Big Jake 1,189 Report post Posted August 28, 2018 Are we shipping out a central midfielder/s ? That’s got to be the answer Someone needs to get a grip of this guy and and get him told to do his job properly or tell him to do one! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I understand things.... the player has been involved in 90 plus Premiership Games. If he comes, then he brings experience. There has already been speculation that we might ship out 1 or more midfielders. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I mentioned before , I met Lewis Stevenson in Majorca and he was singing Stephen's praises , said Lennon rated him highly following the turning over we gave them in 2017. That was the night that Lennon said to John McGinn after the match "You're not even the best player in your own house " ! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tommy 3,554 Report post Posted August 28, 2018 Killie cram as many into both stands behind the goals when they play the old firm 🤭Based on 3 home games against them at £25, Killie will have around 24000 away fans. We will have 9600 so Killie will make around 280K more than us from the bigots after vat. That is how they can get players that we can't. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How many centre mids do we need McGinn Jones Willock Magennis Kirkpatrick McShane Flynn McPherson Who can all play in the middle while we have one outright Winger (King, who can’t get a sniff).

Hendo 3,009 Report post Posted August 28, 2018 Edwards signed for Hearts in the summer, which makes me think he'd be another loan signing. FWIW I think he's not a bad player, but plays in a position we definitely don't need anyone. Centre half, left midfield, striker and back up goalie. Got that Stubbsy? Now repeat after me...centre half, left... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a meeting with him on Thursday I'll ask him where he got his source, Cnuts got me worried now.. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doakes 2,983 Report post Posted August 28, 2018 Here's my speculation Stephen McGinn only signed as a favour to Jack Ross. He's openly said that the players we've signed ain't experienced enough for this level. McGinn can say that as he knows he has something lined up elsewhere. Stubbs knows that and is bringing in this guy. Cammy Smith to leave by Friday is also a strong rumour. Now the new centre mid makes a bit more sense. With budget now available, we bring in another centre mid. Forum implodes. P&B goes down. Lynch mob appears at the doors of the SDA.... Seriously though. This is getting out of hand. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

buddies1877 2,069 Report post Posted August 28, 2018 Why do folk keep quoting Ryan Flynn as a central midfielder when he’s played his entire career playing wide?He’s too slow now to play wide similar to ryan giggs winger all his life towards the end of his career played more central.We badly need abit of pace on the wings to cause teams a problem and a decent cb imo we don’t have 1.A decent striker would be good also and a back up gk last thing we need is a ryan Edwards type player 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
