Dundee played well and on that surface and will give teams trouble all season.
Disappointed we only showed up for a 25mins spell 2nd half out of the 90. Mixed bag from too many players. Bit slack at times and never created enough clean cut chances even our goals were two belters (dont know who's was better probs Nico)
Was concerned that too many think we've made it after some great results recently. Nice to be humbled every now again. Hopefully we don't need that too often this season.
But still unbeaten in 8 now is it, and a point could be very valuable at the end of the season and there is a long long way to go yet. Not carried away with a poor perfomance and same for a good one. Would like more control in games and bit more ruthlessness but it'll come.
Tarts v Tim's tomorrow hope they both get beat 😂.

I agree, but my only concern with the performance overall is Fernandez and Neil who don't seem to be learning.
Fernandez slows the game down constantly and invites pressure, he's also being targeted by the opposition who know he's got multiple mistakes in him.
Neil just can't cope with the pace of the game when it's stretched and when the opposition get physical he shrinks.
We need to find answers to these two issues and find them quickly.

I'd love to see Godfrey getting a run of tans instead of Fernandez.

You're 100 correct ehl. His passing is so poor.

Don, t agree with you EHL on Neil he, s a good player as he's proved the last few games, fernandes is a good footballer too but as you say subject to being caught out trying to prove it, that's why he's put under pressure by the opposition, McInnes will sort it out.

Fernadez been at Rangers long enough to know
Not be surprosed if we got an offer in january we take it
Dan neil the only time he performed was against Celtic in the cup that's only because their midfield was a no show.

Yes EHL I totally agree with your take on these positions its bothered me for weeks now. D. Neil has all the attributes apart from physicality and I have some questions over his engine, particularly when its backs to the wall stuff. His execution is questionable when under pressure defensively and it was highlighted in his mistake last night. Good enough player but you need more than that up here.
Fernandez frustrates the life outta me, again all the attributes to be very good. Unfortunately he is so casual and if I was striker I'd love to play against him. You know he will take another touch, you know he isn't commanding enough for a guy of his physical stature and if you press him he doesn't read danger well enough or realise to just clear the ball up the park, always overplays and like you say its not just one mistake a game there are multiple mistakes in every 90mins. He just creates uncertainty and you can't have that in your backline.
I would like to see Godfrey get a shot and I would love to see Vanja actually get some minutes. But still early in the season. And I back McInnes to find the solutions I just hope he is not too loyal to the wrong players which can happen. But Del is a clever man and I'm sure he will see it.
