CJGJ Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 He would be a great signing for us. Although isn't he a Striker/CAM? Attacking midfielder with decent goal scoring record in Scotland http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31136029 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambogemz Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 He would be a great signing for us. Although isn't he a Striker/CAM? Attacking midfielder. Just what we need IMO. Knows the league and has a good eye for goal, would be a very good siging for us. Norwich paid around ?1m for him but he has only played 6 or so games for them. They might be willing to do a deal to get him off the pay roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJGJ Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 In case we forget Andreu scored last minutes goal, in a 2?0 win against Hibernian, to keep the scoreline alive on aggregate. The match would keep going until it went on penalty shoot-out. Hamilton would win 4?3 on penalty shoot-out to relegate Hibernian and promoting Hamilton to Scottish Premiership, which Andreu convert the second penalty in the shoot-out.[18] After the match, Andreu described playing in the Scottish Premiership in the 2014?15 season as "a dream come true" and said the club deserved to be promoted.[19] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Tate Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Had to check, he was still being utilised pre season but hasn't even made a squad since. He's a bit old for a loan deal so I guess it comes down to whether he suitably enjoyed his time in Scotland, wants regular football and is happy to take a drop in wages. Based on above I'd say highly unlikely but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is though, I don't know where all the Barry Bannan for hearts has come from? The post I read a few pages back said we were looking at ex Hamilton AM and destroyer of the hibs Tony Andreu. Bannan would rip this league up but we could not afford his wages and it won't happen. Tony Andreu on the other hand has had a nighmare at Norwich but there's definatley a player in there and I would certainly be happy with singing him.

Admittedly I have only watched him for Scotland but he always appears to me to beat the man and then beat him again to play a safe ball. Not incisive.

Homme Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I have been on holiday on the moon so excuse my daft question. Who does Tony Andreu play for and how good is he meant to be ? He was a standout for Hamilton and helped relegate the vermin a couple of seasons ago. He won a move to Norwich but that hasn't quite worked out. No shame as it's a big step up.

Oh my days! wow wow wow... My point is he's another of those familiar midfielders without any real exception to his game. What you might call a safe midfielder. It takes all kinds of players to make a team and Hearts arguably have a couple of those type in Gomis and Pallardo but they have experience and bring real energy and stability to Hearts. I think we are looking to develop more all round midfielders with a bit of everything , which midfield should be all about , not just about being a defensive mid or an attacking mid. And cut down on the wows will you mate. (Cringe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannan would be an absolutely superb signing even on a loan deal. I would expect him to be one of our best in the last 20 years if we were to bring him in. I have absolutely no idea if there is any interest but he would be the perfect type of player for how RN wants us to play. He is really good technically on the ball, is happy to take it in tight areas under pressure and loves to play it on the deck and retain possession. He would link up very well with our other attacking players. Would easily fit into our setup and be a stand out. God alone knows who some think we even as a 'big' club in Scotland are in a position to sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
