It's a much more stable picture Thelin is walking into than it looked just a few months ago.
Jimmy Thelin can lead Aberdeen to third place next season - but he'll have Peter Leven to thank in part after steadying the Pittodrie ship, according to Willie Miller .
"Thelin's got a big challenge but he's got a good opportunity, and he's not starting from scratch. It's not as if the squad is threadbare and lacking talent, I think he's got a lot of talent to work with." But what should they be aiming for under Thelin? "Probably third place," said Miller. "I don't see why that shouldn't be the target. You're dealing in the same financial environment as Hibs and Hearts.
