Does your squad need such a 'root and branch' change?

 

The squad needs investment to provide strength in depth.

 

The first 11 needs incremental improvement with the absolute necessity of a keeper which we look to have filled today.

Hopefully Joe Lewis can punch the ball

both our keeper were shite so binning them both and taking in Lewis and Alexander is a no brainer.

perhaps the centre half problems can be put down to form.

The team has outgrown Flood and a replacement for him would be good if we want to improve

 

I would have said that the team has outgrown Flood a season ago but Jack form last season is a concern and think it is better to keep Flood.

Some fresh blood in at defensive midfield would be very welcome.

Someone 6ft plus that is not afraid to put the boot in would be ideal - if they can pass too then praise the lord

Disappointed we didn't get McGovern before the euros if indeed we were interested.

yea, would rather have him than Lewis but we dont know that Lewis doesnt turn out to be a gem so we will see.

A lot of names flying about so clearly a lot going on behind the scenes

We had one superb keeper last year but he could leave at any moment as proved the case. The deputies to him were total rubbish. So a very poor position to be in. Brown shipped a goal a game for nearly 7 games in a row toward the end of last season and possibly should've been shelved after the semi against the Jutes a couple of seasons back. Alexander is a very good SPFL keeper so if Lewis is similar in standard it looks like we're certainly less vulnerable. Two 7/10 goalies is better than a 9/10 employed by others with a rake of 5/10's as back up.

As with some other posters I'm confident there's still a nugget or two of a signing to come. Deek ain't daft, he knows we fell short and it'll be tougher this year. Dons are a far more appealing club to a player than was the case even 3 years ago.

Aye. We have spread our risk which seems sensible after what happened last season. A 7/10 reliable known quantity in Scottish fitba. Plus a 7/10 who could turn out to be an 8 or a 9 if he flourishes here in the same way Ward did.

Knowing his style the fact he's said there is a few more signings to come probably translates into a couple are 90% done

Normally keeps his card close to his chest so if he had budget but nothing on the radar highly unlikely he would have made the comment

Is Robbie Mutch still with Aberdeen?has trained with us at least once since we've come back and has followed a rake of our players on Twitter. Is he highly rated at Aberdeen?

Yes still with us. Plays for development team and signed a new contract earlier this year.

Sounds like he's heading your way on loan then!

Certainly very much still in the plans
