The Saintee Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 McCart is good but I prefer Kerr and Gordon. It was always going to happen after last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your attempts to sign Kerr, and now McCart, over the course of the Summer has been one of the most tinpot things going. The asking price is well within reach but Hibs seem to be fucking about for no apparent reason other than thinking they're incredibly clever if they somehow avoid paying it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraser Fyvie Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Hopefully we move along then if you’re still playing hardball. Not worth more than 300k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get £300k for him I'll be more than happy, considering hes out of contract next Summer and it sounds like hes already decided he'll be off regardless. Can we replace him well with a week left? Massive job. Was it the right decision holding onto him for the Euro games and running the risk of losing him late in the window? Probably. Just one of those things really. If the fee helps extend a deal elsewhere, or bring in a replacement for him, then you can't be too upset. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) Always difficult for clubs like Saints to replace a regular starter in the likes of Mccart. Even more difficult in his case as well as he's the left sided of the three. Assumed he'd be the one away after the articles last week indicated his staying was dependent on last night's result.

Got the four above, plus... Target Man - Aerially strong striker who is also weighted towards being a goal threat Limited Target Man - Aerially strong striker who does nothing else Advanced Forward - Player whos weighted towards attacking + possession actions rather than defensive Creative Goal Threat - Highly creative striker who is also a major goal threat Defensive - Massively weighted towards defensive actions Possession - Massively weighted towards possession actions Poacher - Massively weighted towards attacking actions In general you probably want to avoid a limited target man or defensive player, or at least you don't actively seek them out. A creative goal threat is something thats hard to find at our level really, you're looking at a Liam Boyce type player that falls under that profile. Lewis Vaughan does too but long deal + horrendous injury history means thats unlikely. Rest are either fairly small sample size wingers, or players who've already moved this Summer. Think thats probably the dream role though? Ideally we probably want a Target Man or Advanced Forward, I'd guess, but again, probably left it pretty late in the day to get anyone good enough permanently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PauloPerth Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Up towards £500,000, mostly up front for McCart, and I'd definitely take it if hes not for signing a new deal. I'd love it if he did re-sign, but if not then that's good money for a player in the final year of his contract that we shouldn't turn down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another loanee? There's Muller, who just needs game time, or even Callum Booth can step in one and play left centre back as cover if we need someone left sided. With time playing alongside Kerr and Gordon, our system will envelop and develop any new player. Our system made McCart, Hibs's will destroy him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zing. Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 We offered £250k and it’s still well short. As expected we can’t afford what St Johnstone want and we’ve moved on to a new target. f**k knows why we’ve waited this long, I can’t imagine the asking price was a fucking secret.

steviemay17 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) Interested to see how this turns out, I do also wonder if other teams might be very nervous about buying defenders who have shone in this specific system, but they might be left exposed in a more conventional back-four. Plus there's also the Saints curse where nobody actually leaves and does well Edited August 27, 2021 by steviemay17 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
