He had two excellent seasons with us, scored some quality goals, while coinciding with some absolutely god awful football. We became route one long ball, and I hated how we played. Read somewhere cosgrove got injured and isn’t the same player now, not sure how accurate.

We strike out on all of our targets, and are left to choose between Fraser Hornby, Curtis Main, Sam cosgrove, or go all in on Ambrose? Or do we play with 10?

Given the secrecy of our signings, were we even in for him???

Another one here, as I said before, a bit palaversa-ish, highly regarded youth who has lost his way.

interesting lad!

Hard to tell but perhaps since Maddison and Christie? We’ve been crying out for a 10 since them, thought McGrath may be the answer but we stuck him out left for various reasons. Interesting type of signing, a bit like palaversa, a young hot prospect who lost his way. Unlike the one year deal that can be extended that we gave to palaversa, a loan with option to buy isn’t that different. Hope he’s a winner!!

It’s worries me when people get this enthusiastic. I was excited when I saw highlights of Ambrose! At the same time, I’m liking the attributes and info on our signings, including a tank of a forward. We seem to have signed decent flare and pace, and players who have a positive reputation. This guy is intriguing, and an option to buy is a good thing. Still think we are missing our best 9, maybe he’s the missing link?

Interesting that we sign three aussies, then we sign this guy who played with Portsmouth so has played with yengi. And we are linked with another Frenchman. Seems a common theme to help players settle that they have some sort of link??

I don’t expect to see shinnie and sivert playing together a lot. Think Clarkson and palaversa did well enough last year that between those two, polvara and the new guy, plus a potential new #10, the two oldies may be rotated.

So, that’s quite a move! Although maybe it’s one of those signings where they immediately send him out on loan, to us.

Still nothing suggesting £10m for Ambrose to replace lukaku at Napoli?

According to his interview he was a forward and a winger until a coach moved him into the no 6 holding mid role.

Why not? We have two old guys, Clarkson, palaversa, and polvara. Youth in midfield was desperately needed, especially since Milne is a defender.

Doesn’t help that our interviewer (mal??) is awful. We need a proper reporter/interviewer as we develop and improve our online/social media presence. He’s very amateur. Reminds me of the commentators before we had Rob McLean. His questions are very poor and he doesn’t help the guy at all.

apologies for the source, certainly sounds a first team player. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/kartan-mar-kjartansson-seals-aberdeen-35497797?int_source=amp_continue_reading&int_medium=amp&int_campaign=continue_reading_button#amp-readmore-target

I thought they were waiting for the huge stand free tattoo to dry on his forehead before announcing shankland at cormack park?

I know I’m in the vast minority but I’d take shankland in a heartbeat, the fact he’s a dick doesn’t concern me, much like brown was a dick. Bonus that he’s homegrown/scottish. As much as shankland and Anderson are an upgrade on sokler and Ambrose, plus shankland is better than nisbet, would still be underwhelming despite the pick up of Scot’s.

Got the home top today, I really like it!!!

Too long to read your whole post but I think I may agree with you. There is a missing link as many need a step up but not good enough for regular first team minutes. Dare I suggest reserve league again?? Even add a cup competition for u23 / a player who has played less than x first team games? We need something for these guys as I do believe this contributes to a loss of Scottish/local players.

If the offer is good enough any of our players would be sold. Rama lasted one season, that’s the nature of the trading model. if we get a £20 offer tomorrow Ambrose would be heading to the airport.

I don’t think Duncan had the explosive pace to play winger. I actually wondered if he’s a leftie, could he be left back? Ultimately I don’t think either are good enough or ready for extended minutes, hence the potential signing.

We have three, topi, Morris who it hit/miss and a guy to come off the bench, and an Aussie who can also play centrally and up top, but we’ve no clue if he’s a stud or another mcgarry. I’d say we need one more. Vinny is leaving. Gueye isn’t a wide player. Am I missing anyone??

Ordered. We’ve had better and worse, it’s fine. Part of my ‘season ticket,’ red tv being the other!

Can we not just do £40m, £6m is a much cleaner number to receive? Easier on the accountant.

Assume it’s just an agent trying to get interest, but I’d be pretty meh if it happened anyway. He was pretty decent with us but also pretty shit for many games. Think we can unearth better. If it was bojan to the Huns or tims I’d be crushed, this one doesn’t phase me.
