Cosgrove and Main are both donkeys. Neither is the answer.

Totally agree, Edmondson is also a donkey but all 3 are examples of the type of striker Mcinnes likes. Watkins was just something a bit different for a change that forced us to play it more on the floor and brought Wright and Hedges to the fore

Can't agree with that. It's not striker's fault that their service is 40 yard "passes" fired at their waist 

I reckon Scott Wright is the biggest miss at the moment.

Holy fuck Curtis Main.

Cunt can hardly even run and is just a roid version of Mackiegol.

He’s fucking useless ?

I would rather have Mackie that's how bad Main is

[Redmist1903]

Watching Curtis Main trying to take down and control a football is akin to watching a drunk man stumble about trying to catch a balloon. This cunt is embarrassingly shit, get rid.

[Betty Swallicks]

Terrible style of play. Hoofing it 40 yards at knee or waist or chest height to 2 forwards who can't control the ball.

I fucking knew McInnes would mention the wind in his interview. Keep the ba on the deck then ya dick.

But even then a good target man will be able to control it on his chest no problem at all.  Some actually prefer it into the chest as it's harder for defenders to get a foot or head on it. 

The likes of Dykes and Nisbet are both capable of that.  As well as putting a bit of running in for the team.

It was actually. We had Scott Wright & Hedges playing well and linking the play from McCrorie/Ferguson to the forward areas. It wasn't 45 yard passes to Watkins' midriff all game. 

It was better because Watkins could hold up a ball and is intelligent. 
 

I do agree a bit that our centre halves take the easy option and lump it more when Main and Cosgrove play. No doubting they are fucking shite however.

[Betty Swallicks]

We've 6 wingers/wide players in the squad but cant get the ball wide to get crosses in to the two massive forwards so end up just lumping it up to them and more often than not its miscontrolled. Brutal viewing.

Watching him yesterday reminded me on the “bouncer” the Tanned One signed for £100,000 when he was running out of time before the window closed and he had to sign someone. 
So memorable, his name escapes me but he was fucking useless too

[Dom Sullivan]

I’ve just remembered

 it’s Tommy Wright

he was shite

?

[frankie_mac's_4]

Mutually agreed early release from his contract (Bolivian marching powder type of mutual agreement) if I mind right.

But aye, he was horrifically shite.

Always remember mcinnes originally saying he could only play Campbell in certain games, as he was a "technician"

Sorry, but I've yet to see that,  he was getting bummed up like he was some bloody Iniesta type!

Given your status as No1 talent identifier on AFC-Chat this is devastating news...

He thought the lad we signed on loan from Man City was a player (Chidi Nwakali?).

He’s one of the worst midfielders ever seen in a Dons shirt.

To paraphrase... he’s a clueless cunt.

I loved him, Tommy Wright

Loved him at least for absolutely nailing Stephen craigan

He was absolutely fucking dire. 

100k. JC got stitched up there bigtime. 

Met him in sizzlers on windmill brae, honking, one saturday night.  Clearly gave zero fucks about being a professional fitba player.

[Guest milne_afc]

Having his battles fought for him at his age isn’t a good sign tbh.

I agree. Aberdeen should sign someone as good as Sadio Mane. He'd do loads of goals.

More impressed with the young St Mirren centre midfielder McGrath.

24 though and 18 months left on his contract

Is he better than Alan Campbell? In my opinion he is not.

Can see Campbell being sought, but likely as a replacement for Ferguson
