slippers Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Thank you for your services but no thanks. Precisely the kind of signing we need to stop signing. We need 2 starting strikers and the rest goes to youth. We either promote our own youth or we bring 1 or 2 youth players in to fill the void. Link to comment

He's the only cunt who seems to know where to stick the ball. Do I think he's worth a new contract? Maybe, he's scored the same number as Anderson in much less minutes, and in a team who are struggling to create and score, so he'd maybe be a good backup / Cosgrove like experiment. I've not seen enough of him to say that he'll make it, but as mentioned above, he can score. He certainly doesn't deserve any flak. What a really simplistic view. Directly comparing total minutes of the two players versus each other with even considering the circumstances surrounding said minutes ? vast majority of Anderson’s minutes were token game management minutes where we hardly tried to venture up the park. Vast majority of Hendry’s have been in a side desperately chasing games ?

North_Andy_Dandy Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Let’s be serious here, are people really thinking we should pay money for a guy that’s scored 2 goals for us? I’d rather get 2 quality strikers and then go with youth for the back up. Link to comment
Betty Swallicks Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 A squad filler. Lets sign players that can actually do a proper job for us and have young lads as the back up. Fuck the McInnes loser mentality. Link to comment

The days of signing squad filler who will never be anything else than squad filler need to be a thing of the past. I'd rather have two strikers of a quality better than we are used to and two young players than have 4 average players. That way you can pay higher wages to the two senior strikers. The two better strikers are then capable of more than the average players and the young players have a chance to develop and return a fee for the club. 1 Link to comment

We will certainly be signing 3 new senior strikers. 2 of whom will hopefully be very recognisable (but more importantly....very good). The third striker will be a squad filler. Not particularly expensive, competent, hopefully enthusiastic. Accepting of his position in the squad and knowing his game time will be limited whilst the 2 first choices are fit/ in reasonable form. But also capable of being usurped for the 3rd choice position by up and coming talent from the youth teams should one emerge. Link to comment

Haven't seen enough of him to say he'd be good enough to start games though, I don't think the management think so either judging by the lack of game time, although Kamberi would be seen as a better option (maybe not after his last few games, he's done absolutely nothing in either).

Aye. If the rest hadn't been so useless at finding the net we probably wouldn't be focusing so much attention on this lad. He's probably done himself no harm though in terms of getting a gig somewhere if he's out of the picture at St. Link to comment

Anderson has done very little to suggest he's any better than Hendry tbh. If we take away the fact that he's a St Johnstone reserve player and go with what we've seen in his career at Pittodrie, he's got a better goals per minute average than Anderson. Either way, none of those three should be our Number 9 next season. Link to comment

Yeah, looked good in that first game and hasn't done anything since. In true Aberdeen fashion, we're not really playing him to his strengths.
