BBC Sport Scotland commentator Liam McLeod has been answering more of your Aberdeen questions.
David asked: What key player positions should Aberdeen strengthen in the summer and what names have you in mind to fill them?
Liam answered: Unfortunately, it appears Aberdeen need to strengthen most areas of the squad. I personally think the likes of Dimitar Mitov, Mats Knoester, Dennis Geiger – currently on loan but with a purchase option – and Kevin Nisbet are assets and I think Topi Keskinen, Findlay Marshall – assuming they can tie him down on a new deal – and Gavin Molloy can all make an impact.
However, there is going to have to be another busy summer and Stephen Robinson, along with returning head of recruitment Darren Mowbray, will have an idea of who they want to bring to the club.
Their ability to plan for next season has been affected by the fact a relegation play-off is still a possibility in mid-April.
Players like David Watson at Kilmarnock, Ben Stanway at Partick Thistle and Andrew Tod at Dunfermline should be on the radar though they may have missed the boat with the former given the clubs now allegedly interested at home and abroad.
Darren Mowbray was responsible for the signings of Ylber Ramadani, Bojan Miovski, Duk and Leighton Clarkson so he has set the bar high.
Martin asked: Every commentator I hear say the Dons need a clear out/rebuild in the summer. Do Aberdeen need a quieter summer with some consistency in playing squad and perhaps only a few tactical signings?
Liam answered: They need a big clear out again unfortunately.
A quieter summer can only be attained if the player/trading model that Dave Cormack is using is working and, despite some excellent relatively recent transfer dealings, the last year to 18 months has been poor in that respect. No one in the current squad is going for the sort of figures they brought in for the likes of Ramadani, Miovski, Ross McCrorie and even Lewis Ferguson to go back a few years. They need a rethink.
Jack asked: How would you assess the handling of Jimmy Thelin’s departure and the recruitment process that followed to source his eventual replacement?
Liam answered: I think even the club would have played it differently in hindsight but make no mistake, they were desperate for Thelin to turn the ship around.
Stephen Robinson's stock when Thelin was fired was as high as it's ever been having just lifted the League Cup off the back of three successive top six finishes with St Mirren. If Robinson was the man they truly wanted, they should have made their move for him in January. The fact they didn't tells its own story.
Thelin was dumped on the fourth day of the January transfer window, the timing was bad in that respect but that was down to the fact he'd delivered the Scottish Cup last May. They let it go as long as they feasibly could.
When Robinson was appointed, he was on a run of one win in 13 league games, although he did take Saints into the Scottish Cup semis just before he left, so the timing of their move for him was questionable but Cormack is a long-term fan of his so it didn't come as a massive surprise.
