'No leaders in this squad' - your views on defeat to County

We asked for your views on Aberdeen's 2-1 home defeat against Ross County.

Here's what some of you said:

Stephen: After Aberdeen's incredible start to the season there were some big clubs circling Jimmy Thelin with interest. I think it's a stroke of genius to deliberately get such miserable results in order to keep him and preserve the long-term plan - but it's time to stop taking it too far now, lads.

James: A new defender is vital or else the season will continue in a downward spiral. The current frontline seem useless at converting any chances that come their way. The manager will only get the supporters backing for not much longer, but I still believe he will be a success.

Kevin: We are plummeting to the bottom six like a sack of tatties being thrown into the sea. Either the players can't play to the boss' tactics or the players aren't good enough. Still waiting for Cormack Park to bear fruits, just not happening yet.

Stuart: Still no leaders in this squad. Go get a couple decent defenders and a hard-working midfielder. Lyall Cameron from Dundee is available soon. Yesterday was unacceptable again.

Bo: Have to question Aberdeen players' character and mentality. Did they have a great start with a new manager? Yes. But they also did the same when Barry Robson came in and then downed tools. We still have a lot of those same charlatans. Clear them all out, Jimmy.

Mattie: Why are coaches scared to change formation? County played five in midfield against our two. A simple 4-4-2 formation would have made us tough to beat while also having two strikers against their three defenders. We are getting found out because we have no plan B. I like Thelin, but he has to be more adept tactically and not become a slave to one system.
