supermac Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 http://news.bbc.co.u...ll/13214101.stmDundee United manager Peter Houston has resigned himself to losing midfielders Craig Conway, Prince Buaben and Morgaro Gomis at the end of the season."We know that they're leaving here," said Houston. "They've indicated from early on they want to move on and try something different."It's been reported Brighton are interested in Morgaro and Prince."Craig Conway has been linked with a number of clubs and good luck to them if they all go."Rangers are one of those linked with Conway, who joined United from Ayr United in 2006 and whose performances won him his first Scotland cap three years later.Gomis, also 25 and who was born in France but capped by Senegal, worked his way up through the lower English football leagues, playing for Windsor & Eton, Dagenham & Redbridge, Barnet and Lewes.Levein also signed Buaben during his spell in charge of United, securing the Ghanaian after he exited Ajax in July 2007, and the 23-year-old has since played more than 100 times for the club.A short spell at Cowdenbeath preceded a move to Dundee United after he followed manager Craig Levein to Tannadice in January 2007."Those three guys have done Dundee United good service and, if they go and earn three or four times as much money, good luck to them," said Houston, who was Levein's assistant."They go with my best wishes because they've done me a turn."The bottom line is that United cannot match the wage demands of the midfield trio.Gomis and Buaben share an agent, who has confirmed that Guy Poyet's runaway League One leaders, having secured promotion to the Championship, are keen on the duo.However, he stressed that clubs in the Championship, League One and Scottish Premier League were all interested and that no decision about their futures would be made until the end of the season.All three leaving on bosmans, takeover or no takeover get all three in for much needed depth of the squad what do we think? Combined wages would probably be about the same as James Beattie's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cappa Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Would take Gomis and Conway in a heartbeat. Improvements on what we currently have in the same roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Don't rate Craig Conway. Very inconsistent and don't think he would be good enough. Might be a decent squad player though, especially on a free transfer and low wages.Margaro Gomis is a player I rate even though he has not had a good season. Better than Edu, McCulloch and Hutton IMO. Like Conway could be a decent squad player for free.As for Bauben I really don't rate him.But there is one player we should be doing all we can to sign from Dundee Utd and that is David Goodwillie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 If (a must IMO) we are looking for a central midfielder, then we have to look for better than Edu, McCulloch, Gomis and Bauben!We need a proper midfielder, one who understands the role, can play and contribute... If Edu and McCulloch are first team regulars next season, then we are in trouble.I'd take Gomis if it meant bringing in quality to partner Steven Davis, and moving on Edu/McCulloch - Gomis would be a squad player. No need for Gomis or Bauben if McCulloch, Edu, Davis, Ness and Hutton are all going to be at the club.As for Craig Conway. I don't rate him. Not too sure on his knee and is having trouble with either his calf or hamstring. He is far too inconsistent, and his delivery is nowhere near as good as people say it is.

I just don't get why he signed a new contract so close to the end of the season knowing we are interested and have limited funds at the moment. We can forget about him until we have money. I think Conway and Gomis can add something to the squad where as Bauben would be another body for cover, I suppose we have Hutton for that but since we have such a small squad and he is free I suggested him too.

David1872 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I would take gomis and conway. Ive been told that conway will be going to celtic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunslinger Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 conway had 9 assists last season only davis and the lesbian were better. hes had problems this season certainly. as a cheap option i would take him. this season we have had lafferty whittaker and edu on the right of midfield. if we can afford conway hes got to be a better option.

Ive been told that conway will be going to celtic though.Guaranteed money maker, i can see it now. Wont be surprised at all.Very poor if we allow it to happen, the lad should have been tied up long ago.There he will be behind 8 or 9 other wingers, here he would be first choice probably.
