SMcoolJ Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 1 hour ago, BlueGaz said: If we had hit every golf shot perfectly we would be on par with Celtic, so I'm not saying that at all. I would argue that most teams in the SPL need a lot more than a few additions to be on par with Aberdeen this year. For example, what I believe we have done this year that a lot of other clubs haven't, is dominate all but 5 or 6 games totally. We are severely struggling up front and if we had a goalscorer, I genuinely believe that we would be 6 or 7 points clear in 2nd. I think we only needed say 2 players to achieve that. How many other clubs can say that? In terms of widening that gap further, we need a few additions and someone to organise it all, someone who can adapt and change, we havent had that for how long? Didn't need it last year, but feck we needed it this year. I was more highlighting that Aberdeen are only a Hayes, Shinnie and Lewis away from being on a par with any other team in the league. Having those three probably puts us on at least a level playing field with Hearts and Rangers. We are an excellent striker away from being ahead of both Hearts and Rangers. Of course, Hearts and Rangers are a decent addition or two from being ahead of Aberdeen. I actually think Partick are a few players away from being excellent - you get where i'm gong with this.....

Disagree, a Hayes, Shinnie and Lewis wouldnt put you in touch with Celtic at the moment. I think Aberdeen are ahead of Rangers at the moment.

Scotty CTA Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 1. Can you really count money used to repay debt (just to stay solvent) toward that total? 2. Aberdeen are pulling away from the Rangers on and off the field. 3. Supporters pressure and unrealistic demands to immediately be able to compete with Celtic (while spivs are at the helm) can't possibly end well.

Wasn't clear. I meant that Aberdeen are only a Hayes, Shinnie and Lewis away from being a Ross County, Partick or Killie. In other words everyone, with the exception of Celtic, are near enough on a par. Aberdeen, Hearts, Rangers and probably St Johnstone are marginally distinguishable but only because of a couple of stand out players. My original point was that a couple of amazing additions would change any team in the spfl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Motherwell has pipped us for second, and teams such as Hearts, Hibs, Dundee, Dundee United and St. Johnstone have knocked us out of Cups. So that would be another 6 'horses' that I have mentioned (without even talking about Celtic). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
