linwood-bud Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 One thing that has been exploited in the recent Livi and Dunf games is the teams lack of height.Even Barcelona needs someone like Busquets in there to help the centre halves.

Tommy Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Surprise signing but with 11 games left it's better he sign for us instead of Utd or Livvy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 I'm surprised as everyone else at this signing. The only reason i can see him been brought in, is to possibly add help on the coaching side, though be ready to be called upon once needed. He was highly regarded at Hamilton in his coaching role, though only left the club (had 18 months left on his contract) to help ease the pressure on club finances after they were bumped in that scam. Maybe he was the scammer [emoji102] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTOF Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Texted my brother in law who works for Accies. He spoke to Donati at the weekend and apparently he is fit Says got a great touch, but slow as a cart horse. Defensive mid is his favoured position.

Ethan Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 From people I spoke to he was brought to Accies to replace Canning but members of their board did a u turn in sacking him. He has played as a sweeper and is comfortable but as mentioned he has no pace. A midfield general is what we need. His lack of pace is not a problem as going forward we have tons of pace. We need someone to break up play and give it to our creative players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Turner and Andy Millen were on the mature side and had no pace to speak of, but they were both key players in successful St Mirren teams. I can't see why this guy can't do us a turn.

Buffs Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Tam Turner , what a player he was. He just turned roond and the baw came aff the tap o his heid. St Mirren 3 Raith Rovers 2. Another last minute winner in that season. Hope Donati makes his mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbie Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Think Livvy was a massive wake up call and Donati is exactly what we need against the likes of them and Dumbarton. Short term contract, fight like hell and take some yellow cards. Nothing lost. We've been lacking a bit of aggression and I personally think he fits the bill. Good signing.

Aye like our last defeat on the 2nd December. The most important issue is how we respond and that's what will define us as champions.

Got a feeling Donati could end up being here beyond the end of the season in some capacity. Very good signing though, even in the short term.

Lord Pityme Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Cant wait to see Donati chiant-ing up and down the pitch, spraying pass-atas around, and being Peppe-red to grind out performances. Have to say parmigiana of me feels he may be a bit mature, but i dont like to minestrone my words. Theres a pizza me hopes he doesnt get unduly stressed and feel the need to cover himself in tomato sauce, mozzarella, onions, pepperoni and ham.... i dont think topping himself would help?
