RicoS321 Posted June 28, 2017 Report Posted June 28, 2017 Yes, of course defence is important to the team. They need a new centre-half, but I always guessed that centre-halfs were easier to come by in the market. A big lad with broad shoulders, commanding who can get to know Reynolds lets face it there are many of them around. Plunk a unit in the centre of the defence and they can do the job. Up front (centre forward) need a new force. Rooney is gauranteed goals via tap ins, pens but he is absent and isolated so much during games. V Rijeka (away) Rooney was a sub. He might also have been sub v Sociadad. Cup Final v Celtic (Rooney was sub). Goodwillie was pants at Aberdeen and he looked like his mind was elsewhere but the shear fact he was all over the place disrupted defenders. I would make Rooney and Stockley compete with a new man up front. Steve May is a work horse and very good at free kicks and corners. Agree with most of this. Said in January that our priority then should have been a striker (I think it was, but we couldn't get the targeted option - May). I think O'Connor and Reynolds is no worse than Taylor and Reynolds and will do us for the vast majority of games. However, the need for backup is a definite. Again, we look to the youth and see little coming through in that regard. I don't believe McKenna will make the grade. I think thon Stranraer youngster we've supposedly signed and also Harvie can play full back if I'm nae mistaken? This gives us options for cover if we can't find any good backup in this window. Considine is confident enough to play either side of the back two, so can cover for either and then bring in one of the two youngsters into fullback as first cover. McKenna could see out his contract as secondary cover if we have two centre halves missing at the same time. I just think we'll struggle to find a good central defender that won't mind being benched for a lot of the season (but that could be O'Connor I suppose like it was last season). Quote
BigAl Posted June 28, 2017 Report Posted June 28, 2017 Done deal apparently Might have jumped the gun on this one. Quote
CtS Posted June 28, 2017 Report Posted June 28, 2017 McGinn to Korea http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/former-aberdeen-star-niall-mcginn-10701102 Doesn't sound like a very good Korea move. Quote
LA-Don Posted June 28, 2017 Report Posted June 28, 2017 Korea, China, MLS, there's money out there for McGinn if he wants it. All depends on career ambition and family. Money isn't the be all and end all or McGinn would have already signed somewhere. Quote
OxfordDon Posted June 28, 2017 Report Posted June 28, 2017 If he goes there, I await the North Koreans circulating a badly photoshopped image of McGinn smiling. Quote
gosgka Posted June 28, 2017 Report Posted June 28, 2017 Korea in range of fat boy kim's guns, the only country in the world that makes Northfield look classy. maybe we can sign him in January as he gets sick of fried dog and misses Tetley tea and rowies Quote

DIdn't want to start a whole new thread on just this and it's fairly relevant to the window. Quote

Reidzer 1314 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 Scott Burns has Tweeted that we have made an improved £300k bid for Stevie May and that May has informed Preston he would like to move to Pittodrie., Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 He has gone on to say that Preston want £500k but with Aberdeen £300k bid and the fact that May want to come that the two clubs will likely meet in the middle. Quote
ayrshire_don74 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 offloading storey to killie hopefully for a small fee Quote
manc_don Posted June 29, 2017 Author Report Posted June 29, 2017 Might have jumped the gun on this one. Apparently we've not made a bid for him yet?!? Quote
Elgindon Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 Doesn't sound like a very good Korea move. Agreed,the standard of football over theres pretty hongkong.. Heard,Mcginn had started training with us again,and was hopeful he might be tempted to stay,but maybe as Manc says he hasnt been offered a deal yet? The May story sounds promising,but PNEs managers job is apparently under threat which may put a deal on hold.. Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 Yeah Grayson has been given permission to talk to Sunderland, it could delay the deal. But if May wants to go and the money is right, the club hierarchy might just let it go through, hopefully. Quote

But if May wants to go and the money is right, the club hierarchy might just let it go through, hopefully. Let's hope so, plenty of their fucktard fans are saying "no, we paid way more for him, pay more etc...". Would be great to get him signed up before the Euro deadline... Him and Stewart on fire along with Rooney and Christie, we'll soon forget those who've left. Quote

100% Anti Kingsford Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 Look he has signed, its a 1 year deal. Its not my news its not speculation its Richard Gordon, Willie Millir etc Speaking about the signing on BBC Scotland Quote
Stewart Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 Cowdenbeath have announced that they've received a £3000 solidarity fee due to us signing Greg Stewart. Anyone able to figure out what we've paid from that? Cowdenbeath FC?Verified account @CowdenbeathFC 2m2 minutes ago More Ex-Cowden star Greg Stewart has recently moved to Aberdeen on loan from Birmingham City. We therefore receive a solidarity payment of £3000. Quote
