TrebleTwenty Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 One thing is for sure. He could become fans favourite. He probably knows what he needs to do to achieve this status with the fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highland_mechanic Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Well this signing has certainly increased the interest in AFC. I am looking forward to seeing Scott Brown in a red shirt. If it makes us even less popular with the fans of all the other clubs then bring it on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksgranda Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 7 hours ago, AJF said: I think it would be a gamble that I personally wouldn't want to be taking on Griffiths, but just because he hasn't got himself fit for Celtic doesn't mean he can't for anyone else. I think it's been well documented how poor the coaching has been at Celtic so that may be a factor. He maybe just needs a different mentor or motivation to get him going. I'd say it's unlikely but not impossible. Take him on for a fortnight's trial to see how he does... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mixed feelings about this, but it is important that Glass gets his top targets in and Brown was obviously somebody he really wanted to have here as both a player and a coach. I would probably have said earlier in the season that he wouldn't get into our midfield with the form of Ferguson and McCrorie, but he would walk into it on recent evidence. Isn't that all he's capable of now... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarleyQuinn Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Declan Gallagher and Leigh Griffiths next? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illgresi Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 No doubt a fit, motivated Griffiths would be a brilliant asset. The problem is, how many players can we say that sort of thing about in our team already; he'd be great if he was fit, he'd be great if he was consistent...etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menzel Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 4 hours ago, TheDon99 said: Something has to be said regarding the Logan Tonev situation. Brown and Celtic came out and publicly backed Tonev even after he was banned. They publicly called Logan a liar and the Celtic fans lapped it up and continued to abuse him for years. This is the exact same method Slavia are using with there player and yet it's socially accepted in Scotland that they are crazy for it. I can accept Brown at the club if they come out and apologises for what happened the same way Henderson and Carragher have come out and apologized for the way they handled the Suarez/Evra situation. This is pretty much my view on things. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Aberdeen he likely would be. If we can afford him and he is willing to come, we aren't in a position to turn down that sort of quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyQuinn Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 We need 3 strikers. Bruce Anderson appears to be one of them. I'd welcome Marley Watkins back and I'd take Leigh Griffiths (if we can get him fit). Two centre backs. Doubtful but I hope Hoban stays. Declan Gallagher would be an improvement on Devlin and Taylor (POTY). A left back. McKenzie showed promise last week. Hayes has been poor for a while. Julien Serrano has always looked impressive. A right back. Possible return of Ronnie Hernandez (His loan ends in January though)? Stephen O'Donnell? I've heard the rumours he and his wife aren't fans of Aberdeen. At least one winger (hopefully two). McLennan and Kennedy haven't been terribly great for a while now. We are midfield heavy. We already have Scott Brown, McCrorie, Ferguson, Dean Campbell and McGeough. Wouldn't be surprised if we saw a few players moving on in the form of McGeough, Ojo and possibly Kennedy. Glass may want to loan a number of Atlanta 2 players and we may see another Hernandez type signing. He really needs to reassign the captaincy to someone not the goalie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leith Green Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 22 minutes ago, HarleyQuinn said: I'd take Leigh Griffiths (if we can get him fit). On his fitness - Current season he has played 656 minutes of league football, last season 879, season before 571. For context, some Hibs fans were concerned about Jamie Murphy (injury prone, too old etc etc)............and, tbf he has missed a few matches to injury and those v Rangers - but has already played over 1200 minutes for us. I love sparky, but that is not great reading especially for what will be a (very) sizeable salary. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 If he Simmies Jack at Pittodrie at some point then I think fans might take to him a bit tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 On Gallagher, clearly a capable defender but is no one else put off by the way its ending at Motherwell for him? Seems to be acting the c**t a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
