However we resisted and then got the 2nd so... Really? Championship players with tired legs after 80mins football in 11 Days - might explain why we have so many injuries if this is our level of fitness. Link to comment
ashton_fan Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Thought we did ok today apart from that lapse of concentration just before half-time. Hope we don't lose Diedhiou this month. Link to comment

Yeah the tiredness thing really bugs me - these are supposedly elite level athletes earning serious money. Today of all days given the amount of time off, that should not be an excuse at all.

Numero Uno Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Just now, Bar BS3 said: Portsmouth hadn't conceded a single goal in their previous 5 games. Winning 4 out of the 5. Did people really expect us to have it all our own way today..? The other thing is you see what a difference Mawson makes and he was rightly subbed on 65 so that he can play in the next far more important league game. If he stays fit and Holden plays Dave up top we will be fine, not great but fine. Palmer, Adelakun and Pring on the bench will also give us more than the likes of Towler, Pearson and Bell with respect to them lads. Link to comment
bcfc01 Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Barely deserved win thanks to poor finishing from Portsmouth and good goalkeeping from Bentley. Good first half, and well on top second half - up to the time of the subs.... Plus points; Mawson back and looking good Kalas on form Bakinson on form Nagy on form Diedhiou looing good early on Martin had a good game Minus points; Semenyo (especially first half) playing with his head down, no composure Marriappa - we missed Hunt Adelakun was anonymous, but cut him some slack as he's effectively a newbie to the team - but he has to do more The substitutions put us on the back foot, introduced panic at the back, loss of possession and territory, which in turn led to sloppy passes. The subs were just plain naive at a time we were well on top. That, for me, was the biggest minus point of the game. Portsmouth deserved more from that game, but their finishing let them down. Ah well, thats how it goes and we sneak into the 4th round. Link to comment
StefanDimz Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Thought Adelakun had a decent game. Good Alfie's back. COYR Link to comment

How about the fact that we didn’t keep dropping like a stone when the opposition (ie us) had possession The number of times play was stopped for non head injuries and at one point when we were in procession and play called back it restarted with Portsmouth in possession!

tin Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Just now, JonDolman said: I actually thought Vyner helped change the game. He looked really good I thought in midfield. Not a lot to go on, but Aberdeen fans seemed to like him in centre mid more than right back, and more than the one apparently awful game he had at centre back for them. With Mawson back, Vyner in midfield is an option with our lack of options in midfield. Yeah, I liked his midfield cameo today as well. The only time he had to defend, he missed a header that almost led to them equalising. Remove some of those defensive duties and he’s comfortable on the ball enough to play further forward. Whether he’s good enough to dislodge others if the squad ever gets fully fit, we don’t know. Link to comment
maxjak Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 I thought we were absolutely fine until Mawson went off.........and then the substitutions seemed to disrupt us? We still need a better presence in midfield, as we seem to get over run at times. I thought Portsmouths goal was very fortunate/unlucky, as we had no problem with their attack until then, we did fade quite badly in the last half hour, but for all Portsmouths good approach play, they were not that great up front, and then a bit of class by Martin won it for us. Best three players on the pitch were Mawson, Kalas and Semenyo IMHO. Would like Arsenal home in the 4th round please? Link to comment

Can pass, good in the air, pretty quick, gives a simple pass. Link to comment

YGBjammy Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Mawson makes this team so much better. Solid at the back and great passer, what more could you want in a modern CB at our level? Glad he's back. Link to comment
