      Hi,  yeah I've seen all his games so far,  very confident and impressive both in handling and kicking.  He's very popular up here. 

      I'll update from time to time.  Big gulf in class here to England but match experience will really bring him on.

      That's great to hear considering before going to Aberdeen he'd only had a few minutes 1st team football ever in his career.  Glad he's doing well for you mate.

      Danny Ward has been excellent for us so far a real confident young lad who has stepped straight into our team, and was today called into the Wales squad.

      We have a good defence this season also, but we were always lacking at commanding our box at corners etc but Ward has offered improvement there, onward and upwards.

      Ward still playing fantastic.  What a great presence.  We tend to dominate games but he's still having to pull off great stops and his handling at corners is top notch.

      We've taken on a full back from Liverpool too.  Difficult to see how he will get into our team but I doubt he's been loaned to sit on the bench.

      Danny Ward, what a keeper, another clean sheet.  He is outstanding for us and the main reason for us being top of the league, played 7 won 7, conceded just 2 goals I believe. 

      Alan McLaughlan was the fullback, he made his debut tonight, he is very fast, be interesting to see how he goes the next few months.

      Only conceded two at Aberdeen, what a fantastic run they are on.

      Of the two he's conceded, one was a penalty and the other was a rebound after he saved the initial shot.

      There's been none of the uncertainty that Migs keeps displaying and has already built up an understanding with his back four.

      Dons fans are hoping he'll stay for a second season (especially if they make the Champions League) but he'll probably be at a higher level next season - either on loan to an EPL team or challenging Migs.

      Even though Bacon face has ties with the Dons, it'd be nice to see someone else will that league for a change.

      I was at Pittodrie on Saturday to see Danny make four excellent saves in the last ten minutes to help avoid a fifth successive defeat for Aberdeen.

      Glad to see he had a good game. I love it when teams give the younger lads opportunities, especially in key positions like a goalkeeper.

      Celtic Park will be another big test for him on Saturday, but he certainly seems to have the right mentality for the big game.

      Just to update he is still brilliant.  Probably the best keeper we've had since snelders.  He's had some difficult moments like all the team at times but overall outstanding. 

      The fullback mclaughlin is horrendous

      According to BBC Scotland, Klopp has recalled Danny from his loan at Aberdeen. Does this mean he'll be competing for a place in the team/on the bench? Or sent out on loan to the Championship maybe?

      Seems a strange decision really considering he was actually a player who was starting every week. I hope he doesn't just sit in the under-21's.

      Yes, some folk on my Facebook feed gutted at this (used to study in Aberdeen).

      A big hero for the Don supporters, let's just hope he gets the same great support he got from the Aberdeen fans. I'm sure he will have great fondness for you lot and Aberdeen FC. I don't know much about his performances in Aberdeen having only heard but Graham Hunter (the famous writer on Spanish football) rates him highly too.

      Though sadly, our goalkeeping coach John Achterberg will probably F**k him up like he's done to every keeper since he arrived here.

      Why would they send him on loan to a championship side when he was starting every game at Aberdeen and playing well there?

      I'd say he's on a fast track to be the new #2 keeper and maybe even more if he's as good as Aberdeen supporters say he is.

      I don't get this one.  Even if he came to be number two, when exactly is he going to get a chance?  Bogdan himself barely played at all this season. 

      This only makes sense if Klopp is thinking about starting him, ahead of Mignolet.  Otherwise you're cutting short the good experience he was getting in Scotland, starting every week, just for him to sit on the bench.  I don't see how that helps him.

      If he's going to come in and start, then fair play.

      I'm the exact same on the situation. He seems quite small for a keeper too at 5' 9".

      Edit: Forget that, he's actually as tall as Mignolet (about 6' 3").
