Super_Ally 0 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Never heard of Smithies? Anyone familiar with him? Do we need to be bringing a teenage keeper? How are Vaiculis and Grant Adam rated? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,682 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Never heard of him either. We don't need another goalkeeper IMO. McArthur is a decent player but I'm not sure he's of the level required. We need a Thomson type player though - a guy that can cover ground, make tackles and allow the other midfielders to dictate play. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, especially since such players seldom get through a season unscathed. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that not what Edu is meant to be ?? wud prefer we spent money our 2 decent wingers that can take on a player and beat him, beasley is sooo frustating get the ball run at the player and then turn around and play it back arrrgh lol and two attacking fullbacks. i think we got too many similar CM's. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maineflyer 0 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Hopefully, by the summer, Murray isn't still wasting Ibrox oxygen because that's the only way we'll see the back of sad old Walter. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,682 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Is that not what Edu is meant to be ?? Indeed he is. I agree he should be given his chance and I'd like to see us buy a right winger with any money we may generate in the summer. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexscottislegend 2,412 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Never heard of Smithies? Anyone familiar with him? Do we need to be bringing a teenage keeper? How are Vaiculis and Grant Adam rated? Smithies is apparently highly rated, but more promising than ours at Murray Park? Who knows? Only thing I can think is that they're planning to have a top keeper in place if they sell McGregor for a good fee. If so, hats off to our management team for forward planning. Nah, doesn't sound like them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
