TheScarf Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 A McTominay and Caicedo swap deal is what I've seen. There's no way he'll more than half his wages to sign for Celtic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Don't understand the Brighton link at all but they've earned the trust of pretty much everyone to get their transfers right. I wonder if that plays into players' thinking too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 According to reports, he’s agreed to sign for West Ham, which should be a good move for him. On the other hand, Harry Maguire is also making the same move. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 A very good move for him. Hopefully he can establish himself as a first pick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen it reported that West Ham have had one bid rejected because it didn't meet the valuation of Man Utd and the suggestion that Roma are also interested. Not sure who I'd rather see him go to: Roma would be somewhat interesting, but West Ham maybe a better career move. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Italian game would help him improve technically aswell as his defensive positioning. More Scots going abroad can only be a good thing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 It's not the 1990s any more. I'm not sure Serie A is actually better technically than England nor does it have the same defensive mindset it used to have. The benefit for McTominay would be the fact it is much cooler and that he gets to play under Mourinho again, but playing for West Ham would have him playing against stronger opposition on the whole. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard agree. While it’s been nice to see a few of our players end up in the Italian/Belgian/German leagues as an alternative playing in the English championship or for one of the old firm, I think a big reason behind our fortuitous results in recent years is that the bulk of our squad are regularly starting games in the English Premier League which is the best league in the world by quite a distance in terms of strength in depth (your Real Madrids and Bayern Munichs are Barcelonas can compete with Man City, but Getafe, Lecce and Augsburg would get smashed by Crystal Palace) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be a bit worried for Bayern if that is indeed how they see him playing, because if we’ve learned anything from his Scotland career (and I’m fairly sure we haven’t) it’s that he is better further forward (as an 8 rather than a 6). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoP Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Looks like Scotty boy has got himself into a bit of a shite situation Frozen out by Ten Haag today, can’t move anywhere till January now. Dont blame him apparently turning down Fulham, he’s better than that, but if he doesn’t get game time the next few months it’s not to our benefit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2426255 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 I think there are obvious parallels between Tierney and McTominay which is why I've placed this in the McTominay thread. To show faith in someone when they are going through a bad time is more important than when things are going well. People remember that kind of thing. Quote He showed faith in me all through the season and he played me every single game. I wasn’t playing for Arsenal and there might have been some people questioning why I would play for Scotland, but Steve was brilliant. That’s why I texted him straightaway. Some people here did mention the Spain game to me, maybe that played a part in Real Sociedad wanting me, I don’t know. I got an awful lot of confidence from playing for Scotland. Last season was difficult, but in the first half of it I was still playing in the cups and the Europa League. It was only later, with the games week by week, that I started to lose some match fitness. I’d then report for Scotland duty and was playing a bit of catch up, but Steve and the Scotland staff were just amazing for me. Scotland definitely helped me and that’s why I felt it important to thank Steve for his faith. Steve said it was a great move, great for me and great for Scotland if I got more minutes. He was delighted for me.

MarkoRaj Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Could McTominay end up in Saudi? Their window still open. Staying would be an absolute disaster and a whole year wasted potentially 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadasdillinger Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 (edited) That's some absolutely incredible company for Hojlund, Lukaku, Amdouni, Kane, Ronaldo, Mbappe and Saka to be in with.
