strachanmcgheegoal Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 If we could do that AND come second without busting the bank whilst disguising overall shiteness with some kind of euro run that would be good enough for me. Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 This league is wide open this year. No stand out team and everyone is beating each other. Link to comment
Henry Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Be funny if we kept signing lumps from English lower leagues, wee spit and polish, sell on for a tidy profit. @@Millertime tried that with cars. http://www.afc-chat.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=26961&hl=probe no, not really i dont think so. im INCREDIBLE at washing and polishing and i think a car bought at 400 quid, if given proper treatment could easily sell for double all about finding the right cars initially Link to comment
The Hulk Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Cosgrove was absolutely tremendous v Livingston on Tuesday. His one touch lay-offs and generally bringing others into play especially in the second half was about the best he's been for us. He's improving all the time. He's not easy on the eye and neither are the long ball tactics but in terms of how he's being asked to play he's doing the job. Link to comment

Yorston Vasey Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Aberdeen fans moaning since 1903Nah, just musing on the fact that one of the great criticisms of Rooney was that he only really netted against the weaker teams but contributed little against the top sides. Cosgoals has scored against St Mirren, Livingston and Dundee this season, time for him to kick on and deliver the goods in games against better teams to really show he will be a valuable asset.

GDON21 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 If only we could play shite teams every week, boy would be a goal machine superstar... Aye like the second best defence in the league at the time and scored 3! Link to comment

He has been piss poor for most of his Aberdeen career and folkes were quite justified in their criticism of him. Do I think he will go on and score as many as Rooney did, No. Would certainly like to see another stiker brought in as I don't think him and May are the answer up fromt long term. Said last night that I have started to warm to him with 4 goals in his last 3 games and better overall performances so priase where it is due. Link to comment

He's been pretty much the same player now as he was months ago, the difference now is that we're actually getting decent balls in the box and creating more chances. Link to comment
King Street Loon Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I love it when a player proves me wrong in a positive manner.He's got to keep it up and the team have to continue creating chances for the forwards. Link to comment

He's been pretty much the same player now as he was months ago, the difference now is that we're actually getting decent balls in the box and creating more chances. Bollocks. His first touch has been dreadful, he couldn't run with the ball at his feet and he had no idea where the goal was and so he was rightly criticised. Last few games he has finally found a bit of form. His first touch has been much better and he evern managed to run into the box before slamming the ball home last night which is something that we have not seen before. Team are certainly playing better which helps him but he has definitely upped his own game which is great to see. Early days for the improved Cosgrove but I certainly hope it lasts. Link to comment

You honestly think he's suddenly able to a) find a first touch b) run with the ball and c) learn to shoot all within a short space of time? If so, kudos to our miracle working training team. I've seen very little issue with his hold up play over the few months, I think the biggest aspect now is that he's got others playing off him better, giving him more options. Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 He's playing better and he's used to his teammates, it's not really a difficult concept this fitba malarkey Link to comment
