Frankie 8,230 Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 If Lafferty and Velicka both leave, then Barazite will be probably be the replacement for them I'd imagine. We still need a left-sided player though IMO. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,230 Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Has Benalouane signed for Juve yet? Not that I'm aware of. Like Goncalves I think he's more of a left-sided centre-half so can't see either of them signing unless a Bougherra or Webster leaves. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 If they are a left sided CB would they not be more likely to take Weir's place given he is the left sided CB at present ? We could do with another CB. Still want a left sided midfielder - that said, with the form of Weiss & Naismith, and if we actually had them switch sides frequently, we may not need one. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the long term yes, but what I meant was I doubt we'll be signing more defenders unless someone leaves. Weir won't be leaving so that only leaves Bougherra/Webster in the short term; neither of whom appear likely to be going anywhere (touch wood). Second part of your post is probably fair enough and if you add Lafferty and Fleck to the mix, that's a decent selection of players but none of them are probably genuine left-midfielders which is what we've needed for years now. Wylde is probably the only natural one we have and I'm not sure Smith rates him enough. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefanovitch 0 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I still reckon Michael Tonge would be available from Stoke if we asked nicely. He's a left sided midfield player but I'm not sure if he'd command a starting spot every week. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,230 Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Can't say I know much about him mate so I'll trust your judgement... I think if there is to be any movement inwards it will be after 6pm when the English teams have finalised their 25 man squads. Should be a few interesting propositions available then. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree unless it's someone we've been watching for a while or outside England. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metlika 0 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 From jamiejmore on Twitter: "Alan Hutton hasn't flown out to Lithuania with the Scotland squad as he is due to sign back for Rangers on loan from Spurs."Not heard too much from Scotland yet - reckon a few big ones will break later. Possibly. Doubtful imo, from the BBC transfer window live text. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/8954459.stm 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
