    Would take Gomis and Buaben to replace Claros and KT if were unable to keep them.

    New RM Buaben Gomis Harris

    Would be a decent MF depending who we sign for RM.


    Harris on the right and Craig on the left?

    Always like Arfield as a player however we are stowed with midfield players as it is.
    Not really, we could in theory be without Claros, Deegan, Thomson, Wotherspoon, Scott and Done leaving us with Cairney, Robertson, Taiwo, Harris, Stevenson and Stanton.

    Would that be the same Dundee United team that Scott Robertson excelled in? Not saying they're both terrible as well now, but I'd hope we take a long hard look before signing anyone who 'used to be good' again.
    Robertson is this season's Claros from last season.

    He'll be important for us next year.

    Why would anyone choose to work again with a clueless bully?
    Posted a while back when we were supposed to be looking at Arfield whilst he was at Falkirk that he stated that he wouldn't work with Yogi ever again - The words "bully" were used in reference to Yogi's management style, heard this from a friend (who's close to one of Arfield's family).

    Just wondering, how come you were watching Huddersfield? I'm genuinely interested in lower league football because of the fans I've met and become friends with in the past.

    A few years ago I watched Huddersfield versus Wycombe on Sky Sports which was 6-0 Huddersfield. They were simply brilliant and could ave had 10, they played fantastic football. After that was speaking on twitter to Huddersfield fans and then after that had a small soft spot for them. Watched a few more League 1 games over the next few years and found it really interesting, including Huddersfield again thumping Wycombe 6-0 this time away from home! Rhodes was immense.

    I think once he gets a good pre season we will start seeing the best of Robertson.

    It probably depends whose willing to take the wages Hibs can offer.

    Gomis would be good if we lose Claros if he can replicate his form with Utd.

    Gomis, bring it on he'd play out his liquid skin.

    Saw Clayton at Brighton this year & he was class. Airfield came on as sub but didn't have much opportunity to impress.

    I think it will be a midfield 4 of Harris Claros Robertson Craig will be our choice next season, pretty sure Claros will stay.

    Paul Watson from Livingston a player we were linked with a couple of seasons ago has turned down a new deal good strong centre half streets ahead of Hanlon imo also his side kick Craig Barr also away from Livi both would improve our defence

    Quick question for everyone wanting Gomis and Bauben in our team. What about Tom Taiwo? He's been really good recently. IF we managed to keep Taiwo, Claros and KT next season I'd be more than happy and would focus on the defence and the strikers for next season. In fact, when you look at the squad without Claros and KT we'd still have a load of midfielders and NO strikers IF Leigh goes.

    Not as good as Clayton Donaldson!

    He was pure class for Brentford in the play-off semi-final on Monday.

    Totally agree with that. I think Taiwo has been an excellent signing and doesn't get the credit his performances deserve. I'd love Claros and Thomson to stay but I wouldn't be unhappy if Taiwo was one of our starting midfielders next season.

    This. TT is an excellent player IMHO. Gets stuck in, harries the opposition and never stops. Personally believe he should start the Final

    Taiwo's the type of guy that would play in top six SPL sides, barring the obvious, and do really well. And a player we should probably learn to appreciate and persevere with rather than demand he must be able to do everything.

    Knowing Hibs his first thought after signing will be "now I'll get myself arrested"

    Richey I think this guy does a lot of unseen work and will be a very important player come the final.

    Your right he can't do everything but what he does do he does it very well. If we do go 3 in the middle for the final then PF has an easy job (posted before)

    Taiwo. Claros. Thompson

    Wanyama missing is a big plus so those 3 need to be in their game and get us on the front foot (sure they will)

    Robertson is this season's Claros from last season.

    He'll be important for us next year.
    Let's hope. It hurt how badly he played in the SF given all the hype towards having him in the side. Let's hope he puts that behind him and starts to push for a starting place next season. I remain optimistic that he will be a good player for us.

    Spot on. For me, the midfield is the least of my concerns going into next season. Even if Claros and Thomson go as I would expect, we'd still be left with a decent set of options: Taiwo, Harris, Craig, Robertson, Cairney, Stevenson. The first 3 in particular seem like a really promising combination.

    If Claros stays I would be delighted. Thomson would be a great addition aswell but I must admitt that I think him and Claros are not necessarily the best pairing in the middle so I dont think we really need Taiwo, Claros and Thomson.

    I still think we need a bit more creativity and goal threat from midfield but it appears Harris is beginning to offer this, Craig should do the same and I hope Robertson and Cairney can recapture their form.

    For me, even if by some miracle Leigh stays we will still need to get a couple more forwards and the defence has looked shakey all season.

    So was Duffy.... If Pat got him up for a couple of weeks training to make an assessment then fair enough but I wouldn't be for giving a contract to someone who in recent times we know nothing about except Huddersfield don't want him.

    Dundee Utd were great when they had Gomis and Bauben sitting and Conway and Swanson on the wings. Both of them good players.
    Seem to remember a few years back that Utd team tearing us a new one at ER .... we were chasing shadows all night and were lucky to get away with less of a battering than we should have.

    I dont know what they are like now, but if Gomis & Bauben are anywhere near the players they were then I would take them in a heartbeat.

    Agree with what folk are saying about Taiwo ... he was outstanding in the last game at ER and should have been MOM. If he can play like that every week he will be first midfield pick no matter who we have in the squad.
