aberdeen1970 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 What's the verdict now he's had a wee run? Can he replace GMS if he moves on? Or will we have a better idea after Hearts and Celtic? Link to comment
Tord31 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 We should aim to carry 4 players who can play on the wing Assuming GMS is away then we need two more beyond McGinn and McLennan. At the moment the chance is there for McLennan to go, stake a claim and say no we dont need other players. Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Aye hopefully he does a McKenna and makes a first team place his own. No better scenario than a young lad coming through the ranks and making the grade in the first team. It's what a club like Aberdeen should be all about. 3 Link to comment
the_shrimp Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Hopefully he can kick on and continue to do/set up goals tomorrow. Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted March 15, 2019 Author Share Posted March 15, 2019 Guess he can get a new thread. Get the feeling he is going to be the subject on many debates to come.Possibly injured today?I have liked the look of him lately but most of that appreciation may be coming because others have been poor.He looks quick, powerful & hard to defend against.Likes to take on his man but he does tend to either run himself into trouble, or is forced into a last second pass/cross that is very often poor. His crossing is almost always over hit.Looks like there's decent potential there but his crossing is definitely something that needs work & he needs to get his head up more when running with ball, as he runs himself into dead ends very often but manages to get through sometimes due to strength/momentum rather than skill.Doing enough to stay in team at moment but mostly due to physicality rather anything else right now.Hope he continually improvesWell I can safely say he is certainly fulfilling my hopes of improvement & it really hasn't taken him long to do so.The potential for this lad is huge. Would even go so far as to say he could become one of our most important (especially among the home grown) players going forward. No disrespect to the likes of Campbell, Anderson & even McKenna (he's still classed as one of the young uns ) we really do have some very decent young players breaking (& indeed establishing themselves) into the team. McKenna, McLennan, Campbell, Ferguson, Anderson & even Cosgrove should be included in this. Maybe Wright in future but still some doubts over him. Who else are getting there? Ross? Certainly bodes well. Credit to McInnes for this side of things 100% Link to comment

Guest Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 You must know what I mean Either runs the ball out for a throw or runs right into a cul se sac very very oftenIf only he was Glaswegian you'd be telling us he's payooor magic byraway Link to comment
Hewitt a the pies Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 You must know what I mean Either runs the ball out for a throw or runs right into a cul se sac very very oftenI know exactly what you mean and If he's not doing that he's bursting into space to receive a well weighted pass before coolly passing the ball passed a barely human goalkeeper into the net in front of 40,000 weegie mutants to close out what was our best win of the season. Yeah I see what you mean! Gimp! 2 Link to comment
NEM Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 As I have said countless times, I like the guy and think he has potential unlike most youth products from that area He is however, still thick as mince I'd put big money on him beating you in a pub quiz Link to comment
Reed or deed Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 He was absolutely shite against Livy anyway. Showed good stuff in a few games but highly frustrating in a large number of others.Nae sure. Link to comment
Redforever86 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 He was absolutely shite against Livy anyway. Showed good stuff in a few games but highly frustrating in a large number of others.Nae sure. He was arguably our best player in the first half. Link to comment
Guest Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 As I have said countless times, I like the guy and think he has potential unlike most youth products from that area He is however, still thick as minceFootballers are footballers, they are all thick as mince. I don't think you can attribute his lack of decision making to being thick, rather a lack of experience of when to dribble or when to pass/shoot. Personally, I think we should simplify his game, get him running down the sides with pace, getting crosses stood up into the box and sucking players out to stop him. He is guilty of overplaying at times, but he's 19, he's not going to be the finished article. I'd say he's had more impressive games than unimpressive games this season. We still need another winger in as he's not ready to start every single week IMO. Prospects from the NE aren't bad at all. Dean Campbell, Frank Ross is a good player just been injured lately, and Conor McLennan included. They also seem to really rate Ethan Ross, so much so he got a few minutes at Celtic Park. Plenty of prospects from the North East of Scotland. Would rather these boys than weegie muppets like Zander Diamond or even worse, Craig Storie. Link to comment
Guest Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Aye, or Lewis Ferguson?He wasn't a youth prospect... He was an outright signing. Do you know the offside rule yet? Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I used to know the offside rule up until a few years ago. Now I don't have a clue, it's a fucking mess. I think they like it like that. Link to comment
Guest Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Fine Willie MillerAre you putting Miller on the same level as Diamond and Storie? I just mentioned two shitebags Link to comment
DelMonte Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 He was arguably our best player in the first half.No arguably about it. A young player had a second half where he made the wrong decisions in the final third. What a disaster. Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 You must know what I meanEither runs the ball out for a throw or runs right into a cul se sac very very oftenWell that’s more inexperience than being thick as mince........he seems okay when getting interviewed, for a footballer Link to comment

Dynamo Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Very, very quickly going off this thicko So, so wasteful and is a man down Thanks for sharing. Not gallus enough for you? Link to comment
Zeus Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 McLennan done okay last night. Some things he done weren't great but he's 19 and a winger. Going to make mistakes and be inconsistent. Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 It's nothing to do with where he is from If you don't agree he has been extremely wasteful recently then you're kidding yourself And don't bother with the "he scored at ibrox " keech John Stewart scored at parkhead and the less said about him the betterMclennan has all of the building blocks but he should not be starting every game yetJoe Harper was actually right on Redtv when he said something along the lines of, he’s a good player but he’s still learning and still makes poor decisions because he’s inexperienced. Not because he’s shite or thick Link to comment
NEM Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Very, very quickly going off this thicko So, so wasteful and is a man down Shut up retard 2 Link to comment
