Can I just add my disclaimer now that if Ramirez is shite then I knew he would be when I noticed he wore leggings on the hottest day of the year?!!!

To be fair to him in Aberdeen is 15 degree celsius cooler than Houston so he will be freezing. Just wait till he plays at Pittodrie in a summer day

Minnesota has far worse winters than Aberdeen.

The coldest winters in the U.S arguably.

I think he’ll cope

At the moment that looks like a squad that should* comfortably make top 6 and maybe sneak into Europe.
I realise that our support (myself included) wants much more, but this may well be the dreaded “transitional” season!


*Being the Dons of course that is never a given

No?

We haven’t been in the bottom 6 for eight years 

Even at my most pessimistic I’d never have us finishing outside the top 4 tbh 

We are aspiring to be up challenging and hence being greedy for a few more signings but if one of the strikers comes ok and scores even 15 we'll be in line with the last several years.

Two strikers in double figures would be heady days back at 2016/17 heights.

Personally I believe we have strengthened over the current window. We've removed a lot of deadwood and added some good players. I anticipate us to complete our activity with the signing of a young loanee striker from England and a winger. 

We have also added what appears to be a few key additions to our coaching staff. Overall Aberdeen are attempting to modernise its approach in all areas of the club. I'm intrigued by Gunn's comments in regards to expanding our current markets in search of new players.

Many may disagree but Glass overall inherited a decent side (clearly devoid of confidence) from McInnes. I do believe that Glass' footballing philosophy will bring out the best in our group of players including the likes of Kennedy and Ojo.

I think we'll be more then fine next season and will reiterate my previous sentiments that Glass will pleasantly shock the majority of Aberdeen fans.

Hope you’re right, but surely Ojo is done?

Reckon he’ll come to some agreement and head to England.

Brown, Ferguson, McGeouch, Campbell, McCrorie.

All ahead of him in a “2” of a 4-2-3-1.

Would be amazed if he's not. 

When he first signed he was brilliant at coming deep for the ball. Then we reverted to going long again. Once he was injured his confidence looked shot.

Brown is old, Ferguson might be leaving, McGeough gets injured, Campbell isn’t the finished article and Glass might see McCrorie as a CB. Not sure Ojo will hang around but that middle depth gets pretty thin if Ferguson leaves as well.

And you missed out the bit about Ojo being shite

I'm not entirely convinced Ferguson will leave this window. As Glass said in the interview, we are financially stable (unlike other teams in our league) and therefore are not required to sell anyone. If clubs don't meet our evaluation then Ferguson will remain an Aberdeen player. If he is sold, we'll source a decent replacement.

I'm delighted to hear Glass' remark about not signing squad fillers nor gamble players and instead opting to play the youth. I actually think we have a better player in McKenzie compared to the departed Greg Leigh. Same applies with Ramsay and Logan. 

The apathy that was present during McInnes' last few seasons is no longer and I can't wait for the new season to start.
