Summer 2019 transfer thread

[jeffers]

I'd prefer McNulty, think his all round game is better but if we can't sort out a deal for him I'd be happy to see Cummings back. Of course we'd have to be playing two up front if we do sign him otherwise I don't see any point.

Was it not you that broke the news about him going down south in the first place? Hopefully a reliable source this time as well.

Would be delighted with JC coming back. Not sure how he’d cope with not being a first choice right enough.

This I agree with, Cummings doesn't suit playing on his own. But with 2 up front he has that McCoist like ability to be in the right place at the right time.

And there we have it Cummings is a Championship striker cause you said so 🙄

All about opinions. I have mine. You have yours. That’s how it works

[Last Minute]

I've only been told we are interested and his availability is being looked into. I myself would luv to see Jason back.

[flash]

No brainer for me. Great around the dressing room and loves a goal in the big games.

The big games being the ones we struggled to pick up points in last year. Get him in.

Is this the new scatter gun approach,sign loads of players and hope we stumble across a system that works. I thought we've been playing 1 up top, where's all the strikers going to fit in?

In games where we want to play two up front? We aren’t going to religiously stick to a formation all season. We didn’t have options last season. I’d much rather we did this season.

We need another midfielder and wide man 1st

Please be true

[Cabbage-Patch]

See Notts Forrest have told that Gboly Arribi he is free to leave as well. Remember him being decent for Motherwell last season.

Reckon he could do a job for us out wide

Not sure I follow, it's pretty much a given we are trying to get McNulty. My post said if we can't I'd like Cummings back + I've not heard PH say he will only play one up front every game.

Definitely. Very quick although his end product isn’t the best, although that’s the case with the majority of wingers at our level.

[MacGruber]

When Cummings was on the move from us there was a poster DelBoy or something similar that had a bit of a jump on things....

[we are hibs]

Don't know if I want Cummings back. He lost me a wee bit when he tried that handball at tannadice especially a year after the penalty attempt and I thought it was the right time for both to move on at the end of that season. How did he do at Luton?

Yep, sums things up perfectly for me.

[MWHIBBIES]

Thing is, he's an unprofessional, daft doughnut at times who I'd want to get his head sorted and focus if he was coming back. But 100% when we were losing at home to Hearts last year he was the one I wanted to be in green and white, he would've scored that night.

If he comes back it has to be on a 3+ year deal with him here to stay and play.

[SHODAN]

Jason Cummings hasn't lost a game against Hearts since 2014.

If not McNulty, then JC, still makes 4 strikers, we've played 1 up in all friendlies and at the end of last season. We need 3 max which gives us the option of 2 up top now and then.

He'd probably be higher up the pecking (or Hecking) order than if he went to Hearts.

If we want 2 up top then we have Shaw, Kamberi and our £300k odd new striker to chose from.

If we can get a decent deal for Jase then fine but fans need to understand he'll want a good wage. The question is should we make him one of our highest paid players if that means him, Kamberi and Doidge all fighting for one spot in the majority of games? Or should we allow Shaw more game time and use the extra in wages for another body in midfield or out wide?

JC was arguably the one who turned our SC journey at Tinycastle around, only a few strikers or footballers for that matter, would have even attempted the header he stuck in the net. Cannot believe the amount of guys I spoke to on that who believed it was not what he meant "he only tried to get a flick on into the box". The wee man meant that and as soon as he got his head to it I was up, he meant to send it netbound!!

Could have choked him at Hampden when he tried the chip on the pen, but have to admit he is special.

If we can get him bring him home.

We'll have injuries & suspensions some time during the season. It's only 2 years ago we had to bring in Brian McLean as an emergency defender. Shaw, probably & JC definitely, can't play up front on their own & you never know, PH may decide 2 up front works better. I think PH will want 4 strikers regardless.

Still had the balls to step up and take the winning penalty in the shootout. I think that pretty much summed him up. Get him home.

Had that argument with a Jambo mate of mine - oh he never meant that, couldn’t do it again

He did the exact same thing for Scotland in an under 21s game

He knew exactly what he was doing

Come on home Jason

I think i’ll let the management and recruitment teams decide how many players we require in each position.
