    Add that to the fact that they can't afford him

    Mcginn is a good wee player he would instantly improve their midfield but struggle to get into ours ...only way i could see us being in for him if armstrong is sold he struggles to get into ours too who's a better player than mcginn ..with ..brown,ntcham rogic/mcgregor taking up the main positions.

    You've made your feelings clear in this thread, but really? You would actively want him to go there?

    Could maybe even sell kouassi and bitton fringe players and make room for him.

    Honestly I couldn’t give a *, it’ll make no difference to us whatsoever. It’d be hilarious watching the meltdown in the media though watching their golden boy go the Huns after trying for years to get him a move to Celtic.

    Would be more worried if the Huns signed McGeouch.

    There will be no media meltdown if he goes to the huns, the only meltdown will be in this thread. The media would love the hottest prospect (outside of us) to join Gerrard's 'Revolution' and knockback the Champions..

    McGeough is the type of player that would be signed to play in a poor mans Celtic team, which is what they are already - A poor team set up to play like us.

    McGinn is the type of player that can succeed in a team that is based around working and running into the ground, without the funds to match us, that is the only way they can beat us. They cant buy the quality we can, tactics have to change. McGinn, at this level, would clearly be a great signing surrounded by better players.

    I'm firmly in the 'Not sure if he can improve us camp', but I want him nowhere near Sevco.

    Couldn’t disagree more to be honest.

    They need players with composure. They don’t have anyone who can control the midfield or dictate the tempo. McGinn is nowhere near good enough on the ball. His lack of composure is frightening.

    Honestly would rather they signed McGinn than the likes of McGeouch Mulumbu or even Kamara.

    They will not beat us, by being us. We are too far ahead, with too much resources, especially if we secure UCL football again this year.

    I think we will see them set up to be hard to beat, McGinn would suit that. He's the type of player that kind of side loves to have.

    Don't think he will go there at all, just surprised you rate him that little.

    If you put young Mcginn into a winning squad of 7inarow treble winners he could flourish under Brendan's tutelage the same way Armstrong and mcGregor have, put him into the huns losing team and a massive rebuild they have he'll probably get bogged down by mediocrity like nothing players Jack ,Holt,Arfield Dorrans and Docherty around him.

    don't see the fuss with Mulumbu tbh who also is almost 32.

    Another shameful attempt by Dignity FC to unsettle a player just days before he and his team are due to play them. They did it with Kenny McLean earlier this season and someone else too, might have been the Jones lad at Killie. Fat Jabba commands and the media obey. Have to laugh at all these midfielders they're supposed to be signing though, it's gonna make it a bit congested in the center of the field. McGinn and Arfield not to mention Candeias, Holt, Docherty, Jack, Dorrans(he's Premier league class timmy!), Halliday, Windass, Pena and possibly even Jordan Rossiter if he turns out to actually exist. Maybe this is gonna be Hunny G's radical new approach though, a 0-10-0 formation.

    No chance he’s signing for them. Good Tim.

    I’d rather we signed that Glen Kamara though.

    What that * from Dundee? We are a CL team ffs signing Dundee cast off once in a blue moon to compliment the squad is fine - 3 in 6 months would be too much!

    The boy was a stand out against us a couple of times this season. Arsenal youth player as well. Just because he plays for Dundee doesn’t make him *. Better player than McGinn for me.

    Hibs detest the huns from board to fan level, whereas we've gave them their best manager and players in years for free.
    We could probably take McGinn for 2-3 mill plus Allan whereas they'd charge them 5m+ :56:

    tbh I hope Hibs get a bidding war from a couple teams down south, get as much money as they can for the boy because their midfield will be decimated next season and they might struggle to get top 6. They've pushed us harder in one year under Lennon than Aberdeen or the Huns have in almost a decade. I'd like to see Hibs push on and become solid 2nd place finishers behind us.

    I would give them Allan, Christie and loan them Kouassi, plus like 2 million. Certainly a good deal for them and for us
