Supposedly bringing in another LB? Seems quite pointless, especially when he's 30 and will cost a fee when we're already bring in Izzy, strange.

09 Aug 2018 14:43:06
Where you hear that RE?

09 Aug 2018 15:21:52
We’ve signed another project, 18year old French Canadian from Auxerre. I don’t know about you lot, but I’m excited.

09 Aug 2018 15:36:19
Magic he goes into the development squad.
I will ask you what I asked mally.

Should we just stop bringing young players into our youth development just because we also need first players?

09 Aug 2018 15:56:29
Just Twitter rumours mate, underwhelming.

09 Aug 2018 17:29:03
Might be bringing him in to play left of the back 3 and have KT as LWB.

09 Aug 2018 17:36:12
Kev o have no problem bringing them in. It’s what happens to them after that. Can you name the last one who got more than ten minutes playing time? If they can’t cut it why bring in rubbishe? Are the scouts so poor that nobody the identify makes it? It’s like our Academy one great player every 20 years, one or two
good the rest utter pish and end up at the Dundee’s of this world. For example none of the current youngsters will make our team. The Scottish ones I mean. Heard the other young Ozzy is a player. Then again we hear they all are, the step up, look mediocre then vanish to Elgin, we should be more selective.

Sorry Magic I was meaning the Anderlecht LB not the young guy.

09 Aug 2018 18:26:41
Is that not just another wicked rumour?

09 Aug 2018 19:02:34
As far as I know yeah.

09 Aug 2018 19:05:29
Is it Olivier Deschacht your all talking about cos he is 36.

09 Aug 2018 19:22:02
Ajer went down the same route magic and he's the 1st choice CB now.

09 Aug 2018 19:52:14
No Marco, Ivan Obradovic.

09 Aug 2018 21:17:25
Ok mate cheers.

09 Aug 2018 22:06:20
Ajer may be the first choice CB but don’t think that’s anything to be proud of. The guys positioning is poor, he can’t use his left foot and he takes too many risks.

09 Aug 2018 12:44:49
Supposedly signed 18yo cb from auxerre who's never played a senior game. marvellous.

09 Aug 2018 13:03:55
Aye for the development squad mally.

09 Aug 2018 13:07:30
Anno kev but should it no be for the first team we need players that are ready to play he might be 2 years away time will tell.

09 Aug 2018 13:25:05
Have we to stop bring in young players to our youth development just because we also need first players like?

09 Aug 2018 13:47:42
Nope not saying that just saying a would rather see ready made players coming in just now.

09 Aug 2018 14:24:03
We all would mally but I think because we had a bad day yesterday fans are ready to turn everything that isn't a player being signed as a first team player into a negative.

09 Aug 2018 14:40:18
Fair point kev am just a bit pissed off the day with the way the club is being run regarding transfers.

09 Aug 2018 15:18:24
Guys let's settle down. I'm disappointed missing out on McGinn. I would rather we sign and settled players in early in the window. But there is still 3 weeks still to go.

09 Aug 2018 17:20:34
How many windows do you need let down in before your going to realise that we are always left underwhelmed? After the young Aussie, no one will come in unless someone is sold, I gave this scenario in June and was laughed at, yet again it’s coming true unfortunately.

09 Aug 2018 17:50:04
You hardly need to be a Sooithsayer to predict that. I can go back 20 years at least with the same rubbish. The trouble is, we never learn. We always hope, this time. Never feckin happens. It looks highly unlikely, we will still be in the CL next Tuesday night. If that happens we can forget quality signings. Not that we would have got them anyway, but the tin hat on hope dies if we get handed our arse in Athens.

There’s a chance we can win over there. Not if we play like we did last night. Toothless and ran out of ideas. I wish we had their defence. Showed hows it’s done, while we have away another pathetic goal.

09 Aug 2018 21:51:16
I hear this 3 weeks left in transfer window, who cares when we have 1 week possibly left in the money pot champions league

If we go out and I think we have to admit it’s more likely we will given our record away at times then you can be sure that we will not sign any player of note for the Europa league

BR is clearly unhappy, and if we go out next week then I think this will just add to the cracks that are clearly forming between him and Pedro

100% hope we pull out a performance next week and that a miracle happens and Dembele makes it 🙏.

How many first team games did Odsonne Edoard play for PSG?

Does the lack of first team appearances for the big European sides matter if they can cut it for us?


For all we know, the lad from marseille could be a step up from Ajer and a real gem.
