He left WSW, can’t be thick jokes aside, he’s always come across as pretty grounded. Genuinely excited by his signing.

Yeah me too, how quick is he Manc?  Saw him doing sprints in video put up on the first day back to pre season and he looked pretty rapid but it's not so easy to be sure over such short distances.

Why's that? 

Why wouldn't I want Shankland at Aberdeen?

I think his attitude stinks and he's spent most of his career pissing away his talent.

With respect to Hearts, a player of that talent should be playing on a bigger stage than them and should be a first pick for Scotland (it's not like he's being kept out of the team by far superior players).

That Hearts made him captain might explain the shambles of a season they had last year. He's no leader. He's the first to lose his head in games and his bi-annual meltdowns at Pittodrie show it.

And, from what I hear, Hearts will be paying a fortune to get him to stay. We'd need to at least match that to get him here, which would make him the highest paid player at Pittodrie by some distance.

Would be inclined to agree.  That ship has sailed, bridge is burnt, sheep has bolted etc

He's quick from the couple of times ive seen him

Morris probably just shades him in an all-out sprint, but I'd say he is one of our top 2 in the quick-category

Agree with this. He’s pretty rapid. Also there’s generally a bit of excitement about what he’s going to do next.
