big al Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Have to agree with Bob. Considine, McGinn, Hayes, McLennan, Kennedy and the 3 loan strikers not cutting it. Undecided on Hoban as well. Campbell get a season on loan at a full time club to see if he can improve, possibly McClennan as well. The team is so static when in possession and have been all season. Garner mentioned a few times last night about no movement ahead, so no alternative but to play side ways or backwards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Connor McLennan must surely be made to look at Boyle and see what a fast heid-down player with little technical ability can actually become. Nisbet never seems to do anything against us, but has clearly been an astute signing. I recall us being linked with Doidge when he was at Forest Green, and he landed up at Hibs a year or so later, following a move to financially-hamstrung Bolton. Agree in most of what's been said - a lot of new players having to fit into a new playing philosophy could be a recipe for a really tough season. Out of the loan players, the one I'd still like to take a punt on is Hornby. Full pre-season and working with Allan Russell - there must be a player in there given he's coming from the EPL and Ligue 1. The days of us managing out 1-0 wins like Hibs were able to do last night may not ending up feeling so 'turgid' as a lot of our fans seem to want to label them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were interested in Doidge but he ended up choosing Bolton instead. He got severely fucked about there. We had our eggs in the Cosgrove basket by that point. Turgid football is still turgid football though. Shithousing a win every so often is satisfying. Having to watch it every week, not so much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of them wanted rid of him. Boyle as well is not an outstanding player, but has had the best season of a (fairly average) career. They have some decent players, especially up front, but have benefited hugely from a season where they've pretty much had no disruption at all to the strongest XI (at least compared with Aberdeen). It's obvious that at this moment Hibs are a better team than us, but I doubt if they'll be as fortunate next season to have so few disruptions to their side. 4 hours ago, Merkland Red said: Martin Boyle is such a limited footballer but he's got raw attributes that will always give you a chance in Scottish football. He's ridiculously quick. If I was Hibs I'd be looking to cash in soon because when the pace goes they'll have a less talented version of the Jonny Hayes we've got. 4 hours ago, Melanius Mullarkey said: f**k Edinburgh 1 hour ago, tarapoa said: Connor McLennan must surely be made to look at Boyle and see what a fast heid-down player with little technical ability can actually become.

DukDukGoose Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I remember when Hibs had a couple of decent posters in the football forum. Looks like we're left with the dregs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all respect bud, this is the part of the forum where Aberdeen fans discuss all things Aberdeen, for good and for bad. Some of that will involve comparing other sides to our own. Normally you're a decent poster but you're making yourself look like a bit of a t1t. If you have nothing to contribute then maybe you should f**k off to the match thread and post yer wee boy gifs in there.

Rodhull Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 With Moult getting released at Preston you have to imagine McInnes will be desperate to get a job so he can attempt to sign him once again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
