Where’s the McLean chat coming from? Just cause some journalist said we were in for an out of contract striker?

I'd have thought that he'd have been worth a punt in the last few summers, Easton as well, when out of contract at StJ. 

steady spl players, presumably on affordable wages. 

surely only a a backup now & join the ever expending youthful coaching setup..

Ive met the guy once, we were both drunk on holiday in a foreign country. He was perfectly pleasant, as was I. Outwith that 2 hour experience I don't know the man at all.

 

I don't want him to be Hearts manager. I don't think we'll progress under him. I think he's made too many mistakes. Its been done to death and I am not alone in thinking this. My personal opinion of him as a person is actually quite positive but very limited and utterly irrelevant.

Theres a topic here mate. If you've got nothing to add it to it ( and so far you've added 3 or 4 petty insults only) then duck out for a while, theres a chap.

[Manny1874]

Noticed the following when I googled Maclean. Maybe Levein is looking for him to primarily help develop Keena whilst providing some low cost depth up front. 

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/43552709

 

"It's great to be back playing alongside someone like Macca. He's helped me for many years now. He's such a good player and is always talking to me.

"During training he's always giving me wee hints about where I should be positioning my body and where I should be taking my touches.

"He's a great guy and is always trying to help me out as much as he can."

McLean would be a clever signing. Smart player, would be good for a young striker to learn from.

We should be having players on the bench that can push the players on the pitch.  Players should be on the field knowing if they play badly then they can be replaced. 

 

I would say this is a bad move but its hopefully just paper tak.

You're wasting your breath mate. A very good point though. He has been solid this season.

 

Its because at 37 he's still as fit as a fiddle and plays professional football... its just the guys who are against him feel a bit self conscious when they look at themselves and see what Hughes is doing at that age.

Hughes has what 110 caps from Northern Ireland. Amazing experience, it's natural as centre back Levein would rate him and he does. I actually think the McLean story is good news, exactly what the squad needs: SPL experience and it shows Levein is big enough to make unpopular decisions

So, for every young player breaking into the team we have to have a mentor type in the background 'helping' them. I'd have thought thats why we have an array of coaching staff, all of whom have years of experience to pass on. Give Hughes a coaching job by all means but he is no longer a player who could be a regular first teamer. We have had far too many of those hanging about the club picking up a wage merely on the premise that they are 'good to have around'

I’m not saying he should be a first teamer but as back up he’s more than capable, and he’s been a big influence on the squad. One year dear on buttons is no brainer.

That's an utterly utterly ridiculous post.

 

We need senior players on the pitch to guide younger guys, not just coach them from the side-lines.

 

How the hell is a coach supposed to coach a player on the other side of the pitch???

 

Hughes is the most capped British player of all time. the fact he is with us is fantastic for the team.

 

total disrespect to a brilliant squad player that has served us well.

We are woefully short of starting first teamers of decent quality. Thats why we are sixth and thats got to be the priority. Thats where all the cash has to be spent this summer. Not some no mark 3-4 years passed his best, which even then was hardly pulling trees up.(McLean I am talking about )

An experinced type talking a player through a game is a good thing and I trust the types in the squad (a Michael Stewart or Jamie Hamill or Ryan Stevenson) not so much. I wouldn't bring in a players for Cochrane to learn from though, let him express himself

Just when we think your levels of foolery are reached, along comes another belter of a post.

 

The more experience around the club, the better. If we want a successful youth academy and these guys breaking into the squad, we need guys like...oh, I don't know... guys with hunners of caps. Guys who have played in the English PL, guys who have scored hat-tricks v Chelsea quite recently.

So what do we do about back up? The only reason Berra is playing still is cause there is no one else, his ankle is in bits. We need a squad of players, not just a first 11.

No objection to having experienced players in the team who can lead and contribute. However if  the prime reason for them getting a game, becomes to talk another player(s) through a game and they're not contributing a whole lot in their own right apart from that, its an empty jersey and a wasted wage.
