fine-n-dandy Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I am certainly not writing him off after that one game but that was a really shite game.He had one decent header chance & it was a defenders header. Actually scratch that because Considine would have buried that.Cosgrove was terrible today. Not a lot of service tbf to him but EVERYTHING he did do was honking. May was worse. Maybe Anderson & Cosgrove would have been a better two but on another day because today Cosgrove was a complete waste of a shirt. Will give Cosgrove benefit of doubt & time/chance to play some time in a TWO as that is all he's any use for imo but we need to sign TWO more strikers & right now Anderson is our No.1 choice up front 1 1 Link to comment

RAZOR Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 606 minutes of raw talent without a goal now. Link to comment
King Street Loon Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Cosgrove was dirt today.That header in the first half was abysmal.GADS!! Link to comment
Guest milne_afc Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Cosgrove will never score a competitive goal. Absolute joke of a player at that level. Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Didn't realise that was his first game...you ken fine what I meant.That one REALLY bad game.He was shite today & as I say, I will not completely write him off after that one really bad game. Especially not until I have seen that he is shite in a two man attack. Which he hasn't had chance of yet really & that is what he looks most suited for, or of ANY use in. WHEN we sign our decent penalty box striker. The Rooney replacement. I want to see Cosgrove given a chance to play with him before I will write him off. Cosgrove (like Stockley before him) aren't the main problem. McInnes & his tactical shite is. The fact McInnes signed Cosgrove & seems only willing to play him as a lone striker is fkn shocking & shows how bad a manager he is tactically. Cosgrove is NOT a lone striker & never will be.

Yorston Vasey Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 606 minutes of raw talent without a goal now.606 Cosgrove minutes and no goals. 19 Anderson minutes and one goal. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Maynard was probably around the 500 minutes and got far more criticism for being a joke 1 Link to comment
Yorston Vasey Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Maynard was probably around the 500 minutes and got far more criticism for being a jokeI'd looked Maynard up on Transfermarkt and he is 361 Premiership minutes and 72 League Cup minutes so 433 minutes. Cosgrove far eclipsing that but getting very little grief in comparison. Link to comment
RUL Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 It's a tough watch.. I thought stockley was bad but he got bearable? His overall game just seems fucking brutal. Maybe if he flukes a goal he might turn it around. Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 It's not going to happen with Cosgrove. I don't care if he was "cheap as chips" Link to comment
V for Vendetta Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Problem with Cosgrove is he's just not ready for this yet. He's a cheap under developed player with perhaps a bit of potential if coached well. But due to a complete fuck up in the striker department of our squad building he's suddenly our main striker. Should be playing in he reserves and coming off the bench in games to ruffle defenders for the last 10 minutes. Not leading the line for us. Link to comment
terenceandphilip Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Cosgrove is not up to it. Maybe ok as 4th choice off the bench, but that's about it. May doesn't look much better, albeit a completely different player. Link to comment

V for Vendetta Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I've yet to see any of this potential you speak off.It's about 2 years of work away frankly. Hence he shouldnt be relied on as a starter any time soon. Terrible situation to be with the squad right now. Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Cheaper and younger I suppose. Stockley was also going to be a marked man with the referees up here after taking out Tierney's teeth. Plus we got a fee for him. Link to comment
RUL Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Ive nae been following the comings and goings much of late But, why get rid of He-man (Stockerz) and replace with a shitter lookalike? Maybe they thought we wouldnt notice (I almost didnt) I think Stockley wanted out and the club had found Cosgrove, strangely believing he was at the same level. I think Mcinnes initially said he wasn't for the first team but here we are... Link to comment

I think Mcinnes initially said he wasn't for the first team but here we are...When he signed he said he wouldn't feature much and was a signing for this season. Since that Tims game, he's barely been out the team. He's absolutely dog shit in my opinion. Link to comment
King Street Loon Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 He ruffles feathers, but that's about it.We're screaming out for a striker. Link to comment

I only ever remember Krisjannson starting once (home to Huns ironically). If he played again then I don't remember it. 606 minutes. Wow. 1 Link to comment
