CottonRunt 1,026 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Add Verhoek and Goodwillie to our squad and we are laughingMuff seems to really like him! I will be brutally honest and admit i know next to nothing about him! He seems very quick and well built for the rough and tumble of Scottish football! That was on a Forrest forum i seen it so dont know how much truth is in that! His direct quotes the other day seemed very positive! I really liked the look of the lad Estigeriba(sp) but that seems a no go now Looking at the youtube video someone posted (i know, i know) he does look as though he would be ideal for us.Can hold the ball up, tracks back, has pace. His crossing looks as though it needs a bit of work though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted that lad too. He looked very impressive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris182 6,531 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 He looks a player alright and I'm glad we've bid for him. Whether £1m will be enough is another matter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Craig Whyte always said the money was there to spend if required, if it was bringing in the right quality of player. Id imagine Verhoek, Goodwillie and Cuellar would fit into that bill, two of them being tried and tested in the SPL. One who could be at the club for many years to come.Heres hoping! Would be 3 fantastic signings IMO.Get a couple of good loans from the EPL before the deadline and we will have a pretty strong squad to defend our title with Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broxi 12,205 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 from the video, you can clearly see that he's pacey, hard working, willing to chase down balls, got a decent cross on him and looks as if he could hit a freekick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Whats the point? They have already said they want 3million have they not. I know we're not going to give them what they want at the 1st attempt but, FFS 1million is no where near what they want. it will be rejected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzGers 425 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 still need a proper no 10 in my opinion..diasgree, if we played with davis in the middle, and verhoek/naismith pushing up and linking with jela and goodwillie, no need for a creative midfielder...its too much of a luxury position in my book, one that only the top top clubs can pull off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

4MenHadADream 122 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 There's no way we'll get him for 1m, but at least we are making a move. Hopefully we aren't priced out, as this guy would be the answer to our LM problems Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbroxybear 660 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Verhoek looks the business and for 1.7m is worth bringing in he will destroy SPL defences. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 have to remember, we kinda dont know what it's like to have a creative midfield that doesn't always build from the center which then puts strikers in or passes out to strikers/defenders in winging roles.i think we will be able to stretch the game more with real wingers - they will not only create better on the wing, but they will free up what was always a conjested midfield with davis struggling on his own to be creative with hardly any help around him.

4MenHadADream 122 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Really happy about this, but in all seriousness how long before THEY are credited with an interest. I would guess that we will see a story like this in the Thursday papers.
