ParisInAKilt Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 rangers are skint and could well go under yet again so no idea how you can say they are a better option Do players care about that? Allan would just move along again, something's he's very good at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why Ryan Jack will captain his side in the Europa League tomorrow, while Allan's last game he was a sub in the Petrofac Training Cup.

LewisEDI Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Ryan Jack is approximately 7000 time better than Scott Allan. hahah dream on, it's a shame that aberdeen have a track record of producing the square root of badger all for scotland in the last god knows how many years, lets round it up to about 2 decades. All signs point to Ryan Jack ending up the next Darren Young. Edited July 29, 2015 by LewisEDI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrelhumper Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Aberdeen do have a pathetic record of producing Scotland players over past 15-20 years to be fair given the size of the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fraz65 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Duncan Shearer comes to mind for me. Was he produced by Aberdeen? He didnt sign for them until he was thirty. What about Eoin Jess or Scott Booth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaid Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 So in the last 20 years, Aberdeen have produced one player who's had more than 10 caps for the national team. Pretty pathetic all round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMcoolJ Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 As this thread seems in danger of being overcome with nonsense, I wil get it back on track. Shinnie - I thought he was good before he arrived at Aberdeen. I've now seen him 4 times. He is outstanding. Quick, aggressive, great on the ball, decent in the air, superb engine, blah, blah..... I think he should be pushing Robertson really hard for the left back sport. (Just to clarify, I wouldn't have Forsyth anywhere near the starying 11). Agree with PastaMick on Ryan Jack. He plays in the wrong position - it's the one place we seem to have talent in number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't agree with this "wrong position" talk, aberdonian spin. There is much more competition in the attacking midfield positions. Mcarthur is average, fletcher is finished at international level and mulgrew isnt a long term option and there isn't exactly a lot of up and coming youngsters that play defensive mid. in the advanced midfield positions there is snodgrass, maloney, GMS, anya, armstrong, naismith bannan, FORREST etc with gauld, allan and christie hopefully developing into international players.

To date, WGS has selected (or, in my opinion, would select) any two from Cairney, Bridcutt, MacArthur, Morrison, Fletcher, Brown or Mulgrew for the two holding midfield roles ahead of Jack. Accordingly, up until now - Jack hasn't had a look in because we have strength in that area. I tend to agree with you as regards Macarthur. Not sure Flectcher is anywhere near finished and Mulgrew always does well in that role (with the added bonus of it keeping him away form the back 4). This is a big season for Jack. He is captaining the Dons who have the potential to do well. He may make the international breakthrough soon. As regards the attacking midfield role - the moment you mentioned Forrest, I stopped reading! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
