Hard to see where those extra goals might come from... Craig Curran has outscored Stevie May over the past 5 year. Scoring an incredible 12 more goals than him. Moussa is just the 7 ahead of him. Real coup you got there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You counted? Preferring your posting to the likes of NEFarab and GrannyDanger is a bit like thinking Yellow Fever would probably a bit better to contract than Hepatitis C tbf. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read those Modern Fitba articles, May apparently was getting one of the lowest amount of "goalscoring chances" in the league, and as a whole, Aberdeen are one of the least creative in terms of chances (the majority of shots are within 12 yards of goal, where May wasnt due to his role in the team). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't make it acceptable to score considerably less than a man who doesn't know the meaning of a shot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sort of does, he averaged something mental like 0.2 goalscoring chances per match. Honestly, Aberdeen is an absolute graveyard for attackers who dont just stand on the penalty spot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.T Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Story goes our offer didn't get near Dundees, btw, he simply refused to sign for anyone but Saints.I said a couple weeks back that this would be the case. He said he wanted to sign for you if he was going to leave Aberdeen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin.Hood Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Aye, was pointing that even if hes half the player he was, itll still be a good signing for us considering the competition. This season our strike force is of Nelson and Curran. If either gets injured or for me if Nelson got injured long term this wouldn't be ideal We need players in fairly quick as not so long until season starts. We have had plenty time to get players in and I know mcpake has taken his time in getting players but for me now we need to be acting fairly quickly. Looking at squad this season and only watching 3 games of pre season, if I was asked where would I be happy we finished this season ? Any position in the play offs, any where lower is a fail and jobs would be questioned. Winning the league or coming second I think with this squad we would be over achieving. A few signings before the season starts please.Mon the dees 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 If May only wanted to go to St Johnstone then it's clear that any "negotiation" was just to get them in for him. That doesn't surprise me - nor does it surprise me that we have been the ones mugged off. You would think that the first thing Nelms would have done would have been to see if May was serious about dropping down a division and if he had a preferred destination. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Litt Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I don't care if we've not got Stevie May, he'd command a large part of our budget and other than being a banter signing to piss of St Johnstone fans I doubt he'd be worth it. I do care if we don't have other targets sorted out, which shouldn't be the case as Mcpake did say we had about 15 in mind(although that figure will be exaggerated). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consists of 21 players, 6 of which are the young guns looking to break through..................plus Andrew Davies. After the previous couple of seasons we've endured some may say we're cutting it fine on the quality signings front. Lets hope that considerable list of James was not mislaid at the Apex.
