Dismal December continues for the Dons as they head down to the capital to face Hibernian at Easter Road this Tuesday, kicking off at 1945 hours.

Hibs are three points ahead of us and a 6-0 away win will be enough for us to leapfrog them into fifth. However, I can see us giving away soft goals, not getting anywhere near their box and getting pumped 0-3.

Bowie allegedly ill 🤔

Where is the width coming from in our team. Are moving Aouchiche out wide. 

Hope to fuck we manage to change the norm here and actually start providing the strikers with some service. Oh, and not shitting the bed. 

Here's the shape ... according to BBC.

Looks correct. Lazetic tends to play further forward than Nisbet does, it's more akin to a 3-4-3 when he's there, although he has recently been pushing on a bit. I expect Kjartansson will sit behind Aouchiche for large parts, with the latter pressing a bit higher, as that's what they do when Polvara is there.

Jensen really should have scored there

Aye. Good to see him getting in there though. He just mistimed the run slightly.

stream frozen - back on

My imagination or Karlsson cut out the show boating and being ultra cautious tonight 🤔

Hopefully nothing trivial for the weird haired one 😉

We look reasonable in the middle of the park. Kjartansson has been decent.

BBC now has us as a 3-5-2. I've only got that to go on tonight, on steam-powered Internet in the far northern wastelands. There's whisky though, so every cloud 

Ah well,2 evenly average sides.some disjointed and some decent attacking play from us.

& a horrendous amount of senseless passing around at the back as usual

Aye, Armstrong is dropping in quite a bit, generally just buzzing about everywhere. He's a bit of a liability in midfield at times though! Kjartansson playing on their number 22, with Aouchiche on Mulligan when they've got the ball. 

Karlsson been good, must've heard me slagging him off. Working hard. 

Good even game. Neither side sitting in, but both quite cagey. 

Not sure Kjartansson will have the ninety in him. Expect him to be off around the hour. He's been okay.

It's an attempt to draw the other team out. It's fine. We've kept it well generally. 

Very solid first half I would say.  Wishwee would stop faffing about so much when we get forward.  KK is doing great, same with Gyamfi.

Tombola.

Not really. The same formation we play every week, with most players playing in the correct location. 

They are definitely at the correct location. Easter Road.
 

But 4 changes plus a different formation = a tombola. 

If side way and back passing is your thing then that was some half.

 usually followed by a punt by Mitov to the opposition

If only we had the players to play through teams 

Shinnie's 5' 9",Kjartan looked 2" or 3" taller as they passed...👀

Agreed, but he ran his arse off against Utd and was tiring towards the end. One game a week from him is more than enough. 

Aye, was breathing out his arse on Saturday. 

His gametime needs managed. 

Ach fuck  

Here we go again. We are so weak at the back.
