He's been linked with Burnley, but Swansea supposedly came in for him in January and he didn't go. I think he is actually a Barnsley fan so getting him to leave may be pretty difficult. especially to 'that club' ha ha ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've missed mcgugan so that makes 9. 9 players for 4/5 positions is not 'well short'. We do however need to bring some variety into the midfield mix because the vast majority of the midfield play through the middle leaving us short on width. Matias is not good enough...end of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballmeist Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 1 hour ago, billyblack said: I was going off the squad list on our official website. Mcgugan isnt even on it anywhere. melo isnt on there either. Are they actually counted at all? If Hutch is a midfielder despite every man and his jack russell insisting he should play at CB then we are short in defence. Which one is it, CB or CM? Matias fair enough, just going off the official site. Still top heavy and light everywhere else. We need to sign a couple of players to cover areas but we're not well short as you previously stated. We've just released a load of players and it's early doors in the transfer market. Hutch played a handful of games at centre back, the rest of the time he's been in midfield.

QPR were supposed to have had a £1 million bid for McLean knocked back at the start of the window. Well The Daily Record are linking McLean with Birmingham and Rangers today.

To my mind that makes the judgement about his worth to the club easier, especially as he got himself sent off in the last match having had very little impact to that point!

Sure at this stage we have to accept he's unlikely to be a success here. I just take issue with people saying he's definitely not good enough when he's hardly played. The reality is he has 1 year left on his contract and won't now command any sort of fee. He's probably not on mega bucks so I don't see that we have much to lose by keeping him on this season as long as Carlos feels he has something to offer.
