Spit_It_Out Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 On a serious note out with Miller who in our team would command a decent fee? Clearly AS was brought in in the hope he would do us a turn get good and sell on but that's looking like 50/50 for me still time to shine. Slattery might get us a low 6 figure fee decent enough player. We really need quality and let's be honest it doesn't take that much quality to look fantastic in Scottish football I hope Wimmer is backed ten fold to do so.

Stama has 2 years left on his contract so he does still have ‘time to shine’. However, given he’s made of tissue paper and is 10,000 miles from home, I think the best we can hope to get from our investment is a few more goals and assists. He certainly hasn’t put himself in the shop window this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't afford this type of player on our books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve amassed a bloated squad littered with crocks and duds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 I would give Stama a pre season and until the January transfer window 2026 if we don't see anything by then maybe best to part ways if we can but I have the feeling he might be off this summer. Seen glimpses of something but he needs to stay fit as a fiddle week in week out and I don't think that part is achievable sadly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shouldn’t be going anywhere this summer unless another club offers us some decent money for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 Stama wasn't played properly by Kettlewell at first, was playing the lone striker role. When we went 2 up top with Stama and Maswanhise they were looking a good partnership. I am not writing Stama off yet , a full pre season and hopefully wimmer can get best out him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing more than ever since his new baby arrived he's been permanently injured and unavailable, very little mention of him from Fir Park, so just an opinion.

Did he break his arm to spend more time with the baby? I don't know how unsettled he is, but I also don't see this as an Ian Vigurs "sore back" situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texanwellfan Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 Not because of yesterday but I’d sign Watt (reasonable wages of course) he’s not injury prone, experienced, can actually control a ball and pass, decent level, just needs kept in line for fitness and attitude. As good as or better than a lot of the signings we’ve made the past couple of years. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good as or better than a lot of the signings we’ve made the past couple of years. I agree. In the right set up he could be an asset. I don't think he would demand a fortune in wages. Once he got riled up by Holt yesterday he really showed what he can contribute. Perhaps along with the rest make a point of handing him a nice wee fitness programme and diet sheet over the summer though. That said, no matter which attackers we end up with I hope we don't isolate a single striker and hope for miracles. On that basis I'm looking forward so seeing what a fit and supported Ap Stam can do with a decent run in the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsince75 Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 re Watt - much would depend on our style of play. As part of a front 3 or sitting just behind the strikers he's an asset. The issue for me is 1) He's had all season to prove himself and show what he has. There's only been glimpses. 2) The formations we've often played haven't suited him. This could continue to be an issue. To retain him for me we'd have to get rid of of several other contracted forward players and play more than 1 up front. That being said he's the other loanee forward I'd consider retaining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 Sorry but one good game dosent deserve a contract cause soon as it was signed on the dotted line Watt would be back to below par run outs lets not kid ourselves on here. Its time to move on. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Stall Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 When he plays well he's a real asset. The problem is we only see it once in a blue moon. For me, that was probably his best game since he returned from utd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
