Barjonas, Barker, Jones, Middleton and Edmundson out with Simpson and Wright coming in would be a really good window in the circumstances.

They’ve now dropped the same number of points as we did last season, having played 5 fewer games.

Celtic end the day closer in the table to St Mirren than to Rangers. And St Mirren have a game in hand too.

The Shane Duffy thread on Kerrydale is hilarious. I just can’t believe how the mistakes have just kept coming.

We need 20 points (or 19 assuming we keep our GD advantage). So 7 wins will do it.
7th game would be Parkhead, although people had been saying we could only win it at Parkhead if we both didn’t drop points till then. Not sure if I’m missing something.

On the face of it another interesting signing for the defence. Given he's also left-sided, one wonders if Balogun and/or Helander will still be here next season?
Helander is here for the long term, nothing to do with him imo. It’s between Balogun, Katic and Edmundson.
Balogun’s contract expires as he turns 33. I expect us to extend that by another year but I wouldn’t be a shocked if we didn’t.
Katic is returning from a season out and in my opinion should be loaned out to regain fitness and see how he does.
Edmundson’s COVID transgression may spell the end for him, I hope not.
Two of those three won’t be here next season IMO, at this moment I would guess Katic goes on loan and Edmundson moves on but my preference would be for Edmundson to stay.

Oh, a mention for Zungu too. He was excellent when he came on. We are all still working him out, but he was really good tonight.

I know he scored but the difference between the hold up play of Roofe and Itten compared to Alfie was night and day.
Nothing new there. Roofe’s hold up play is elite level. He has the combination of all the attributes you need and what a difference it makes. Itten not at that level but still very good from what we’ve seen.

Big 3 points. Comfortable too. Crucial game time for Jack and Roofe too. Loads of positives.

Itten is immense, are we sure he’s not a better player than Morelos up front? He is way better at holding up the ball.
I think he is, not a popular opinion though

Itten has been really good too. Ball sticks to him, good passes, fast and wins a lot of free kicks.

Itten assaulted by a 70's porn star there.
I was going to say the exact same thing ?

Roofe’s hold up play and link up play is on another level. Just brilliant.

My word, McGregor still has his pace

We’re playing some good stuff here. Kent is on form. Hibs showing there though that you can’t take anything for granted. We should be out of sight by now.

Hagi dropped as soon as Jack is back ?♂️ disappointing, I hope he is given more game time than he was before Jack’s injury because he has earned it. Line-up looks strong though, pleased Helander is getting a run.

Barisic for me. I thought he was very good and one of our biggest threats throughout. Davis was very good too.

Sounds like he's shoehorned into Aberdeen's dreadful style.
Do you think he might suit our style better?
(I've not seen their games, and have no desire to do so.
)
Yeh he will. For a start he will get far more opportunities to run the ball and link up with other attacking players. I saw on their forum a number of them saying they play better football when he is in the team and Hedges is at his best when Scott Wright is playing. I think he could be a very decent backup player. One concern I would have is his finishing, I noticed in the highlights he isn’t exactly clinical. We’ll see I suppose.

Really interesting signing. Can’t be denied that it will raise a few eyebrows as he hasn’t played a big part at Aberdeen. He seems to fit the bill for a backup with Stewart not getting games and question marks over Jones. In the lead up to their equaliser against Celtic you saw a flash of brilliance from him, exceptionally close ball control followed by a deft through ball. He basically created that equaliser single handedly. But he hasn’t done that often. I have watched almost all their highlights from this season and he has very much been a supporting act. Interestingly, Aberdeen seem to have tried to get him playing like Kent, through the middle despite it not being his natural position. He runs at the defence as a decoy before playing it out to Hayes to cross in space a lot. We have obviously seen enough in him to bring him in so that’s good enough for me.
Aberdeen will be desperate to get it done in this window now because they are desperate for cash and now that he’s going anyway I imagine they would much rather a cash boost than to keep a player their fans hate for another few months. Every game they start him there would be an outcry, it’s not good for anyone (not least McInnes who is getting a lot of abuse on the back of this). The player will be desperate to get away from that city too now that he is public enemy number one so I think a deal will be done near the end of the window. Aberdeen are in a very weak bargaining position though and I expect Rangers to take full advantage of that and to drag things out till Aberdeen eventually settle for what we are offering.

We have equalled our points total of the 16/17 season. 3 points and we will equal the 17/18 season total.

Helander starts so I'm very happy. Happy that Hagi keeps his place too and a welcome return to the bench for Jack and Roofe. If I was being greedy I would have liked to see Itten start too but hopefully he gets more time than usual off the bench, it should be acknowledged that he bailed us out at Fir Park.

Speculative, yes, but he often just doesn't connect properly. He tries to get the perfect hit, with power, and it often goes wayward. If he would take the power off it, and try to direct it a little more he'd get more success, for me.
Remember, this is just the carries; where it stops is where the next action takes place. Nevertheless, I agree, he's quite far out, which makes it more difficult to get the assist. (I wonder where Hagi releases the ball?)
Yeh I'd forgotten it was just carries in my previous comments. Hagi doesn't carry the ball much but I think he does most of his work around the box.
