Summer Signings Confirmed


Recommended Posts

Don't get me wrong - I don't watch that much Hearts. So I'm not thinking my opinion stands for much but he just seems quite Jamie Langfieldish. Few good games, the odd howler, butter fingers at times. Know a few Hearts fans who don't rate him much either, but maybe that's just because their last keeper was so much better. Fits his face? He was decent.

Canna be that much of a specialised position if Langfud can make a career out of it

Langfud is the definition of special though...when ever an unfortunate and the Paisley Spastic is certainly an unfortunate...does well anything...he will have been told he's "special"...I've banned myself from visiting his twatter...his moronic weegie chat coupled with that dreadfull profile shot of him and his "Aunt Sally" wife is enough to turn the stomach.

How many have we signed so far, just 2, isn't it?

 

When will it be time to be concerned. Is McInnes still on his hols? Pre-season training starts in a fortnight.

 

After his "clearout" I would have thought we needed to acquire a few more by now, or is he banking on the young lads being able to do it for him?

Looking at who the gaffer has punted out the club and who he has brought in so far I'm pretty happy. Flood and Robson are proven at this level and from the bits and pieces I've seen of the boy Zola over the years I reckon he'll cause issues for SPL defenders.

 

We still need a 'keeper, 2 right backs (Quinn, Wilson, Simek, Hamill, Saunders...), a left back (Easton, Grainger), another central midfielder (Arfield, Davidson, Stevenson) and Gregg Wylde to give us some options.

 

Still struggling to see a future for Clark and possibly Pawlett and Vernon.

 

Hope McInnes keeps up the good work! I love this feeling of optimism during the summer transfer window...

I like how we are going about business this year. Keeping quiet until the deal was done with Flood and Zola (never really saw it coming with him at all) and McInnes seems to be saying the right things. He has come in, got rid of the lads he doesn't want, and brought in some players who look to be adding to the squad.

 

Need to get the Wylde rumour sorted one way or the other soon though.

So what we looking at so far?

 

A goalkeeper

 

Shaughnessy --- Considine/Anderson --- Reynolds --- Wylde/Robertson

 

Hayes --- Jack --- Flood --- Robson

 

Zola --- McGinn

 

Or will it be 4-3-3 with Hayes joining fron 2? Or even Wylde?

 

Magennis, Smith, McManus attacking options from bench?

Low, Masson, Storie kid back up from midfield? Pawlett?

 

Still think we might be getting a FB of some sort, a striker and a keeper yet.

Maybe a new RB with Shaughnessy cover for there and CB.

Da' ken.

A new goalkeeper and left sided player should be priority now.

 

Don't think we can go through the season with only Robson and Robertson. Not sure Robson still has the legs for it and big question marks still surround Robertson... hopefully he can step this season.

Looking at Low and Wylde (assuming we get him) on that side.

Surely an improvement on what we had there last season player for player with Hughes & Milsom.

Add Robson in there too...but of course we are also "missing" Naysmith. For all he played.

I would like to see a LB taken in like...

Full back comfortable on either side, keeper and Wylde and we would be looking pretty good.

 

Currently

 

Langfield

 

Shaunessey Anderson Reynolds Considine

 

Jack Flood Robson

 

Hayes Zola McGinn

 

subs: Robertson, Clark, Pawlett, Low, Vernon, Magennis, Smith, McManus, Masson

transfer listed: Jordon Brown

 

Given another couple signings and no injuries and I think Jack will start the season at right back

That would be a mistake IMO.

 

The lads future is in midfield. We need to build it around him.

Correct. McInnes was in paper yesterday saying that we will have as good a midfield in the league with Jack, Robson and Flood. So here's hoping its midfield for Jack this year.

It will be. I'm certain if he wanted to play Jack at full-back next season he'd have played him there in last seasons remaining games

Yeah from McInnes comments about the midfield 3 being dynamite or something like that (Robson, Flood and Jack) looks like being 4-3-3 next season. Hope it's better than almost every other time we try it.

 

I've admittedly got more confidence in it with the likes of McGinn in the team but we'll see.
