Nemesis 277 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I quite like WallaceEveryone seems to be looking for a foreign 'star' but I'm happy with the best that Scotland has to offer so long as they can get better.We have done well over the years in that regard and Wallace is another who has potential.He is not quite as good defensively as Sasa but rips him a new one going forward.Be nice to have the choice so long as price is ok.If we spent 4m-ish and got Cuellar, Wallace and Goodwillie I'd call it good sound business.We don't have enough cash to gamble and there is really no need to anyway.3IAR championship winning team simply needs a few sound additions. These boys will do that and more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC55 108,794 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I will say this for Wallace it would help him better if his name was leo wallacinho who was a brizallian playing in the belgian or dutch leauges. He would have a cracking wee youtube compolation made up and everyone on here would be creaming at the thought of it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis 277 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I can't see Romanov selling Wallace on the cheap to rangers. If anything he'll be looking for 2 mill upwards. I know they have a ready made replacement in grainger but I just can't see Wallace coming to us.Only 12 months left on his deal.I know Mad Romanov usually freezes them out at this point but as Wallace has real value he'll take what he can get.1m would do it imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunslinger 270 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I have only made a point of watching him once and he played well. that said a lot of people don't rate him. I am undecided. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
papaguy51 912 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 It's all about options and Papac is only here for another year.It'll also give Sasa the freedom to play at centre half if needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Hes a pretty good player and i dont think there is any doubt that he could improve at Rangers and he is still only 23.We have probably been looking at him since Walters time here and he knew a good defender when he saw one so i will side with the scouts and the managment on this one and say he would be a good addition.

These boys will do that and more.Nearer to £5m, and that will get us a decent/good SPL striker who has potential to be very good, a mid table SPL level left back and an injured centre-half who has barely kicked a ball in his proper position.

gunslinger 270 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I will say this for Wallace it would help him better if his name was leo wallacinho who was a brizallian playing in the belgian or dutch leauges. He would have a cracking wee youtube compolation made up and everyone on here would be creaming at the thought of its player half as good but foreign would have people spunking over him on here.

Guest Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Also perhaps Hearts know Wallace wont sign a new deal so they are wanting him gone and have signed grainger as a replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SasaFknPapac 9 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Hopefully it's not rejected, 'cause we'll come back with an even higher bid which will drain more money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've seen Lee Wallace through out the seasons and he is nothing more than an average SPL left back, not even inside the top 5 in the SPL.Who next, this lad McGregor from St. Mirren?

kanjo 26,328 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Hearts have confirmed that they have received a bid from Rangers for Scotland full-back Lee Wallace.The 23-year-old has been at Tynecastle since 2004, has made 140 appearances for the club and was vice-captain to Marius Zaliukas last season.Wallace, who has been capped five times for Scotland, has 12 months left on his deal at Tynecastle.An Ibrox source also confirmed that Wallace is a player in which they are interested.More to follow...

Chef 436 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 to get someone similar with age and ability im sure we would have to spend a fee anyway, the difference is he knows the league, our expectations and could poss be a good fit for the squad, at the end of the day its all finances, worth 1mill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlasgowsBlue 329 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Injury prone to the max, and do we really need to be throwing money at Wallace when we could go for Goodwillie ... I just don't understand what is going on at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

4MenHadADream 122 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Never really rated him as a full back, but maybe we will try and push him on and develop him as a LM too, then he can be cover for Papac if need be, and if he develops then he could replace Papac in a year or two. Certainly give us better competition on the left-side, provided it was a bid of <1m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

butthole 149 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Ive never really noticed Wallace much before to be honest, never stood out. Whether that says more about my lack of interest in the other SPL teams rather than the mans ability, probubly! But its about time Pap daddy had some competition for the position, can only be a good thing! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
