RUL Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 According to Newcastle journo if Martin Dubravka passes his medical today Woodman will join Aberdeen. He was on loan at Kilmarnock last season. Seems he's been told he'll be first choice, at least until Lewis is back, big blow for Rogers if true. Link to comment
StandFree1982 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Any point in keeping Rogers if McInnes doesn't trust him? If I was Rogers i'd be looking to move on, get first team football elsewhere, if true. Link to comment
RUL Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 Yeah, he must know though as at his press conference last week McInnes said we would be signing a goalkeeper before the transfer window ends. Link to comment

I presume for the rest of the season he would have been fine but if we can get a better keeper in during January then we should be doing it. Link to comment
craegDAMH Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Would imagine Rogers will be off at the end of the season. Not good enough. Link to comment

V for Vendetta Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Does seem a bit of a shame for Rogers. Surely he deserves a chance of a run in the team. Link to comment
oilcat Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Rogers contract up at the end of the season I think, seems strange he hasnt been offered an extension........or maybe he has and rejected it, thats why we are taking in a replacement for Joe rather than a journeyman to sit on the bench Link to comment
Bamber Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Record reporting Celtic also make an enquiry Link to comment
BWG Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I think it's a shrewd signing. As tough as the titties may be for Rogers if he gets injured or worse, turns out to be Clangers esque, we'd slaughter McInnes for not bringing in a goal keeper. That being said I think the position is Rogers' to lose. It would be pretty harsh on the lad if this boy comes straight in as first choice. When was his last competitive game? 2 Link to comment

If they do it that way then fair enough, let Rogers play for the jersey and if he doesn't look up to it then in comes the loan keeper. Rogers may not turn out to be brilliant but I think the club should have a good idea of his capabilities and he's played quite a number of games on loan at Falkirk so surely we've seen enough to know his strengths and weaknesses.

Tord31 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 woodman is a very promising keeper. if he does sign today hell be first pick by the Dundee United game would be my guess Link to comment
Donnet Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Can't see Newcastle loaning him to us without assurances about him being number 1 with plenty other clubs interested. Link to comment

If Rogers isn't as good as Lewis, why would it be a blow to him to not be first choice keeper?Lewis is, at least, the level of keeper Aberdeen need as no1. We are obviously looking at a similar level of keeper to bring in as we have one young lad with no premiership experience and a couple of younger lads as backup till potentially the end of the season.

However surely the days are long gone when Aberdeen are relying on getting in third/fourth choice players (Tony Warner et al.) to fill a void in our team. With respect to the boy Woodman we have a more than capable keeper in Danny Rogers and for the sake of a couple of months whilst Joe Lewis is out surely there is a greater need for other positions to be strengthened rather than getting in a keeper?

With respect to the boy Woodman we have a more than capable keeper in Danny Rogers and for the sake of a couple of months whilst Joe Lewis is out surely there is a greater need for other positions to be strengthened rather than getting in a keeper? I think the reason may be that McInnes just doesn't rate Rogers but was happy for him to sit on the bench as a relatively inexpensive back up but secretly hoped that he wouldn't have to play him other than maybe the odd match here and there. Lewis being out for 2-3 months has forced his hand Link to comment
