Has McInnes done well at Aberdeen? Maybe. Has he proven himself to be a good manager? No.

I don't think he's very tactically astute. I don't think he's got an eye for a player. I don't think he's a good motivator.

He is a young Walter Smith. If in doubt, get more physical. Unfortunately for McInnes the big leagues and best teams don't need to worry about attributes like height and heading ability because they're technically better, quicker and more intelligent.

He's a dinosaur. Albeit a very young one.

Cardigan advising Sunderland? Get McInnes out of Aberdeen and help ra gers. That'll be the tactic.

Do you rate McInnes highly as a manager ?

To answer the question, I'd say he's done Ok. Should have pushed us closer in run-in last two year.

Point was that Aberdeen could be destabilised if he goes, potentially helping sevco get higher up the league.

If I was Sunderland, I wouldn't be having anything to do with what the auld bigot suggests, then again they have appointed bain to a crucial role. Unbelievably badly run club.

While I hope he is greeting like the uber hun he is later today, to say 'maybe' in questioning whether McInnes has succeeded at the Sheep with three consecutive 2nd placed finishes and a league cup win when he took over a team that finished in the bottom 6 four seasons running is letting (understandable) bias cloud your judgement... :lol:

Until this season he's had the 2nd biggest budget in the league with Hibs, Hearts & Newco away.

He's won the same number of trophies as John Hughes, Jim McIntyre, Danny Lennon, Kenny Shiels, Tommy Wright & had more cup horror shows in that time than we have which takes some doing.

No ones arguing that he's a clueless moron, he clearly isn't just that he's not as good as he's being made out to be.

Don't think he was really either. Just wondering if Mubo applied his McInnes "success" criteria to Deila, given his previously aired opinion of him. :lol:

I doubt someone who got sacked from a side that were bottom of the Championship would even be considered to manage the second best team in the country.

If it wasn't for his hun connections McInnes wouldn't get half the stick he gets on here. He has improved Aberdeen no end in the past few years and if he leaves they will be hard pressed to get someone similar or better.

Dundee United could do a lot worse than go for Alex Neil as their next manager if McKinnon goes. Neil might have bigger ambitions than United though.

I think Neil will get a better gig than that.
