The Dons controlled the ball but lost by three goals on the counter. Slobodan Rubezic was responsible for two goals in the first half from Toyosi Olusanya and Mickael Mandron, the latter of whom scored a third to complete the victory.
Thelin remarked, “Today is difficult.” “We are playing a lot of games right now, and before the game, we feel like we are getting better, and the team is getting better, and then you get the outcome like that.”
Everyone finds it difficult, including me and the supporters. As the manager, it is my responsibility to find a different approach to balance the team so that we are not overexposed to the scenarios.
I haven’t spoken to Slobodan yet to find out if he has an injury, but he indicated that he wanted a change. I will back our players no matter what, but I will do that after this press conference.
Stephen Robinson, the manager of St. Mirren, commended his team’s defensive play as they defeated the Dons handily to snap a four-game losing streak.
“We’ve had a lot of good performances in recent weeks, but our set-piece defense was the big plus for me,” Robinson stated. In the air, Zach [Hemming] was in control.
“The strikers will get all the plaudits, rightly so, but for me as a manager, the reason we’re not higher up the table has been our defending from set-plays in the second phase.
“We defended for our lives today, we rely on Zach to come and dominate and that’s what he’s done, and that gives us a platform to play from. And then some of the quality from the front two, they dominated the game and caused real, real problems for Aberdeen.”
