Chewie37 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Is coming home to try and win the league. Love him.Brilliant attitude, but he’ll need help, we’ve had a few players come here with that level of thinking but not had enough in the squad to back them up. Let’s see who DM signs as captain....... Link to comment

Shinniesta Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Is coming home to try and win the league. Love him.Let's hope he can install that same belief into all the other players. Hope he gets the captaincy he's just the type of character needed to lead the team. Should be a great influence on the younger players in the squad. Link to comment

Two real winners in the middle of the park. Brilliant. 1 Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Hence my earlier post. If we found a third complimentary player, Lewis Morgan was suggested but I don’t know enough about him to really comment*, then that appears a solid and hopefully creative midfield on paper, as solid as we’ve had for a while. * comment other than if we’re really truly having a go then a player unable to play against our main rivals is stupid. To be fair it would wind up the hun some more. Link to comment
alscotoz Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Would love to see him guide Ferguson and Campbell through games. If he has the will, could be a future coach. Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Absolutely, and wasn’t discounting Deano for a second. Like what I’ve seen so far. But you can’t rely on a 17? Yo for a whole season. Use him for a season? Hell yes, if they’re good enough, they’re old enough etc etc but don’t go into the season completely reliant on them that’s the point, especially with Dereks infamous no subs till 92 minutes policy.

afc_blockhead Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Not by design we weren’t.How do you work that out? You assume Ferguson wasnt signed to be a first pick. Just because you assume it doesn't mean you are right Link to comment
Sheepo Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 How do you work that out? You assume Ferguson wasnt signed to be a first pick. Just because you assume it doesn't mean you are rightFerguson came in, made a big impression in Pre season and took his chance when it came along, should be the same for Deano this pre season with Shinnie gone it is the ideal time for Deano to show he is up to it.He has had a similar exposure to first team football as Ferguson had this time last year so see no reason why Deano can't kick on and give us a Campbell, Ferguson and Bryson midfield 3 next season Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Ferguson came straight into the first team squad. Its not like he went to the reserve squad. He was in the team right from the start. There was no luck about any of it. We might be surprised that he had such an impact so quickly because we hadn't seen much of him at Hamilton but there's no doubt the club thought he was there to compete for a place right from the start.

fine-n-dandy Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I think Ferguson already has that attitude too. Two real winners in the middle of the park. Brilliant.Agreed. Exactly what's needed mentally for the team & especially in midfield Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Unless he gets injured this signing will 100% be a great success. He is easily a stand out player for SPFL. Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 There’s two separate issues though. Coming in and making an impact which he did right from the Burnley game and then lasting for, what, 40 odd appearances. Are you telling me Derek planned that? Planned to have Gleason and Forrester on the bench too did he? Link to comment
BWG Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Nae sure what the happy clappers are so butthurt over here. Ferguson was certainly not signed to start games over the likes of Gleeson. Just so happened that Gleeson was fucking mince, as was Forrester. Ferguson stepped up and credit to him. Seriously doubt that McInnes thought Ferguson would make as much appearances as he did last season, at the time of signing him. Doesn't take away from the fact that he has been a good signing though and credit to the manager for that. Link to comment

It wasn't luck.I think your being a bit pedantic tbh - the use "lucky" was pretty clearly just intended in a simple sense of the word. I don't think it was suggested that we got "lucky" in the sense that Ferguson turned out to be a good player we signed by fluke or whatever you are reading into it. The actual point being made was correct: we made two absolutely dismal signings for the midfield and thankfully the third one was so good he almost made up for the first two. Link to comment

Credit were credit is due, Derek McInnes played a blinder with the signing of Lewis Ferguson. He knew he had all the necessary attributes to become a first team regular, regardless of his age. After the game down at Burnley when he failed to control such an easy pass that may have led to us taking the lead in extra time, Forrester's limitations were well and truly exposed. As for Gleeson, there is still a player in there somewhere. Link to comment
