Who goes: James or Aaronson - Poll of the Day (21st Sept)

Post by **1964white** » Mon Sep 21, 2026 2:09 am

No sitting on the fence

As Jaydog posted

Dan James v Brendan Aaronson.
One goes one stays.
That would be a good poll.
Both divide opinion.
Both seem to lack an end product at times.
Both seem nice lads and not egotistical.

Neither
BRENDAN is a terrier an DAN is a whippet.
Our defence is border collies, the midfied is rottweilers and the attack is Xl bullies

Our defence is much stronger than border collies.

The midfield were far from being rottweilers yesterday.

But border collies main asset is intelligence and they know how to position themselves

Both, Aaronson is too weak at this level and James is too inconsistant unless he's playing for Wales ,looks to have lost a yard or two as well

As it’s an either or poll I’ll go for Aaronson, he’s had a really poor start to the season and has started to fill me with dread when I see him warming up.

They are going nowhere

Farke loves them

They say good morning boss, run around in training and nod at everything he says.

All it takes, all mistakes forgiven.

Aaronson or as we call on our whatsapp group YT, sure you can work out what it stands for, far too light weight, no skills, just chases the ball like a bulldog, he did use to get us free kicks but even refs dont fall that now a days.

Squad players! Have both just got new contracts of just BA?

Aaronson.

Not a big DJ fan and think his pace is starting to go (which given its all he has isn't great).

But I've never known a player like BA.

Never ever seen anyone lose the ball as much or spend so much time on the floor.

He can go months without a single meaningful positive contribution.

Both are useful members of the squad.

I've never seen a player play football like that since my days in the playground and that one kid who used to just run to where the ball was, I used keep away in the game to describe him, he's a low IQ footballer. It's worrying he's the first change and for Tanaka who's a far superior player.

Where's the neither button ?

"Follow the ball" is a core principle of the Red Bull system.

It's what Aaronson knows.

Probably why he has no real footballing IQ?

James. At 29 his pace is starting to go and he has nothing else to offer. Bahoya should be coming on before him.

At least Aaronson can improve for a couple more years.

But ideally we move on from both next summer, but big wages will make that difficult.

Don't think its that simple now SG, new contracts signed and no other clubs daft enough to want them.
Same old scenario as we had with cooper , bamford etc
