Don’t think so, I’d be dropping one of the centre halves though. We lost the first ball at every set piece at the weekend, a McInnes side will be all over that. Rowles is in better form of the two and a bit quicker so bring the caravan tower in for snakey Kent IMO.
I don’t think we should mix it up as much as that but the odd rotation to keep the team fresh and rest players when needed is vital given the amount of games.

When did they last go 12 games unbeaten with 11 wins to start a season? They will beat Rangers to go 13 unbeaten btw, bank that.
I think fans, players and managers in Scotland need to take this Aberdeen side a bit more seriously than they are TBH. Approach it as one of the OF coming to visit.

Aye true, give them a 2 goal head start then remember it's Aberdeen and come back to fuck them 4-2.
Don't think it's controversial to say they're having a good season when they're joint top with 8 wins from 9 there's only so long you can say it's down to an easy start and riding luck and all that. They're nothing special though obviously and we shouldn't go into a home game against them especially with any fear.
They've had a good start, many times have we came out the blocks flying and ended up having just an awrite season, I can see the same happening with them, they've scraped a lot of wins along the way, they will turn in to draws and defeats as the season goes on.
They've won every game by the odd goal. Ourselves, Celtic and Dundee should have beat them. I'm not begrudging them the start they’ve had, but they are hardly blowing teams away. These sneaky wins will turn in to draws and defeats, very soon.

The last time we had a start that matched their start this season was 2005?
Trust me, I want them to start losing as much as anyone - my brother in law is an Aberdeen fan that is enjoying mentioning how the league is looking right now.
However, just kidding on they are terrible team and the wheels will fall off is just pure copium. I hope the manager and players don’t have this attitude for when Aberdeen come to Tynecastle because they will stroll it if that’s the attitude.
BTW - every Aberdeen win/draw makes this situation worse so I hope they start losing and soon.
