Been a waste of time and effort. The way it went, it seems like him or his agent moved the goal posts at the end. He seemed keen, then it all went opera shaped very quickly.

No biggie when it's 18 months and probably not on a bumper contract. The guy is utterly shite though. I struggle to understand how anyone thought he might make it this season.

I always thought that's what Scouts were paid to do but apparently not for a number of our signings. The guy had scored 4 goals in 99 appearances for Copenhagen and he's supposedly a winger. Berra had scored 4 goals in a fewer number of games for us before he left for Wolves. Surely these sorts of things raise alarm bells?

Absolute Scenes Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 how have we managed to get onto to slagging Amankwaa (AGAIN) on a thread about an ex hearts player?? Some folk canny help themselves For the record, I think Amankwaa is going to come onto a good game for us. When he was younger, Arsenal and Chelsea were after him and he's been capped at every youth level for his country that isn't by accident. He's got talent, we have yet to see it though I trust Levein's judgement in players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think only a short term deal wouldn't have been done as Levein would have known he wasn't fit enough to come straight in and show what he can do. He had to go into an intensive fitness course for a couple of weeks mind, and he didn't even look fully fit after that. Hopefully he can get his base fitness back and we'll see if there is a still a player in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBOOOA BLAIR Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Sorry not for me. After watching the pace of mulraney last night and hooefully get a right winger with the same skills and pace as i dint think its goung to be Aramankwa. Skinnys kissing of the badge comes at a price . I like players that get to the bye line and whip in a cross . Was never fully convinced. Just my opinion . Glad to be proved wrong. If he comes hell have my support . Just dont like the way its been done. Maybe his agent at fault who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have been on a bus to the plane still. I dunno where he was flying from but I'm sure he was in Nice a few weeks back, if he was flying from there then the only BA flights were to London.
