Better now than he was initially but still not at the required level Aye. Not sure what kind of midfielder he is. Was poor as a sitting midfielder. Under Glass he looks a bit better as a more attacking inside left/inside right, but still doesn’t look too comfortable in the final third. Allegedly one of the higher earners too. But Glass seems to really like him so he’s not going anywhere Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 If we sell Hedges and don't bring in another winger/creative forward we'll have made a complete balls up. Its nae like we're blessed with creative players as it is. Link to comment

RED_JOHN Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Ferguson is heading away. We are needing a different type of midfield (play too safe and very little imagination) so hopefully Cormack spends some of the transfer fee. I would loan out Campbell and try and move on McGeouch (as he brings nothing of note to the team). Hopefully Kennedy takes the hint and either agrees a release clause or heads to St.Mirren.

A few specialist defensive midfielders and all on the bench because Ferguson was better than them and McInnes preferred being strongest possible in that position. The reality is though they were all adequate and there was other positions we were well short of adequate eg striker, winger etc Link to comment

Would hope we would just replace with him if Hedges goes. Selling Hedges and replacing him with McGrath just adds to the problems we already have. Far too many central midfielders. If we sell Ferguson then by all means go for McGrath. But selling Hedges at all is football suicide as right now he looks like the only one who can make us tick. 1 Link to comment

What's the point in having 3 or 4 good midfielders who never get a game. Personally From the 8 midfielders we have just now... I'd keep Brown and Longstaff as the main two, McCrorie as a utility man who can play midfield or occassionally at the back, Campbell who can also cover left back, and at a push McGeouch as another option / cover. I'd get rid of Ojo as I just don't think he's up to much (McGeouch is a better player), and I'd sell Ferguson if we can get at least £3m, and I'd send Teddy Jenks back to Brighton straight away. It really does Link to comment

King Street Loon Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 All this talk of McGrath that's been going on for months. What sort of player is he, what's his best position and what would he bring to us? Genuine question as so many on here advocating signing him but I've never really paid much attention to him other than to know he plays for St. Mirren and scored a few penalties. Link to comment
