We were the best, or I should say a close 2nd best to Celtic.
The best defence, the best leagues goal scorer, the most entertaining team to watch. We knew how to play football and win.
Butcher selected all of our players as he saw something special in them.
Butcher, larger than life character and international player.
Enter Yogi.
Play through the middle?
Play fecking everywhere, what ever it takes. long balls, diagonals, down the channels, down the middle, keep them guessing.
Yogi may or may not have the dressing room who knows, bar giving the youngsters a chance he hasn't scouted for a single player and they may not have heard of John Hughes.
Butchers style of play was boring and we lost fans because of it and they didn't want to come back, sadly they have missed out on 2 great seasons. Thankfully Butcher changed the style of play 2 seasons ago and we haven't looked back, it was nowhere near what it is now.
Yogi has to educate himself as to what his best options are, whats best for him, whats best for the players and the club.
When Strachan took on the Scotland job he quite openly said he didn't have the pool of players to suit his style of play so instead played to the players strengths.
Do I want Yogi sacked ? No, not yet. I actually think he is doing a good enough job of trying to sack himself.
See what you have in front of you, see what works and what doesn't, Butcher changed his tactics too.
Aberdeen have been crying out for pacey wingers for years, problem now resolved on both wings.
Aberdeen struggled to score from open play enter Rooney problem resolved.
Aberdeen go from being under achievers to cup winners, in another semi and on course for Europe.
We aren't Aberdeen but see what you have and play them to their strengths before its too late.
