Comrade 86 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Three seasons with the club, his last was statistically his best averaging just shy of 7.00 per game on Whoscored rankings. Only POTY Curtis Davies did better on 6.96 with Shinnie having himself been voted Fans Player of the Season the previous year. Lest this also be 'forgotten', he achieved this at a rather better level than that at which we currently reside and the ratings also indicate that far from being in decline, his performances improved year on year over his time at Pride Park. But yeah, not good enough for us in L1 ? Steve How Hard? and jono 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, not good enough for us in L1 ? Playing more than 30 minutes in a game, he has been on the winning side 9 times in the last 54 games he has been involved in. Was involved in 5 wins for us last season in 22 games, and when he was out of the squad directly before he left, we won 3 and drew 1 in those 4 games. What's the saying about stats?

CWC1983 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 He's exactly what Aberdeen are needing at the moment. Leadership in the middle of the park. He won't be the same player that left to come south, but he should have a few decent seasons left in him. It says much about his character that Lampard brought him down and then left to join Chelsea soon after. Cocu obviously didn't fancy him and he was kicking his heels on the bench at the start of the season. Fast forward a few months and he was a certain starter.

Think Kelle Roos might need a hot bovril though. Where’s Inverurie Ram with that song ? CWC1983 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archied Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Best of luck to him ,, sometimes you get a player who just gets the club he’s joined , is proud to play for them , gives his all and is an honest solid pro ,, shinnie was that at derby , that said ,bringing players back rarely turns out great sunnyhill60, Steve How Hard? and Comrade 86 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His family had moved back home and he'd spoken about struggling without them for the last year. He's now got the move back home to be with his family. Derby isn't and will never be his "home" as you refer to. I worked on a lovely French farm in my youth for a few summers, yet I'd never move back. I'm very happy raising a family in my hometown with both sets of grandparents here for the kids. I'm sure when you have a family, your current priorities in life will drastically shift, it's just natural. Day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
