Scott Wright

I still think he would do a better job than anyone else we've got in the no10 role at the moment, linking midfield and attack - even if he's only good in 1 game out of 3 he'll be better there than May, and probably contribute more than Stewart who just looks too slow and ponderous. He's had plenty game time at Dundee and he's chipped in with some assists and goals in a struggling side, so the experience will hopefully benefit him when he returns in the summer.

Got a funny feeling Scott Wright will be let go by McInnes. He didn’t get used to his full potential and that hindered the lads development. We are too defensive for having Wright in our team so he is of no use to the mantra of how our esteemed buffoon wants football played. Shame, as the lad could certainly have been a very decent player.

It’s a bit odd that some people criticise McLennan for not making the right decision at times by taking an extra touch or trying to beat a defender when he would be better off shooting or crossing,some have even said that McLennan will never make it with us unless he improves on these things.

I would say McLennan has a hell of a better chance of making it with us than Wright has,he nearly has more goals and assists than Wright has in over 50 games.

And that includes the hatrick he scored against a Partick team who were already on their holidays.

McLennan is an excellent player who if used properly will be absolutely fantastic for us. He could be worth a few bob more than Scott McKenna if utilised properly. Young players make the wrong choices now and again but hey so do our senior players. We as a club should be trying our best to let these players learn and give them the confidence to take themselves and our club to the next level. McLennan is a prospect and a half....he will get even better if used correctly.

Is he being given the opportunity and being used correctly at the moment?

A fit Mackay-Steven would have seen him dropped.
In fairness to Del he has given the lad a chance but still doesn’t use him properly a lot of time. We need a better thinking attacking approach during matches and this young lad would have a field day. Better attacking players around him will without doubt make him even better than now.

I think the difference between McLennan and Wright is their physicality - McLennan is better built for getting booted about the pitch and he can hold off challenges better than Wright who's pretty brittle. Ability wise I think they're both very good. They both have pace, directness, skill, a decent shot from distance and good finishers.

I think McInnes drops these types of players and switches them around and plays them out of position far too often. Wright would play well one match, be played out of position the next, get 5 minutes off the bench the next, then be completely dropped the following week. McLennan has benefitted from injuries and McInnes has given him a reasonable run in his favoured position.
