    I know money is tight but surely we probably could have got him for about 100 and that would sort our left back issue
    If all our season ticket holders put in £20, we'd be able to buy him.
    Then its just the wages to think about

    Is he not heading to Rotherham?
    I’m sure I read that somewhere

    Just play Hayes at LB. Considine has been a fantastic servant, but let’s move on. Andy doesn’t do much wrong, but he adds little going forward.

    Looks like Cormack and the US investors are backing McInnes, for now, by bringing in these two. If he wants anymore new players, then he’s going to have to get creative and shed two or three players in order to lighten the wages load. Hedges, Bryson and Logan are 3 that could go now, as far as I’m concerned, reducing the age of the squad in the process.

    Or sell McKenna and bring in a couple.
    We need something to mix it up as we’re turgid.
    Then again it’s the McInnes way to be functional & not have flair

    He adds nothing going forward. He does get a few goals from set pieces fair enough, but he has no pace, cant pass accurately, can’t beat a man, can’t cross a ball. He has none of the attributes a modern day FB needs.

    But he’s big, DM’s number 1 criteria and reason to pick him every week...

    It’s almost sacrilege to criticise Considine.
    He’s a local lad, a good servant to the club, he’s a Dons fan, he gives his all etc.
    All true of course.
    But it doesn’t mean he should be in the first X1 every week of a team looking to progress & improve.

    Considine is superior to the majority of players in the history of our club.

    A week off next week but he wont be out of the side for long

    I think he gets his fair share of criticism - probably more than most players. To be fair to him he probably was one of our best players last season (which isn’t saying much). I don’t think he was the main problem yesterday - I’d be pointing to the central midfield first of all - but it is a general problem that Mcinnes thinks considine is good enough at LB to be a first pick there again. He temporarily addressed it with Lowe and Leigh but we’re back to square one. I don’t think he’s signed Hayes to play him at LB but I wonder if that’s where we’ll see Hoban (even though he isn’t really a LB either)
