Sheeptastic Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 45 minutes ago, Broken_Glass said: Fans need to cut Jack some slack. Another solid performance today. The criticism he receives especially on here is way over the top. IMO there is definitely a player in him. I'll cut him some slack when he completely cuts out his tendency to get caught wrong side and, as we've seen this season, give away cheap penalties. Solid enough as a squad option, not a starter if our recruitment is done properly. Link to comment

Some do go over the top with how they criticise though, but let's hope the boy continues to improve. He was the same as he always is Mostly dependable in defence but laughably bad in offence 1 1 Link to comment

Better that than McGarry who on the basis of what we've seen so far is equally poor in defence & offence (supposedly his strength). Link to comment

Far worse players have. jamie carragher never had any transfer options to leave Liverpool. Does that mean he wasn’t loyal or good enough for them? come on now frankie. Monti fuck You should have your own podcast bbb. maybe you and MT together. A modern day saint and greavsie. Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 MacKenzie ain’t the long term answer at LB. In the short term though, he needs to be playing ahead of Hayes and McGarry 4 Link to comment

Shows how bad a situation the LB position is when a player like MacKenzie is first pick when he should be a back up option at best Link to comment

a don in oz Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Amazed that it was HIM and not Devlin who was bombing up the wing. He was also the only actually solid defender today. Did really well. 1 Link to comment
ahead on alphabet Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 When Mackenzie plays well, Aberdeen play well... Link to comment
RedRichard Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 good second half from Jack. He's definitely worth persevering with (unlike Duncan) 1 Link to comment

Daisy1903 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Solid player. Never going to be a world beater but could be a good SPL player (similar to Devlin) if he keeps this consistency up. Good to see his confidence grow and getting forward more and more. Link to comment
Jazzer08 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I was impressed with him today. A lot of positive runs at the full back. Hope he keeps it up as he's developing into a good player. Link to comment
The Hulk Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Delighted for the boy. I didn’t think he would make it here but he’s given himself a great chance in recent weeks. Even better as a local lad, hope he makes this position his own. Link to comment

He might be worth a run in the team yet, it's not like he's had a decent run in his preferred position. Link to comment

Got good reviews from memory at Peterhead and he played out wide there Link to comment
CarrotCake Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Personally still of the opinion he's not at the required level. In fairness to him, he has surprised me in some games this season but we need to aim for a better standard. Hope he goes onto to do well elsewhere. 1 Link to comment
Simply Red Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Love his attitute. Decent full back in there for sure. Link to comment
bonzodaddy73 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I've always had my reservations about Jack but he has surprised me quite a bit this season, hopefully he keeps improving. Link to comment
Zeus Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Been massively proven wrong on him. Never thought he was going to make it, what's he 23. Didn't see any improvement coming. He's been excellent this season...in a mostly poor side. Link to comment

His first instinct is usually to cut back or pass back. 1 Link to comment

Seen a few times this season that the opposition have made changes on the right because they've been getting nothing against Mackenzie. 2 Link to comment
