Just thought I'd join to give a bit of an opinion on Aouchiche.
Technically he's a really good footballer. Due to injuries he spent a lot of his time with us out on the left wing, which probably explains the lack of goals. Even when it was obvious that he wasn't going to be part of the plans, he always gave 100% whenever he was called upon and had a brilliant attitude.
Probably lacks that bit of pace that can make all the difference in terms of making it at the very top, but he's a good passer of the ball, creative if given any time on the ball, and can play in a few positions. Suspect he'd see himself as a 10 but he's one of those players who you can probably use anywhere in midfield.
When we sent him out on loan last season a lot of our fans thought we should have kept him in and around the squad due to being a good option who never let us down. I expect you'll find almost every Sunderland fan has nothing but good things to say about the lad and, if he feels at home in Aberdeen, I think he could be very effective. Will be looking out for him and hope he does well, even if he ends up moving away permanently. Find him a settled position, have runners around him, and you'll have yourself a very good player, best of luck
