    The Scum reporting that we are planning to watch Ali McCann of St Johnstone at Hampden today. Must admit that I have been impressed most times I’ve watched him. Clever on the ball and able to get up and down the park.

    This rebuild is massive and yes I want us to bring in proven quality and experienced professionals to try bring back instant success. However we also need to build a squad and players like McCann could be a valuable addition to that.

    Doig, voted YPOTY, is another one that I would take from the Scottish market as well.

    Is Ali McCann not a hun? Plays for the North of Ireland and seen a bit about Steve Davis being his hero.

    I'm meaning would he actually * sign. Do you think lafferety or Davis would have signed for us?
    Would Niall Mcginn or James McLean sign for them?

    It crossed my mind but you have to trust that these guys are professionals.

    Tierney, a Celtic for hard, left us to further his career.

    I’m sure guys like McCann wouldn’t let allegiances stand in their way of bettering themselves.

    Fair enough but they are also human and that's the enviroment we are in. If they are bitter huns like Lafferty they wouldn't sign for us and I wouldn't want them to either.

    No 100%. Did a commentator no mention before that he was a relation of Fergus McCann? I could be wrong there..

    He's a decent player. Will have a look at him today..

    No sure how much he'd improve us but he's got good energy, been excellent all season and still young enough to improve..

    I've never seen him play mate. When I googled him it just came up about ours and the huns interest and about him wanting to emulate Steve Davis etc

    He's decent to even fair mate..

    Box to box. Good energy. Dig. Can finish here and there..

    Passing wise I'm no sure how good he is yet. Or if he'd improve us..

    Looked for that Fergus link and can't see it so probably pish that..

    Quite like the look of this player Simpy for Crotone..

    They're rock bottom of Serie A but he's shown up well. Just turned 29 so would give us some experience and likely in our price range as they're going down to Serie B..

    6'6. Good in the air. Good finisher. Can play on the shoulder well. Decent first touch and link up for a big guy and his pace looks ok..

    Would give us another option..

    Probably not seen enough of him to be certain but liked the look of the Hibs keeper Matt Macey every time I’ve seen him.

    According to @canalplus, Celtic is discussing with @clemgrenier at the end of their contract with Stade Rennais.

    30 year old now but would give us two or three good years , wouldnt be against this , would be a replacement for Christie i would think

    how reliable are canal+ ?

    He's been a consistent scorer in Serie B as well, and decent at Portuguese leagues. To get a return of 19 and 2 in 36 games in Serie A is impressive, I'd certainly say worth a look at, but it won't happen.

    He's also entering the final year of contract so bonus there
