January transfers

[Kilgore trout]

Rooney on stilts.

Nah Rooney didn't win a header in 4 years. and would never have scored a goal like Cosgroves second. Rooney still the most natural finisher since probably Shearer .
Just hope the big man can keep it going for as long as possible.

Adam Johnson must be out soon. Worth a look?

McInnes wouldn’t rule him out

Deary me, some people just have a strange fascination with serial rapists, murderers and pedophiles.

Derek McInnes wouldn’t surely entertain these type of players?

I don't think there'd be any point bringing someone else in up front if Wilson does go. Better saving the money and using it in the summer than bringing someone else in to sit on the bench. As much as he still looks hopeless at times, you can't drop Cosgrove when he's scoring for fun. May seems to be ahead of Wilson in the pecking order, despite the fact that Wilson has scored more and looked sharper. May possibly contributes more all round - I still can't see him getting more than 5 goals all season though.

McInnes needs to forget about shoe horning BOTH Stewart & May in the first X1.
When May plays it means Stewart will invariably spend most of the time wide right.
That's a waste of time.

Play Stewart just off Cosgrove, in the middle of the pitch, in the "10" position
Simple.

May brings very little to the team
Work-rate only - and that should be a given.
His finishing is dreadful and he doesn't look close to scoring.

We also need to get either Devlin or Hoban fit and alongside McKenna to give balance to the centre of defence.

I doubt he nor the club would.
You guys entertain linking these types of players and despicable figures with the club though

I noticed that the three behind Cosgrove (GMS, May, Stewart) all rotated positions against Hamilton.
This could be beneficial if we can pull their team about and create spaces for the likes of Lowe and Logan, or indeed Shinnie or Ferguson to exploit.

I noticed that McKenna predominantly played on the right hand side last night with Considine Left side CH.
I wondered if thats preparing McKenna to go in the next week.

Let’s put this behind us and get right behind Derek. He wants you to make an appointment for him to give you a home visit to personally thank you for your loyalty....please have your will ready.

Despite that being quite funny, you deserve this

[Don_Corleone]

Sweet Jesus Cosgrove has scored another 2 and almost got a hatrick of course you can't drop him. Apart from scoring goals Rooney looked hopeless ALL of the time.

I never suggested that we drop Cosgrove, so not sure what you're getting at? I stated you can't drop him when he's scoring for fun.

Agree with all this - I think you play either Stewart or May off the big man. If they aren't playing that position, they're on the bench. Neither of them are wide players. I'd go with Stewart as he is an infinitely greater attacking threat than May. May works harder and prevents the opposition building from the back, occasionally nicks the ball off the defender or midfielder etc, but he can't score goals. He's a defensive forward - we'd be better playing him as a sitting midfielder based on his 'skillset'.
