Drunk and disorderly. 14,418 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 King admitted that he was happy with the strengthening work that had been carried out in recent weeks and indicated that it wasn't finished either. "I think we could probably see another couple coming in and possibly another couple going out just depending on what happens with the English window coming up," he told STV. "But we've certainly added a lot of players and got some away as well, but I think the squad is looking to more settled and balanced. "There's greater quality and depth throughout the squad than we've had the last couple of years." Sweetheart and WATP-FOREVER 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fancy shit just a goalscorer. I dont know if Bournemouth plan to send him on loan but its actually been rumored so thats the only reason if it was a choice i'd take Defoe Blueshoff, Clemdog, Fatman10 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGovanIniesta 1,000 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 King also basically shat it and has said that we will be watching MacLennan very carefully throughout the season, sounds like it was just a stunt to appease the fans. eejay the dj 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amac9 2,060 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I expect another 2 uninspiring loan players coming in. Hopefully I'm wrong but just don't see us spending the money to get good quality in the areas we need most and that means another struggle to get second place.

Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 No doubt wait until the EPL teams have announced their squads for the league, then we will get a couple of on loan cast offs. eejay the dj 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many including myself felt that when Gerrard arrived he had guarantees of proper investment from the Board. Only Gerrard will know if he's got the backing he expected or not. Personally think we are still short. I would say we need 3 more. CB, CM and CF. I expect we will sign a CB and loan in another striker. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally think we are still short. I would say we need 3 more. CB, CM and CF. I expect we will sign a CB and loan in another striker. The board planned to spend a significant fee on Cooper though, that needs to be re-invested elsewhere on quality, they're having us on if they don't, considering the loans and frees we have brought in we aren't asking much at all and never do, take Goldson away and we have spent little, even less if Windass or Morelos were to go. 3 more would do but I'd be looking at spending the Cooper money on a CB and CM and doing everything we can to get Solanke or Defoe. King promised a lot more than he has delivered so it's only right we take him for his word regardless, if this season goes wrong it will absolutely ruin the clubs finances, it's up to him to show that he doesn't want that to happen and as a result set us back a decade.
