    all a bit weird, but our recruitment team are good at curveballs. having watched a bit of his video montage he plays much deeper than Pritch, tackles and moves.....so more to fit in the Evans role by the looks of it (based on the limited video intel), and someone to coach/develop into that role over time. he ain't oven ready, surely?

    Recruitment team deserve huge credit for getting him here mind. Superb signing and we’ll make good money on him. Win win.

    there does seem to have been recently, so here is my take to hopefully put that one to bed...

    re cirkin: right, he started 'slow' and did seem to be struggling a wee bit for his first games, this was not unexpected if people are honest, he then got stronger as he got used to being in the team and was looking good when he was out with an injury...on his return he seemed to have slipped backwards a bit but soon found his feet again and imho he improved game after game, this season he has started as he finished last season and now looks as if he feels a part of the team and the club, i honestly cannot remember too many comments putting the lad down or calling him but i dare say if i searched i would find some of the 'usual squad' having a go at each player on different days.

    i don't think you are getting ahead of yourself, the problem with us fans currently is that we have suffered years of the club being badly run but right now i think we are seeing what can happen when someone with a good football pedigree comes along and puts a definite plan into place without hoying millions and millions at it, while we all doubt and do not expect to get 'instant champions league' as some seem to do, we can see that the club is finally moving the right way and after the past years that is all we dare ask right now.

    It would be some achievement if he walked straight into a championship team, with his very limited experience. Makes me think a loan wouldnt really work. Who knows though, like you say our recruitment team have a good track record.

    From that video he looks like he’d slot straight in alongside Evans and bring some much needed energy in the middle.

    From July the 26th when someone was asking if we're looking outside the UK for players. My response.

    Maybe some players available after the cup games, especially if some bigger teams go out

    I see Morelos is bombed out of Rangers squad for their European tie. Possibly the beginning of the end for him there... i wonder if they will all of a sudden make a big push for Stewart? For all the talk of bringing players in, I hope we are not backed into a corner with anyone being tempted away. I know he has a couple of years left with us, but it is still easy for players to force a move. I dont think he is that type of lad, fingers crossed.

    It is the same boy I watched for PSG U19s, moves the ball really quickly and will look to play forward into feet - the game I watched he misplaced 1 pass. He has played a few times for their 1st team so obviously highly rated

    He was dropped because of lack of fitness and poor attitude. Stewart wont leave this summer, seems to love it here and is continuing to develop - hope he signs a new contract once the window is closed

    I dont think so. The report says it is attitude and fitness. Van Bronckhurst not impressed it seems, and Moreles equally stubborn.
