Tyrant Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Maybe after that we can all go round to his hoose up near the Lang Stracht and suck him off? Quote
Graeme_S Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 realistically, what is he going to learn by staying at Aberdeen? we play in a joke of a league and even then we can't compete. if that's what is called a football education, then it's no wonder our national team is hopeless now too. the days of getting massive fees for youth players are gone for our club and anyone else in Scotland. I don't blame Fyvie or any other youngster for going down south where a the football is a better standard. b there's far more money (football is their living afterall) Also, using the example of Anderson is pointless. injuries ruined his english dream. Quote
Tyrant Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Agreed, Graeme. Anderson was good enough to do a job in the EPL at the time he left us. Although.. Getting skinned by and then taking down Emile Heskey could've happened to anyone! Seriously though. Heskey was a better player in 2007. Quote

Pretty much my thoughts on the matter tbh but I disagree that he wouldn't develop in Scotland. You can't buy first team experience which is something he is unlikely to experience in England. That said, I don't blame him, because as you say, the football is generally shite and you get pittance for it. Quote
Tyrant Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 I only take career advice from myself and my family and DonStalkers who Have at least 100 posts. Pretty sure Fyvie will look at the 100 donstalk post benchmark too I think he looks for a rating of at least 40 too. Quote
Kowalski Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 The open letter is a tad cringeworthy. One of the best young players to come through the youth system? What, ever? I personally don't think he could cut it in the EPL. If we somehow can get £5M for him then it's Quote
glasgowdon Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Uses Maguire as an example. Easy when you make the evidence fit your point, the two lads from Hamilton seem to play a lot for Wigan? Quote
Tyrant Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Charlie Adam has done well for himself despite being not all that great at Rangers. Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 The open letter is a tad cringeworthy. One of the best young players to come through the youth system? What, ever? I personally don't think he could cut it in the EPL. If we somehow can get £5M for him then it's 5 hunner grand would do. Quote
manc_don Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 5 hunner grand would do. I'd happily accept that. True, his development has stalled but I don't think he'll make the grade in the EPL. I know GD cited McArthur and McCarthy as examples, but arguably they were a lot more developed when they left than Fyvie currently is, and had more pace. He needs to work on that if he's going to succeed. Quote

maverick sheep Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 People forget how good he was before the alloa injury. He was easily the brightest prospect in a generation. But if he wants out then it's up to him. I'm not so concerned about the upfront fee, more interested in the add-ons. Quote
mizer Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Fyvie has lost a bit of pace and his spark since he crocked himself at Alloa. It also doesn't help he has been moved around positionally and has had to compete for a space in a team with plenty midfielders. Quote
Penfold Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Fyvie's form dipped long before the Alloa injury. He was on the bench in all 9 competitive games before starting the Alloa game. Quote
