Scott Allan

[Bayern Bru]

Two-year deal. Having medical today.

Left Dundee Utd to sign for WBA, but ended up on loan at Birmingham, Portsmouth, MK Dons.

Midfielder, 22.

[Dobosz83]

Based on performances at Utd a while back he'd be a good addition and also still a youngster. You know for sure or is this speculation?

:cb

[lord bunberry]

That could potentially be a very good signing.

Nice one.

Let's get this one over the line Hibs. This would certainly put credit to the quality over quantity statements made previously! :wink:

Would be a good signing.

We'll see what happens later today then.

What type of midfielder is he? Not a lot of goals or appearances? What are your recollections of him at Dundee Utd?

[SMAXXA]

This could be the signing of the summer as Scott is an excellent player and has be tracked by a number of teams whilst a WB and since he left. I'm shocked he has chosen hibs to be honest and if it's the case then what a capture.

I haven't set eyes on him for ages but heard he'd put on a few pounds.. That said, he is a class act. This is more like it Hibs! :top marks

[Derek Dougan]

I won't believe this until BMD comes on and tells us he was just speaking to the neighbour of his sister who confirmed it.

[Dobosz83]

What type of midfielder is he? Not a lot of goals or appearances? What are your recollections of him at Dundee Utd?

He didn't get a massive amount of game time a Utd. I'm sure it was a handful of appearances before the hype started and was off down south. I can't remember who I seen him play against but he was central, rarely gave the ball away and carried it forward looking to create.

I'm also sure The Rangers were looking at him recently. Some of their 'supporters' where excited by the prospect of signing him.

[Spike Mandela]

http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/rangers-target-scott-allen-verge-3906214

Hmm..described as playmaker.......promising:aok:

[IWasThere2016]

He has played against us briefly in a 3-0 reverse, under CC, at Tannadeechee. Beat two and it took a fingertips save to stop it going in the postage stamp.

[Hibbyradge]

Good point. :agree:

I'm also not going to be impressed until someone tells us what he was like when they used him on Championship Manager or the ilk.

[col02]

Definitely the type of signing to gee up enthusiasm! Please get this one over the line Hibs.

[easty]

Good point. :agree:

He scored against me on my Fifa 14 career mode. A fine strike from outside the box leaving my keeper (Hugo Lloris) with no chance. Any player who is capable of hitting a ball like that (albeit in a computer game) is good enough for me.

[Hibbyradge]

I don't understand all the excitement.

According to Wiki (yes, I know) he's only played 49 times as a senior pro and he's never settled anywhere.

I'd be interested to learn why folk think this would be such a good piece of business.

Genuine question.

Welcome to Hibs Scott, however I didn't see the signing of another midfield player as being a priority.

There are other areas of the team which need strengthened urgently (imo) but for now I'm willing to trust the judgement of the new Managerial team.

Because he was at WBA he was always out of Hibs budget on FM, got him in FM12 but that was into my 10th year as Hibs and he was a wee bit older.

He's a very good player but, to date, has had a bit of a attitude problem. Whether that's a 'Billy Big Boots' thing or he's just a bit moody, I don't know.

I'd see him signing for Hibs, given the other interest, as evidence that he might be maturing/lightening up a bit though.

[easty]

Are we actually getting him or is this just a rumour in the paper?

Just googled him a minute ago and found this from a couple of months back - http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/rangers-target-scott-allan-ive-3586069

If Rangers do want him, then surely that's where he'll be going.

This is an absolute topper, in weeks gone by people have moaned because Hearts have signed Gomis and Buaben, two MIDFIELDERS, now it seems we're signing a midfielder, and a quality one at that, people are moaning that we don't need a midfielder.

Our fans really are brilliant. I must admit I couldn't think of anything worse than trying to please our supporters, the club can never win.

More to the point I think he'd be a fantastic signing, and I'd much rather we waited, like we're doing now and brought in the right players than rushed signings to appease the bedwetters.

In Stubbs we trust.

A tough job for sure. In short ear plugs, and tunnel vision - forget the fans just sign good footballers!!!

[brog]

If we get this signing confirmed it's potentially the Scottish signing of the season. I'm also impressed that nobody saw this coming. I'm sure AS & staff are very wary of being gazumped over signings & hopefully this hasn't leaked too soon.

[Smartie]

Has he not been pretty good for the Scotland U-21s in the past too? I remember someone raving about him playing for them.

Would be magnificent if true, he's exactly what we lack/need. Would really send out a signal and back up the quality over quantity mantra, and I'd be delighted mainly because he's a signing of a type of player we've not had for a while, not just getting him in because he's a player of reputation who has become available.

