Took McLean a wee while to feel a part of things at Norwich. Cocu uses U23 fixtures to keep players ticking over and get a look at them...........big deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Personally, it has been great to see guys like Jaap Stam and Sami Hyypia move on to better things and I've no doubt it will happen for Zander too." Fantastic quote above from JC. A mere seven years later he did of course leave Aberdeen for the lofty heights of Oldham. At least we removed a cancer from our club when he left Such a fucking typical Jimmy quip 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does. Only Cosgrove and Rooney go against that, while two other strikers in your squad (Main, May), plus previous signings (Maynard, Stockley, Storey, Nuttall, Goodwillie and Zola) suggest his record with signing strikers if poor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Dundee guys are desperate. If Big Sam leaves for Lazio, there’s no chance of Scott Wright leaving us, so tough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're apparently planning on a move for Morgan or Hayes if they can get rid of May. Would imagine a winger come in then shoves Wright towards the door. In other words, it depends on us being competent enough to get a deal done for May. I apologise in advance for the disappointment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t include Main in that list. He’s played one full match since signing. And just remember that before a Big Sam came to us, he’d scored one career goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologise in advance for the disappointment. tbh I think he'd be good enough and have aspirations for a top flight team in any case if he was allowed to leave and we've also just signed McPake and then have Billy King still training who looks like he'll sign so I think we've probably given up on it already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarre post. Rooney and Cosgrove were signed for zilch and have been the 2 most prolific strikers in the SPL outside the OF in the last 5 years. And yet you drag up names that most Dons fans have forgotten in a hopeless attempt to say that McInnes's record is poor. I'll let you into a secret, and try not to be shocked. Every single manager in world football, since the beginning of time, has signed players who didn't succeed at their club. McInnes is no different......well, apart from the fact that he has signed the 2 most prolific strikers in the SPL outside the OF in the last 5 years. Why have you got such a hard-on about all of this ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was you who randomly brought it up, I've made one post on the subject. 80% of his striking signings have been failures. You can twist it whatever way you want, but to me that means his record is poor. Again, its who you brought this into a conversation, not me, before you start this "obsessed chat" shite instead of actually replying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) Including Nuttal is a bit random too. Signed as a youth player and was only ever treated as such before he left. Every manager is a failure if you include all the youth players that don't make it. Edited August 20, 2019 by Rodhull 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very early days of course but wouldn't be surprised if he is potentially loaned out in January, whether it's back up here or to another side down south. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I will, maybe I won’t. It’s called giving a new signing a chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
