It was incredibly easy but I thought we were pretty sloppy. To win 5-0 is different class but I didn't think we were particularly sharp. Snodgrass especially in the middle was all over the place at time giving the ball away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Kaiser Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Just home. I genuinely thought at times we weren't particularly good and actually gave the ball away too often. Collum didnt help with the constant whistle blowing whenever a Don's player got the slightest touch in the first half. That said...absolutely clinical with our finishing. Thought Aberdeen were the better team up until we scored and then they capitulated. Aberdeen actually looked ok in the middle of the pitch for chunks of the game but their defending was woeful and just no final ball. Smith was man of the match for me. Even though Duk was clearly a lot faster just had him in his pocket tonight. Slightly disappointed Gino didnt stay on to get a go at the hat trick but Injury free for Sunday dictates otherwise. 5-0 against the supposed rivals for 3rd and didnt play well at times......love it! Think there's another hiding for another team to come before the season ends. Edited January 18, 2023 by Der Kaiser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger Rudi Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Loved Zander's reaction when he thought we had conceded, he was apoplectic!! Great to get another clean sheet on the board. Great result all round. Sibbick another saving tackle at one end & a worldie pass for the goal. Get him on a longer contract, the boy is strolling games of late. Different class. Ginelly must be kept too, he was well up for that tonight. Good performances all over the pitch. My apologies to Smith too, I'm going to shut my mouth from now on, what a game he had! Only slight negative, ffs Snodgrass get a grip of yourself before Sunday mate, sharpen up & cut out the slack passes! Devlin back to form & Hill following up with another great performance, wins so much in the air! Its good to be a Jambo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyCant Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 1 minute ago, best in the land said: Thought sibbick and hill both played brilliant tonight. Probably rowles was our weakest defender and he wasn't bad either. Snodgrass wasn't great though but rest of team were good but have played better and can play better. Aberdeens whole game plan was to swamp Snodgrass. They didn’t account for Devlin returning to form or Sibbick firing a 60 yard missile in to Smith. Or Ginelly opening his bag of amazing soccer tricks. Snodgrass taking the heat allowed us to play. Yes he lost easy possession a few times when he just wanted too much time but St Mirren had made the tactic work quite well. Teams have a decision to make now. Man mark him deep and stop him running the game or leave him and hope he doesn’t. He’s a tremendous player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waterboy Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Quite a few individuals had great games, Smith, Hill and Sibbick come to mind. We've played a hell of a lot better than that, to be 4 0 up at half time was incredible. Snodgrass and Devlin with some hospital passes, and also losing it high up the park when they're both up there isn't ideal. Absolutely take it though, brings confidence for Sunday.

Sibbick has been a big part of that so hope he is okay but caps of to Zander and Hill for coming in and improving us. Midfield seems to struggle a bit at times and 1st 20 mins we hadn’t worked out how to get forward and put pressure on their defence. But my word, once we figured that out we were just clinical. More to come from this Hearts team too! Yip, Sibbick was managed very well, taken out and as struggling, came back in and has been brialliant. Hills looks a cut above at 19 and Rowles has also been solid. Smith at RB and Cochrane e at lb also gives us great balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Hill in particular was different class tonight. The finishing tonight was also superb. I differ slightly, I thought we were lucky not to concede a couple tonight. Which was down to some luck, and poor finishing from Aberdeen. As I was taught a longtime ago. No two supporters see the same game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Grant positively impacted the game tonight and thought he could have brought on Yoda a bit earlier - but hey ho, not a big deal. 3 points, a clean sheet and looking much better for third.... well done the JT's for such an important win.
