Rumour doing the rounds that Touzani will leave the club today for Sparta Rotterdam.

 

Very baffling if true. We should be adding to the squad but instead it looks like Kerr in, Touzani out. Always liked the look of him, composed on the ball and hard in the tackle. Could have been superb if played consistently in a holding role or at sweeper. Never got the fucking chance to prove it though.

 

Nae happy really

Who in the SPL actually plays 'exciting' football? Falkirk? Bottom 6?

second that jim.  Was just on the beeb website and something that willo flood said make me think of not only touzani but also players like devisch and lovell.  

 

"He knew that I could do the business for him," Flood said of Levein.

 

"When you have a manager who believes in you then you always want to play for him.

 

"You want to feel wanted by a club, that's when you play your best football. It's great to know that I'm wanted by the club.

 

   JC could definitely take note here

 

Yeah, but this could be applied to JC's approaches for Mark Kerr's signature. JC apparently said "look mate, it's time to make up your mind. Training starts with us in three days time, and I want you to be there". Hence why Kerr turned down a host of offers from England to have one more crack at the SPL for a bigger club than Youshitehead

Yeah  fair point RR, i just cant help thinking we've had a few players who havn't played to potential and that maybe that was part of the reason why

Is that an excuse for us not to at least TRY to play exciting football?

That's AFC's moto ... "don't fulfill your potential". See McNamara, Nicholson, Bagshaw, Crawford, Lovell, Whelan ... hell, even stretching back to the likes of Winters, Jess (2nd time around), Gillies and Kiriakov. These are all players who have/had bags of potential and bags of ability, but just failed to produce it whilst wearing the red of Aberdeen Football Club.

 

The manager who can fathom the reason for this is the manager who will take us to our next league title! Needless to say, I don't think JC is that manager. As good as he is, I don't think JC will figure this one out!

Maybe Jimmy IS trying, and these players don't want to join a club like Aberdeen playing in the SPL.

 

Feel free to submit your CV next time the manager's position is vacant and you can try to introduce exciting football.

Let's play exciting football so we can be as bad as Hibs.

What would you rather- exciting, free flowing football, getting beat and ending up with nothing to show for it or how we play now and getting to semi-finals and europe?

People will complain about either option.

I would like exciting free flowing football and getting into finals and Europe.

The two don't really go hand and hand with a budget like ours.

Thing is playing the type of football we play led to us getting humiliated in both semi finals.

Rather a budget like Motherwell's ?

We'll see what they do this season.

Or beating Copenhagen, and drawing 2-2 with Bayern Munich.

 

Every coin...

Canny have it both ways.

Were they entertaining?
