Will be a bit of a turnover again I'd imagine. Potentially leaving in summer. 1. Michael Smith. 2. Connor Smith. 3. Euan Henderson. 4. GMS. 5. Peter Haring. 6. Scott McGill. Loans ending james Hill, Garang Kuol and Stephen Humphrys. Keep Michael Smith and Connor Smith if we can, Connor's looked good enough for more chances. Lose 4 to 6, even though GMS will bite us by scoring a winner for Dundee United or somebody one day. Try to keep all the loanees, although we won't. Humphrys is possible, he likes the club and we like him. Hill would be a great signing, but it would mean spending. Kuol is one for the future at Newcastle, they'll be trying to get him into a Championship club next. Tie up who we can from the above, announce Paterson and we'll be doing very well. I wonder what the future holds for Kio, Forrest and Grant? They all have something to offer even if they haven't always clicked, but maybe we have even better players in our sights. We could say the same for Gino, but his attitude and effort has been incredible lately, I hope he stays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liam11 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Obviously crucial we retain as much of the squad as possible more than anything. If anyone does leave, Savage will ensure it’s for good money. I do wonder about the future though as another season of European/third place prize money (not secured yet I would add) would put us well beyond all other non OF clubs. Will it perhaps see us spending more in fees/wages for a couple players than we’ve seen previously? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackOfTheNet Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Dependent on what European stage we get (we need to secure group stage, and hopefully we can do so like last year without having to depend on a playoff either way) then all I would like in the summer is improvement to the point we can be more competitive. I’m not saying enough to get through to Knock-outs etc, but at least a level above than where we are now. And if we have outgoings, to make sure we don’t lack the strength in depth like we found ourselves at the end of last summer’s window.

Mind you, I hope he goes nowhere for a long time. Agree with all of this. Souttar does well at Leicester, a bigger club will come. Decent move in that if he finds his level there, that's far from bad for a career, but has the chance to step up like maybe that huddy Maguire did (I mean, I'd rather have Kye... £80m please!) Also £5m probably is right and we'd be happy. BUUUUUUUT I also do think that's a very SPFL valuation on a guy who genuinely stood out at the WC and hasn't put a foot wrong all season. If he finishes the season strongly again, maybe a couple more good performances for Aus, maybe does well for us in Europe (so we're now talking next Jan or summer 24) I think £5M is actualy English clubs taking the piss and I do wonder if the club is maybe feeling pretty cock sure these days and will tell English suitors this...? Never know until £5m is on the table I suppose!!!!! Andy McKinlay might faint and Joe run off with the briefcase! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drylaw Hearts Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 GK (depending on CG) RWB x 2 (Probably CP plus a good prospect) CH (Hill on another years loan would be ok) Midfield needs work for me. We don’t have a proper big shithouse defensive midfielder or a real attacking threat from the middle if the park either. A winger for either side of the park. Striker x2 (we need a regular goalscorer other than Shankland) I’d keep Micheal Smith around if we have the budget. Can cover RM, CH and CM if required. Heading for the exit….. Atkinson Haring Grant Kio GMS Forrest We have the money to get upgrades on these guys. Ginnelly is the only one I’m still on the fence about.

Thank god we are fan owned and not fan ran... Problem? Depending on CG’s recovery we will need a new GK. Atkinson doesn’t look the part imo and Smith is going to be a bit part player next season so we need a replacement and a back-up. If Hill doesn’t stay we need a replacement. Maximum 4 out and 4 in so far. We should definitely explore replacing Haring, Kio and Grant with better if we can. Haring will go anyway and neither Kio or Grant are doing it for me. That’s 7 for 7. GMS is out of contract and Forrest is a bit meh. I’d rather have 2 new wingers. We have 2 strikers on loan and neither are guaranteed to be here next season. Thats 9 for 9. I have no problems with us exploring the opportunity to improve as many positions as possible each summer. No point in standing still. We need to improve to increase the gap to those below us. We are only 2 wins better off than Hibs and Aberdeen at this stage….we need better players all over the pitch imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamboinglasgow Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Listening to Joe Savage on Tuesday night on Sportsound, it does look like that when it comes to our transfer strategy that Summer is when our main business is done while January is about utilising the loan market as well as signing players from the Far East. So it least gives some direction to what we will be doing in the summer. Provided we get in the same position as last summer (guaranteed group stage Europa Conference League football) then it becomes an interesting mix of signings. I do think Gino, M. Smith and Snodgrass will sign new contracts, I think Humphrys will be permanent and I am optimistic we can retain Kuol for another season. So it means we dont have to make as many signings so could spend more on better quality recruits. Add in Halkett, Boyce and Beni being fully fit again.

Better standard of player to train with, and then hopefully comes back until the January. He should then go back down there, and into their under 23s and around the 1st team to progress.
