Aberdeen struggles with scoring as fans voice frustration with Stephen Robinson
Summary

Aberdeen recorded a fourth consecutive Scottish Premiership match without a goal following a draw against Kilmarnock at Pittodrie. The result leaves the club with only one league win through five matches this season. Head coach Stephen Robinson characterized his squad's performance as tired and lethargic after the stalemate. Aberdeen has struggled with offensive production, recording the third-lowest expected goals total in the league and the fewest shots on target. Captain Kevin Nisbet, who has scored 10 goals in cup competitions, failed to provide a scoring threat during the recent match. Former defender Richard Foster noted that the current team lacks the energy and creative identity seen in previous sides under Robinson’s management.
