    To pretend they're still relevant.

    * media *.

    We don't operate on any level with Newco, if we are genuinely in for a player don't even mention them. We blow them out the water everywhere, unless the player is a knuckle dragger himself and even then we'll still win I.e. Allan.

    I think Hourihane would give us the perfect balance in midfield, alongside Broony and Armstrong, and be another option to Rogic.

    He is very hard working and industrious, and puts in some amount of recovery and intercepting tackles in the DM role.He would be within our price range too.

    Hope there is something in this, still. Seems like a good allround midfielder who can grab you goals, while also being a mad *.

    Apologies for the random bump...I'm bored.

    They are hilariously bitter. Makes for great comedy.

    One of the best performers in the Championship this season and a consistent performer for them since he has been there. Never misses a game.

    Big reason why they are in the top 10. He'd be an improvement over Biton and McGregor while also adding competition to Armstrong's position, arguably on his level.

    Wouldn't cost a fortune either.

    Rather we look further afield. I'm sure better quality is available elsewhere for a similar price...

    K.Wilson, Matthews, Ledley, Commons, Hooper and Dembele? about £3.5million spent, the ones that have left sold for about £11million and Dembele sitting still worth £20million+ we've done well signing players from there.

    Probably wont sell him as he's their best player and they have a wee chance of promotion so i'd guess it would be a bosman.

    His contract is up in the summer.

    Minimal fee.

    Maybe worth a punt then. Does he have the quality to make the step up to CL ?

    Its impossible to really say but look at Armstrong for example. He is now well on his way.

    Throughout our history we have very rarely bought ready made CL players. We make them.
