Ernie McCracken Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Watkins seems to be a decent player, but there is no sense to this. The only thing I can think is that McInnes has always wanted Watkins and has used the striker crisis to get him in the hope that we can bumble along until the likes of Main get fit, at which point he can shove Watkins on the wing. Prior to Watkins signing we had 12 midfielders in contention for the first team, six of which play on the wing. If we need a striker, sign a striker, not another fucking midfielder. 4 1 Link to comment

This ^^^^ Exactly what I think. He’s not an out & out centre forward. Which is exactly what we need. 2 Link to comment

I got notified (need to see if / how to switch off) of reactions. Waste of bloody time, thinking there was a new post to read. Anyway, Hop Bob scores today as a GIRFUY ? P.S. Just checked and there is an option to adjust notifications for "reactions" but admin have disabled the option, so its fixed on ? Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 This signing didn’t make any sense to me until I saw this from a post above. ”Miles Storey 2.0” And then I thought bugger. 2 Link to comment
Cambridge Red Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Hope he does get some goals. Chance to resurrect the "Don't you want me baby" song. Yes I know it's a crap reason but you gotta admit it is a catchy tune! Link to comment

Sheepo Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 As usual I will reserve judgement until I see him play. He cant be any worse than Main. My only memories of him was when they won the cup he was superb in the final and scored. I think he was out of contract and basically that performance earned his move to England. Mcinnes tried to get him back then also. Will see after the next 3 games how he gets on 1 Link to comment
far's_the_bogs? Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Good debut, should have buried that header. 1 Link to comment
CalgaryDon Posted August 23, 2020 Author Share Posted August 23, 2020 I'd happily see Main leave and Watkins sign permanently. Watkins looked better than Cosgrove. Was unlucky not to score however he clearly gets himself into those positions and it won't be long before he makes a habit of finding the back of the net. Constantly closing down, was in amongst the opposition defenders, winning flick ons, running in behind the defence, tricky/beating his man, holding the ball up/ good linking up play - just a great debut performance. I just can't see that coming from Main or Anderson. 1 1 Link to comment
Big Hat Logan Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 So for all the moaning and greeting about this signing, turns out he’s pretty decent and better than what we have up front. No credit for the manager though, that would be too much for some people. 2 1 Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 It was a good debut and there were signs that his hold up play and pace will be useful up front. Let's see how he gets on in the next few weeks before we go overboard either way. 1 Link to comment

JakieBastard Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Longer term I'd like to see him used just behind our number 9. His work rate and movement was really good but quite clear he isn't someone who will lead the line. Should really have scored at least one of his chances 1 Link to comment
Sheepo Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I thought he played well Today but it was his first game a bit early to make judgements, he had 2 good chances and missed both. Like all strikers he should be judged ultimately on his goals tally 1 Link to comment

far's_the_bogs? Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I thought he looked like a good foil for a poacher. Unfortunately, as we know, McIness likes one up front. Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 If he keeps Main out of the starting line up then he’s a plus Link to comment

Guest Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Very useful, should've probably scored but his movement, control and general presence helped us greatly in the final 3rd. A very good signing and I reckon come January we'll be eager to extend his loan. Good player. Link to comment
shut up meg Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 So in short, if this boy works out, we should track down the ICT scout from 2010 to 2015 and get him to replace Russ Richardson. Link to comment
