ChutneyLove Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I'm sure big Calv would rather be banging them in at Burton than struggling here. He knew this was a step-up and for some reason or the other hasn't managed to do it. Some might say that only giving him half a season is a bit unfair, though we shouldn't really be expected to carry passengers. Nothing I have seen from him so far indicates he will ever be prolific for The Dons. Link to comment
MightyDons Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 If Rooney does sign I still think we need a big striker in the squad. Zola and Magennis aren't the answer and Vernon isn't suited to being a lone striker. Link to comment

Nothing I have seen from him so far indicates he will ever be prolific for The Dons.Half a season does sound harsh, but I think he's had a decent run in the team, even more so than Wylde, so if McInnes thought Wylde was surplus and (by general concensus among us, myself included) he was right to bin him... well, show no mercy, I say. AFC has had enough wage thieves over the last decade and a half. He tries, I grant him that, but he's not good enough. End of. 1 Link to comment

Some might say that only giving him half a season is a bit unfair, though we shouldn't really be expected to carry passengers. Nothing I have seen from him so far indicates he will ever be prolific for The Dons. I think it was clear even early on that he wasn't going to cut it. To be fair, McInnes did persist with Zola to begin with, maybe thinking it would take him time to adjust to a better standard, but watching him lumber around trying to control the ball like it was some alien object can't have inspired the manager. People kept talking about his hold-up play being good, but I never saw much evidence that he was any better at holding the ball up and bringing others into play than any other player on the park. And for a lad his size to be so ineffectual in the air is just bizarre beyond belief. There was also the claim that he 'pulls defenders out of position', but surely that's true of any attacking player. The obvious thing for a defender to do is pick up anyone nearing the box, Zola is no special case. From my limited viewings of him I'd describe him as a big, useless, clumsy plug. Maybe he was doing some good work in the games they weren't streaming live, and I was just unlucky enough to see his bad games. Link to comment
Stoneybloke Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 He's certainly not the most elegant player I've seen. Link to comment

What have you done with Redstar?Very good chief...Boyd is not a complete hun though...I'd class him alongside Bett,McLeish and Doug Bell...being besties with McCoist and positively salivating over the cunt...see Mchun and the GWT...mark a man down as a hun who is beyond redemption I'm afraid.
