strachanmcgheegoal Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 1 hour ago, King Street Loon said: The problem with Ojo and our other midfielders is that they are too safe and risk averse. None of them are prepared to play a risky pass to get someone to run onto it. It always sideways and backwards. You could argue that the players ahead often aren't making runs, but it's the same for all the midfield. Did anyone else see the Campbell pass (sorry Ollie) that admittedly slightly over hit was basically for Hoban to run onto (which he did) to which the commentator said “well that’s a pass to nowhere” Sorry, that’s the forward pass I want! Or did I imagine that? 1 Link to comment

Numerous times they play decent fitba and when the ball is on they do the safety thing first and play it back , frustrates the fuck out of me . That needs to be coached out Particularly when you’ve Hayes, Kennedy, Wright, now Watkins, McLennan all looking for the ball to run onto. Cosgrove is never going to outrun anyone but it’s like they all train with him and only him. Link to comment
super_al Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I thought Ojo was very good when he came on today. His performance was more like what we saw of him at times last season. Link to comment
CalgaryDon Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 If KING-Ojo can play like that every game then he deserves to start alongside McCrorie and Ferguson in the midfield. Link to comment

There's a player there. No one should be judged on the first half, whole team had a mare. Because car finance isn’t a thing ??♂️ 1 1 Link to comment

King Street Loon Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Has this cunt ever had a good game for us? I'm really struggling to remember any game where he's stood out? There must be one or two, but I'm struggling. Link to comment

Some fell for one or two of his earlier games against easy opposition when he had fuck all to do, but the bottom line is he's shite. No way near good enough for us if we want to be consistent and challenging positively as the season progresses. A total imposter. Link to comment

Zeus Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Guilty of believing the early hype against dross (Chikura maybe?) He'd been poor since the Rijeka game when he got sent off. Was arite vs St Mirren in the cup, from what I remember. Yesterday he was terrible. Don't know if he's just not gelling with the team or what. They had a 4th goal chopped off in the first half due to his poor pass. He just can't seem to find a teammate...unless it's a 2 yard sidewatrds ba. Link to comment

Sonoftherock Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 He's got no heart. That's his biggest problem. Has looked tidy enough, on occasion when we're playing well. Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Thankfully we now have McCrorie to take the pish out of Hibs for beating to his signature. Link to comment
ABERDEENROWIE1903 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Simply not good enough Easily brushed off the ball Bench filler at best. Have not seen one single game where he impressed If only we could move him on Link to comment
RUL Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I don't understand why he played ahead of McGeough. I'm not sure it's a heart thing as suggested above. He's shite. Link to comment

Tord31 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 He's not looking great at the moment and he is certainly not good enough to play in a centre midfield two ever. He doesn't have the energy or physicality to do that. Link to comment
StandFree1982 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 OJo has this knack for being unable to make a simple pass. He's a passenger, but not his fault for the 3-0 defeat yesterday. That lies solely on Watkins, I think it was him that handled it, Lewis for that abysmal attempt at a kick out, and Ash Taylor for being beaten in the air by a guy half his height Link to comment

There is a massive gulf in class between Scunthorpe United and Aberdeen, and sadly he has been exposed as being very average at best, certainly not good enough for us. Whoever scouted him is more to blame however. Link to comment
Byrne Baby Byrne Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 We have a lot of quality in that position. Seems odd to play someone who is clearly terrible there. Would be good if we could move him on Link to comment

strachanmcgheegoal Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 It’s almost like he panicked, decided he had to have his Rolls Royce in to replace McKenna (Mistake) and then decided Ojo would fill the Rolls Royce shaped hole we’d created right in the area their best player would look to play. (Huge mistake). and that’s without mentioning the Fiat Punto brought in to replace Hoban. Link to comment

Yes if we make the groups. A bit of ambition And a fair draw and we could do that. Whereas in the league and we scrape third we could spend a shitload (we have relatively speaking) and come a decent third. But still third. Link to comment

Just frustrating that with Huns and Hibs dropping points, we go and fuck it up spectacularly. I'm officially done with Ojo though, don't ever want to see his name on the teamsheet again regardless of how many games we've played in quick succession. It's a fucking tragedy that McInnes feels he has pull McCrorie out of that midfield role. Link to comment

Muck That’s £125k we’ll never see again. Slow as a week in the jail & gives the ball away constantly. To think Ojo & Bryson were our “star” signings last summer. Then again, Gleeson & the Irish gimp who looked dead & whose name I cant even remember were the stellar signings the year before. Edit - Chris Forrester Link to comment
