Watched Herbie Kane play in a game last season against my English side Chorley in the FA Cup. Guy was absolute class and scored twice, was head and shoulders above the rest of the players on show. (Yes, I know it was only Doncaster and Chorley 😂)Quote:

All the midfield players that we are being linked with (Jamie Devitt and Herbie Kane) seem to be attacking types.
Maybe we are just going for all out attack this season. 4 at the back and 5 attacking midfielders plus a lone striker. Interesting.
Can't we just sign talented footballers?Quote:

Motherwell except bid from Celtic for David Turnbull

3m+ add ons is being reported. Think motherwell are selling themselves short. He's a cracking talent and hopefully this might start a bidding war.Quote:

Probably learning the lesson of that debacle here.Quote:

3m plus add ons sounds like a good deal for well given he has only played for one season and only has a couple of u21 caps.Quote:

Disagree.Quote:

If he doesn’t do well he’ll still get a move to the English Championship, if he does well then on top of all of the above he’ll get a move to the English Premiership.
No, Turnbull just signed a new contract at Motherwell until 2021Quote:

You honestly think hibs would reject 3 million for Porteous?Quote:

If Hibs got offered 3m for Porteous I think they’d take that, as it stands now.Quote:

Porteous has a long way to go before anyone is paying money for him. Dives in way to often. Needs to learn to stay on his feet.

For the most part we all think highly of Porteous but it's interesting that I read that a couple of German clubs are after Liam Morrison at Celtic - if that is true then does it mean we are over estimating Porteous a little bit?Quote:

Ryan's stats are better than Scott McKenna at Aberdeen 'like-for like' on games played (goals scored, conceded, pens, clean sheets) and they value him at £8 million. He does however need to work on his discipline, agreed.Quote:
