'Doom & gloom' after Aberdeen blunted again
"Aberdeen don't do enough. They aren't creative enough and they don't look like they've got a player with the instinct to be in the right place at the right time. "It's concerning. No goals, one point, bottom of the table - the pressure is coming on very strongly. It's doom and gloom at Pittodrie.""
"The Pittodrie outfit have won just five Scottish Premiership games in 31 since November 2024. The signings of Kevin Nisbet, Stuart Armstrong, and Bologna winger Jesper Karlsson at the tail end of the transfer window had brightened the mood around the club, but that optimism had dissipated by full-time on Saturday. Karlsson and Nisbet both started against Livingston, with Armstrong brought on as a second-half substitute, but Aberdeen lacked a cutting edge and were booed off by the home supporters that remained."
""As a player and a manager at Aberdeen, we have really strong expectations," he said. "We have to give the fans more to get a good feeling. Right now, the team is struggling a little bit. "The pressure is always there. We have had a really bad start, but we have to keep working and keep believing. The only way to get out of this is take it step by step. "This season is not over yet. We know we don't have enough points so far. We have to perform better.""
Aberdeen produced a goalless draw with Livingston and remain bottom with one point after a poor start to the season. The team has won five Premiership matches in 31 since November 2024 and suffers from a lack of creativity and goals. New signings Kevin Nisbet, Stuart Armstrong and Jesper Karlsson failed to spark improvement and home fans booed off the team. Willie Miller sharply criticized the lack of cutting edge and instinct in attack. Manager Jimmy Thelin acknowledged pressure, emphasized work and belief, and faces a must-win cup tie against Motherwell amid concerns over sloppy goals conceded.
