What if we miss out on Plan B because we wait until the last couple of days of the window just to find out he's staying at Wolves? Arsed with that tinpot behaviour. Link to comment

Agree... we end up waiting until deadline day and they decide to keep him and we'll end up missing out on other targets and desperately scraping the bottom of the barrel trying to find an option to sign in his place. Its already dragged on all Summer, time to move on to plan B. Link to comment

We've left our most important signing to last, partly I assume, because they are the hardest types of players to find. 2 Link to comment

The hypothetical behaviour I just described. I'm not saying that's what AFC are doing, but if it transpires further down the line that the reason we missed out on signing a player for that position is that we were hoping for Ronan only to be told no when it was all too late? That's tinpot and I'll stomp my feet and go in a huff. Edit: Yeah, what the guy above me said in a far more concise way than I did. 1 Link to comment

Dandys1983 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I'm sure Aberdeen have been well aware of what Wolves plans were long before now, not sitting about waiting to see what the squad lists are, pretty confident we have someone coming in soon ? 1 Link to comment

They can't all play. I think we could see vinny/barron there all season if a #10 doesnt come in. Vinny has been playing it so far and looks better for it. I think Barron could be great in that role. Think his first game for us he was further forward. Can pick a pass, beat a man and great feet. Although his shooting could be a bit better. However, he's also done very well in the more defensive role that Goodwin has put him in. I remember when Jim first came in he said something about Lewis Ferguson being played too far forward meaning he has less of the ball and less influence from one of your best players. I wonder if he sees Barron the same way. Having said that, bringing in another number 10 would be great. Still need competition for that role Link to comment

Thats fair enough, but i doubt there are teams out there holding on to see what decisions Aberdeen make over the next few weeks in order for Duncan, Harvey or McClennan etc to be potentially one of their most important signing of the season. FYI and before the usual suspects jump in i'm not saying we have all our eggs in one basket holding on for Ronan, as others have said i'm hopeful we are already moving on to other targets and not waiting until the last minute in the diminishing hope of getting him.

KidCreole Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 20 years ago I can recall my dad complaining about us trying to sign a successful player from the English 1st division and how that reflected on the standard of Scottish football, Fast forward to us signing a Fleetwood non starter, I wonder if the reason people are so harsh when judging players is because to admit these guys can do a job for us is also to admit to the standard of our league Link to comment
