Leighton Clarkson wants to leave Aberdeen with a farewell gift of European football before he returns to Liverpool. The loanee midfielder has been a big player as Barry Robson’s side returned to third place in the Premiership at the weekend.
It capped some turnaround for the Dons, who at one point had been trailing Hearts by more than 10 points in the fight to be best of the rest.
Yes the Dons themselves had been in the driving seat until the end of December but the turnaround since Robson replaced Jim Goodwin has been truly remarkable.
He has now led them to five wins on the bounce and, as it stands, it would take a brave individual to back against them from finishing in third spot.
