% pocession. Thought Mallan better than useless. Constant fouling from Aberdeen. Rocky had ropey pass but great shot stopping. Also rolling ball out as JR has probably noticed his kicking is poor.

McInnes moaning and moaning and moaning every time a foul is given against them...seriously how can someone moan so much when they are getting away with constant fouls and one solitary yellow? What fud he is.

Hibs half decent in flashes. Usual problems though, too light weight in midfield, defence exposed too often and Hanlon all over the place. Porto playing very well though.

My half glass full head sees a 1-0 Aberdeen all over this game but hope I’m wrong!

Quite an open game - Aberdeen reverting to type with systematic fouling but nobody really on top. A few errors gifting Aberdeen incentive at times but defence managing to redeem things.
A lot of our play is ending up with Stevenson delivering the cross but none of which have proved dangerous. Need to improve that final ball and we can find a way past them.
Decent enough game.

I wish Stevenson would drive forward with the ball more as there's been a lot of space down that wing.
