Mr Rabbit Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Good signing especially as we’re not tied in and should give us a bit of dig. I would like that during his time with us he stops being a mouthpiece for the huns. Appreciate that’s who he supports but was always very cringey seeing Boyd/ Griffiths/ Bartley bleat on about their old clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzas right boot Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Naismith, halliday even Gordon back. They know how to win things and have a horrible streak. Good stuff. I'd be happy with him normally, but given our position, quite a coop imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartsfc_fan Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Decent enough signing tbh. I wasn't too keen on the idea first but he'll slot right in with no adjusting to being in a different country etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busby1985 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Something must’ve changed pretty sharpish with Halliday as this wasn’t on the cards two weeks ago. He wanted to go down south or MLS and had turned down Hibs and an approach from Aberdeen. Buzzing to have him on board. Great attitude and got good patter.

Bozi Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 4 hours ago, DC_92 said: Neilson hasn't said anything about another centre-back, and Dikamona for Popescu is one in/one out, so I'd be surprised if we added another on top of that. Halkett and Popescu will be first choice, with Berra, Haring and Smith as cover. We are looking for a CDM, which would free up Haring to play there more often when needed. If we were signing another defender on top of the left-back we're already looking for then I'd prefer it to be a right-back. That would free up Smith, who's arguably our best CB, to play there regularly and leaves room for a more attacking full-back to come in. That makes sense, we will have a lot of the ball this season so having Haring at CB would allow us to build quickly from the back when needed and have the calm assurance that he brings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad the impaler Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I’d bring Cummings in as the back up striker. Scores goals in this league and would spook them before the semi👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bozi Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I can't say I am a huge fan of Halliday but he will 100% be one of the best midfielders in the Championship, if it doesn't work out its only 1 year. Will improve our midfield options, hopefully provide some dig and drive, can play left back....
