Great watch as always guys Fancy a 2-1 Dons win on Sat Nisbet to score a brace and the boys to get another 3 huge points for the Dons with a well fought win at Pittodrie 🤞
David bit of a different situation can't remember Vinnie throwing his toys out the pram and going AWOL . In my opinion if Jimmy wants to give Duk a second chance then so be it but I do think he has alot to do to convince the support his apology is genuine and not because no other team wanted him .
Yeah think you are right here, the two situations are completely different. We havent heard much of Vinnie's "attitude" that has tarred him last two managers, so maybe Thelin can rid Duk of the attitude that kept him away.
@@RedTintedGlasses I'm just guessing, but I have have the feeling that after a pretty poor season he wanted a new start somewhere and he got some incredibly poor guidance from his agent on how to achieve a move.
I fear we have granted forgiveness to Duk too willingly. His behaviour has been shameful, to accept him back is accepting said behaviour. It may unsettle the squad and undermind the manager. I could be wrong however we won't be aware until we have a sticky period........... He will jump the very minute he has the chance.
I'm amazed how forgiving everyone is regarding Duk. It's like forgiving an ex who cheated on you. Everyone is unrealistically optimistic that he's going to be the same player he was 2 years ago. He'd need to score a hatrick every time he plays as far as I'm concerned. He's a mercenary. And I'll laugh when he scores a goal, kisses the badge, then leaves for the huns as soon as he can.
DUK who knows what will happen Glen a don’t see him getting in starting line up obviously but he we all know he can be a special player on his day and very good impact player to come of the bench don’t see him getting ahead of Keskinen and McGrath in the wide positions from the start.like you mentioned it’s a tough 1 but if he comes back with the correct attitude let him do his talking on the park and will see what happens fingers crossed it’s the DUK from his first season that we all loved
We can't afford not to get Duk back and firing again. Good on the lad sucking it up and apologising. If he hits top gear, he'll destroy a lot of teams.
If we started the season say like Hearts or Killie would he have returned? No he wouldnt, get him training with the kids and forget about him we have a changing room buzzing and him just walking in could unsettle it!
Nice to hear your dulcet tones on a Wednesday! I think Duk will get booed on his return to the pitch. Just for panto spirit if nothing else. It will be interesting to see how Duk handles that vocalization, seems like an ego is present in him (as is in some good players) But it is only Duk that can move things in a positive way and if he does I'll be happy.
Duk tapped up and signing for sevco at end of his contract for free. You heard it here first. OK I'm joking but nothing surprises me anymore. Don't see the logic in getting him fit to then walk out the door for free at the end of his contract at the expense of a player who is going to here beyond the transfer window, a player who wants to be here and who hasn't messed the club around. If I was a backup striker, busting a gut, chapping on the door of the first team, I would be really annoyed being put down the pecking order to make way for Duk. Do we need another disgruntled player on the books?
Good point Jason. I guess the thought of players such as Ambrose, Malloy being signed as "projects" was maybe my thinking that the disgruntlement would be less.. Interesting to see how it pans out
@@-V-K- Aberdeen supposedly turned down. £1m last January maybe others. Yes they can cancel his contract, but you might find under the agreement with Benfica, they could sue for damages.that means they’d have to pay more to Benfica that Duk’s last years wages.
@@-V-K- you’ve obviously seen the contract so I bow to your greater knowledge. I just know if I’d given you something for nothing under the terms that I get 50% when you sell it, and you give it away for nothing after turning down multiple cash offers for it, then I know I’m taking you to court
@johnkeilloh2682 unless it's in the contract that he must be sold if a 1 million plus offer comes in, then you wouldn't have a leg to stand on in court. He is our player and its up to us what price he goes for whether it's 100 million or free....unless as said it's written into the transfer agreement or duks contract.
Fit to dee aboot Duk eh? That is the question, if its the Duk of the majority of last season he'll struggle to get on the bench. I'll leave it up to the capable hands of the manager to fit he thinks is best for the squad.
I saw a photo of DUK on social media he certainly looked trim and fit.

If Vinnie can come back in successfully so can Duk.

I think Peter Ambrose was brought in more for the long term.
Yes and without other players such as Clarkson and Duk we have been forced to play him more than we might have liked
Can see a player in there, just needs time and minutes.

I will eat my hat on a live episode if he signs for that lot!
If I can still speak to my ex wife after the capers I had with her, then Duk speaking to Aberdeen is easy
😂😂😂

He was always coming back he’s not losing £200,000 in wages
Everyone messes up , welcome back Duk, hopefully back to his first season form.
Fans and the team can only benefit if he discovers that form
Agree, but don't think for a second he all of a sudden wants to be here. If he performs, great, but don't be surprised when he's gone in January
Nice to hear your dulcet tones on a Wednesday!

Sure it will be passed off as the crowd saying "Duuuukkk"

C'mon aberdeen the league needs you,you've been asleep for too long.
We are coming for you this season Danny!

Thats all we can do is trust the manager!
