    :smiley-laughing002: Not a single vote for big Baldé.

    Doubt we'll see any of them in the Hoops again.

    It's not an ability issue with Pukki, he just wasn't enjoying being here. I doubt he ever will, some players just don't fit a club.

    I would love to be proved wrong but I can't see it.

    Think of the wages that would be lost to have pukki just sit on the bench, people.

    Why not sign another player, and give someone else a chance?

    Think about it.

    Youre right but if he was played in a position he likes then we might get somewhere with his attitude to stay here. Never an out out striker or a replacement for hooper.

    I think he deserves a clean slate in a different position preferably johansens cover for me.

    Any video they put up on YouTube the squad seem to have great chemistry with each other and are just like a bunch of friends , this is more than likely because of ronny who looks like a great man manager , so he could change pukkis attitude towards staying if Ronny wants to keep him.

    I'd give Pukki another chance personally. I understand if we don't, though.

    Balde just isn't a footballer.

    I thought Pukki was going to really kick on this season but evidently not. He seems a right boring * as well, not enough passion for me and I don't think fans would ever take to him.

    Balde is just *. Whoever looked at him and said £1.5m player and answer to our problems upfront needs their heed checked.

    5 mins a week wasn't enough for Balde to show us what he can do, he's been * elsewhere but I reckon we can still make him our target man for when we need a goal.

    Don't know if you are being sarcastic or not Eddie but come on mate he's rotten. Needs to be shifted.

    I think it was worth a try. If he could have learned some basic football skills, we'd have got a fortune for him with his physical attributes. Sadly he was just as * at the end of the season as at the start.

    Worth a try but not at £1.5m.

    He is the kind of player you take a gamble on for a price at around £400k, 500 max.

    Physically he wasn't even that much of a beast. When you compare him to guys like Van Dijk and Benteke who are both the same height they would only have to nudge Balde to knock him over due to his build and clumsyness. Wanyama as well.

    I'm not picky.
    I'd cut our losses with the both of them and get rid. IF we were to keep any of them I'd rather it be Pukki, but like I say I'd rather Deila just moved them on.