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Nice one!

[Aldo]

I don't care bout his attitude as long as he does the business on the park as part of a team.

Folk saying Bauben and Gomis signings are good this tops that IMHO.

Hopefully this is true and it gets signed up sharpish.

[CallumLaidlaw]

Surprised at some on here. This would be an excellent signing. A young talent, who although hasn't had a lot of game time down south, will be a better player for the experience. I'm sure there's Scottish premiership teams that would have been delighted with the signings of Gray, Farid, and Allan

[TheFamous1875]

We do need a playmaker, have done for years.

If he was a Deegan or a Taiwo I'd share the greviance. Thankfully, our new manager does at seem to be as single-minded as Fenlon did.

I think signing a creative midfielder is vital. It's so important to how the team plays. We haven't had decent playmaker since Boozy, or Liam Miller at a push (granted we haven't used the midfield since then!). You're right though that other areas definitely need strengthened too.

Totally agree with that first part. Derek Riordan, Garry O'Connor and Leigh Griffiths weren't exactly role models off the pitch but on the pitch, they did the business for Hibs. Couldn't give a crap what they get up to outside of football but when playing, they did the damage.

Thing is he will hopefully have a point to prove after his big money moved didn't work out. Still a young guy but exactly the type of quality signing needed.

Agree with that in that as long as their personal life doesn't affect their football life and that their fitness then by all means do what you want. The three mentioned above failed to do that in my opinion but made up for it on the pitch (just imagine how much better they would be though if their off-field didn't affect their on-field!)

Can't really remember him when he played for the Arabs, 45 appearances in the last 4 seasons isn't very impressive, has anyone seen him play recently rather than 4 years ago when he was at Utd and showed some promise then, looks like he hasn't developed since leaving Scotland, lets hope he can get his career back on track with Hibs if we sign him.

That would have been a well made point..... were it not for the fact that only one person said he would prefer other areas to be strengthened first.

We have been crying out for creativity in centre midfield since Zemamma left. Hopefully Allan can fit the bill.

Good to see Stubbs has identified an issue the club have had for 5 years.

El Alagui leading the line with Cummings also an option. Liking it.

If we were to get this boy or a playmaker of his potential quality in, I would be tempted to say that we'd have the best midfield in the league. The players we already have are good in my opinion, and to have a creative player in with them would only benefit their own games further.

Robertson and Stanton box-to-box, OTJ or Stevenson holding and Craig attacking with Allan or someone of the same mould pulling the strings and creating chances we could dominate the centre of the park in matches, and do it in more styles than one with so many options at our disposal.

Allan is a hugely talented player (he looked unbelievable when he came through at United), but hes got one of the worst attitudes Ive ever seen from a footballer. Huge gamble from the club but if Stubbs can keep him in line then he could be a real coup.

[Brooster]

Great player. Seen him play for Scotland 21s against Belgium at east end park a couple of years ago and he was our best player. Miles ahed of OTJ in every department. ..signing Allan will hopefully edge him nearer the trap door.

[carnoustiehibee]

Good things come to those who wait

Would be a great signing if it goes through.also good to see nobody on here knew anything about it until now, the way transfers should be done instead of jumping out neighbours sisters bins

[PeterboroHibee]

There are various articles that suggest managers have found him difficult to work with. I remember Houston was in the papers after he had only played a few games for the first team at United saying that Allan was looking to be one of the highest players at the club, and which inevitably led to his move to WBA.

Not 1 upfront! And Craig shouldn't be sitting deep.

I will pass on judgement as I have not seen him play either live or on video. I must assume that AS knows his onions.

It's a 433 in attack. I never get why people don't understand that.

I'd love us to move to a 343 it would blow Sally's mind and he wouldn't have a clue how to play against it.

[J-C]

Not 1 upfront! And Craig shouldn't be sitting deep.

1 up top is fine as long as the 3 players behind are all attack minded and will supply the striker.


midfield of
Stanton DLP Robertson box2box

Harris winger Allan AM Craig IF/AM

Alagui

My only problem is trying to fit in Stanton/Allen/Harris etc, maybe swap Stanton and Craig

Play on the front foot rather than chasing the game!

New song?

He runs to defend, he runs to attack, Scott Allan makes Prince Buaben look sh**e

Would be a good signing imo. Plus iy wpuld annoy the hun hordes so I'd enjoy that as well.

The attitude problem stuff only excites me. I like a player who can perform where it matters most - in George Street.

