The Famous Aberdeen - Season 2022/23


Guest

Recommended Posts

Scott Burns is distancing Aberdeen from Griffiths now but does say Anderson and Gallagher have been offered contracts.

Also implies Taylor and Hoban will be offered deals as well which seems a surprise as most talk has been that both are definitely away.

A lot of rumours of Leigh Griffiths being in talks with us. However I've recently been told he isn't one of the 3 (not 2) internationalists MainStandMoan was talking about that has given his word to Scott Brown. Players that haven't been mentioned as of yet. Declan Gallagher has agreed to sign on but he's not one of the 3 players. I'm excited about next season.

No idea what his dons info is like but his stuff on Hibs is scattergun at best.

He's been very reliable the past few years.

On the stuff about Hoban, I can't imagine it's a case of whether we want to keep him, more if Tommy feels he's repaid us for the rehabilitation we gave him and fancies trying his hand down South again.

It's interesting if he wants to keep Taylor and Hoban while also taking in Gallagher. We've lacked a bit of depth at the back this season.

Potentially not the best news if he is keen on playing out from the back though.

Indeed. To be honest the playing out from the back makes me very nervous with the current personnel. 

I mean, big Joe is great but he's pretty shite at shelling the ball long, never mind playing the Pirlo role from his own 18 yard box.

I posted in the match thread on Saturday that I think Joe's distribution is decent. The main issue for me is he wants too long on the ball. If our defence are deeper to collect the ball from him and then pass it back it's going to increase the pressure immediately.

Nah not sure I can agree. I've felt for a couple of season that a lot of his punts end up out for a throw or nowhere generally.

I'm maybe being harsh but I think we'd agree that him, Taylor and Considine exchanging passes a long our own 18 yard line is a good way to instigate a bowel movement.
