Sheepo Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Good move for Ronny, the weather and the football will suit him I would imagine. Probably this has been the end game all along Link to comment

We didn't see enough of him here to say that he was shite in Scotland. He was our m.o.m. in the opening game of the season v sevco (although we were so poor that it wasn't much of an accolade). 18 caps for Venezuela says he must have something going for him. Maybe being away from his wife and kid was just too much for him. I'm sure the whole story will emerge one day and as long as we at the very least got our money back for him there's no damage done.

Kincardine_Mearns_Red Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 A strange one indeed. Cormack was obviously doing a favour for his Atlanta pals. Link to comment

McInnes put him in the team so either the players had decided behind the manager's back or it was a political act designed to marginalise him. Don't think he ever started again after that. He just wasn't good enough. You could tell straight away. Bit like when Chidi came here on loan. And it turned out as we expected all along. He was here enroute to Atlanta. Everything else along the way has been to protect the boy and the arrangement. Whether that was due to mls rules or whether they were trying to do us a favour giving us a right back for a few months who knows. Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 All absolutely fine by me. Up to the point where we supposedly had a £800k player on the bench or not even that far and just chose not to play him. That stretches fans imagination somewhat. Said before. Simply say its undisclosed and save everyone the hassle. Link to comment

It's ok that we have differences of opinion. It's not ok to not understand the differences between facts and opinions. Point accepted. I'll rephrase. In my opinion he wasn't good enough. I also noticed the players not passing to him in th St Johnstone game. That happens a lot in football when you're having a stinker. Embarrassing on the nights it happens to you, been there and it cuts deep! Link to comment

Early in the first half he was clear and bursting up the right side towards the half way line. It was the obvious pass but it never came. That was the first of many. Me and TC disagreed vehemently on Scott Wright and my position was that his amount of starts (only 4 in his first 4 years) wasn't enough to judge him. Calvin Zola though, first game of the season, I turned to my mate after 5 minutes and wondered if this cunt is another cousin of George Weah. 17 seconds though, as MT claims on whatever current player, that's just absurd. Maybe having trained with him the players had no confidence in him? We were all over the place in that first half against St Johnstone. Did Hernandez and Campbell not get hooked at half time? Could have been any number of players really we were playing that badly Link to comment
shooftahmooftah Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 If he wasn’t any good, why did cormack, allow Mcinnes to sign him up. Cormack and Mcinnes. (Hinge and Bracket.) Can’t wait for the supposed January signings and departures. ??? 1 Link to comment

muttonhumper Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 He was signed without Derek's say so Derek spits the dummy Derek barely plays him Forcing his departure We'll never know how good he could have been for us because he never got a fucking chance. Due to the manager's pigheadedness. That's the bottom line here. Anyone saying he was shite is talking shite because we never got the chance to gauge his shiteness. Anyone who says we did is talking out of their arse. Link to comment

He is an established South American intenationalist, and has played in full games v the likes of Brazil and USA where they had clean sheets and beat Argentina too. McInnes didn't play him because his nose was out of joint.

He was never getting to play for us on a regular basis, due to Del Boy's insecurities. Link to comment
