From what I have seen of him with Canada he has struggled to make the step up to a higher standard but with regular minutes he has the ingredients to continue improving To be fair, he's not really been given much of a chance to show if he can make the step up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT - Just seen the post above Devante can come back here for 6 months, score a lot of goals and then bugger off. Rinse and repeat.

Gianfranco Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 I googled Decanter the other day to see if he’d signed for anyone. Apparently his current team is us. It would be nice but he’ll go to the championship in England I’d guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fault to him but just from looking at your squads it looks like there's a lot of folk ahead of him playing for pretty decent club teams. As a Belle and Sebastian fan I always enjoy it when Jonathan David pops up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a Belle and Sebastian fan I always enjoy it when Jonathan David pops up. David plays in behind the striker for Canada usually though. Cyle Larin is the out and out striker and he scored 7 in 42 for Mallorca last season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camer0n_mcd Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 It would've been nice to see him get a big send off at Fir Park but if we're getting bids of over 1.3 million you can't complain too much. He's been unplayable since Mika got recalled and whilst I still maintain that the criticism he got in the first half of the season was unfair it's very easy to see how far he's come as a player in such a short space of time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welldaft Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 If nothing else and this deal goes through I am glad we have stuck to our guns and knocked back some low(er) ball offers. I have just read that Celtic Korean striker Oh has joined Gent for £4.5m. Yes they did pay £2.5m for him apparently, so it is not a direct comparison. All that said he only bit part played in around 20 matches and scored a fairly measly 5 goals in the process. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, he'll get another team in League One no bother and we'll be miles away in his pecking order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handsome_Devil Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 (edited) You need to assume we've already been spending the Bair fee on those already signed up but with SK after 2-3 more, do we also assume one is a striker, one is a 10 and one is...maybe a cheap and/or speedy rwb if JK injured for a while? We seem absolutely stocked at CB and most of midfield and a swapping someone for Bair keeps us at four forwards. I'm struggling to remember a pre-season where the squad seemed as settled and complete in mid-July as it is now.

And if we take Ketts at his word, the fee is likely to cover 2 seasons of our legendary shortfall in one go. With the money we’ve got in the bank right now and whatever we get for Lennon eventually, we are easily looking at 5 years of financial stability and a chance to move away from “year to year budgeting”…. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, this is another reason why Kettlewell's choice to volunteer that information is as interesting. I mean, I get that he likes to talk but it goes some way to undermining Executive Board's framing of why they're apparently desperate to sell the club out to some random for buttons. It already seemed wilfully disingenuous on their part to begin with without Ketts piping up in front of the press to say..."Actually, no it's more than the figure you've seen quoted".

Unfair of me but I never considered that as a possibility, I assumed he was just blowing his own trumpet...but very funny, intentional or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
