Jim Goodwin has failed on Aberdeen defensive promise as ropey rearguard undoes attacking thrills
Aberdeen can forget about a third-place finish in the Premiership this season if they continue to give away cheap goals. For all the plaudits the Pittodrie boss Jim Goodwin has earned for the 28 goals that his new look Dons side have netted so far in the Premiership this season, it's the Dons defensive frailties that continue to let them down and particularly on the road. After his first game in charge of the Pittodrie side back in February, which ended in a 1-1 draw with Motherwell at Fir Park, Goodwin vowed that he would “iron out” those defensive problems in a few weeks.
