We will be spending on the players to make us stronger, I hope." Let’s get the dead wood out first and identify who could replace shanks possibly 3 in mind about 2 in midfield and 1 or 2 at the back say 6 players !

Batistuta87 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Just seen that Peter Christiansen suggested below has been snapped up by Viking FC in the Norwegian league. Looks a cracking player and would have been class if we'd found him first! Still like the look of and the idea of signing Schuler. He's on 5 goals and 2 assists in 22 games in 2.Bundesliga which isn't great but its a tough league and think he has a lot of attributes including being an absolute unit, that would serve him well in Scotland. Hogan would still be a good signing IMO and would give us some pace and experience up top. Posted February 20 Quite like the look of this guy. Peter Christiansen (SjonderjyskE) Currently 24 and playing in the Danish 2nd tier with 16 goals in 18 appearances. Has a decent record over his youth career too and got on the scoresheet a few times for the side relegated from the Danish top flight. His team look like no mugs and he is banging them in. Really think he could have some useful potential. Contract runs out at the end of the season, earning an estimated £800pw. Genuinely makes me think of Shankland, or a younger Boyce. Also like the look of Luca Schuler currently playing in 2.Bundesliga for Magdeburg. Can't find a decent video on him. Reminds me of a sort of Andy Carroll type player who is big and strong but still agile and quick. He's also 24, contract up at the end of the season, estimated earning £3k pw. Scott Hogan at Birmigham might be a shout too. He'll be earning a bit more than these two but just depends what offers he's got on the table at the end of the season. He's a bit older too at 31, but with his pace and agility will have a couple of years in him yet. Reminds me of Connor Washington if he could finish.

I don't think there's any harm in bringing up a player who was brilliant for us and completely got what it meant to play for the club. It's not like he's completely out of reach wage wise. Obviously we wouldn't be able to match some other clubs wage offers down south but it all depends how high his stock would be playing for a club at the bottom end of the Championship. The fact he loved his time here could help sway him. He'd be a fantastic signing and a pairing of him and Kent would be unbelievable.

Maybe not massive, but he's an improvement on Halliday and sadly, Haring of the last couple of years. He's 28 so probably in his prime, is a good Premiership standard player who gets forward and creates/scores, and available on a free and not big wages. Given we are hopefully going to be faced with a heavy schedule first half of the season, I'd say a decent signing to bulk up the squad a bit. That's not to say we don't also need a bit of quality in that position as well, particularly if Beni and Grant go.

Would like to see him maybe loaned out to the Championship and Denholm and Tait getting some chances. Tait in particular has been excellent. Denholm is a PHM and was the one who left hooked someone in the pre-season friendly too so I like his attitude 🤣 Will be great to get Dhanda in but I'd love an Aguiar / Pallardo type to sit a bit deeper and just act as a bit of a playmaker; pinging passes around but also doing some spade work.

Hof, Devlin, McKay, Spittal, Dhanda, Denholm, Tait, Pollock plus AN other with a bit of quality. If there is a truth in it, then I can see the thinking you say. I think we will take a couple more players more as a squad than before as the first half of the season will be punishing. So if we have a few players who know the league and done well who will step up, mixed with some younger players then it means our best players wont be playing every time. I do wonder if he is also a replacement for Boyce (I know Boyce has one more year on his contract but I do wonder when he will ever be fit again.) I would also say the comparison with Halliday and Haring is a moot one as they dont play in the same roles on the whole (Spittal has had some games at CM this season but he is mainly in an attacking role, with nearly all his goals and assists this season coming from that role.) I do also think there is logic in snapping out proven Premiership players from lower teams, where the wages should not be as much, then spend the rest on top level signings in key roles. I am more towards Spittal could be a wise signing, but will have to see more. I am most intrigued by how we are approaching this window with what players we are targeting, and if the rumours are true we have already signed up Dhanda and Spittal (and possibly Penrice as well) then I hope that shows a well crafted plan for the squad next season.

If the Spittal rumour is true (and there's a good chance it's pish), we do need to follow it with quality x 1 or 2. The point of Spittal is that he is zero cost, experienced in this league and will do us a turn. However we also need a player in the midfield that - along with Hof and Dhanda - has that bit of quality and can push us on. An Aguiar II would be great. Pollock out on loan to the Championship makes sense if we get the signings we want. He needs game time, he needs to prove his fitness, and he's not going to be a first pick next season although I think he has a lot of potential. Tait you clearly keep as he will contribute, and Denholm is another good squad player to have around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I always say we need to transition to quality over quantity when it comes to transfer windows. We're not there yet but we should be aiming to make signings in the summer of the quality that don't end up need a sticking plaster loan in January (unless through injury). The B team and one or two good freebies should help with squad numbers to supplement 2 or 3 quality signings. Tait, Denholm, Pollock, Neilson - B team products already there Dhanda, Spittal - Good freebies/low cost signings, maybe one more? 2 or 3 - Quality Released: Stewart, Haring, Halliday, Fraser Sell: Grant, Sibbick Sell if decent fee: Cochrane Out of Contract: Beni That's the summer window for me with fingers crossed on Shanks.

We should be targeting 2/3/4 players who improve our starting side, especially in midfield and attack. Rowles isn't someone the club see as a squad player though and I'd be very surprised if they believe we need to improve on him specifically. He is a key figure in proving they have a recruitment system in place that at some point can turn over a player or two and make significant profit, thus the contract they gave him. So when suitors come calling he will have 2+ seasons under contract. He won't be getting dropped any time soon as they want to make money out of him.

We're not Abroath where we expect to lose half the squad every other year and need a lower league signing plan. The club isn't aiming to make it's own players redundant, that just leads to disharmony and no sell on potential, the aim is to compliment existing high value players with players that can either become high value themselves, eg signing Sibbick (looking unlikely now he'll become high value), or a player who won't reach high value themselves but can support the sold on players replacements, eg Forrest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMFC01 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) Spittal would be a good fit for the team. I can envisage a rotation between Hof, Dhanda or both.

kingantti1874 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Given the clubs reluctance to announce Dhanda, I do get the feeling we may already have secured one or 2 more on pre contracts already.
