He's 21 and hasn't played much at any decent level. Don't know if he's good or bad but I'm surprised we're paying that for him tbh. I think most of us think we need a good backup to Eddy and it's doubtful he'll be at that stage yet. Hopefully he works out but as with everyone really, we'll need to wait and see. I thought we might go for someone a bit more proven, even if on loan.
We might still do that who knows. I've never believed that because a player is 21 means he can't hit the ground running. He's played Polish top flight and International at under 21 level. Whether he does the business or not is another question as we dont know much about him. Expecting another one in. . Possibly two.
Looking like we've got 2 deals done. Klimala and also Soro's club have pretty much said that we have signed him as well. Won't pretend I know much about either but again it's 2 youngsters and I'm not convinced that's what we need atm. Though if we add another couple of hopefully experienced players then it could turn into a good window for us.
By all accounts we just about have Soro over the line. I'm always wary of judging by YouTube clips, but the boy does look to have something about him.
I agree he looks promising. We definitely need a player that can rotate in central midfield. McGregor has been playing constantly for a couple of years now and looks burnt out at times, and as consistent as Broony has been, he should be getting rested in games like last night.
Got a feeling it was Martin Boyle we were watching today and not Shankland. Is he at our level?. Good player tbf but not what we should be looking for atm. Although his work rate is immense.
Not for me. We simply don't need pace in the team for domestic football as everyone just sits with their whole team behind the ball for most of the game.
We're signing Scott Banks from Dundee United 300k something like that. 18 years old going into our academy. Anyone know anything about him? Also bidding for Hearts defender Hickey I think.
He isn't a bad player, but I'm not convinced he will amount to as much as some believe. I would prefer we looked elsewhere.
I think he'd improve us in that department. I also think we need to keep a few Scottish/Celtic fans in that starting eleven to keep the passion there. I know that maybe sounds old fashioned but i've always believed that.
No, I'm all for that as well, but only if they are good enough. I've seen the boy have a few stinkers and he is a bit too slight for me as well, which wouldn't be as much of an issue if the talent is enough to compensate for it. Time will tell, but I would guess that he will never go a level above SPL or the Championship down south.
Hickey is nowhere near good enough for us. He had a decent half hour in one game against us and got a lot of positive publicity but as you say he's been awful since. Maybe coming to us and getting away from the dinosaur that is Levein we can coach him properly but for me, he's shown nothing to suggest he will be up to much.
Watched him in the Euro under 21's and was impressed but he's flopped at Fiorentina and in Belgium. Could be a hit or a miss.
That deal makes no sense for any of those clubs but if it's not too late I'll happily set up a go fund me to help them pay for him. He's shite.
