Donnet Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Three Aberdeen players, Deano, Archie and Ethan Ross called up for the first round of qualifiers for the under 17 Euros. 4 team round robin against Denmark, Andorra and host nation Estonia. Congratulations lads. All 3 starting todays game with Estonia. Link to comment
1903Fitba Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Bagged another today did he not? Needs a song imo Where your father Where's your father Where's your faaaather Deano etc Link to comment
ollie1903 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Bagged another today did he not? Deano did indeed manage to bag a goal last night as Scotland 17s beat Estonia 3-0. 1 more game to go against Denmark on Saturday but theyve already advanced to the elite round qualifiers for next summers euro championship as they also beat Andorra on Sunday.

ollie1903 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 All 3 starting todays game with Estonia. And they can all be extremely proud of their efforts. Dean has played the last two games at centre half oddly, but has stuck to his job pretty well, and as said got on the scoresheet last night. Ethan Ross has continued his good form for the the Dons 20s with a great hours work also, and Archie, although rarely in the action brought of a remarkable double save in the last minute. Im not sure the last time three Aberdeen players started a competitive international match together, but something the club should be pretty proud of. Link to comment

Donnet Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Can be a great learning experience for a young player to get a taste of other positions to develop their understanding of their own position from another perspective but odd for it to happen in a international qualifier! Link to comment

ollie1903 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Does he look comfortable at centre half?Obviously he would play anywhere just so he is playing, but i would imagine centre mid is his preferred position?Hes played pretty well. Comfortable in possession and rarely wastes a pass. He got skinned when covering out wide in the last game, jumped in and turned his back when he thought the winger was about to cross. Thats his only FFS moment in two games. I suppose its pretty flattering to be trusted to do a job like that in important European qualifiers, but centre mid is definitely where he would prefer to be.

V for Vendetta Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Is young Deano "in" enough with the first team to get me a signed photo of McInnes in his jammies yet!?Slightly creepy. Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 MT in new wind up on the U20's thread shocker. Who's going to report him to the @police and real police this time?? 1 Link to comment
The Cockney Don Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Hopefully on ere for the game tomorrow.See the other day on flashscores.com they had Dean playing centre-back for the scotland U17's, ollie confirmed it. Link to comment
V for Vendetta Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Mcinnes, not dean!Even so! I hope McInnes doesnt encourage the youth players to take home pictures of him in his jammies! 1 Link to comment

Itd be good to nail down one position but if being versatile means he plays every minute of every game as he has done in this first round of Euro qualifiers, then its not the worst problem in the world to have.

ollie1903 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Ollie looking at how tepid our current CM is barring Shinnie do you think Dean or one of the Ross lads will get a FT chance this season ?Id like to think (Hope) there may be one or two opportunities for some of the younger lads as the season progresses, but ultimately that depends on how the first team are doing. The players you mention above are all different types, but if were specifically talking about Deano then, if young Harry Cochrane who is performing so well in the centre of the pitch for Hearts, good player that he undoubtedly is, then there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Dean has the capabilities to make an impact here. I know the expectations at Hearts are different to Aberdeens at the moment so I understand how difficult itll be for him, and any of the others to make the breakthrough. Link to comment

Is Mbayo the first brother to captain an Aberdeen side in competitive action? Or did someone like Kombouare get the armband in the past? Link to comment
