James Greene - December 4th, 2008 at 6:37 pm
THREE IN
1 Sylvinho (Barcelona) - Full Back or Wing Back
2 Semir Stilic (Lech Poznan) - Attacking Mid
3 Gareth Bale (Tottenham) - Left Back
THREE OUT (Celtic)
1 McDonald
2 McManus
3 Donati
Don’t get to watch most matches (live in Canada) but these are switches i would make not that they’re realistic.
Cathal - December 4th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
Very difficult to say who we are likely to bring in, but what we won’t do is sell McDonald (30 odd goals last season) and/or McManus (team captain)! Astonishing selection from James Greene. You’re right, they’re not realistic.
I do like the sound of Sylvinho and Stilic, but we couldn’t afford Bale - I’d be looking for a replacement for Mark Brown, we need a good stand-in for the Holy Goalie and Mark Brown ain’t it.
To leave, well, Massimo can go, but won’t; Naylor can go, and will. Killen when he’s fit should move on, No. 3 is very difficult we’re not a selling club, as we’re often told, so I’d be surprised if we sold three players.
Three In.
1. Sebastian Frey (Fiorentina goalkeeper) - not to get mixed up with the Swiss player.
2. Sylvinho &
3. Stilic
Three Out
No surprises here,
1. Mark Brown
2. Lee Naylor
3 Chris Killen.
James Greene - December 4th, 2008 at 7:06 pm
You’re very right lol, I just don’t see McDonald accomplishing what he did last season and now Sheridan blooming into a fine young player he (McDonald) might not be a vital part of the team. I just don’t like McManus (not that I know him personally) he just doesn’t excite me as a player. But I do agree we need a quality keeper to back up Boruc, Don’t know much about the american lad we signed this summer so hopefully we could remidate that problem in january.
Sean Lyons - December 4th, 2008 at 7:53 pm
james and cathal ,its a simple cut n paste, not a discussion, get a grip.
THREE IN
1 Ian Black
2 Lewis Stevenson
3 Polish Goalie at Dundee Utd
THREE OUT
1 Nakamura
2 McGready
3 Borat
Cathal - December 4th, 2008 at 8:34 pm
Sorry for the dialogue Sean … but your THREE OUT are going nowhere - post plausible suggestions.
Andrew Higgins - December 4th, 2008 at 9:14 pm
Agree that McManus is the weaklink in defence, but think you need to keep him in the squad at least untill the summer and help us to win 4iar.
But Loovens should partner heid for a run of games to see how they develop as a pairing before letting lumper (McManus) go.
Three in:
1. Oscar Wendts - FC Copenhagen Left Back
2. Bruno Aguiar - Hertz - Midfielder
3. Landon Donovan - La Galaxy - Attacker
my thinking is wendts - as we need a LB and looked good when we playe them some time ago.
Aguiar looks very good and the mini’s need the money
Donovan, tap into USA market when Naka Goes/
Three Out:
1. Bobo Balde
2. Chris Killen
3. Lee Naylor
Mike Oxbig - December 4th, 2008 at 9:34 pm
simple……….out….- 1,Bobo
- 2,Naylor
- 3,Donatti
players i would like to see come in………- 1,James Mcfadden
- 2,Steven Fletcher
- 3,Taye Taiwo
But we will probably get a few old english championship duffers instead.

are you falking insane - December 4th, 2008 at 10:15 pm
those suggesting McFadden, Landon Donavon and Steven Fletcher,….the name is in honour of you
AmbitionCSC
are you falking insane - December 4th, 2008 at 10:19 pm
Cathal, Seb Frey as back up?????????
…..read the name!!
….and you had the gall to question someone else’s selections?!?!
DerryDuck - December 4th, 2008 at 10:23 pm
THREE IN
1 Zaluska - Dundee United Keeper
2 Erlend Hanstveit- Left back from Brann
3 Craig Bellamy - Loan
THREE OUT
1 Mark Brown
2 Chris Killen
3 Darren O’Dea - Loan
Thats a bit more realistic!
are you falking insane - December 4th, 2008 at 10:27 pm
No, DerryDuck, that’s severely lacking in ambition. We’re out of europe because we sign much of a muchness players without adding quality in key positions. It’s time to invest in players with winning mentalities who can come in and improve the TEAM and not just add to the sqaud. This will help the development of those younger players who have had to take leadership roles before they are ready to do so. no more sqaud players, please!!
WGS - December 4th, 2008 at 10:33 pm
I’d settle for just hiring someone to keep Roy Keane away from Parkhead
hunskelper - December 4th, 2008 at 11:10 pm

2. Bruno Aguiar (MC/AMC @ Hearts)
3. Mehdi Taouil (MC @ Kilmarnock)
BEING GREEDY IN

5. ?ukasz Za?uska (not so important as Boruc wont be away till the summer and we have a new GK already… Domnic Cervi)
THREE OUT
1 B. Balde
2 C. Killen
3 P. McCourt
TBH, with the exception of Bellamy I think we can afford all of those players and again with the exception of Bellamy even thought they are all SPL players they are very good
Would like to see what you guys think about my selection.
celtrick - December 5th, 2008 at 1:18 am
out bobo, killen, mark brown
in sylvinho, fletcher, kingstone
Cunney - December 5th, 2008 at 1:25 am
you need to get to fuck with that selection, gallag, that’s what you need to do. Franco Fuckin’ Miranda!!!! Medhi Cunting Taouil!!! you must be a hun having a foxing giraffe mate.
,,Fucking Bruno Fucking Aguier? ya mad fucking crack head!!!
get back to playing champ manager ya crazy fool
Alonso - December 5th, 2008 at 2:55 am
Sebastien Frey…get a fucking grip, eh?!
Where you’d find the £15-20million to sign him is beyond me.
You’ve been far too much football manager mate.
Murray Mints - December 5th, 2008 at 10:35 am
IN
1. We need a left back so we would be getting a half decent left back in Erlend Hanstveit for free.
2. I think Craig Bellamy would be a tremendous coup to get a second time (remember how he ran the huns ragged at Ibrox and scored the best hattrick I’ve seen at Tannadice). Probably on loan or maybe even on the cheap at £3-4 million if West Ham are cutting their wage bill.
3. Semir Stilic appears to be highly rated for a youngster and could be another Petrov (ie top young Eastern European talent)
OUT
1. Mark Brown (provided we get Dominic Cervi or Lukasz Zaluska)
2. Bobo Balde (to free up his wages)
3. Chris Killen (waste of space)

1) Naylor (How did it all go so badly wrong?)

FAO HUNSKELPER
“am i a hun?” i thought we were not allowed to use that word, and do i sound like a “hun”? eh….
Naka is done, hes wanted to go home for months, WGS is keeping him against his will, its obvious, we dont need him to win league.
McGready is exactly that, greedy
and our keeper is a lazy troublemaker
take your green specs off and realise we are not man u, we are not milan, we cant sign frey, mcfadden, appiah, all these names, BE REALISTIC!!!!!!
Blacks a good scottish prospect, as is stevenson, and the keeper is polish, WGS likes him.
Do you think we could spend over 10m in january? get a life!
BE REALISTIC
