- Mark McGhee tells us the best 11 footballers he played with throughout his career. The former Dundee F.C. manager and Scotland Assistant Manager Mark McGhee's began his professional career in 1975 at Morton. In 1977 he moved to England, signing for Newcastle United. Despite an encouraging start at St James' Park, managerial changes at the club saw McGhee being played less often. He returned to Scotland in March 1979 as Alex Ferguson's first major signing for Aberdeen.
Aberdeen won the Scottish Premier Division, the first time in 15 years that a club outwith the Old Firm had finished Scottish Champions. At Aberdeen McGhee went on to win a further league title in 1984 as well as three successive Scottish Cup wins from 1982 to 1984.
He was also part of the Aberdeen side that defeated Real Madrid 2-1 in the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1983. Mark McGhee then won the European Super Cup the following season, with him scoring against Hamburg in the second leg at Pittodrie. During his time at Aberdeen, he also won the Scottish PFA Players' Player of the Year in 1982.
McGhee moved to Germany in the summer of 1984, with Hamburg paying Aberdeen a transfer fee of £330,000. Due to injuries, McGhee moved back to Scotland to join Celtic 16 months later after scoring only 12 goals for Hamburg.
McGhee won a further Scottish Premier Division title in 1986 as Celtic. The following year saw McGhee struggle at Parkhead through injury and the inability to displace Mo Johnston and Brian McClair from the starting line-up.
However, the departure of several Celtic players in the summer of 1987 gave McGhee a new lease of life at Celtic Park and he won a League and Scottish Cup double in the club's Centenary Season. He won a further Scottish Cup in 1989 and was Celtic's top scorer that season, also finishing joint top scorer in the Scottish Premier Division alongside Aberdeen's Charlie Nicholas.
McGhee joined Reading as player-manager in May 1991.
During his playing career, McGhee also won four caps and scored two goals for the Scotland national football team.

''Hello..I'm Mark McGhee...and I'm here to tell you my Dream Team.'' ''Any fucking team that's daft enough tae ghee me a joab..... cuz ah dinnae have a club...and the blazers at the SFA are gonnae dump me an Shiteferbrain Gordo pretty soon.'' ''Me an the geneticist are a first class management team...an if we had players fae England that had any idea where Scotland wuz onna map... that had 25 strand DNA...then we would pick them...an Scoatland would win the world cup....nae problem.
He played in Germany and picks 9 SCOTS? Who's Aitken?
4 of those Scottish players (Leighton, McLeish, Miller and Strachan) were team mates of McGhee when Aberdeen beat Real Madrid to win the Cup Winners Cup Final in 1983. Aberdeen beat Bayern Munich in the quarter finals and then beat Hamburg to win the Super Cup. Those 4 players played over 300 times for Scotland and between them played in 9 World Cups. Aitken though is an odd choice.
A thought that but Aitken was great at 86 and 90 World Cups he really changed my opinion of him.