No offence intended mate, but I reckon that the "We are Hibs, we are good" song suggestion from a couple of years back is the only one I have ever heard that is worse than this.

[Bostonhibby]

Don't know anything about the guy, but if we really do want him I am hoping this is not his agent playing poker with Der Hun who might be messing about over a deal? hopefully wont want to take the risk of joining the new boys, unless it's the usual story of always wanting to play for them :blah:?

Fingers crossed.

Probably Hallam Hope from Everton, been mentioned a few times, be a loan deal.

Would be a great signing, I seen him on loan at Birmingham on sky and thot he was class, best player on the pitch that day, will be a great signing if he knuckles down.

Watched him at Pompey in his first stint there and he was outstanding in the Championship, best player on the park for most games. I would be very, very pleased if we could sign him. :not worth

[TheFamous1875]

So, when you say playmaker, is he deep-lying or behind the striker/s?

[Unseen work]

This would a unbeleivable signing, terrific player!

It's that good when I seen it I thought "no chance"

Swear he was doing pre season with derby or some championship a couple of weeks ago

[Stuarty27]

Deeper midfielder, never gives the ball away, will pick it up from the centre halfs and start from the back.

Only criticism is doesn't score enough goals

Will have a cigar out in division 1

[Michael]

I'm not bring negative... Just curious. Looking at his Wikipedia entry... Why is this signing so exciting? Doesnt seem to have a much better record than our other signings so far?

[Unseen work]

I wouldn't class him as either a attacking or a defending midfielder. Too me he's a all round midfielder who technically very good on the ball and aggressive. The attitude comments is what I like about him, he knows he's really good... He won't hide. We've missed that sort of swagger in centre mid

[Aldo]

I'm not bring negative... Just curious. Looking at his Wikipedia entry... Why is this signing so exciting? Doesnt seem to have a much better record than our other signings so far?

Think the word is 'potential'.

If he performs anything like he did before his move down south then he will turn out to be a very very good signing.

[Gordy M]

Mate, you should never judge a footballer by Wiki. Allan was the 'next big thing' at Dundee Utd ala Mckay Steven and Russell, and im sure there was rumours of Liverpool wanting him? He left to join WBA and i remember because a lot of folk thought he should stay and develop, turns out they were right! But a V V good player.

[Mikey09]

Reminds me of a young Barry Ferguson.... But goes forward more.

[Del Boy]

He was rated a better prospect than Stuart Armstrong when they both broke through a couple of years ago. Their attitudes are pretty much polar opposites though and that's why Allan has not developed as many thought he would.

Thing is although never got game time at WBA was very well thought of at his loan spells at Portsmouth etc

[Geo_1875]

Has he signed yet?

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

If there is a striker having a medical, I can only assume it's Hallam Hope?

[Gordy M]

Found this before he went to WBA....hope it copies ok.....from Daily Mail

Ally McCoist faces an even tougher task to lure Scott Allan to Rangers after Liverpool (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/teampages/liverpool.html) last night entered the race to sign the Dundee United starlet.

Sportsmail can reveal that Kenny Dalglish hopes to fend off competition from the Ibrox side, Celtic and West Brom for the Scotland Under-21 cap.

The Baggies have already had a £400,000 bid accepted by the Tannadice club, but Allan's future remains up in the air.

McCoist has spoken of his desire to land the midfielder, urging him to put Scottish silverware ahead of English gold.

With the Anfield giants now in the running, however, both he and Celtic counterpart Neil Lennon appear to be facing a losing battle in persuading the 20-year-old he would be best served by staying in Scotland.

Allan has played only six first-team games for United, yet is rated as the best talent the club has produced in a generation.




With his contract expiring in the summer, he could sit tight until then and leave on a Bosman, with United receiving training compensation from his next club. If he moves to an English outfit, United's cut would be determined by a fixed formula.

Were he to stay in Scotland, the fee could be decided by an SPL transfer tribunal and the figure worked out in a more arbitrary fashion.

The Tayside club believe the written bid from West Brom for £400,000 would weigh heavily in their favour if the fee was to go to a tribunal.




However, the likelihood remains that Allan will leave next month once he has spoken to all interested parties.

[Lee Marvin]

Anyone think this may just be a nonsense rumour? My feeling is it's not, but a lot seem to be taking only the daily records word as gospel.

Strangely, the fact none of the 'ITK' brigade is claiming he has signed is pleasing me.

Please be true.

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

2 year deal.

The rumours in the papers do tend to be wrong, but the fact theyve stated he was having a medical makes it sound more believable. Usually its just Hibs are interested in a player or have held discussions.

