24 hours until the season kicks off and our central midfield options remain hugely limited.

 

Diomande and Barron have lots of potential but we simply must sign someone with proven experience to lead in that area. Sterling, Raskin and Dowell not that player.

 

Progress remains far too slow.

I personally think Damian Garcia and Joan Jordan were the lined up midfield signings but with both falling through, we're left scrambling.

My concern is that he will play Lawrence in there tomorrow.

I like the sound of this Propper guy. 

 

Listening to a Rangers pod interview of a Twente supporter today. 

 

He genuinely seemed bummed to be losing Propper.

 

That says a TON cause this cat is edging 31.

 

According to him Propper is a really effective leader and communicator on the pitch.

 

Check this, the dude is in book clubs. Real nerd this guy but in a good way.

 

He constructively directs on the pitch...not just yellin like an asshole. 

 

"You go here, you go there, watch this guy...blah blah."

 

'Quarterbacking' the defense.

 

Like a solid mike linebacker in American football. 

 

He can see the formations, get a read, direct team...BAM!

 

If this dude keeps his joints oiled and stays available we are gonna love him. 

 

I got a good feeling.

 

 

 

 

 

I jus' love your dudespeak.😊

No doubt Lawrence will start in his usual #10 tole IMO.

I'm sure we've had a few lined up. Not to have any completed 24 hours ahead of a visit to Tynecastle and a £5m CL qualifier next week is bordering on the negligent.

Agreed.  There's three or four potential starters that worry me.  

 

We've made some decent signings but still not enough transfer activity.

[Rousseau 10,017]

I must be in the minority. 

 

I would much rather see us persevere with Barron over signing someone like a 30-year-old Jordan.

 

I would like to see Rice get a lot of minutes, too.  

[Rousseau 10,017]

Moreover, if our targets don't arrive, for whatever reason, I don't think we should be scrambling about trying to find lesser targets. That's the sort of financial mismanagement that gets you into trouble.

Like I say, there's lots of potential there with him and Rice but I don't think we can rely on them to play 50-60 matches this season. 

 

We need someone to guide them both IMO.

Aye, I don't see Diamonde or Barron running big matches.  We need someone who can do that, if we want to win the league.

 

Lawrence simply isn't good enough, Dowell is never fit and the manager doesn't fancy Cantwell or Hagi.
