Summer 2021

[super_al]

Apparently Glass states that the squad is close to being complete. There are also young players at the club who they hope to bring on.

Brace yourselves.

I thought this Q&A was a live event? Looks like it’s already been recorded

He said in the preview for later that business is almost done ?

I'm sure that would change if we get the money we want for Ferguson. Signing a couple of spl players for fees is a no brainer when we sell Ferguson.

The squad needs at least two more, probably three. I hope that is what he means by almost done. 

[ThomohawkKid]

Hope so. With a bit of ambition could coup some real prospects at a good price given COVID n clubs needing ££

In a week where the boy leitch hinted at getting crowds back in August and the club pushing season ticket sales, a q&a with  glass and Gunn telling fans that the squad is almost complete, may not be the best PR move.   Totally get the reason why these things happen but timing of this one is a bit weird.

I canna wait to get back into Pittodrie.

I’ll be disappointed if I don’t get to watch the BK Hacken game live.

COME ON YOU REDS!!!

It's a shambles but its still a squad with 5 or so signings that most merry go round scottish managers would make a top six team out of. And I doubt any of said known managers would have chosen to sign two central midfielders. They would have backed themselves to get a tune out of Ferguson, McCrorie, McGeouch, Campbell and Ojo 

Shouldn’t Aberdeen be aiming higher than just top six tho and would any of the usual suspects have been seen as an improvement that gets more fans into the stadium.

Why is no strikers bad for a new manager coming in? 

Would it be better if at the time of leaving we had Darren Mackie tied down to a 4 year contract?

Our defensive record was good last season but Glass didn't want Taylor and Hoban so hopefully he has better things planned. The main problem, as you say, is all the shite midfielders

Why, because every agent and club then knows how desperate Aberdeen are to sign their player which inflates the demands they make. 
 

I see your Mackie and a raise you Joe Lewis. Almost 34, contract until 2024, one of if not the highest earner at the club and can’t play the role Glass wants from his keeper. 
 

Of course the defensive record was good, McInnes had the team setup to play defensive dull football, not lose and to lump the ball forward at every opportunity. Glass on the other hand wants to play attractive attacking football and pass out from the back

I’d prefer 3 or 4 more whole super body’s with hearts beating , that glass and Cormack promised the fans, a few weeks back.   ???

Glass made the decision to sign Woods and made the decision to give him a two year contract. I was shouting before this we wanted to sign some keeper on a one year deal only so that we could consider changing Lewis in January or next summer. It looks difficult now but thats down to Glass.

Budget? Doesnt need to be a problem we can sign a Danny Ward loan if necessary.

Woods is a No.2 even Glass said that and he fits the system Glass wants to play so I don’t have a problem with him getting a two year deal. 
 

Don’t want another loan signing like Ward. That went wrong when he got recalled and wouldn’t want that happening again.

Hibs have offered Kerr less than Shaughnessy is on St Mirren so has told them to poke it. No fee agreed between clubs yet either.

A high calibre loan signing is one way we can afford to and justify dropping Lewis.

Anyways see how we go. Scott Brown will play so deep that I dont think Lewis not being a pler will be exposed as much at the start of this season.

A small update on Jackson Irvine. Seems he isn't staying at Hibs.

Happy Canada Day to our Canadian Dons!

I know how much the Canadian Dons love transfer news - so I hope today provides you with plenty of wild rumours and speculation!

Ha ha, very good. Well if we survive the heat in Western Canada we’ll be able to enjoy the wind ups. You forgot me by the way.

My loon moved across the pond for work a couple of months back.

He was playing football at night on Tuesday in 33° heat?.

Anyhoo back to rumours.

Reckon that Head of Recruitment might be most crucial signing this summer January, 2022 transfer window thread may be more interesting as a consequence ?. Hearing ex Tim Tommy Johnson is right in the frame for the role. However don't think he has any Atlanta connections though......

[StandFree1982]

Messi has become a free agent. 

Presumably we don't need a head of recruitment to know that Messi would be a decent signing for the Dons.....

[Tord31]

Griffiths is also a free agent today. I think that ship has sailed though.

Sailed, hit an iceberg and sunk.

Think I read that Popcorn Teeth said during lockdown(s) whilst other Tim players were solo training to maintain fitness the Thumb wasn't. Thick as fuck I reckon and his career will slide rapidly from here on in .....
