Transfer rumour thread 19/20

Robson is a far better footballer (and prospect) than Booth. I've always said there was a player there if he stopped being a f@nny. Neilson seems to have knocked that out of him. Not the finished article yet but I think he can be a big player for us the next 3 or 4 years. I think people forget he's still only 21.

disagree

A couple of weeks ago, I was reading stuff like Sam Nicholson and Chris Cadden were done deals.! They might well be but never been mentioned since.

Gotta love the close season ��

Players etc are all still on holiday mate, be a week or so and they'll all be back and then the signings should start

[shedka]

massively disagree, Booth is solid and performs better at LB than Robson, Robson is 'so so' at left mid but certainly not a position he should command

Dont get the whole JR love in thing.

No love, just see him as clearly the better player and still only 21 with more experience, matured in attitude and plenty room for improvement with his prime years still to come

Booth is bog standard, already at his best and that's average

[tHeArAb]

Both are pish, let's face it. Robson might get better, Booth certainly won't. Robson is decent cover for both left back & left mid however.
Let's get a proper left midfielder in with pace and trickery instead of using a makeshift one.

I seem to recall that the Dundee Courier and Evening Telegraph had reported that United was meant to be holding talks with Alborg about Safranko.

While it is a few weeks or so ago now the fact that that it has gone all quiet has me assuming that it was just paper talk with no evidence to support it unless I have missed anything else said about any such move.

I suppose failing to get promoted would have been an issue for making his stay permanent.

I think he’s leaving, for 3 reasons. His wages, reported signing fee and the player wanting to play in the premier.

However, I’m not that gutted. Genuinely don’t believe he’s as good as people make out. He holds it up well, puts in a shift and has the odd moment of brilliance. But he also misses a load of chances and can disappear in games. I’d like him as an option but also believe the budget can be wisely spent on a couple of decent players

I have a feeling we'll sign a Spanish speaking CF
to keep Adrian company. Just a hunch

Just a hunch 😁what do you know stokey?

Just a hunch ��what do you know stokey?

Not a lot! Would be surprised if we sign one south American with Spanish as his first language and let him get lonely and possibly homesick. It's a very big culture change for a South American. I think Asghar said something about worldwide contacts, just a guess really.
