Aberdeen FC manager Stephen Robinson is looking for his squad to step up and take some of the goal-scoring pressure off Kevin Nisbet.
What's the current situation?
The Scotland international has hit the ground running with six goals in four Premier Sports games, which helped set-up a quarter-final clash with Dundee.
Aberdeen FC finished the 2025 season in 8th place in the Premiership with 33 points, 9 wins, 6 draws, and 18 losses from 33 games, and a recent form of LLWDW.
Why is this important for Aberdeen FC?
Robinson wants the rest of his squad to contribute more goals, with players like Daniel Happe, Lewis Smith, Toyosi Olusanya, Brad Lyons, and Kjartan Kjartansson having scored only one goal each so far.
The Dons boss is looking to build momentum and is hoping his top scorer can continue to strike it rich when Hearts travel to Pittodrie for their Premiership opener.
What comes next for Aberdeen FC?
Aberdeen are interested in Jadel Katongo, and Robinson believes his team is going into their Premiership campaign in good shape, having scored 33 goals and conceded 48 last season, finishing 37 points behind leaders Heart Of Midlothian. With the new season underway, Robinson is looking for his squad to maintain their levels and get back fighting at the top end of the Premiership, after an off-season last term.
