Heard this as a feature on a podcast about Man Utd and how they have done since Ferguson left that I was listening to the other day and thought it would be a good conversation stater on here.

How it works is you take a time period and you state what you think are your clubs

5 worst signings

4 best signings

3 players who you feel left too soon

2 past legends who you would like in the current team

1 future signing

Because Gerrard has only been here for two and a half years I extended it to be from when we got promoted back to the SPFL in 2016 until now.

My list would be as follows:

5 worst signings

Barton, Pena, Grezda, Herrera, Senderos

4 best signings

Morelos, McGregor, Barisic, Kamara

3 who left too soon (this is the hardest one because I don’t think we really miss any players who we have sold in recent years).

McKay, Waghorn, Windass

2 past legends who you would like to see in the current side

Laudrup, Bougherra

1 future signing

Optimistic as hell but I think Harry Wilson is exactly what we need on the right hand side of our front three.

Ferguson

Forgot about Candieas would definitely have been a better option that most of the dross we’ve played in that position since he left.

5 worst - Senderos, Herrera, Barton, Grezda, Martin (too many to list really)

4 best - Morelos, Arfield, Barisic, McGregor (Kent, Kamara and Aribo unlucky to miss out)

3 too soon - Waghorn, McCrorie, Gilmour

2 past legends - Gough and Butcher (think the last few seasons in Europe has shown the limitations of our back two in taking us from a good European side to one that can make quarter finals of the Europa, or knock outs of the Champions League).

1 future signing - Similar player to Kent for the right hand side. Not sure who would be a realistic option.

Not convinced he’s any better than a Gregg Docherty tbh, but we do need more Scottish players in the squad so could be worth a punt on a free. 

Far better player than Docherty. Docherty's biggest strength was that he could run about a lot and was a bluenose.

5 - Grezda, Pena, Jones, Lafferty, Barton

4 - Morelos, Barisic, Goldson, Jack

3 - Gilmour, Waghorn, Cardoso

2 - Laudrup, McCoist

1 -Allan Campbell

Think he had one good game against Sheffield Wednesday tbh. Considering he's still playing for a mid table team in Portugal I think we got it right.

5. Barton, Senderos, Pena, Grezda, Herrera

4. Kent, Morelos, Kamara, Barisic 

3. Waghorn, Candeias, Windass 

2. Albertz & Laudrup

1. Nisbet might get players for this but realistic signing and would bring something to the team more so when Morelos goes

True, although the same can be said on most. Candeias is bobbing about with some Turkish jobbers, McCrorie is playing for Aberdeen, Waghorn is battling relegation from the Championship and Josh Windass has struggled to impress anywhere since leaving.

Yeah, other than Billy Gilmour, who likely would still be playing for the U20s if he stayed with us, I'm not crying over anyone leaving.

Weirdly although I didn't rate Garner that much I think he would be filling his boots with Tav and Barisic's deliveries. Same with Waghorn. Think both would probably have done well under Gerrard.
