Strange cardoso is fit enough to be on the bench.

Cardosso is not the same type as Alves  he doesn’t attack the ball he is a second CD similar to the two Wilson’s  it was either move McCrorrie back or play Bates Murty has done the sensible thing here and kept McCrorrie in midfield to protect the back four and allow holt and jack to break forward

Mcrorie was outstanding on Wednesday. Hopefully proves to be the sensible decision to keep him there instead of switching it about.

It worked well on Wed, but I'd like to see a few games before calling it a success.

Actualy off today for a change so looking forward to watching this

So Bates will be our dominant CH today over Wilson who will take the secondary role??

Bates isn’t as bad as it’s being made out. He has had more good games than bad for us and while he is shite with the ball at his feet he is a decent defender.

If they score today Bates will be the reason for it , guys a fuckin donkey.

He certainly splits opinion in here. Remember a thread in the summer all sorts of excuses were made for him.

I really don't rate him but at same time think it's a helluva challenge to make season debut up there. 

If I was the sheep I'd target him and Tav at the right side of our defence.

At least Greg Stewart is playing 

Weird that he has been so poor.

They’re definietely going for it more today. Wright, May, Rooney & Stewart. Luckily Rooney has zero pace and Bates should hopefully be able to deal with him easily.

Fucking Bates. He’s absolutely shite. 

Calm down FFS. We've had far worse defenders than Bates.

Substitutes: Alnwick, Cardoso, Hodson, Barjonas, Candeias, Herrera, Morelos.

Wouldn't go as far as saying it was a strong bench, but its certainly better than what we've had in recent times. 

Good to see Morelos on there, could cone in handy if it's still a tight game by 60mins, which I expect it will be.

Bates will attack the ball in the air ,which is Aberdeens strong point.Murty has said Cardoso is apprehensive with high balls at the moment and is working on gaining confidence.dont think Murty has much choice here imo
