Busby8 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 1 hour ago, BigC said: He’s coming in January. Hearts want him now. They are holding out for a fee which we were unwilling to pay before KL left. They're also short of options and he is scoring goals just now so they don’t want to let him go, but if we add another £100k or so to the previous offer, it may be enough to let him come, and we should be able to afford to do that. Levein will have known that KL was likely to go for some time, so will have a plan. Most are assuming that Vanecek coming early is that plan, but he may surprise us! Can't see us paying too much of a fee to have him at Tynecastle now instead of in January. More likely that we get someone in on loan until Vanaceck is available.

It's possible that we've already agreed a fee ages ago and had to wait until Lafferty left to sign him because we didn't want to end up with 5 strikers and 3 of them not playing every week. Though it was a five figure fee to get him early....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syd Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 1 hour ago, E3OBE said: Is he actually a direct replacement for Lafferty though? (Not disputing he might improve our overall squad) Vanecek appears to be an out and out striker where Uche/McLean have been playing. Lafferty has been playing off the left hand side. Surely we need a forward or winger who can play there? Enter Demi Mitchell on the left wing? sy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps not, but when big Uche & MacLean were out of sorts at the weekend, which could happen again, it would be better to call upon an experienced Czech striker, rather than an unproven young Scottish lower league player. Maybe the money that the Club would spend to get him here a few months early, might just be worth it re league position & Cup Final appearances at the end of the season..

Sierra Delta Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Shankland's an interesting one. Done well in the lower leagues and started the season very well (was apparently very impressive against Dundee at the weekend), but at £250k it's quite an expensive gamble for somebody who has scored goals in the lower leagues. Could be great, or could be like Gavin Reilly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
