lubo_blaha Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Van Bastenesque finish from McGinn in that USA friendly. His three goals this season have come against Bosnia & Herzegovina, USA and St. Mirren. An eclectic mix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what I thought. Would be a honkin waste of money. Much rather persevere with MacKenzie for the rest of this season, and make a call in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anotherchance Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Still think we could be done with another or leader or two though, especially given there'll be more younger lads getting game time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Brown and Declan Gallagher (supposedly will be announced soon) are leaders/captains. Both are definite upgrades on what we have/had. Taylor (POTY) was not a leader nor was Devlin, Ojo or any of the guys currently set to leave. We became far too soft in McInnes' last few seasons. We need some nasty individuals in the side. On a side note, I'd happily take Leigh Griffiths. If we could also sign (within our means) one of Kamberi or Watkins to play alongside him - that would be as good a forward line as I've seen since supporting Aberdeen (1998). The reality is we'll most likely see Bruce Anderson partnering up front with someone yet to be rumoured. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a non scorer who excelled in a particular role of which we didn't sign him to play in the first place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was class in that system but if we're looking to move forward under a new manager then I don't think a 30 year old Watkins is the answer. Especially when the first two expected signings (Brown already here plus Gallagher) have a combined age of 65. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'd be turning my nose up at a forward, available for free, who we know improved the team considerably and was instrumental in the best football we played earlier this season 30 years old is hardly career over. ETA - if that's too many old players, bin Gallagher. Edited March 29, 2021 by Dons_1988 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
