So all going well we ship on 5/6. So that gets us down to 24/25. Even then I think that’s too many and the conversation can still be how do we ship out another 1-2. Rather than beginning thinking about offering new deals to older players before we’ve even got those 5-6 out the door yet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't build a midfield around that. Nobody’s suggesting building a midfield around him but he’s a good player to have around the squad provided wages are sensible.

Low wage or pay for play. Helander for the off, which leaves us Goldson, Davies, Souttar. King is 19 and needs a loan. Balogun would give us 4 solid CH's. With Lundstram if he stays, as a 5th and last resort. Mayo coming back as well ayrshireranger 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tav, Barasic, Goldson, Souttar, Lundstrum, Raskin, Cantwell, Sakala, Lawrence, Roofe etc will all be here. Thats a full team right there. celtic have 1 player (McGregor) still starting from the 55 season. Then at best we’ll probably only be able to shift about half of the Matondo, Davies, Hagi, Wright etc of the world Then you have King, Devine, Lowry etc coming through The squad is fucking massive. We don’t need to be thinking about signing Arfield, Davis, Jack to new deals for continuity. Continuity of what? The shite mentality embedded in the squad? We need to be going after quality players to win the title and younger talents with the potential to fund future investments. We need to get this squad player/continuity idea in the bin Surely if we offer jack a new deal, say its 15k a week thats 750k for the next year, rather than trying to find a new midfielder who'll cost a couple mill without wages J-Maestro 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows you just how much we think of our centre halves and their reliability that we want 4 seasoned pros on decent wages incase of emergencies Fuck that OrangeRab 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re not really counting on them. They’re squad players. King will be 4th or even 5th choice CB. Lowry will be behind Cantwell, Lawrence, Hagi, Tillman if we sign him. On top of whoever else we sign. Tavernier barely misses a game. Devine should be good enough back up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForeverAndEver 73,919 Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 How about Josh Windass?
