Kevin Nisbet

The wing backs are Cadden and Guinness Walker, with the central midfielders Aramu, Ronan, and Armstrong.

Nisbet and Ntelo are the front two for Aberdeen.

Let's get back to the phones.

Hi, I will [clears throat] I'm gonna refer back to your first caller, um, the Celtic supporter who said it was a game, uh, between a team who can't score and a team who can't defend.

I know the Rangers [clears throat] have had a few clean sheets recently.

However, uh, we've rode our luck in terms of the defense because if you look at Nisbet at Aberdeen, he was just offside at that goal.

But again, we got cut open towards the end.

But who's to say that your opinion on that decision is right or my opinion when they're subjective anyway, some of them.

And John references, I mean, a Kevin Nisbet push.

That was offside anyway.

Yeah.

What

about Kevin Nisbet's pre-match? Did you see it? Right.

This was really weird because I saw the quote and was like, OK, clearly he's not...

He's either said that...

Robinson making four alterations at the break told its own story.

Aberdeen had a few forays forward, with Nesta Guinness Walker testing Viljami Sunisalo from range, Kevin Nisbet seeing a shot blocked, and Gavin Molloy hitting the bar.

In truth though, Nygren's strike, which put Celtic 2-0 ahead 34 minutes in, removed any wind from Aberdeen's sails.

Robinson knows his team will not be judged on trips to Glasgow, rather home matches, like this weekend's against Kilmarnock, are crucial for racking up points.

Yeah, Olusanya was never going to score in a month of Sundays.

Nisbet, I think, may be injured.

I'm not too sure.

It did look like he picked up a knock first half.

Do you think, I wondered as well, if he was maybe still suffering a little bit from that head knock at Parkhead and...

I mean, he wasn't really in the game at all in that first half.

I was quite excited to see if that Nisbet Maloua partnership might have flourished against a back line that has conceded left, right and centre so far this season.

But the other thing that really frustrated me in the first half was how often when we received the ball in the middle of the park, Yogan and Lewis Smith were inside.

Once again, multiple substitutions having to be made at halftime.

This one we saw Tony Ogan, Kevin Nisbet, and...

Who else came off? It's completely

escaping me now.

One thing, I never picked up on this at the game, but somebody messaged the Twitter feed about this.

I don't know if you've seen that DM that came in, but somebody in South Stand just saying that they were watching on and noticed that the three players who were substituted at halftime didn't come out, didn't sit on the bench, but instead sat or stood in the tunnel, hoodies on, hoods up, watching the game from there.

That includes our club captain, Kevin Nisbet.

For me, I don't think that's a good look by any stretch of the imagination.

Arimu gets in a mess about what the halfway line on the touchline was.

clips the ball off his own player while attempting to pass the ball back to Muller I think it is off goes Duran, Yang gets played to slot that win and it's 3-0 just before the break and that's it done and dusted there's that quadruple change at the break which saw Smith, Ronan, Osanya and Intelo on for Nisbet, Malou, Arim and Brido have I ever seen a quadruple substitution at half time before as an Aberdeen fan? I was struggling to rack my brains last night to think if that had ever happened

certainly not out with pre-season

yeah exactly I couldn't think of a time where it happened very little happened second half I mean Celtic played that basically held them at bay yeah Celtic played that pretty much at testimonial slash friendly pace Jack Milne came up for Gavin Malloy in 82 minutes full time 3-0 um The things I just want to touch about a little bit were, and I'm sorry, Stephen Robinson, we are going to talk about this, whether or not we are pundits or not.

And I think this goes back to the point that Graham mentioned, we're not seeing the sort of identity of a Sittmanen that maybe we thought we'd do.

I don't believe for a second he would have signed Chris Cadden as Sittmanen, just because he fits a breedle.

Would Kevin Nisbet play up front? We're not seeing that kind of identity within the team.

And that just comes back to, are we...
