Any idea what his squad number will be? Had a look on club site but it's not mentioned.

Fantastic news!

 

 

brilliant news. didn't think there was a chance of this in a million years. Big ups to JC, WM and the artist formerly known as "that judas cunt McLeish".  nice to have positive thoughts about big Red again 

 

COME ON YE REDS!!

Just as I was falling out of love with the whole fitba thing they pull me back in again!

 

Nice one 

 

Can't wait to see this team gel and start winning some games wi a bit to spare...

 

Well, I can dream again!

good signing, and yet again afc pull one out the bag toward the close of the transfer window.

 

A player with lots of natural talent but still got a lot to prove.  Hopefully folk remember he is still only 19 and that in many games last season he didn't show the ability that he undoubtedly has and really showed in the european games. 

 

What a left side we could have over the next few years

Good time for him to sign with the international break coming up and very few of our players involved. Gives him time to get used to the team and JC's tactics before our next game.

not sure tbh

We were beginning to build a wee bit of momentum.  You'd think they might have a friendly arranged at some point in the next 2 weeks

Very good news.

 

We've signed another good player, one who is better than what we have, improving the standard. Excellent.

feel the positivity boys

Couldn't believe it when I heard about this on North Tonight.

 

Absolutely delighted with the news, never thought we could have got him on a permanent basis.

AFC had to make a signing like this, we are very one dimensional and hopefully this could free Smith up to do what he's excellent at rather than hug the left wing and get completely played out of the game.

here's hoping

will be interesting to see how JC lines the team up against Hamilton if everyone is fit.

Assuming we're finished with signings.

 

Aluko may well not start.

Had to laugh at Miller claiming on Northsound he couldn't announce the fee was Birmingham wanted it kept undisclosed.

 

Birmingham have it listed as 50k on their website.

Holy shit, we actually have a left side now!

that means Smith on the left

The Left Side!!

It does.

 

I'd be loathe to leave out Young though but I just think Calderwood will leave well alone after 2 wins on the road.

With no injuries between now and then, I don't think that he'll start but will play at some point. Especially with it being a home game.

In his first interview since signing, Sone was quoted as saying "I have come here to chew bubblegum, and kick ass."

 

It was noted by the crowd of reporters that Sone has apparently run out of bubblegum.

Man City have been linked with a move for Aluko! 

great signing made up with it certainly filled me with a little bit of hope

 

i still think we need two more players tho 

good signing......altho hes still got alot to learn!!!!........

 

19 tho, and a 3 year deal, culd develope into a really good player for us!

ROCK ON!!

 

This is slowly shaping up to be an impressive team we've got. Mulgrew has impressed me with his performances so far. Kerr seems to be quite handy. And now when I read that Sone had returned, I actually punched the air in jubilation! This is the quality of player we should ALWAYS be looking at. To sign a CURRENT England youth international for three years is a major coup, especially since we know what he is capable of.

 

His goal against Bayern was proof enough to me that he is the best striker we have by a country mile.

I'm wearing my Aluko pyjamas
