    I'd take him he is a more thoughtful playet now, at 31 has a few years still in him.

    He would improve us.

    It would be overloaded a bit. Stokes, Johansen, Forrest, Duffy, Maloney and Commons all for 3 positions.

    I'd love him back. He's matured so much as a player.

    His ability isn't in doubt. If he's fit, go for it. If the fre's reasonable, it's a no-brainer.

    Is he on good terms with the club?

    Commons is off and Forrest'll be out again in a couple of weeks.

    He'll be 32 by the end of the window. Commons is 32 in August.

    Doubt Maloney will get a better contract than Commons. Doubt both will be here.

    Course he would.

    It seems pretty evident that Deila doesn't fancy Commons because he doesn't suit the style of play Ronny wants to achieve with this squad. If he says that Maloney "looks like a Celtic player" then it appears that he thinks Maloney would suit that style of play.

    I don't think Deila has much say with regards to contracts. Commos not gettig what he wants because he is too old, Maloney is eve older and less reliable with injuries.

    Would be a pretty deadly trio behind Guidetti, domestically anyway. Plenty of goals there if not plenty of pace.

    Although I'm not as daft on Commons as others, I'd like him to stay and linking him with Maloney could be a stroke of genius now I think about it.

    Just googled his age. Same as Commons. Strange that we may pay a fee for him and i assume offer him a deal over 1 year which we are not prepared to do with Kris. Why not offer Kris a new 2 year deal with option for a 3rd?

    For the record i would love to keep Commons and still bring the wee man in, I think that they would suit the formation ideally. Although if Ronny wants high tempo pressing these guys are getting on a bit. Hard to beat a bit of quality and experience though than headless chicken style running with no end product!

    I guess the main reason commons is only getting a short deal on offer is once ronny gets a few more players in commons in out the team for good and they maybe don't want him on a long contract at his age if they have no use for him and poor sale options for a guy that age.
    But i would take Maloney back for sure,when not under repair he is a great wee player.

    Do we know has he had the same problems staying fit while down south,if not it would tend to indicate we have been doing something wrong with the player in the past.

    Surely this is a bit of a boot in the balls for commons! Arguably one of our best players not to mention former player of the year and he's struggling to get a deal done with age being a major contributing factor! So signing (Shaun who is older and definitely more injury prone) for a considerable fee and wages is totally contradictory.

    Forrest can't lift his * off the toilet seat without pulling something...cannot and shouldn't be relied on.
