Word is Shane Long from my Dublin sources,though stats can be misleading,before he scored last week Kane had scored 50 goals since Long last scored which would suit our stats:azn:

Reports today/over the weekend Joe Bryan (Bristol City - LB), Andre Schurle (Dortmund - AM) and Kevin Gamerio (Athletico - CF) are of interest.

If those three come in I'd be EXCEPTIONALLY happy. Kenedy on loan as well out on the wings would be a massive upgrade on Atsu and Ritchie!
TBH Think we'll end up with Brian Kennedy

Is he though? His goal record for Celtic is 1 in 2, which given the quality of the league isn’t all that good.

Gameiro for me please!

Gameiro won't happen - or at least I'd be shocked if it did. Honestly he would have a lot of options all round Europe. He is high quality.

Dembele is good. I've watched him and he is a real talent. People have this thing about lads in Scotland coming south. Van Dijk won't cut it - brilliant at Southampton, moves for 75m. Henrik Larrsson - only scoring because its Scotland. Goes to Barcelona does a cracking job as a bit part player. Same at Man U. Viduka - only scoring because its Scotland. 60 in 130 at Leeds (then gets fat). There have been other successes too in Wanyama, Petrov, Forster, Davis to name a few.

Honestly Scotland ain't that bad at the top teams, they still buy decent players. I'd happily take Dembele, Tierney, Forrest, and probably a few others into our squad and be confident they'd improve us.

What ever happened to Ryan Gauld after he moved to Sporting Lisbon? Can we not get him in for the number 10 role. You can't have that much ability and just lose it surely.
 
We are reportedly interested in Junior Stanislas<laugh> if there is an ounce of truth in it(which I doubt) then we are rightly ****ed!

Loaning reserve players from your relegation rivals = you’re ****ed!!

I live in Bournemouth and watched him quite a bit and think he good. He's only been in and out recently since being injured. He had been playing a big role for them. Him and King were their match winners for some time.
 
He does offer a threat because of his speed around the pitch but when he gets in front of goal his finishung is awful!

That makes him instantly better than Joselu in my book. I'm also working on the assumption that his finishing can't be as bad as Joselu's which is woeful at best. There was a time a few seasons back where I would have loved him at the Toon and I think he was linked with us as well. If nothing else to stop him scoring against us which he always seemed to do, until recently.
 
Tick tock. Five days til window shuts and literally one reasonably solid rumour. Even that looks dead in the water.

Two matchdays plus a Saturday in those five days, so more or less 2 working days left for Charnley to perform what would now be considered a miracle.

Why is this club, even with financial restrictions, such a complete and utter ****ing shambles?

I don't let it bother me anymore, Ashley is taking the piss, simple as that.
 
From the agent of Cenk Tosun;

“This is what happened,” Caliskan said speaking on A Spor.

“I don’t tend to talk to the media much, I brought over scouts from 10 clubs to watch Tosun.

“Six from the Premier League, two from Italy and two from Spain.

“I will only name the clubs that made an offer. Newcastle United made the first bid but all I’d say it was unserious.

“Crystal Palace were next to make a move, they offered €14 million three days before the end of the summer transfer window.”

Goes back to what we're saying elsewhere - how, exactly, is this **** Rafa's fault?

As l was saying, this all day.
 
Any news on Jack Hendry? See we were interested in December for about £1.5 now every man and his dog was watching him the other night and no doubt his price probably quadrupled, can't blame Dundee for that.
