There's someone on FF claiming a deal is all but agreed with Hibs but being held up by us inserting a clause saying he can't play against us this season. Bizarre if true. It's going to be a long transfer window, especially with the Skov Olsen link not going away. It's got me excited when there is probably nothing in it.

I still think Ibrox being empty helps against the small teams but would be a lost advantage in bigger games. And is a major lost advantage for our opponents away from home. Some of our players don’t cope well with the sighs, moans, groans and worse when they are struggling to break down a low block and making mistakes.

Disappointing for him after an excellent start, but if it fastracks Helander's road back to full fitness then that would be a good thing.

Interesting that Football Italia have reported this. Previously it was only a very questionable Twitter source that had reported it. His name came up in January 2019 I think, before he got his move to Bologna. Surprised it hasn’t worked out, he looks a real talent from his YouTube reel. His signing, even on loan, would be a real coup.

Celtic have signed Albian Ajeti. It is interesting because he is very similar to Itten. A Swiss striker, only a few months between them in age, both ex Basel and with similar records in that league. One thing that is different is that Ajeti seems to have got his done better in the early years of his carrer whilst Itten has really come onto a game in the past season or two. Ajeti looks like a decent player, but have they really signed a £5m striker to sit on the bench next to a £3.5m striker? Not to mention Griffiths. With any luck Edouard will leave now.

Loans have been ruled out by Gerrard. It's permanent or nothing. However if we sell to Hibs we better put a huge sell on clause in his contract because he is only 22 and could go on to make them a bit of money. I really felt Docherty was good enough to be a squad player so I am a bit disappointed it looks like he is going. I've said for a long time that McCrorie isn't good enough though.
-
I don’t agree. He can play in the 10 because he is good enough to adapt but it’s not his natural position. He is excellent on the right side of the midfield three, providing creativity from a deeper position. His ball winning and ball retention are excellent too and we get more out of him there. That’s where the second goal game from yesterday, Aribo cleverly finding Hagi from that position.
-
I would include Aribo so it is 8 players to 3 spots. I agree the problem is quality and not quantity. I think ideally you would have two Aribo type players on either side of Jack or Kamara for most SPFL games. If we could bring in one player with that kind of creativity in that position I would feel far more confident that we won't eventually succomb to the same issues against the low block again this season.

Rangers have entered a formal agreement with Reach Ltd

Could it be that there is an element of appeasement in it too? -

The amount of grown men who can't bring themselves to say the word "Rangers" in this country is embarrassing. -

The first test of the mentality of the team this season. -

And they will hopefully have a crowded fixture list later in the season with at least two postponed games to squeeze in. You have to wonder how it will affect Bolignoli too. -

If detailed protocols weren't documented and agreed for scenarios like this before the season started then the SFA have demonstrated that they are incompetent on quite a staggering level. -

Humza threatening to pause the season now. Sounds like a better idea than making Aberdeen and Celtic suffer the consequences. At the very least, postpone their games for the next fortnight and then they can deal with the backlog. -

Bizarre stuff. I just hope our players know better. -

That was Aribo. BLM will be on your case for that one. It was an excellent ball, Aribo is going to be huge this season. He’s our most important player IMO. -

So they weren’t under huge pressure at that stage but would be if they went 4 points behind in August? Regardless, the point is that they have been under a lot of pressure from us much further on in the season and they passed the test and we failed. We will need to overcome those mental challenges this season. After all, it’s no coincidence we slipped up immediately after going top every single time. -

Well, they were under huge pressure after December 31st last year and they came through it and we crumbled. We need to show we can match their mental strength because there's no hiding that it's an area we've failed in.
