Jensen fee agreed a couple of days ago. It's now down to personal terms. As for Isak, the guy only scores every 113 minutes. That sort of stat is never gonna dislodge Peter Ambrose as first choice

Back in training. Hopefully back for St Mirren game on 25th.

Fair play to the club, no fucking about this window. If they’ve got a striker lined up it’ll be perfect - on paper!

Told you

Chill min Deal is done

I think that the McKenna thing was overplayed to criticise him to be honest. McKenna got in because we were shite at the back and he continued with him after he performed. McKenna himself was very complimentary on McInnes' input and the confidence he showed in him.

Don’t set the bar too high there that said, how else would we continue going off topic and being able to update our shite CB pairings?

Big Alfie on board. Not many nineteen year olds come in and manage at centre half, so it'll be interesting. I'm hoping he could be the next Rhys Williams.

Jesus. I've just reviewed the highlights. The lad who was playing just as shit as Ambrose... turns out to be Duk! Feck, maybe I am racist after all

Aye, only around quarter of a century out with the caretaker manager. Not too bad.

Pretty sure McInnes gave him his debut in Scottish Cup against Dumbarton just before he was sacked.

There are studies in the U.S. that now suggest that artificial surfaces can lead to more non contact knee and ankle injuries. There are also a couple that suggest injury recovery time is longer on artificial surfaces as well. https://www.center4research.org/injuries-related-to-artificial-turf/

I think it’s easy to pick holes at mcgarry as we all know he’s not very good, but recently he’s been terrified to push forward. Thought he played more on the front foot today and got up the park, but obviously that leaves space behind. You expect that and it happens with Makenzie too. That’s what covering defenders are for, plus the holding mids. I’d rather he played this way than played scared, and I’d rather play him who is trying than Mackenzie who is clearly off his game and either unsettled or focused on a move away and a new known or unknown club.

Bit harsh on McGarry. He played okay for a guy who hasn't had a lot of minutes. MacKenzie has been poor of late, he'll occasionally let folk in behind him and is poor in the air, however he doesn't switch off the way McGarry did a couple of times today. There was one in the first half where he forgot to track his man completely, and then once in the second where their fullback had the ball and the winger was in behind McGarry. It wasn't his fault that he was out of position as the move had broken down, but instead of going full belt into the winger to take man and ball, he just froze and they played the simple triangle round him and set up a very good chance. He was miles from being the worst player today, but it's those things that make it fairly clear he doesn't have what it takes. We were the better team today and earlier in the season we'd have scored either the one from the corner (which looked like a phenomenal save from Gordon) or one of Keskinen's. Fantastic save from Doohan, preventing what would have been an undeserved loss (they didn't do anything of note in the game). I'm still not convinced by Morris, despite his purple patch, but we do need to be giving him more time if he's expected to impact the game. How on earth Okkels got as long as he did, I've no idea. He basically waited for him to collapse. I don't think I've seen a guy have so little impact on a game and remain on the pitch. I'm sure he'll improve, but we don't need to be giving him anymore than a half to work on his fitness and sharpness. I liked the look of Tobers, think he'll be good for us. I really hope someone signs Duk this window, I hate that I've still got a flicker of expectation every time he comes on, and I still get completely frustrated when he puts in another shite performance. That bollocks towards the end where he was given an easy pass to collect, and he let the defender come and get it and threw himself to the ground to try and get a freekick nearly made my head explode. He's gone from hero to useless diving cunt. Nisbet made a few nice passes in the first half, especially that beautiful through ball for Keskinen, but just seems to lack any energy. It's like he doesn't want to be there. We need a number nine ASAP.

Mcgarry has looked alright today

I think you probably do really. Anyway, the basic issue is that if we end up by next season having a squad where 95% of them are foreign what the hell is the point in supporting your local team? May as well just start watching Liverpool or Man Utd if I want to see 11 foreigners running about in red shirts.
