Talk that weโ€™re signing Jamie Walker from youโ€™s, any chance of this happening, or is it just shite?

ย 

Swap deal with Shankland. Seems legit.

Considering Walker's level now and being a key man for Robbie Neilson at Hearts, going to United in the Championship seems very possible.ย

Because they are loan deals we will have no way of knowing what percentage of these players salaries are being covered.ย  I would be surprised if it was any more than 50%.ย  Still it's better then them staying here, never playing and us having to pay their full wages.

ย 

I was more thinking about their poisonous ways, tbh.ย

Why? They'll be in the top league in a few months.ย ย

Berra to Dundee is a strange one when they couldn't afford Wighton.

Thought same

ย 

Doesn't necessarily mean they can't afford all wages. Might have been that they didn't want to spend as much as hearts were wanting on a striker that's scored 0 goals in 2 calender years. They might want to pay over the odds for a internationally capped, ex hearts captain, defender. Also hearts might be paying part of the deal as a sort of, sorry for throwing you under the bus Berra who has 18 months left on your contract.

You think Walker will play much for Hearts?ย 

ย 

I just answered the question whether him going to United is credible. It is.ย 

ย 

Walker is good enough for a Premiership club.ย

ย Advijaj was released by Trabzonspor so is our player, we may have an option to extend his contract though

ย 

Langer had 6 months remaining with Schalke but doesn't appear to be a loan from reading the article so maybe negotiated his release?

ย 

Means no fees to pay if they perform for us and are keen to stay

ย 

Yes, Langer negotiated an early release and has left Schalke.

And your inference is?ย  Is it an issue with you?

No inference at all and absolutely no issue - it was just an observation (for those who maybe hadn't seen the interview).

But if he's not good enough for a bottom of the league Hearts side what makes you think he'll be good enough for Dundee United in the top league? They are obviously not buying him to win the Championship, it's done and dusted already.ย

Unfortunately his wages will be a stumbling block to getting rid of him, heโ€™s alsoย contracted until 2021.

Though not too exciting on paper, every team needs someone who gets their hands dirty, different jobs, make a team.

ย 

Offers versatility too, we haveย a window to see if he is a fit or not.

ย 

If he banjo's a few vermin along the way, so much the better :)

ย 

โ€™Bottom of the tableโ€™ is a false position though. There various reasons why weโ€™re bottom but itโ€™s not because every player in our squad is the worst player in the league in their positions.ย 

Heโ€™s more than capable of playing for Livi, Hamilton, St Mirren etc

So weโ€™ve got a couple of hundred Quidย off the wage bill โ˜น๏ธ

Doubt it. We didn't give them Wighton for peanuts and he signed on loan for Arbroath and scored.

They were competing with QoS so I wouldn't be surprised if they've pushed the boat out in terms of % of his wage

Regarding Wighton it is possible Dundee wanted to sign him permanently and we only wanted him to go out on loan ?

DS will not have seen him play too often but he will have seen the boy has ability .

I agree applying that ability in the first team does appear to be the problem .

One of the most importantย

Think Salvatori in that team. Brellierโ€™s role.

Counterintuitive maybe but a proper DM makes you more attacking.

Work with a few Barnsley season ticket holders and they have told me Thiam is a good player. DS obviously rates him which is good enough for me! Donโ€™t have a clue about the German striker thoughย
