ScotBear 144 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Doesn't bother me in the slightest to be honest. I'd like to see a centre back come in to compete/replace with Weir. I've cooled on a left back because Whittaker and Papac are competent and Smith is on the road to recovery. Anything else would be a bonus for me. As long as we keep a hold of our own players, we have enough to win this title, no question. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leiper 0 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I agree we are not the finished article, but I believe we have enough in the squad at the moment to win the treble, nevermind the league. Walter said before the window opened he won't be buying for the sake of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 41,960 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Too many people are letting the fact that Celtic have signed a player, and are nbeing linked with others annoy them and perhaps it's making them a bit jealous. WS has already said that he has been rejected in his approach for players and that probably means that we are now moving onto other targets, who we will need to assess first. We have been linked with Banks, Larsen, Taylor, Moore, Berra among others so there is rumours in the press. By taking his time WS is ensuring that he signs the right players and not any old dross. I'd be more concerned if he signed a token player just to shut up the fans who are incapable of a bit of patience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR 1,479 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I would rather we strengthened in the summer. Walt has said he wont sign for the sake of it and we have 2 enquiries knocked back - so I wont be surprised if we dont do any business this January regarding signings. Just because the window is open doesnt mean we HAVE to sign someone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only SOLID link was Banks who rejected us and stayed at Hearts,The larsen one was a bit of a piss take. Martin bain was handed a DVD of the player to see if Rangers were interested <_< Taylor,moore and Berra were mostly Internet rumours Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff 245 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 No point in signing players just to please some fans. If we can't get the real quality in required then there is no point in making signings. Accept from a back-up keeper as Roy Carroll wants to leave. I'd hate for us to go out and sign the likes of Barry Robson and David Murphy just for the sake of it. January is a sh*te time to buy/sell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 41,960 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 We're only papaer thin if we lose players to injury or sell them. McGregor, Carroll Hutton, Whittaker Cuellar, Ugo Weir, Webster Papac, Broadfoot Burke, Novo Ferguson, Adam Hemdani, Thomson Naimsith, McCulloch Boyd, Cousin JCD, Buffel. Plus there are guys like Gow, Webster, Smith, Smith, Lennon and Furman. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamd1986 8 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Relax, WS has always kept quiet over his transfers and targets. No wonder, last season everyone we went in for Celtic jumped on the same bus just to try and spite us. Theres an element of class about not going around shouting from every paper who we're linkied with just for the sake of it. Besides we shouldn't be signing players just for the sake of it as WS says. It'll only be worth it if they are players of real quality who will improve our team. Otherwise its best to save the money and buy the right player at the right time, when they become available to us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When teams come to play us our threats are Ferguson creating and hutton making bombing runs McGregor aint a threat to other teams,Cuellar and Thomson job is to break up the play not a threat going forward! Do you think other teams Managers go right boys we need to stop McGregor today or Cuellar or Thomson? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
docspiderman 885 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I prefer summers transfers where there is a better class of player available and to buy for progress on the european front. To be honest I see no one in the spl that I would like to come into the club just now and if we must buy in January it has to be someone who will be an asset for home and in europe.

BlueSuedeSambas 41,960 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Ferguson has been underperfomring for months and it's his name rather than performances that people are singling him out for At this moment in time I would say that our most vital players are actually Hemdani, Naismith and Burke. Hemdani is just class act and since he came back into the midfield three we have looked like a far more composed and balanced unit. His play rubs off on others. Naismith and Burke are vital in the formation we play as it reuqires players who are direct and have good pace and movement. They add a whole new dimension to our team.
