Considine: Wants Fyvie to stay

Considine: Wants Fyvie to stay

Andrew Considine is disappointed that Fraser Fyvie wants to leave Aberdeen and believes the teenager's career would be better served by staying at Pittodrie.

Fyvie's current contract at Aberdeen expires at the end of the year and manager Craig Brown expects the midfielder to move to English football.

Brown has suggested only an offer in the region of £5million would persuade the Dons to sell the 18-year-old in the summer as the club would be entitled to compensation once his deal runs out.

The midfielder's team-mate Considine, meanwhile, has called on Fyvie to spend a couple more seasons in the SPL before heading for a bigger stage.

"It's disappointing Fraser intends to leave as he's a big player for us," said Considine in the Daily Record.

"I don't blame him for wanting to play in England. Everyone wants to play there but I feel as if this club is going places.

"I feel it would be better for him to stay at Pittodrie. The facilities are good and there's a new stadium to be built.

"He can still move later. If he stayed two or three more years he'd still be in his early twenties.

"Chris Maguire hasn't played too many games for Derby since he left and he was a great player here.

"It's hard to cement a place down there and sometimes the grass isn't always greener."

here has only been 3 players who made me hold my breath in dread when they picked the ball up anywhere near our penalty area...in their prime Scholes and Giggs... and always Drogba. Awesome player who on his day was the best striker in the world in my opinion.

remember him scoring a 25-yarder, either the season just gone or the one before, against Bolton at the Reebok. I've never seen a ball hit that hard before in my entire life. You could almost feel the shockwave from his foot contacting it 40 yards away in the stands. Didier Droga. You might not have loved him, but you just had to be in awe of him.
