    If we sign him it's purely for the home grown quota. He would be coming in as 4th choice I think.

    I think he's better than Jenz from what I've seen, would be cheaper and counts as a homegrown as well.

    Jury's out on Kobayashi, never seen that lad play. He's more of a development project anyway.

    Welsh needs game time and a loan would do him good.

    I'd 100% take Porteous. We essentially need 5 HG players who are either first or second choice in their position. With an additional 3 squad fillers.

    For me we currently only have 4, Ralston, Taylor, McGregor and Turnbull, who are good enough as 1st/2nd choice. Still think Welsh will come good but the lad needs game time, honestly think an 18 month loan to a Championship side would do wonders for him.

    So ideally, get Turnbull's contract situation sorted, sign Porteous, get Welsh a good loan and we'd be looking a lot more healthy in that department. Then try and improve on the additional 3 HG where only Forrest actually contributes anything.

    I'm not sure Porteous is more than a squad player. I'd rather have him than Mccarthy as a homegrown but that isn't setting the bar high. I suppose it would provide space in the squad for a foreign midfielder.
    I think at this point Jamesy is still good enough to be second choice. Mikey could be too, seems to have had an okay time abroad.

    He's 23, played very well on the international stage and Ange and the team would get him right mentally. Don't mind a player who's got a nasty side just as long as he knows how to keep a lid on it in high-pressure situations. I would take Porteous

    Can't see it myself.
    Porteous hates the Huns.
    I would take Porteous, he's streets ahead of Welsh
    And having that nasty streak in him, he would fit in well alongside Johnston.

    Porteous is not dreadful ffs. He’s a decent CB here in Scotland and that’s why he’ll be moving up a level. Good enough for us? Probably not but there’s no shame in that.
