    The thing for me as well is that he was very very recently playing for a top academy at Fulham, so by all accounts this isn't just some guy who's playing there because he's failed elsewhere or because he has never been good enough to make it.

    It's a young footballer who's chosen to go down a division to play and develop. That's an important point, Fulham have a good history of producing players.

    Good read mate- big moussa and wee paddy both came from Fulham and that didn’t work out to bad though paddy at Man City, fact that he’s only 21 , most top players started a few division down, got to start somewhere

    Hope you're still talking about Tomlin, otherwise @St.Matt is going to have a bone to pick with you

    I think if this happens then mccarthy or bitton may be away, mccarthy needs game time and although bittons been good recently i think they make take a decent offer for him, just think we might be one cm too many

    Bitton is worth a lot more to us playing than what I'd imagine we would get for him. McCarthy has long contract and can't get in the team. Be shocked if either moved this season

    I agree with the above but was he injured that he wasn’t in the squad on Monday and McCarthy was? We know We are stuck won’t McCarthy could it be we are selling Bitton as there is interest in him?

    This might sound daft and against the current Japanese tide but this is the potential signing I've been most excited about having read into him and also watched a bit.

    I'm more excited about Hatate having now seen him live but this guy seems to tick every box and for the price quoted I really hope we pull this off.

    Rave reviews everywhere.

    I don't think he will be up against either in the squad.

    McGregor, Ideguchi, Bitton and McCarthy will be in contention for the DM role whereas McGregor, Rogic, Hatate, Turnbull and O'Riley will battle for the 2 AM roles.

    Glad we got one over the championship here after the McGree bullshit that happened time for Celtic to put a tweet out saying how some players prefer trophies over mid table second tier mediocrity

    Hope he's better than that video shows. Guessing that was when he was 18/19 though.
