'No crisis' at Aberdeen despite difficult start - Nisbet

[SNS] Aberdeen captain Kevin Nisbet insists there is no "crisis" at Pittodrie after back-to-back Scottish Premiership defeats to Rangers and Celtic. They head into Saturday's league visit of bottom club Kilmarnock looking to return to winning ways after last weekend's 1-0 home loss to Rangers and a 3-0 midweek reverse at champions Celtic. The Dons, who will also play Killie in the quarter-finals of the League Cup the following week, have won one of their opening four leagues. And Nisbet remains optimistic about what the Dons can achieve this term. "We have got a lot of quality in there," the striker said. "We are well drilled, even though we conceded three against Celtic, but in the main we are a well drilled organised side, I think you have seen that over the games. "For us it is about sticking together now, it is not a crisis because we lost two games. We have got a long season ahead of us so we can't get ourselves down too much. "It is about focussing on the present now rather than focussing on the past and just trying to get ready for tomorrow." Nisbet, 29, has an added responsibility this season having been made skipper and has "loved every minute of it". "Off the park and on the park, every time I walk out for each game it is an honour and a privilege to wear the armband for Aberdeen," he added.
