I seriously think your grasping at straws.Wouldn’t it be great if we announced 3/4 in a row. Have them all lined up with the new strip and scarfs.
For what it’s worth I think this week ahead will see massive movements in and out.
I’m not saying I know anything but with H&H talking about Aribo and with the end of the month approaching I just think it’s looking that way.Said this every weekend for the last month
I seriously think your grasping at straws.
We are waiting to see who we sell before buying anyone much.
I can see us getting Colac potential Amad back and then waiting on our going’s before bringing anyone else in.
Out of Aribo Kent and Alfie I expect maybe Kent to extend but wouldn’t surprise me if all 3 went.
maybe Roofe and Alfredo might not be fit for start of season ?Just seems a bit strange that we would sell our 3rd pick striker then spend more money than we brought in on his replacement. £2.5m or so a player who might only start between 5-10 games a season?
Just think that money could have been better spent bringing in an immediate RW starter as it looks like we don't have any big amounts of money to spend this summer.
Until Roofe is sold spending that kind of money on a squad player seems a bit bizarre.
It’s been mentioned more than a couple of times.Amad back, first I’ve heard that
I genuinely don’t think we would sell all 3.I seriously think your grasping at straws.

I like the sound of this mate, and coming from yourself I'm hopeful.Quality over quantity for us this week.
Will be a relevant week for us, coming up.
good pointI think he’s more likely to be our second choice as Roofe is not reliable.
If we had paid a few million for a striker in January which we badly needed we may have been both League and European champions.
We need at least 2 strikers without fitness issues. Morelos was also run in to the Ground.
NI band related username?Maybe he's up to value the older items in the trophy room.
I would take Diallo back.
I think he gets Rangers pressures now.
Tbh the boy has Talent and his work rate and tracking back massively improved in his time with us.I don’t see why they’d be inclined to send him back given how little he featured.
And given how he was largely underwhelming, inspite of some revisionist views on here in dead rubber May games, I don’t see why we’d be inclined to want him back
I can see kamara and Aribo leaving and thats itI seriously think your grasping at straws.

I am pretty sure at least 2 of the 3 will go as long as we get a decent amount of money for them.I genuinely don’t think we would sell all 3.
I think it would be to much of an upheaval. Personally I agree that Kent seems most likely, but I think Alfie could well also extend.
Seems inevitable Aribo will be sold though.
Gonna be a longggg day!
SLF’s name before SLFFavourite Deep Purple track mate.
Is there anything you do actually like about our club?I think it's frustration more than anything and a recognition that we saw the same last year.
Players who should have gone given new contracts. A lack of movement. Clear signing options for problem areas ending up at the other side of the city.
Say what you want about our European run last season, but we were one goal to the good in a final, we didn't defend it and the two people at fault for the goal were given new contracts and an expectation that they will remain in the first eleven. That is where the unease is coming from.
On the macro level, we were promised a "player trading" model with homegrown talents coming to the forefront as talents with medals go to better pastures. That has not happened at all and it's not like these lads are not ready. On the micro level it's worse, McCrorie had a clean sheet against them last season. McGregor cost us the points that lost the league, specifically against them but there are far more egregious examples.
We have a group of youngsters that can go to Tynecastle and stroll it, but we know that Goldson & McGregor will play the role of chuckle brothers at the back for the next year and we'll drop points at Tynecastle because of it.
It's hard to have patience when one thing is said and the complete opposite is happening.
I think we are actively looking to sell at least 2.I can see kamara and Aribo leaving and thats it
kent and Alfredo extending their contracts
just my opinion
He played well in SC final imo. A loan from EPL academy needs to be start of season from now on to give the boys a pre season with 1st team.I don’t see why they’d be inclined to send him back given how little he featured.
And given how he was largely underwhelming, inspite of some revisionist views on here in dead rubber May games, I don’t see why we’d be inclined to want him back
Totally agree. Far less of a gamble than Grezda for example was at similar money.Worth a risk at that money.

See i dont get this.I would take Diallo back.
I think he gets Rangers pressures now.
I know what your saying mate but loans half way thru a season very rarely work.If we’re serious about regaining the title we need a more sound transfer policy than bringing in guys who flattered to deceive last year, based on some notion that they suddenly “get Rangers pressures”
Fuckin hell.Amad Diallo is worth having back, even if he won't feature much.
The kid has loads of social media followers and almost a cult following across the world, people that want to watch him and buy kits with his name on it.
Even if we don't capitalise using him on the pitch, he will grow us in terms of audience as well.
That lot have signed a few Japanese players, even if they were shit - the Japanese lap it up and they've done well in shirt sales in Asia off of it.
Sometimes a signing is also about growing your own brand, could probably include Ramsey in that too - didn't work out too well, but we had a lot more eyes on us.
Tbh I'd be 'happy' with that, as we're going to have to sell to buy regardless unfortunately and if that means we're able to hang onto everyone else that might be worth it in the bigger picture.I can see kamara and Aribo leaving and thats it
kent and Alfredo extending their contracts

Me too.Tbh the boy has Talent and his work rate and tracking back massively improved in his time with us.
I would take him back for 12 months but that’s purely my opinion.
He played well in SC final imo. A loan from EPL academy needs to be start of season from now on to give the boys a pre season with 1st team.
Throwing a boy into a mid season title race does no 1 any good. Hopefully a lesson learned. I wouldn't say no to him as I thought he was getting up to speed just as gales were running out.
Worth a risk at that money.

That'll put the young team that skelped Hearts put back in their box then in a dead rubberI don’t see why they’d be inclined to send him back given how little he featured.

I reckon his wife's social media faux pas would cause him (and us) too much hassle in Scotland too - you know that mob are desperate to have us painted as racistsThe problem with Katai is his age, he'll turn 32 half way through the season but he impressed me too.

The boy gets it now he didn’t at the start but he totally did before he left.I know what your saying mate but loans half way thru a season very rarely work.
A loan at the start of the season is a different ball game imo.
In domestic football he would make sense, think he would step up like Ryan Jack has probably score more goals though. Not a very popular view thoughNobody has mentioned Lewis Ferguson in any context for a while so let's sort that out.

Kent would be the only one I'd keep in the modern game you need pace and work rate he has that in abundance even when having a bad game.I seriously think your grasping at straws.

Must be back on the drink with Derek FergusonAlex Rae must be back on the Drink.
I'd want him on that commando training for a month. Boy has skills but needs toughened up mentally and physically.I don’t see why they’d be inclined to send him back given how little he featured.

Lewis Ferguson is the Arfield replacement when he leaves he's almost identical in style but he's never going to be AriboNobody has mentioned Lewis Ferguson in any context for a while so let's sort that out.
