Vidal keen to extend Aberdeen FC deal

http://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/Article.aspx/1202478

JAVAN Vidal today revealed he would consider signing on loan again for Aberdeen FC next season.

 

Aberdeen FC manager Jimmy Calderwood has confirmed he will speak to Manchester City boss Mark Hughes about the possibility of Vidal returning to Pittodrie after the summer.

 

The 19-year-old City player moved north on loan last January in an effort to gain valuable first team experience and will go home to Eastlands at the end of the term.

 

Vidal has not started a first team game since the March 14 win against Hamilton, but insisted a lack of recent SPL action will not affect any decision to come back to Aberdeen.

 

When asked if he would be open to another loan move to Pittodrie, Vidal said: “Definitely. I have loved my time up here and it’s been great for me.

 

“First team football is what I came for and that’s what I need.

 

“I have played at reserve team level with City for quite a while.

 

“First team football is more appealing to me, so I will just have to wait and see what happens in the summer and take it from there.

 

It is a great city and there is a really good bunch of lads at the club.

 

“I feel I have done well in the games I have played so obviously it is a little bit frustrating just now.

 

“But I didn’t come here to walk into the team, although obviously I want to play every week.â€

Agreed.

 

Fantastic.

 

Although, whenever he did something good, the whole Dons support came out with a chorus "One Sone Aluko"  :hammer:

 

I thought I heard the down market forum posters singing 'two Sone Aluko's'  ;)

Blacks! LOL!

We should definitely extend his deal.

I agree.

 

He will never play for Man City, he should stay  :thumbsup:

Is this based purely on last nights performance  ???

Sounded from radio commentary as if he had a good game

Apart from the St Mirren game, he's done nowt wrong for me at right back.  Last two matches he's been very good indeed.

His link up play with Aluko last night was a joy to watch. They both looked to be enjoying themselves.

He looked excellent last night but I am worried about the number of 'defenders' we are accumulating who are not really defenders.

 

Mulgrew and Vidal are FBs who can't really defend and play better as sort of wing backs come midfielders. Foster is a midfielder who plays FB and apparently now CB, Mair is a CB who plays FB from time to time, Duff is a midfielder who sometimes plays FB, Seve is a midfielder who plays at CB. Have I missed anyone ?

 

So basically Zander and Considine look like the only actual defenders who play in their actual positions.

That's JC and his all-out-attack total football...

Was there ever any real doubt that he would?

Vidal will find it difficult to get employment now.

Everyday I love you less and less.

Are these Kaiser Chefs (sic) puns now? I thought it was bad with the Elton John ones, but Don Stalk has now reached a new low...

Hope the injury isn't too serious....  Would be great to see him make the City first team.

 

During his time at Pittodrie, I've never seen a player improve so dramatically over the space of 4 or 5 games.  A pity he couldn't have continued his development at Pittodrie - technically, a cut above the usual dross we have to put up with.

He was good on his debut v huns. The next two games the team crumbled around him but he still played decent himself. Injury might make hime more likely to come our way in the market...

Can't be that badly injured, he's listed in the squad for the morra night against Sigma! As is Bateman who is away on loan. The BBC is a fucking joke.

 

Aberdeen: Langfield, Vidal, Diamond, Mulgrew, Considine, Pawlett, Duff, McDonald, Foster, Kerr, Aluko, Young, Miller, Mackie, Maguire, Nelson, Paton, Stewart, Clark, Ross, Crawford, Bateman.

 

 

I noticed that earlier TF and thought, if only...if only...

Maybe it's a fantastic BBC scoop ;D
