Callum Hendry

He's not good enough imo even as a squad filler. His touch is terrible. An example was he came deep 2nd half on Wed to collect a ball fed into his feet and give the defence a break, it bounced 10 yards off him and we lost possession straight away.  

I'd much rather have 2 "proper" strikers and 2 youngsters as back up next season. He's neither. 

I'd rather go for Thomas at Livingston. Is he out of contract in the summer?

Hendry seems to be a solid enough trier, but I think that Glass will set his sights a bit higher to build a capable squad for next season.

He’s been so instrumental in us scoring more.

when he plays, we are a threat. He had a great game v Celtic (especially first half), but was involved in both goals v Livi.

He’s had a positive influence.

If we recruit better, then that will be a positive

No thanks, totally the wrong signing we should be making.

He's a wildcard option.

He’s a typical McInness signing

McInnes doesn't like him because he doesn't do enough defensive work.

1 good game against us, that’s all he’s had.

4 goals in 21 league games, he’s not even Levi’s most potent striker.

30 year old who’s not really settled anywhere or kicked on.

Just my opinion, but a poor lazy signing if we went for him

Yeah I got that impression a few posts back.  

I threw him out there as a wildcard signing but I don't really want to debate it endlessly. 

I think he's a  better player than Hendry but we like what what we like. 

[Sheepo]

Thomas had a good game against us no doubt, but we fell into this trap signing Curtis Main after one good game against us. I would like to think we have evolved since then

Take back what I said. 

 

Get rid now

Yes, very good tonight..well worth a punt..

[donswin1983]

Fair point...you could ‘punt’ all of them after that

[Sheepo]

Hendry showed everyone Today he is nowhere near good enough for our level his touch is absolutely shocking for a Pro player

[Tord31]

I'd give Hendry 2/10 today which actually makes him man of the match

And he’s 23, not some young 17 year old.

Don’t blame him though. 

Blame the cunt who signed him

I wasn’t fooled by a couple of decent goals.

Touch an elephant & never a Dons player, or at least he shouldn’t be. 

[aberdeen1970]

A lot of our support have forgotten what a good striker looks like. 

And who can blame them the shite we've had the last couple of seasons. 

Our best striker this season wasn't even a striker. 

None of the three on loan are good enough. The irony is that we probably couldn't afford two of them anyway.

Let me guess, it was Marley Watkins? 

I think you've got a picture of him above your bed and everything.

What's funny about my saying on the night that he was superb against Celtic?

He was

You quoted a tweet that said "sign him up", with the following response, "yep, superb tonight"

You agreed we should sign him up.

 

Langfield in goals, Hendry leading the line. Thank fuck your not the manager.

 

[torry_battery_ram]

Shows what a shambles we are that the 4th choice at St Johnstone is our first choice striker at present.

Aye. 

And their first choice striker is poor. 

And their second choice striker failed here a few years ago. 

I'm not sure who their third choice striker even is?

Melamed 

May

Kane

Hendry. 

Hendry hadn’t scored all season when we signed him 

And it’s about 2 in 12 or 13 since he signed.

Bizarre signing. Had panic buy written all over it to beef up the squad

Melamed has looked decent in some games I've seen him.  He plays off the main striker mainly?

Used to love it when he did an impromptu overhead kick.

Sign him up

[Yorston Vasey]

Who needs Leigh Griffiths or Saido Berahino when you've got Callum Hendry?
