Goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov was the player selected to speak to the media after the game on Saturday. He was frustrated the Dons couldn’t take all three points against Falkirk after a much improved display. “It was a sore one to concede at the end. You have to give them credit, the ball in is unbelievable, and a great header, but we talked about it in the changing room, it feels like a loss today, because I thought we were really good. We were very well organised, I had two saves, but they were straight at me. We didn’t concede many chances. “After last week, for us it was really important to put on a performance that our supporters could be proud of. We wanted to win the game, we wanted to be victorious. Sometimes it’s not your day, but the most important thing is that the performance has improved. Slowly but surely, we’re going to get there. The standards of this football club are so high, and we, as players, have not met them. So, for us, it’s really important for the rest of the season, to go out there and show a team that our supporters could be proud of. “I have nothing but love towards our supporters. I do understand their frustration because the standards of this football club have not been met this season, for sure. There’s no hiding, there’s no denying it. They demand so much more. This is the pressure of playing for big clubs. As players, you either love it or you hate it. But if you hate it, that’s not your place. You have to love playing under pressure and this is how you grow as an individual and as a player.” Mitov also made it clear that the arrival of Stephen Robinson has already lifted the squad. “I’ve been a big fan of the gaffer coming in, because you can see from his previous clubs and what he’s done, with all respect, with Motherwell and St Mirren, who are not on the level with Aberdeen. Multiple cup finals, Europe, trophies also. The guy’s a winner and Aberdeen needs winners. Really happy that we managed to get him. “He has been great. I’ve been loving it. He’s coming with positive energy, you can definitely see the impact he’s already had. He cannot work miracles for two days on the training pitch, he’s trying to give us as much information as he possibly could. We’ve definitely embraced all the information we’ve been given. I’m sure the more time we have together, the more we start create more habits on the pitch, then performances and results will improve for sure. “You can see from the goal we scored from Kevin, we set up the press really well, because they use their goalkeeper a lot in the build-up. Obviously we had to take a risk and leave other people free and maybe go and press them, trying to create something. Kevin pressed really well, forced them to play that way, he nicked the ball and he scored. “That all comes from the manager, all comes from the training ground. He’s been putting that on the repeat. It’s all about doing it consistently, doing it over and over and over again. You create habits in the team and when you do that, performances turn into results and everybody’s happy. “We have to be together. When somebody does something positive on the pitch, encourage him, give high fives, because that way, the opposition team sees togetherness. They see the team are playing for each other and also fans react. Imagine somebody goes and smashes somebody, makes a good tackle and the crowd get behind you. There’s no nicer feeling in the world than this. All these little things become such an important thing to be a good team and be together.” Having dropped out of the team last month, Mitov has been at his best over the last four fixtures. He is relishing the increased competition in the goalkeeping department. “As any other player, I want to play every single game and I believe I’m a really good goalkeeper. Every time I’ve been given an opportunity to show that, I feel like I’m doing it. Sometimes decisions are not in your hands but you can’t moan or be angry about it, what you need to do is perform better. You need to go out in training and be even better. It’s a great challenge to have. We have two really good goalkeepers who are fighting for one position, which is amazing. That can only bring the best out of both of us. “I always say the goalkeeper is the most difficult position on the pitch because you get judged on everything you do. No matter what happens, somebody’s going to say, ‘He’s not doing well enough.’ But for me as a goalkeeper and my teammates and the staff, everything we’re looking into is positive and how can we improve. “As a goalkeeper, you have to be as close to perfection as possible, otherwise it will cost your team. There’s no worse feeling in the world than costing your team. But goalkeepers are also judged on how they react after making a mistake. It’s definitely a great challenge to have. I’ve never had this before in my career, so I’m definitely embracing it. I’m looking forward to many more games.”
