Shape and discipline

[random sub]

Maybe Aberdeen made it easy for us but I thought our shape and discipline was excellent yesterday. It was good to watch it in operation. Similar in other games too of late.

Can’t remember where it was from but Andy Halliday said similar of our recent form. He said our shape is completely different now and we give the opposition no room to operate. Everything is immediately shut down

In the first half especially yesterday,Aberdeen had a lot of possession but just couldn’t get through us,continually having to turn back to keep possession.

My only concern re shape is that C Cadden defends a bit too centrally for my liking and their left winger has plenty of space to receive and control that Ball. Chris than has 5-10 yards to cover to get close to him.


For me, this was a bigger problem earlier in the season when we failed to stop crosses coming into our box.

It's like a lesson was learned after we went 2-0 down to Rangers, we are I believe more difficult to play against.

I think we are boring to watch and I love it. More of the same please SDG. We also press a lot quicker than we were doing earlier in the season.

Looking forward to that little bit of magic he’s hinted at to add a little bit more sparkle to our solidness

Totally agree. I think that's why it highlights so much when kwon is in there. Because he doesn't do it as well as the others

It's often said but successful teams are built by starting with the defence, 'build from the back'.

We're by no means perfect in that regard but we've only had one game from the last 10 where we've conceded more than a single goal, and that was against Der Hun.

A better team would have hurt us down that side, in his defence he was left isolated some of the time and the winger skinned him a few times.
