    I wasn't that fussed about him to be honest but now having seen that I'm kinda hoping we haven't missed out on anything here, he's a good option to have and something a bit different.
    I'm more disappointed about this than most seem to be. I thought we were just starting to see the best of him.

    Findlay and McCart are average CB’s, halketts never fit and can mind who else they have
    Findlay is a much better defender than McCart, aggressive, good leader at Killie. He’s also appears to be slowing down after injuries though.

    This Dutch journalist seems to be indicating that Vente to Heerenveen is done:

    If true, I'm sad we're losing a player of his quality. I just hope we receive a good amount (hopefully all up front) with a sell on and use that money to secure resigning Bushiri or bringing Triantis in permanently.

    It's one thing to break our singing record, but if we want to compete at a higher level, we'd have to be looking at our wages too.

    It is a strange one because he really was struggling come the end of his Hibs career. I thought he started really well and looked a real quality player. However, after his brilliant last season in Holland if he wasn't a Hibs player currently there would be absolutely no chance of us signing him.

    Decent enough player , just not robust enough or suited to the pace of the Scottish game. Never worked out and leaves with good wishes for his future career

    Kent is their best centre half however was out for a while last season injured. Findlay is a decent aggressive centre half which McInnes likes. Not the best on the ball but passable. Threat in opposition box

    The Vente situation is win-win for us really. He wants away, he barely played for us last season so we won't miss him, a decent fee, and a decent wage off the books.

    Findlay signs for Hearts. Already signed 6 players this season! Annoyingly a very solid signing.
    If we signed him would he get a game?

    if the recently quoted fee of 1m euros is correct then it really isn’t much of a win-win. Barely recouping the fee we paid for him and yet he has become a proven goal scorer in the top Dutch league. Everyone here was suggesting a fee of at least £2-3m for him a few months ago and that would certainly be more realistic.

    We might be able to use any fee we get for him to put towards Rocky and Triantis but even if we did get them back that would only see us in the same place that we were at the end of last season. In fact in a weaker place if Hoilett didn’t return.

    He might if Rocky doesn’t sign. He is a decent player but he isn’t a Rocky or. Porto.

    1 year left on contract and buyers know he doesn’t want to come back so no chance of extension to contract.

    He's also been heavily linked with leaving along with Penrice apparently.

    Agree, though still think it’s not a great fee considering the level that he’s proved himself at. All in all he hasn’t been a great deal for us considering his wages and how he performed for us. Ok it’s good to at least get his original fee back but think that many had hoped that he would go for quite a lot more. Still think there’s hope that the 1m fee quoted is wrong as only a few days ago there was a quoted fee of 2m.

    I suppose that’s really the point I’m making in if we signed him as a replacement for Rocky I think a lot of us would be disappointed in he wouldn’t be a signing that would improve us , not saying he’s a bad signing but certainly one I wouldn’t be overly excited about either . I’m sure some would have concerns about him missing over 30 games last season in all .

    According to Twitter

    Bojan Miovski has reportedly been told he can leave Girona this summer

    Not within our budget but what a signing he would be.

    I'd imagine he will get a crack at another foreign team.

    They can sign as many players from Kilmarnock as they like. The more the merrier. Killie were rotten last season.

  20. #4279
    Killie sign George Stanger from Ayr Utd

    Their 5th summer signing

  21. #4280
    Been on the Sunderland forum again ( on it a lot ) 🤢 and the general opinion from their fans is they should hang onto Triantis and have a look at him . In saying that they are getting linked with midfielders Isaac Price and along with a host of other clubs one called Habib Diarra …

    Isn’t that their 2nd or 3rd signing from the Championship?

    I think the problem with Vente was Montgomery . I reckon if he'd been playing upfront for us last season he'd have scored a **** load of goals

    I think he’s tremendous but very similar to McGrath who I expect to start every game when fit.

    I’d love Hoilett to stay but if he doesn’t, I think we’ve got a really good replacement for him.
    We need a squad though and as much as Hoilett will not be a regular starter he’d be a valuable team member.
    I still hold out plenty hope that Hoilett and Rocky stay - until we see the bye bye thanks for the memories Instagram post then there’s every chance we are still in talks.

    Considering how poor and anonymous he was for us, I’ll be doing cartwheels to recoup what we paid (just like with the Melkersen deal).

    The excuses made for him by many on here is mind boggling, he never looked that interested after his good start and missed absolute sitters under SDG. Could barely last longer than sixty minutes to boot.

    The thing about him not getting the right quality balls was bull**** as Myziane didn’t have a problem and reeks of throwing team mates under the bus. Him being expected to drop deep and put a bit of effort in wasn’t playing him out of position - look at Gayle and where he starts in the move for his Tynie goal.

    Also worth remembering that the same place we were at the end of last season was comfortably the second best team in Scotland and close to matching Celtic. If €1m gets us back to the position we were then then it’s a truly fantastic deal.

    I would say currently yes. If Rocky resigned then no.

    I still think he's a good bit off prem standard. He's a great player but isn't having the impact McGinn had on games and even he had some championship experience first.
