Lees and Thorniley are the only two we have that we trust. van Aken's unproven and injury prone. Hector isn't ours and probably costs a lot more than we can afford at this moment. Findlay's just 23, big, capable, and well thought of. Some suggesting he's not far off the international squad. Bruce's record buying Scottish players is pretty good. Andy Robertson obviously, but also McGinn at Villa who's hit the ground running this season. Previous buys include Shaun Maloney and Allan McGregor, so he hasn't bought a bad Scottish player.. yet. ;) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC1867 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 If this indicates a change in focus (younger players on the up) I am delighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wonder where we wold be likely to make £1m worth of sales? As Bruce said the other week- " We might have to sell one or two. That’s part of the equation. But... we’ve still got to have a team!" One big sale perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swfcjam Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Van aken is off back to Holland so we need another center half. That’s without the fact we may struggle to resign Hector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwokenGiant Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 If he’s owt like the last Scottish lad he signed at Villa, we’re in for a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowl Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 We are going to send a scout to watch him according to the article and we are prepared to offer £1M. How do we know he's worth it until the scout has had a look at him? Bruce's lad might have tipped us off but quoting a figure is premature at this stage.

Groundhopping Owl Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Kilmarnock have been excellent this season, especially at the back, but it's one of those cases where I worry that their players wouldn't look half as good outside of Steve Clarke's system.
