Would rather keep Said up front that waste a penny on Dykes. He doesnt currently play in the Scottish Premiership. And I never said we should sign him. But that doesnt mean he wouldnt score goals in the SPL for the right club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see him doing much better in the Premiership than his 1 goal for Birmingham the season he played in League 1. His best ever season was 12 league goals in 42 games 6 years ago and he hasn't hit double figures since. Falls in to the overrated category for me, but just my opinion.

Turnbull - although I agree he’s a class player - similarly wasn’t fast enough or had the stamina at Celtic under the Aussie manager (can’t be arsed trying to spell his name) to play a fast pressing game so not sure about him. I’ll add to that the more obvious thing is that we’ve no chance of getting him on loan You mean Ange? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be nonsense, but just wondering if anyone else heard anything? Oh jeese, no! For me let’s not waste a penny of our valuable money even if we could afford it on this total donkey!

Spit_It_Out Posted Sunday at 09:27 AM Report Share Posted Sunday at 09:27 AM A signing like Dykes is exactly the opposite to what we need dont think its going to happen anyway 100 percent more of a Hibs signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor could easily be added to this list - he’s been pretty much crocked since arrival . 3 guys who are regularly injured and even when fit doubtful that they’re any good . be interesting to see what happens with TW - perhaps he stays as thought he’d be gone by now.

We could do with yon lanky man on the right with the stetson up front this season. When you see the negative comments on this thread about Dykes it astounds me that he (and Ché Adams) kept getting selected by Clarke, who didn't seem to rate Shankland (or anybody else) at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted 22 hours ago Report Share Posted 22 hours ago 19 minutes ago, Happyhonest said: Interesting article https://www.scottishfootball.info/p/the-troubling-task-of-replacing-elijah A common mistake, at least amongst journalists and fans, is to think individuals need replaced. While it's true to some extent, that's not really how it works. Classic case is Lennon Miller. After we sold him, we reshaped our midfield, brought in guys like Fadinger, Watt and Just and changed the way we played. In the end, we had a stronger midfield that the one Miller played in, without ever replacing Miller directly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
