Can't quite believe we're almost at the end of the Season, have to say, It has flew in, I know there is still a good few weeks left, but the Manager will be thinking about next season for sure.

 

The likelihood is that GMS & Shinnie will be off, they'd surely have agreed an extension by now if they weren't? McKenna may have more interest and may leave, Stewart will go, Lowe will go, Gleeson ( Still not had a fair crack of the whip in my opinion ) will more than likely go also, Forrester already off the books, Hoban sadly injured, Reynolds off to Dundee United ( All the best ) James Wilson (  )  we will be rather light yet again.

 

We're a good amount of players down. What are the key positions that we need to address? Will we finally expand our scouting network?

 

This is arguably the most difficult task, in terms of recruitment, that McInnes will face.

 

 

 

 

I’d certainly rather have Wilson over May, but then again, most people over May. I’d like Bruce Anderson to get May’s playing time this season, time to develop him. I’d have Main and Wilson as a front two, although I think DM sees Wilson more as a wide right player.

We'd have to instantly make Wilson our highest paid player to get him onboard and I just don't think he's worth the outlay. It was patently obvious for the past 2 years that he was finished at Man U yet not one lower EPL club thought he was worth taking a punt on and when he has went on loan to the Championship, like up here he was totally underwhelming.

 

I still believe there will be a (very) low end Championship club or top end EFL1 club willing to make him their marquee summer signing and paying him £10-12k/week which would certainly take us out the equation. However I think he is a classic "too much too soon" case and now being a multi millionaire hasn't really got the drive to really push himself to get to the top level in football.

 

 

Outside bet? Salford City make him an offer he can't refuse as their mega marquee signing.....

Should not be signing Wilson on the back of a couple of decent games at the end of the season. Did not do anywhere near enough to earn a permanent deal for me. Far to many games where he was totally anonymous.

Some dude called John Gallagher has signed on loan from Atlanta utd

I would still be delighted if he stayed.  Don't get me wrong I can understand the concerns mentioned but I just think he's a really good player and we would be a better side with him in it.

 

He is, but no man is bigger than the club, would you want him here if we are his last resort ?

 

russ richardson with thr d/m/f/l filter on fm , a quintessential mcinnes utility signing, hopefully not pish everywhere

Excuse my ignorance but what exactly is the rest of the MLS season ?

march to october ?

Interesting to note that Jon Gallagher is listed on one site as a forward, and a right back on another. Right back would be my thought.

march to october ?

 

Hardly worth it if it is only until October

Starts again in March so maybe the loan will be until January window.

 

From clips on line this lad looks more right winger than right back.

Weve knocked back a 5m offer for mckenna from the dhimmery.

We should only be selling McKenna to Victim FC if they are making an offer that pays for Kingsford. For the player himself he should be looking for move to England or Europe as the next stage of his development and not another Scottish club.

Rhecord saying the rumoured McKenna bid isn't true.

 

As for Gallacher……..seems he is indeed a right back though has played further forward earlier in his career, England U18 caps too. Still a strange one. You'd think Virtanen would be adequate back up to Logan at this point and signing this guy will only hinder Virtanen' s progress although I guess we might send him out on loan in turn. Still no fackin left back though!!!!!

According to Atlanta’s website he is a forward who has played games in midfield and at right back.

i fear this guy will be a fucking shiter 23 , must be a late developer ..

You're surely taking the piss LA?  Are you missing being involved in those end of season relegation battles?

Celtic apparently lining up a deal for Max Lowe to replace Tierney. Would be gutted, but its another reason these loan deals just dont work out for us. Anyone who does well ends up getting a better deal elsewhere.

Paper talk Dan, wouldn't lose too much sleep over this.

Reckon the only way he would end up there is as a permanent signing.

In my opinion Derby won't be bothered about the fact that they would probably pay a higher percentage of his wage. I reckon for them the priority is to get Lowe guaranteed first team football and I don't reckon thats something that Victim FC will guarantee him as reckon they will sign a.n.other as first choice and Lowe would be back up.

Logan will have telt Lowe that the Tims are a bunch of scummy racist fucks and he'll take a huge paycut to join his beloved dandies.

I think the sevco rumour about Lowe was just paper talk but if Tierney does leave Celtic will be in need of a replacement. I'm not sure what Derby would value Lowe at now but if Celtic offered £3million with a future sell on fee I doubt they'd turn it down.

According to BBC Scotland rumour page, The Victims are currently looking at three left backs as a replacement for Teirney. I'm not convinced (only my opinion) that Lowe is necessarily their number one target.

The others are Boli Mbombo & Milad Mohammadi

I’d take Wilson over May if the money is right, you wouldn’t? Plus based on what I’ve seen of Main I think he’s better than Cosgrove. However, in my ideal I’d take none of them!

They might as well just cut their losses with May and give him a free if anyone is willing to take him.  Signing Wilson based on last season is pure madness, cannot imagine why you would put him ahead of Cosgrove in the queue given Cosgrove's goals last season.  Must admit I have not seen much of Main at all, fingers crossed on that one.

I understand that St Johnstone want May back, according to their fans anyway, but we paid close to 500k for him, did we not? Yes, he's absolutely mince and been a complete failure, but I'd be pretty pissed off if we released him for nothing, at least try and claw some sort of fee back, maybe between 150k-250k.

 

Or, let him go out on loan, hopefully he gets played as an out and out Striker, and gets some sort of confidence back.
