    Do you think the club will bring in any unattached players, seems to be a handful of useful players? :shamrock:

    Daniel Osvaldo
    Flamini
    Ishak Belfodil
    Felipe Santana
    Raul Meireles

    Was looking at these players earlier. Meireles stood out but having read up on time in Turkey, I'm not so sure. Seems to be a bit of a loose cannon and his wages were astronomical while playing there. We should be able to get any of these guys on a decent wage, even if it's only for a season. Sure they would all rather have a few grand a week than nothing.

    Is that belfodil who played for Lyon? Still reasonably young is he not? Would be a better option than ciftci from what I'm aware of.

    I think we were crying out for a defensive midfielder during that transfer window.

    Would never have went for him before, but if we could get Flamini in now, I'd be happy with that.

    I think we could get him, 32 years old probably got 2 years left in him at least, gets to pick up some winners medals and another chance to play some champions league football.

    Mon Celtic bring him in/home :icon_mrgreen:

    Yeah, there's quite a few decent players kicking about. Mathieu Flamini and Sulley Muntari are the two I think would do a good job of bringing some quality to our midfield, two guys who are very adept at a holding role where they break up play. Some other interesting names that are free agents:

    Stephane Sessegnon
    Juan Vargas
    Modibo Maiga
    Kevin Constant
    Mohamed Sissoko
    Antonio Di Natale (thought he would have retired)
    Alex (centre-back who played for Chelsea, PSG, AC Milan)
    Mervan Celik :fear:

    Also Zakaria Labyad was literally just released from Sporting Lisbon a few hours ago. He would be quality.

    Meireles and flamini would walk into our midfield, I'd have either of them in a heartbeat and can't see the downside if it's a short term deal, they both have tremendous experience in the game.

    I'd also take the boy Laybad in a heartbeat, he's full of talent although I'm not too sure what's happened to him recently.

    How so?

    Couple of decent players on that list. If we are smart, we will be looking into a couple.

    The likes of Alex, Flamini, Meireles.

    I thought Di Natale was absolute class, but at 38, probably way too old for a luxury like that and attack wise we're sorted. But what a player he was.

    Would really like to see Flamini come in but I very much doubt we'll be looking

    Only player from that list which would strengthen us instantly is Flamini. I think he's had a career of being criminally under rated even though he's played for a lot of good clubs.

    Problem with him is his biochemical company is absolutely flying, does he have the desire for football anymore?

    Think he'd instil a good chemistry in that midfield though.
