Absolutely great seeing an Aberdeen team that can press collectively, has players in position to counter-press, actually tries to do that against Celtic, and when they win the ball doesn’t immediately shell it up the channel. This is what a well coached team looks like 😍😍😍
It’s sooo good 😭. Non-Aberdeen/Scottish football fans might not understand this, but Dons just went from a smart compact 433 in their own half, getting a man extra in wide areas, Celtic have no options, the ball has to go back. Abdn then squeeze up, Clarkson bites…
… the ball has to go back, the team shifts up and then Joe Hart decides to clear the ball long cos of the pressure… and Aberdeen have the ball. I’m not joking when I say I have never ever seen this very simple out of possession approach before in a game against Celtic 😂
Honestly don’t worry about the Celtic counter attacks. They’ll end up winning cos they have great individual players on big money, or silly mistakes like Devlin’s. I’m enjoying just being genuinely competitive, looking like we’ve analysed and worked on the opposition
The Aberdeen goalie just played a 30 yard pass under pressure to find one of the midfielders and start a counter 🥹
