Stephen Robinson’s Tony Yogane error as Aberdeen boss urges patience

Aberdeen manager Stephen Robinson admitted he made a mistake by playing winger Tony Yogane too early following his permanent transfer from Brentford. Yogane, who joined in a six-figure deal after a loan spell at Dundee, struggled initially and was substituted at halftime on multiple occasions. However, Robinson urged patience with the 21-year-old, noting that expectations must be managed carefully given his age and experience.

The winger showed progress in Aberdeen's recent 3-1 victory over St Mirren by winning a key penalty. Robinson praised Yogane's character and talent while challenging wingers Lewis Smith and Hicham Mahou to increase their output. The victory marked Aberdeen's second home league win of the season as they prepare to face Dundee United.
