Curtis Main

[Sonoftherock]

My memory of Maddison is him playing through the middle. Every one of those highlights shows him through the middle. 

 

I'm the opposite.  My recollection is of Maddison spending the majority of time out wide... when he did drift centrally he looked far more dangerous, as @@BWG mentions.

[The Hulk]

He played left wing in the aforementioned LC final and Forrest handed him his arse after Considine booted it a good few times.

[fine-n-dandy]

Main is your basic bulldozer type power house striker.

 

Time will tell if that works for us. We haven’t really had that type in the side since Shearer.

 

Very much doubt he will turn out close to Shearers level/strength but hope he comes close at least.

 

He may be closer to Magennis level than Shearer.

 

Hopefully we get pleasantly surprised.

Shearer scored goals.

You mean we haven’t had an effective one in that role since Shearer? There’s been a few and they’ve all been pretty mince

Nah, only real 'battering ram' type we've had up front since Shearer was Magennis really.

 

 

Can't really think of any other strikers we've had since that I would put in that category.

 

They type that went through defenders rather than around them

Fair enough, I’d have said a few of the strikers we’ve had have tried that style, just been shite at it, Tommy Smith, Leon Mike, Eugene Dadi, Stockley, Zola? Fuckin hell what a list and that’s not even half of them

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Take it as read he'll be subbed on left mid in our first game if he is on the bench or shunted to left mid if he starts up front

Ah yes, the legendary Monokana role.

[fine-n-dandy]

Aye maybe Dadi, al agree wi that one.

How about Brewster? Don’t remember too much of his time with us but I generally recall that he had a physical side to his game.

[Chewie37]

He was definitely a strong player, didn’t he adapt more to that role as his pace went? Never saw him as a battering ram though, similar to Whelan

[The Buzzard]

Quite possibly. I always thought he was a good player with Utd and Hibs.

[Don Fonte]

He was definitely a battering ram to another man's anus in a pub toilet. Allegedly

Did you mean Tommy Wright ?

[Henry]

I'm lost to be honest!

 

What is the accusation exactly? That we are in cahoots with @@Millertime, as part of a cover up to protect his lies about attending the 2002 Champions League Final?

 

Come awa' min!

No, I was querying whether Millertime has requested his past posts to be deleted.

[fine-n-dandy]

Yeah he was always a great reader of the game, right place right time & great in the air.

 

Also great at getting in behind his man

[Sonoftherock]

Who cares?

[fine-n-dandy]

As soon as Brewster gets mentioned the puns start eh

[redone]

Brewster’s main strength was that his when he headed the ball it was usually with some sort of purpose in trying to find a teammate, rather than just a hopeful flick-on. And he won a helluva lot of headers.

[aberdeen1970]

Brewster was always looking to penetrate the opposition

[eeps]

Brilliant in Supermarket Sweep

[JakieBastard]

Maddison wasn't the full package when he came to us. He swanned about, diving around and had a pretty shite workrate. His spells of brilliance were there to be seen, but he wasn't doing enough to warrant more game time.

 

He's improved significantly, from what i've seen, in a league where he's not getting kicked about by journeymen and Scott Brown types.

That maybe so. But even though he was inconsistent it was plain to see from his touch, vision and football brain that he was destined for big things.

 

But in true SPL fashion he was widely viewed as a luxury player that couldn't be fitted in

[Chewie37]

Did you mean Tommy Wright ?

I did.....I also swear that’s what I wrote. Either my mind is mush, or my iPad keeps changing sentences after I type them. I’ve seen it do it a lot, fuck you Apple, how do I switch that shit off?

Don't buy Apple.

Problem solved.

Yeah iPads are cunts for that. Either changing words to American spellings, or highlight words & deleting them

[fine-n-dandy]

Only good thing apple has is FaceTime

 

I miss my swipe text on Samsung. That was a laugh to read when you sobered up

[fine-n-dandy]

When did you last sober up?

Fk knows but your mum is stunning

[Tord31]

He's not shown anything since the semi final.

[King Street Loon]

Hasn't scored in a good while according to the summarisers on the radio today.

That won't change if Aberdeen continue to play the way they did today.
