I believe so, someone has painstakingly worked it out from the very first match played in the Scottish Cup in 1873 until now. It appears we have won it on 85 occasions, for a total of 332 matches, most recently in May this year after we beat Hibs. Now, do we hold the title or do Aberdeen B'?

I really, really don't want to be that guy that writes off a player before he has even kicked a ball for Aberdeen. But I wish I could unsee that video. As @Ajja says, he runs into trouble a lot and his awareness is poor. His crossing and shooting is appallingly bad. I was actually getting annoyed at him in that video and it wasn't even us he was playing for. I'm gonna go watch some highlights of Jonny Hayes and remember the glory days.

Seems like a confident and mature player. Read he was right mid but most of the clips he was left, plus he says in his redtv interview that he prefers left mid. Decent pace and athleticism by the looks of things, explosive, unlike yogane.

Wait until we get riddin raw by Elgin.

In a lot of those clips, he doesn’t quite seem to have control of the ball and snaps into passes and cross balls that don’t find a team mate as he hasn’t paid much attention to where he’s laying it off. He does look like he does things at pace and works hard off the ball. Might give us the legs and urgency we need in the middle to front.

Right? So rude. First impressions on watching it is that he does look handy 2bf. He certainly takes the ball well and seems to have that really tidy knack of bouncing off players who are trying to take the ball from him in a way that allows him to keep it and run into space. The previous Hicham we had was good at that too. Would be a nice touch to give him the 47 shirt come to think of it. That's what Zerouali wore in his first season and, imo anyway, played his best football wearing that number.

Is this like the UFWC, in which Scotland are statistically the best football team ever?

Sounds like a slightly better version of Yogane. If he doesn’t have the demeanor of Eeyore from Winnie the fucking Poo on the ball that’ll be an upgrade.

Looks wise the boy could be Aouchiche's brother couldn't he. What stood out for me is he seems to be someone who can take the ball under pressure and still get you up the park whilst not losing it very often. 1.9 key passes per match particularly caught my eye, we have others that can cross and shoot but getting the ball to them in key areas has been our biggest shortcoming so far. That he will speak Arabic could be a bonus too given Mouloua doesn't speak English.

Draft room is now open. I'm pretty sure the TE can be used as the flex position but I'm not finding the ESPN app very user friendly Maist of mine have the same bye week.

Draft done. Feeling better about my team than last year but not convinced about my RBs.

Gonna be a laugh us being rubbish this season, but us all getting a cup final day out when the Aberdeen B team wins the Challenge Cup.

More excellent analysis from vitamin. Few things that stand out. His crossing isn't a threat, and he doesn't score much. But, had a look at how Lugano set up last season. He played left of a 4-2-3-1 mostly, but was expected to cut inside and play centrally and link play, although Lugano's system was possession based, which we certainly are not. No idea where he'll play really in Robboball.

He's fucking ace. And I haven't even seen the YouTube videos that people keep talking about but haven't shown the general forum etiquette to post for others.

Super, another “attacker” without a defined position.

Come on Hicham, prove me wrong My negativity based on previous signings this window has reached a new low so while this seems another desperate attempt to add to our misfiring team I hope you do better than some of the other players brought in I wish you well in a red shirt despite my fears that you will end up in the development squad with Frame, Devlin, etc never to be seen again And you have my full support and will get time to settle before real criticism starts - unless you say you are tired from travelling great distances

So one of those wingers who plays 30% of his games on the actual wing. Awesome. We’ve watched that one game at LB and thought, he’ll do, haven’t we 😞

Where do you leave it? I’m in the market for a decent spot.

He appears to be pretty versatile 🤣 At his last club, he played mostly on the left, despite being right footed.

How many assists? Surely a more relevant metric for a winger? I mean, we are awash with rampant goalscorers, we just need the dlivreeeee

He looks pretty good from clips on youtube.....but then I said the same about Jesper Karlsson. I am hoping that sharing a first name with Zerouali is a good omen Anyhoo welcome to the dandies Hicham 😀

Exactly. I'd sooner have a player who scores three worldies than someone who scores ten tap-ins. Quality, not quantity.
