They might just be shite in that position.... like Scotland

In fairness he was only at fault for 2 of the 3 goals. 

Is that true?

McInnes is already warming everyone up for Hernandez going out on loan in January. 

Probably be off to Atlanta.

Scotland play Stephen O’Donnell at right back.

He makes football look very difficult. 

[Tord31]

Atlanta are allowed 8 foreign players and they currently have 8 so no space at the moment

Wouldn't be hard to trade one though would it?

Could add to the conspiracy of course. Perhaps waiting to flog Martinez to a European club to create a space.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Can he play left back?

It's all a bit strange. 

We sign Hernandez via their scouting network and they sign Mulraney via ours. 

And neither player is up to much. 

[Tord31]

Jon Gallagher played as out and out striker last night.

Atlanta scored 0 goals.

He's the top scorer.

[paddy]

Loan him to Cove.

It's horrible isn't it? 

He reminds me of Kirk Broadfoot at right-back in the Rangers team with 4 center-backs, that fluked there way to the UEFA cup final.

 

Do we really not have a better option at right back that Stephen O’Donnell? 

He's so agricultural, my eyes almost turn to neeps ?

I think the McGinn from hibs is a better player than O’Donnell

Don't forget that we were after him on a pre-contract not even 12 months back. Our scouting department really excelling themselves there. Thankfully Mrs O'Donnell persuaded him that they'd be better off anywhere else than Aberdeen. 

Although who we got instead is starting to look like a pig in a poke ana

lost 1-0 Hernandez came on as a sub - 2 more caps but nil points

[aberdeen1970]

Seems to be way down the list now. 

Here's a list of players who have played right wing back since he last played 

Kennedy 

Logan 

McCrorie 

McGinn 

Hedges 

McLennan 

[Tord31]

Hernandez. What a signing.

[starryfish]

If he doesn’t get a chance in the two matches v Celtic his days are numbered 

[Tord31]

His next start will be in a competitive match against Brazil. It's a funny old game.

[aberdeen1970]

He'll have Neymar in his pocket!

He wont even be on the bench once we have 3 injured players back

[aberdeen1970]

He'll be getting shipped out on loan in January. 

 

McInnes has already warmed us up for it when he said just when the transfer window closed that if he doesn't get a lot of minutes he will be out on loan. 

And he has absolutely no intention of playing him. 

[ABERDEENROWIE1903]

DM hasn't even given the lad a chance

DM is pissed off  as he didn't  bring him in that was down to chairman

I am surprised the chairman hasn't told him play the boy the investors  must be raging 

Give the boy a run yets see what  he can do

We play a back 3. He's too small to play in that so who in the midfield 5 do you think should be dropped in order to give him a run? Let's face it, Ferguson and McCrorie are stick-on starters every week if they are fit, Hayes in all likelihood will be too. Hedges has nailed down his position it would seem as well and anyway he plays further forward so that's leaving 1 position that Hernandez can realistically challenge for....the right sided wing back role. With Kennedy out injured, that was surely his best chance of getting a run out but it just hasn't happened. DM obviously thinks a Scotland U21 international > a full Venezuelan international. 

I keep coming back to the point that McInnes had the player foisted upon him and just doesn't rate him. McInnes likes his players physically robust, even the smaller players he has signed in his time like Logan, Flood and McGeouch are no shrinking violets when it comes to the physical side of the game. 

I suspect we have spunked £800k down the drain. We really should have tried to get him out on loan prior to the window shutting, somewhere that he could be guaranteed a game to see if he could withstand the physical rigours of the game in Scotland. (maybe we did and nobody was interested...most managers in the lower half of the SPL have similar views to McInnes as regards liking physically capable players). Dundee might have been the best fit for him but now we are stuck with a player who cost a fortune who won't get a game unless we have a massive injury crisis and who might prove to be shite if that were to happen.

[Tord31]

I know we have been over this 10 times already but I still don't believe we've parted with £800k but there is no point in debating until we see the accounts in the first week of December.

Transfer money spent will be a total which will be these four:

Funso Ojo

Matty Kennedy

Mark Gallagher

Ronnie Hernandez

 

 

[Poodler]

Can't believe we paid for ojo

It seemed like a good idea at the time. We were determined to play 4-2-3-1, we couldn't get mcgeouch and we were still flirting with the idea Ferguson was a number 8 or number 10.

[Andy_123]

I’m also starting to doubt Ronnie cost us £800k. No way would we spend that much on a player just to sit on the bench. Even if McInnes isn’t his biggest fan, you’d think Cormack would be telling him to give the guy a chance before forgetting about him.