[MrRobot]

4231 played properly isn't one up front, it's 4.

Last season when we tried this formation it wasn't played properly.

TBH I would like to see a 3-4-1-2 formation tried with 2 full backs. I know it 4231 can work and be effective, but I'd like to see us try with 3 CB's and 2 WB's.

[Hibeesmad]

Fantastic signing however, will be one of the best players in the division. I have a feeling Hibs are looking to announce 2 or 3 together if the rumours of a striker and goalkeeper close to joining are true

[StarMan10]

Hibs like an announcement around half five, going by the previous two signings..

[ekhibee]

I will pass on judgement as I have not seen him play either live or on video. I must assume that AS knows his onions.

Good player. Great 1st goal by Plymouth as well though.

That formation worked a treat for Man Utd against LA Galaxy this morning. Then again need the correct players to play this formation. Your WB's have to be both good at defending and attacking.

That sounds about right:agree:.... Id still say it got right up their noses.....

[hibsbollah]

So for those who have actually seen him play...

Is he a Scott Brown type, an Ivan Sproule type, a Kevin Thomson, Rocastle in front of the back four type or a Mikey Stewart type? (Or is he the apocryphal 'Matty Jack' enforcer type?)

Remember when a midfielder was just a midfielder? :greengrin

[greenlex]

This is an absolute topper, in weeks gone by people have moaned because Hearts have signed Gomis and Buaben, two MIDFIELDERS, now it seems we're signing a midfielder, and a quality one at that, people are moaning that we don't need a midfielder.

Our fans really are brilliant. I must admit I couldn't think of anything worse than trying to please our supporters, the club can never win.

More to the point I think he'd be a fantastic signing, and I'd much rather we waited, like we're doing now and brought in the right players than rushed signings to appease the bedwetters.

In Stubbs we trust.Granted I've only read half the tread but I don't see anyone moaning that we have signed a midfielder. I saw Golden bear saying the priority in his opinion was elsewhere and was moaning we havent signed a player for there. FWIW there will be many deals on the go and hopefully they will be in areas where we really are weak. Its just that you cant really effect when they will conclude and in what order. Welcome to Hibs Scott.

Don't think you are comparing apples with apples here. Past posters you speak have posted in good faith and aye sometimes it turned out to be tripe but that is the nature of rumours. At least it was something they heard down the pub, at work or whatever.

BMD is a daily, near constant update of other .net posters hearings. It's plagiarism at it best.

Welcome Scott. Get your head down, work hard, play with confidence, creativity and passion. Prove to yourself that you have what it takes. Make your family proud, make us proud and most of all make yourself proud. You have a clean slate here. We are desperate for you to fulfil your potential.

You're attitude and desire in the next 10 months will shape the rest of your career and in fact your life.

It's up to you.

Well done Hibs. Very well done indeed.

They needed to pull something out the bag to back up their talk so far, and they have.

[Jack]

Are we actually getting him or is this just a rumour in the paper?

Just googled him a minute ago and found this from a couple of months back - http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/rangers-target-scott-allan-ive-3586069

If Rangers do want him, then surely that's where he'll be going.

Now we've got him I hope the same happens to The full fats as happened to Rangers just after we signed Snr Claros.

[basehibby]

http://youtu.be/Ou3anH3RLNE

Good player. Great 1st goal by Plymouth as well though.

Excellent! Going by the comments on this thread Stubbs has recruited a great talent for our midfield, and the link above would appear to back that up in spades. (required viewing btw...)

We have been crying out for more creative talent in our midfield for seasons and I am delighted that AS seems to have picked up on this very quickly and acted on it decisively. Any talk about attitude etc is something that doesn't worry me - it seems a rarity when any player with above average natural talent does NOT come with some sort of baggage - call it gallousness or a maverick streak - it seems to come with the package so bring it on!

Well done Stubbs and all the rest of the back room team - and a massive welcome to Scott Allan - welcome to the Hibees :thumbsup:

Seems like the type of signing the club needs to be making. Hope the lad can realise his full potential at HFC.

Still need a few more signings like this though. Credit where it's due to all concerned at the club for getting this done.

[Franck Stanton]

Seems to me that everyone is happy, if not excited with this signing - similar to us signing Sauzee last time we were in this division. Now I am not for one moment saying Scott is as good as Franck was , merely stating that the signing appears universally accepted.

No its not selective, I read the thread to the point it was getting saturated with what another poster knows etc etc etc ..I then asked folk to get back on topic ...do you seriously have an issue with that ?

No, not at all. All for it. Seriously.
