The new Aberdeen FC boss will challenge players with just a year left on their contracts to show their commitment to him by signing extended deals. Those players are Jamie Langfield, Mark Kerr, Gary McDonald, Richard Foster and Charlie Mulgrew. McGhee wants them to sign on and back his long-term vision for the club. McGhee said: “I will talk to those who only have a year left on their contracts, and ask them to extend those deals.†Someone needs to tell him we usually wait until March for this. Also, didn't Langfield sign a deal until 2011 not that long ago? Report

June 15, 200917 yr comment_59634 It's what happens on the pitch that matters. I don't care what is said in the press. Well I can't form an opinion on his tenure so far in regards to on field matters so i'm stuck with what he is saying. Report
