Roberto Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Played well for 15 mins of the game. Half time. 2 Link to comment
Oregon Red Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 As I was watching the game, he seemed to be out of position a lot when Eintract were attacking. He doesn't read the game well. I could blame Robson for that..but a professional player should do better. Link to comment
CraigHill Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Really don’t like the way he runs. Something fucked up about it. Link to comment
RUL Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Just not good enough. Kinda feel sorry for him as he’s spoken before about Joe feels that way too Link to comment
GeorgeStreetReds Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Why is he still getting a game? Cost us in Hacken and cost us last night, he's miles off being good enough, very strange situation. Link to comment

Cost us in Hacken and cost us last night, he's miles off being good enough, very strange situation. Not convinced he would still be at the club if he was right footed. Left-sided defenders are somewhat of a commodity and it's probably what has protected his Aberdeen career so far. Outwith the penalty, he wasn't bad last night but the thing that frustrates me is he's made those mistakes before - including this season. It's unfortunate but he's a liability. Simply not good enough. Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I think the fact he’s one of the few Scottish/home grown players is the main reason he’s at the club. Ability/potential is further down the list of reasons. The dreaded LB curse is still with us sadly. Can Dadia play LB as well? Does Dadia even exist or is he just a name they’ve forgotten to remove from the subs list? The Kiwi boy seemed decent in attack in spells sometimes, better than MacKenzie at least but not sure on either defensively Link to comment

Sonoftherock Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I’m still holding out hope for him… but like everyone else, I groan when I see him name on the team. I remember the groans at Pittodrie when a young right back called Russell Anderson started breaking through. Probably too much to hope for an Anderson-esque turnaround… however, I’m confident the lad isn’t (and won’t be) a left back at this level. Showed more promise at LCB when I’ve seen him there… and looked more comfortable (probably should say ‘less uncomfortable’!). Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Ah yes. The Paul Kane groan. Remember it well. Link to comment
Arthur FN Shelby Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Get on to Ramadani at Lecce and get him to tell the Italians that MacKenzie is the best full back he’s ever played with, better than Hickey and is available for £1 million ( inside info) can but hope. Link to comment

Showed more promise at LCB when I’ve seen him there… and looked more comfortable (probably should say ‘less uncomfortable’!). I actually think he's better at left-back but that's in a four and not as a wing-back. I vaguely remember Consi saying MacKenzie was one of the best one-v-one defenders at the club a few years back and I think he was alluding to the fact that he's decent at standing up and winning the ball out wide when a winger is running at him. What I think is a proper weakness of his is when the ball's played in behind and he has no idea where it is so inevitably gets caught wrong side and pulls the player down. I'd be interested to see how many penalties he's given away during his time with us because I can recall three without even really thinking about it. Link to comment

He actually reminds me of Considene when a winger is running at him. Great chance of a foul or pen. Link to comment

But I've already said he's not good enough in this thread so I'm not sure how else you expected me to answer this one. What I'm saying is if he's on our books and is going to be used by Robson I'd rather it was at LB in a four (albeit sparingly). Link to comment

He did well against their tricky winger Sadiq. Was a bit weak giving away a pen in that game as well. Somebody mentioned Russel struggled at this stage of his career at RB which is true.
