mizer Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 Just read in the Daily Star that McGhee has offered Drinkell and Mulgrew a contact for one year which will make him by far the highest paid player at the club. He now has to meet the board tomorrow to see if they agree. Is it just me or would the board not have to sanction any such offer before it was made? Quote
mizer Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 A one year contract? FFS. it was in the daily star, I would take it with a pinch of salt. Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 Drinkell? Aye, he must be well past his best. Quote
Ajja Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 Mulgrew does not have a wide enough range of talents to be a top earner at Aberdeen. If he was to become one then it just raises expectations of other players. Would be very very surprised if this move was made. Sounds like nonsense. Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 Mulgrew does not have a wide enough range of talents to be a top earner at Aberdeen. My thoughts exactly Ajja. A goalscoring (of sorts) defender is excellent to have, but that has to be balanced up with the ability to defend. Quote
maverick sheep Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 Exactly. Better using the wages on a defender and a striker instead of a one trick poney. Considering he is currently playing for the best offer he can get and putting himself in the shop window, his performance on Tues suggests that he'll always be a liability defensively. Certainly not good enough to be a top earner. I'd rather we had no threat from free kicks if it meant we shored up at the back and had any capability of scoring from open play (and taking corners).
