    Porteous is a diddy.

    There’s a reason Clarke called him up and then when Scotland needed another CB they then added Considine and Hanlon, and played both of them ahead of Porteous.

    Stephane Ruffier is on a free after being released by Saint Ettiene.. know that * Lennon says we’re no interested but your talking about a 10 million plus goalkeeper available for nothing, can’t imagine he was on much more than 40k a week either should be aw er this

    Pretty confident we won’t sign anyone of note in this window. A loan and a pre-contract is what I expect.

    At a time when we should be assessing the squad and looking to begin the rebuild, we will do the bare minimum. Sleepwalking into an early European exit next season.

    There is clearly no common sense at the Club given Lennon is still the manager. It’s a complete shambles from top to bottom.

    They added considine to slot in right hand side and was versatile to slot in as a right sided centre back had nothing to do with porteous being poor reason I have snuggested him is because he has potential to pull in a future fee

    Why we haven't exploited the English cross border market more after the success of moussa from fulham is it inflated wages in the last few years etc or did we push the boat out for him ? Seem to get linked with lower league prospects now rather than real quality.
    The likes of maja recently come to mind, I like the look of the boy nmecha from city doing well at anderlecht and German 21s

    We are constantly linked with these young wonderkids but do we actually make a move for them? Beginning to wonder.

    Mainly because most players that are good enough don't let their contracts get to that stage. The ones that do, because other English teams can't sign them on pre contracts with 6 months to go, are encouraged to move then if an offer of money comes in for them.

    There is quite a lot of risk involved for a young player letting their contract expire. What if they sign a pre contract in January then get a long term injury playing for their current team and the pre contract gets ripped up? They then face a situation of being out of contract and needing rehab that they would need to fund on their own. Yeah it can work out for some, but as I say there is a fair amount of risk involved so it is a pretty rare occurrence. With the in demand players at least.

    Have there been any solid rumours yet? Seems we will just sail on as we are, with only 2 natural centre backs in Ajer and Welsh. No wingers bar Johnstone and an injured Forrest.
