Random story linking us with George Williams of Fulham, 21 year old winger with 7 Welsh caps.

Aside from Gareth Bale and Ramsey its not that hard to get capped for Wales as they don't have many players.

Would be as good as Burns or Maddison imo and we need to replace Hayes and McGinn with better quality than someone that cant get a game for Fulham.

Nail on the heed Rico, i still have this lingering thought / hope that McGinn does a U-turn and signs up, I must admit to finding it strange that he is not as of yet been openly linked with any club at all..... One could say the same about big Ash not being linked with any club, but that I can understand

I'm of the opinion that we've had the best out of McGinn. Personally I believe he's lost a bit of pace, he drifts in and out of games, is pretty ineffective in physical games. To be perfectly honest I thought he was the worst (least effective - probably a better description) player in red during the Scottish Cup final.

He's made his bed, let him lie in it. His wages can be used more effectively elsewhere hopefully.

I agree.
McGinn can be inconsistent and we should let Wright get more game time, where at 19, he's also likely to be inconsistent, but would aid his development as well additional pace to the team as compared to McGinn

He provided the assist for Hayes goal which is a lot more than some did in the final.

Talking of pace the POTY had lead boots on for their last minute goal.Personally I wouldn't have been critical of any of the players in the final but if you are going to single out a player I would go for the POTY.

McGinn making a U-turn and opting to stay would be great news as we're going to struggle to replace him with someone of similar quality. I get that he's getting a bit older and doesn't have the same pace - but splitting game time between him and Wright would be good for both of them - to expect Wright to come in and do the business every week is asking a lot of a 19 year old, he's bound to be inconsistent.

Looks like a lot of the "obvious" transfer targets aren't going to materialise - but that's the same every year. McInnes will have a list of players he feels could improve the team and he will get some of them in. There will be some squad fillers no doubt and maybe 1 other loanee who will be a hit or miss, but I'd still expect at least 2 players coming in who will go straight into the first 11 and I would think we'll pay a transfer fee for at least 1 of them.

What position does Tony Andreu play? He did well at Hamilton and again at Dundee Utd on loan, but doesn't seem to feature for Norwich.

Andreu plays as a "10" - we have Christie & McLean for that role.

Patrick Roberts only played 19 games for Fulham, George Williams played 17 games for Fulham before going out on loan
Not that I am comparing and certainly looks like he has not featured as much for MK Dons and Gillingham, but looks like an option for depth of squad
