  1. Source ? If so then DM should already have been looking for a replacement and should have one lined up !

     

    David Tanner on SSN, usually in the know for all things Scottish Football, but it's unconfirmed.

  2. Steven Pressley's Hearts career is over the club have announced following the team's 4-1 victory over Motherwell.

     

    Club captain Pressley - who had been at Tynecastle since 1998 - had spoken of 'unrest' inside the dressing room at an October media conference.

     

    "I have enjoyed my time at Tynecastle enormously and will be sad to leave," Pressley told the Hearts website.

     

    "Particularly, I would like to thank the fans for their support during my time at the club."

  3. Im not underestimating Latapy but he is 38 doesn't have the same legs as Clement. Clement should easily win that battle

     

    A battle isn't just about legs.

     

    Especially in conditions like that yesterday, I'd take experience over a young French lad any day of the week.

  4. Pressley is over-rated as a player.

     

    The fact he's held in such high regard at Tynecastle is more due to his leadership qualities than what he can bring to a football match.. BUT..

     

    He's EXACTLY what we need in that sense.

     

    It's just a crying shame that to find a player like that, we're needing to look at a player in the twilight of his career, rather than having some towering centre half banging on the manager's door asking to be promoted from the youth side.

  5. Don't underestimate Latapy.

     

    He's one of the best in our league at 'pulling the strings' in midfield, and as young as Clement is.. there's no substitute for experience.

     

    And 9 times out of 10, in conditions like that yesterday, experience will triumph over youth.

  6. Nacho Novo has sought to clarify reports he is keen to make a swift return to his native Spain.

     

    On Tuesday the 27-year-old striker told a Spanish radio station he had played in Scotland for five years and wanted to join a club in his homeland.

     

    But the former Raith and Dundee striker said: "I am trying to win a new contract with Rangers not leave them.

     

    "In fact, it would be my dream to play here for the rest of my career. I love this club."

     

    Novo added: "I did speak with Radio Marca, but I talk to them quite a bit.

     

    "They asked me if I wanted to return to Spain one day and I said that I did because, like any person, I would like to go back to my homeland one day - but not at the end of this season," he told Rangers' official website.

     

    Novo first arrived in Scotland in 2001 and signed for Raith Rovers from Huesca, and scored 20 goals in his first season before moving to Dundee for £100,000.

  7. Cannavarro is getting it on the old unwritten rule of "Major trophy winning captain".

     

    And does it matter if Henry made the shortlist? He dosen't deserve to win it anyway. Not a great season last year, hasn't exactly started this one on fire and a very mediocre World Cup.

     

    To be totally honest, not one person has stood out as THE player this year.

     

    Ronaldinho has played in fits and starts, but nothing close to the past 2 years when he's won it.
