    Got to say i was a fan of Lauriente but Adingra is just so much better as an option

    Not seen enough of any of the players we've signed.

    What I can remember is the mag/rangers fan at work saying Amad was nowt special when he came in on loan.

    Ain't it amazing what a run of games and backing can do for a lads career.

    Don't worry about the money. It's about £65m net, and they know what they can do. As for experience, the one thing I'm sure we won't be doing is buy peak age experienced PL players. They just cost way too much. As KS said shortly after Wembley, there is more than one kind of experience.

    Plenty of time!

    There must have been some serious hardwork going on behind the scenes for a longtime to come up with 2 lists of signings for both divisions with us obviously not knowing which league we’d be in

    Then with the pace we have signed players and us being promoted later than anyone else after winning the playoffs it is so so impressive

    fair play to everyone involved

    The players are bairns with a high sell on. If one of these shine during our campaign then their price sky rockets.

    If they set the AFCON alight their stock will increase!!!

    I reckon the wingers will be
    LW - Andingra/Mundle
    RW - Talbi/Roberts
    Which looks spot on to me
    We then have Myenda, Enzo and Isidore to cover if needed

    I’d prefer a RW with Talbi then able to cover both sides tbh. Would give us good rotation with 3 decent wingers. Roberts is a waste of time, if we get an injury and he has to step in I’d be worried

    think this is massive

    they’ve seen an opportunity to sign players cheaper because they go to afcon which could have major upside

    Was Alese training today? It will be interesting to see what his role is because he was first choice centre back at the beginning of last season.

    I’m hoping we add some height at CB and at DM. We need tall players to defend set pieces

    I saw that Salis Abdul Samed and Neil El Aynaoui played together in the Lens midfield during the 23/24 season, wonder how they compared with each other on data metrics.

    Roberts is certainly not a waste of time, he will contribute a lot I reckon.
    I agree he won’t be a regular starter.

    I do sympathise with Keith personally. He’s doing his job and reporting on the premier league which is all sky care about

    This will be the case with a lot of the players. Some of the signings might actually find themselves looking in and wanting to get back in.

    Just as it should be. We need numbers and quality. What promotion does is not cast aside the players who got us there, most of them will feature, and most of them IMO, will be fine.

    But it does mean that those looking in last season and who aren't kids, will probably need a new home.
