Aberdeen Stand Firm as New Manager Watches On
Goalkeeper Kelle Roos isn't fazed by the looming presence of incoming manager Jimmy Thelin. As Aberdeen gear up for a crucial Scottish Cup semi-final against heavyweights Celtic, they know the eyes of the future boss are drilling into their performance—even from afar.
"For me, nothing changes," claims Roos, dismissing the notion that a new gaffer in the wings cranks up the pressure. The real driving force is the game itself, not who's holding the clipboard. Eyes will be glued to BBC One Scotland this Saturday at 12:30 BST to see if Roos walks his confident talk.
Future under Thelin: Uncertainty and Preparation
While Jimmy Thelin studies his new squad from the sidelines of his current gig at Elfsborg, the 31-year-old Dutch shot-stopper remains tight-lipped about his future at Pittodrie. Contract talks are a mystery, but Roos has done his homework on Thelin. The anticipation for a Swedish touch to Scottish soccer is building even as Roos might be exiting stage left come summer.
"I had a bit of a gut feeling..." Roos admits, signalling he saw the appointment on the horizon and prepped accordingly. Will this strategic foresight pay off when the new boss takes the helm in June?
