Ross McCrorie is still raging almost a week on from Aberdeen ’s worst performance of the season. That 4-0 defeat at Tannadice on Saturday night, topped off by an own goal from the midfielder that typified the entire display, has been put to bed during a week of training at Cormack Park ahead of Hearts’ visit tomorrow.
But it hasn’t been forgotten, that’s for sure, and McCrorie reckons the only way to get it out of their system is to come away from Pittodrie with three points this weekend. “We all know it wasn’t good enough, the performance wasn’t anywhere near the standards of Aberdeen,” he said. “It was just a bad day at the office, we have done the analysis and we know what we have to do for the Hearts game this weekend.”
The 24-year-old is delighted to be back at Pittodrie, where Aberdeen’s form has been the polar opposite of many of their displays on road. They’ve taken five off Livingston and four from Kilmarnock at home and McCrorie is looking for more of the same against Hearts after their midweek exertions in Europe.
