Or we could sell Miovski to Southampton for £8m and send Soklar to them.

Shame he's been sacked before getting his well deserved standing ovation at Pittodrie for getting Jim Goodwin emptied.

Thank you, a pragmatist. Almost a dozen new signings, 2 who haven’t even been with us even a week, and one who has just come from the other side of the world. Plus an inexperienced manager dealing with a new season for the first ever time, piecing a team together, blending in new signings some of whom aren’t fit, plus the European situation and trying to qualify for the stronger group tournament. It’s a lot!! I’d say let’s see where we are by maybe the beginning of October? in regard to the league, bar rangers and Celtic (in time), everyone will beat everyone, and it’s who can go on a run and be consistent. I truly believe we’ll get there. three games in with these challenges and we’ve lost one in 3. We’re seeing positives too, even from a shit performance like today, we didn’t lose. killie and st mirren will fall away, we will pick up.

Steady on min,are we going to allow the 10 or so signings a settling in period? Not denying today has been garbage like but...

One of them should grow a Bobby Connor-style tache. Then we can tell the difference

But he isn't though. He gave MacDonald his first start of the season. Had he played Devlin in the back three everyone would have questioned it, he played Rubezic. Maybe Mackenzie shouldn't have started but maybe Jensen isn't fit enough for 90 minutes. He eventually did change Mackenzie and gave Jensen his debut. That's not picking the same back three. But it's a new defence. Are we worse than last season - well, he's lost Pollock and Scales, he's having to work with new guys. Individually all four who played in defence today were poor, but too early to write off Jensen and Rubezic, while we know MacDonald is better than what he showed today. Yellow card.

Very little of that today to be honest. Got a penalty off a rare second half chance, that's all.

Miovski's celebration after the penalty summed up Aberdeen today. After VAR checked it, rather than get the game restarted and go for a third, he runs over to the St Mirren fans and starts showing off the name on the back of his shirt like he's done something special. He had a shocking 90 minutes and scored a penalty. Infuriating. We've got another striker coming in which might give him and Duk a kick up the arse.

Nah I don't agree there. We couldn't pass the ball, that was the main issue. Shinnie seems to be praised as a great leader when we win and as not being good enough when we lose. Robson isn't under pressure no matter what happens on Thursday. He'll be given time. You're saying the team is worse, but eight players started today who were there last season and only Roos played well today. Clarkson in particular had really poor distribution. Robson just an easy target - basic things like passing, tackling, concentration all let us down today.

Game day! How we feeling about this one? Think I stand by my original comments.

Read somewhere that he’s not their no.1 target, sunderland striker is. Regardless don’t want him leaving this season, even if we have already signed his lookalike.

I would want more than 4 for him, he's got 3 years left on his contract. My feeling is 6 minimum but I wouldn't be surprised if there is a min fee release clause in his deal.
