Lad born in Derry who plays for ROI. He’ll be a target for our support after 5 minutes. Will have to play like Rudi to not get stick 

We've had loads of good Irish players through the years as long as he doesn't play the James McCLean card then everything will be hunky dory 👍

You don’t get it do you? We don’t need more older players, we need a core of younger players instead, that we can build a squad around and then sell on. 
 

Boyce is our best player, of course he is not too old 😂

 

25 isn't old 😂 I presume you don't want this McEneff boy in the door because of his age.

 

Every team needs a blend of youth and experience. We should be signing players to fit our style with specific attributes, age doesn't need to be one of them. If we were signing loads of guys in their early to mid 30s then perhaps not ideal but a guy in his mid to late 20s isn't old.

A bit different to what?  you said only players between 20 and 24 should be signed unless they are a stopgap, currently I would say best players are over 24 

Bit of a contrast in quality there mate😂

Really hard to get that age group now, show anything by age 20, labelled as the next big thing and well out of budget, unless they are shit, then you sign older players with better quality whose wages are beyond peak

McEneff apparently is great and is a good age. Ideally I would want players from 20-24 as the core but have no problems with 25,26,27,28 etc provided they are quality. But don’t want us signing loads of players ages 29 and onwards considering around squad is really ageing, especially the starting eleven.

McEneff's a number 10 as well. 

 

No signing anyone to protect the defence or improve it by the look of things.

 

Sounds like a box-to-box player, based on the replies to this tweet.

Agreed but there is still plenty of realistic talent that Hearts could snap-up within that age group.

I think it's evolving, Bongo. Gotta say the Irish lad looks decent and a winger  suggests using width of the pitch. The French forward needs those wingers to supply, as does Boyce. You are a fan of Walker. He sits behind the forwards. Irving passes and creates.

I don’t get all the chat about this guy. Is he resident in the UK since before Dec 31st? He’s German, has never played for a UK club and not an international. How can we sign him post-Brexit?

 

The Irish guy mentioned is different. People from Ireland have had a legal right to live and work here for the 100 odd years of the Republic’s existence and that isn’t changed by Brexit.

 

I think they consider more than international caps and will look at domestic appearances v games missed as well as the value they player will add to the new team among other things. Particuarly in Germany's case, only the very elite get into their national team, so maybe the rules will be slackened for players who aren't going to get any caps but who would boss it in Scotland, for example. Who knows. There's defintely a lot more rings to jump through than before.

 

[Byyy The Light]

Has there been any more chat about Campbell or was it just all a lot of rumour?  Kind of got my hopes up about him coming in.

Liam Lindsay going to Preston by the looks of things.

Never listen to player opinions on football forums. Many on here think Boyce is shit.

[upgotheheads]

I don't follow the League of Ireland but from what I've seen it looks like a good standard and would compare well with our Championship and most of the Premiership. Maybe the SPFL and the League of Ireland could get together and form  a joint competition, maybe a Gaelic Nations Cup for a start. I'm guessing it would attract a lot of sponsorship if the Arse Cheeks didn't get in there to spoil it.

[Rick Sanchez]

6ft 1...fast...direct...I can see a few championship defenders bricking it tbh
