NorthernLights 2,526 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Would love a driving force in centre midfield. Somebody who can take the ball and run with it. Just a little one-paced in there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf he's had just over a year to acclimatise to a new system, i defo think play him in the middle of a 3 man attacking mid and he'll shine like fuck, I also really wanna see wright get more game time, he looks the part to terrorise opponents, a scottish kent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMRFC 4,780 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 We already have the guy from Bournemouth coming in. CM, ST, and a CB needed. Probably a back up LB needed too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont need a CB, goldson, helander, simpson, Katic and edmundson on the book, thats not including balogun who might be offered a new deal, we need to move at least 2 centre halves if we want a new one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also we need a better quality CB, one who’s as good if not better than Goldson. If it was up to me we go and get a CB who’ll be up to UCL quality.

When you say CL quality do you mean qualifying quality or starring in it and getting to the latter stages of it quality Because goldson is easily the first, and the 2nd is well out of not only our price range but our wage range as well unfortunately Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Aribo could become a key player for us, he is just young and going through a bit of bad form. I certainly would not be looking to cash in now, I think next season he will kick on and become something special. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Viking 702 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 We certainly need to bring in 2 midfielders - Through our years we have had so much strength and talent in that area- players like Ian Durrant , Barry ferguson , Van Bronckhorst , Madjid Bougherra and Jörg Albertz - the list is endless - strengthen that area with that kind of caliber and we will have yet again another successful season.

It’s certainly not a shambles, it’s just an area where we need to strengthen because we’ll be looking at a step up in quality in Europe and it’s highly unlikely that celtic will be as bad as they have been this season again next year. It’s far from unlikely that septic will be as bad next season as they have been this season. We are looking to upgrade; they are looking to fill holes. Our management is first class; theirs is a shambles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquire8 42,727 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 One thing is for sure we shouldn't be looking anywhere near the big 5 leagues. Zungu being valued more than what we paid for Barasic is clear that them markets should be well clear of. There will be a diamond out there somewhere that will be the answer, Wilson n co just have to find him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,836 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I think Scott Arfield is a quality guy but he gets way too much love on here as a player. The upside to Aribo compared to Arfield is night and day. Granted, Joe was shite today but it can't be easy playing in different positions all the time and switching from right to left. We have a quality midfielder in Hagi but we insist on playing him wide right, Look at the quality of his pass to Kent when he plays central. I don't get why we don't utilize him properly.

HuistraHairDo 12,490 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Don’t know how to judge it yet tbh Morelos is adding £££ every game he plays, I can see a team from the EPL making a bid, the money that is getting banded about is ridiculous down there, I definitely think we could make stupid money for him. Probably money that we couldn’t turn down. If that was the case we could be looking in a better market for players. I think we can safely say we have a decent Europa League standard of team, if we want to be a Champions League standard we would need to replace a lot of players. We have a decent spine to our team, McGregor, Goldson,Barasic,Tav, Kamara Jack Davis, Kent, Hagi Morelos, Roofe If we could add without losing players it would be ideal, but I fear we will lose one or two of them. suppose it all depends on how much money we end up with Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s 24, been bang average for two seasons and at end of next season will be entering his last season of contract. Sell for anything over 3/4 million.

Look at their 11 today. Both fullbacks are loans that go back, main threat imo today elyounoussi goes back as well. Not to mention guys like Edouard going into final 12 months. It's going to take them some time to replace. If we can get 2-3 bits of quality in the summer while retaining key players we should be looking at pulling ahead of them further.

Gman36 3,455 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 2 hours ago, The Beast said: We rely way to much on Davis even forgetting his age. The only player who comes close to his ability to control a midfield is Jack and his fitness is suspect. Davis has been brilliant this season, and remarkably resilient for his age. Next season we might not get the same out of him, could be spells of injuries or slowing down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he makes no effort to win the ball back, he does it pretty much every big game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
