"The abject loss was their second in as many matches in the competition and leaves them bottom of the 36-team table. "Jimmy Thelin's got to address this and not cover it up," said Miller on Sportsound. "He's got to tell the fans that this wasn't good enough. "He can maybe make the case that they're learning at this level but at the same time he needs to address that this simply hasn't been good enough.""
"AEK had 27 shots on goal over the 90 minutes -10 of which were on target. As a point of comparison, Aberdeen had eight overall and only two on target. AEK touched the ball 43 times in Aberdeen's box, compared to 13 for their visitors. The Greek side had a passing accuracy of 91% (compared to 77%) and made far more passes - 609 to 178."
