Ramandu Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Cannot remember him playing for us. Must have wiped it from memory. I assume it was a disaster and he was rubbish? Link to comment

StandFree1982 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 McKenna - Captained Forest today 1-1 with Reading Shinnie - On losing Derby side again. Got his standard booking too. Derby have been absolutely shite since Rooney took over. Cosgrove - came on as a sub for Birmingham. Lost 3-0 at home to Bristol Main - started for Shrewsbury in a 1-1 draw. Didn't score. Stockley started the game Vs Shrewsbury. Didn't score either! Fraser - Started for Newcastle yesterday. Anderson - lost to Livingston. Useless cunt. No wins for any of the above ex (or soon to be in Anderson's case) Dons! Haven't been hearing much clammer for Anderson in recent weeks. 2 goals and everyone thinks he's the next Joey Harper.

Possibly the only ex Don who had a good day. Link to comment

Some really good mazy runs followed by a sclaffed finish on every occasion. Really needs to learn how to shoot one of these days. Played OK in the main though. Up front as centre forward.

None of us remember that - because we were watching McNamara put in one of the worst performances of his entire footballing career and then go jogging straight down the tunnel once substituted.

A bit harsh, there was one poor finish, but forced two decent saves from the keeper, one of which was a shot from outside the box Link to comment

aberdeen1970 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Aye and Kenny McLean a few wins away from being back in the Premier again after Norwich beat a Forest side featuring McKenna away from home. Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Good. Hopefully keep him at Norwich. Link to comment
Byrne Baby Byrne Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 McLean was generally a good player for us but ever think he should have done a lot better? Used to go missing a hoorin amount Link to comment

All the folk that used to moan about him every week absolutely champion him nowadays as well. Truth is he was somewhere in between while in a red shirt, most of the time. Link to comment

In some regards I think we missed McLean more than any of the players we lost along the way. When he left we lost the capability to keep possession and play through the lines. He took responsibility for getting the ball off the defence and getting play started and had the passing range to link play wide and with the attack. Everything went markedly downhill from a technical perspective once he left and we became really basic and predictable really quickly. Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Not atypical of a McInnes signing though. Was bought (I think) as a number 10, certainly to bring a goal threat from midfield. Ended up deep deep deep in our own half holding Jacks hand taking the ball off him and playing the ball forward to our now static front line. A more than decent round peg in an unnecessarily square hole in my opinion. Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 And yes, agree, technically very good on the deck and in the air. Link to comment

In fact didn't we finish 2nd every single season he was in midfield? 3rd the season before and 4th the 2 after he left. 24 minutes ago, strachanmcgheegoal said: Not atypical of a McInnes signing though.

Far better in the deep lying position in my opinion. Especially when Christie was in the 10.... what a luxury Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I agree. But we then needed to play a decent Nb10 to replace him. Did Christie overlap with him? And yes, Kenny did like his early season sabbatical. Link to comment
