Edit: a Dundalk native who has played for England under 18s.   Interesting.

We’ll see him and Hedges on either wing IMO

"Jon operates as a right back but can play in a number of positions."

soon find out.

Interesting one but as i've never heard of him and never seen him play i'd like to state that this is a cracking signing.

ETA: Scottish football fans really don't like McKenna, do they?

 

 

Simple jealousy. The same guys on here that have been saying that David Turnbull is being underpriced by Motherwell, also say that Scott McKenna is being overpriced by Aberdeen.

He's pretty good and I hope Aberdeen get as much money as possible for him, but I don't think he's good enough on the ball for Celtic or a team of that ilk.

He's better on the ball than a lot give him credit for. He's asked to play a lot of direct diagonal balls by McInnes. At Celtic he'd have a lot more time on the ball  it is a fair criticism though.

No. Purely because he isn't a good passer and looks a bit clumsy. But the lad can defend quite well. Needs to head down to England and get some time under his belt playing with a good, experienced partner.

Why, none of their current centre halves are particularly good on the ball and not like Boyata spread the ball about like Beckenbauer either?

He's nowhere close to being a GMS replacement. I suspect this one is as much about nurturing relationships as it is anything else. Good luck to the boy, and I might be pleasantly surprised, but I'm expecting just a few token appearances.

Happy the Celtic bid rejected, should be avoiding selling to either of the Glasgow 2 at all costs for any player unless he’s crap.

in reference to a previous post, mckennna is reasonable on the ball and certainly not hopeless when in possession.

Ajer can play but he's suspect at the defensive side of things.

McKenna and Ajaer would probably be the perfect pair, have strengths relating to the others weaknesses. 

Hopefully Aberdeen milk Celtic fucking dry if they're determined to get him.

Yeah I think you're spot on with the first point.
