HaarDon Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Winger from Preston. Former player for Jimmy. 'The Dons have agreed an initial loan for the season for the Danish winger from Preston with an option.' Averaged 1 goal in 4 for Jimmy 😀 Sold for £3mill last year. Come onnnnnn.   Edit- why is this moved to rumours thread. It's a done deal. 1 Link to comment
HaarDon Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 Apologies guys. Didn't notice this in the Tobers thread. A minjic exclusive 😀 Link to comment
Dynamo Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Saw the pic at the airport. obviously like everyone else on here never heard of him but hopefully a player Jimmy wants. Link to comment
Johnnyred1 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Noticed on his wee montage of goals, most came from breakaways. Similar to Keskinen's. Problem is most teams let us dominate play and hit us on the break. Should we start to concede territory, flood midfield and defence and revert to quick counter attacks? Link to comment
HaarDon Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 Elfsborg looked great in his clip. They did/do have strikers who can score though 🙄 Link to comment

Isn’t that Aberdeen under JT at our best? Happy to cede possession to the opposition and then counter press? Were we ever actually a high pressing team that I see banded about and that has now disappeared? I’m not sure we were ever high pressing team. Link to comment

Medw1311 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Seems Jimmy has played him quite a bit on the right wing as well... "As a right-footed left-winger Okells will look to come inside and both create and score goals, though is also more than capable of playing on the right-hand side having played a lot of games Elfsborg in that role."

We certainly counter-pressed hard to quickly win back the ball when we'd lost it high up the pitch. This has disappeared somewhat in recent times.  Link to comment
Donmacca Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Jimmy just the Swedish DMc signing former players? 🎣  Hopefully this signing frees up Duk to play up front Link to comment

If as is looking likely he joins with option to buy will be interesting to see what Preston have agreed re a fee Link to comment

penguin2024 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 If he is on the right it allows keskinen to play on left where he is more deadly 1 Link to comment

penguin2024 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Hopefully he is fast as fu## and has an end product Link to comment

Would settle for an end product, nae use for speed if the ball end up skied over the box to the other touchline or over the goal line all the time 1 Link to comment
Arthur FN Shelby Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Palaversa was a £7million transfer, Okkels £3 million, we can boast we have a team worth at least £10million.  Link to comment
