Transfer rumour thread 20/21

[tHeArAb]

Seen that last night, same agents as Clark now.

I don't know if this means he's more likely to leave or not? does it make any difference?

FWIW i do think he will leave this summer and we probably should try and cash in while we can, doubt he would accept another deal, unless MM changes the way we play next season.

No idea. The only other similar thing to happen close to home that I can think of recently has been Edouard at Celtic and we all know he's heading out the door this summer. I'd say it wasn't exactly great news, but who knows.

If he goes then he goes mate, he got us promoted, joab done

shame he;s not had the service this season, one of the best strikers I've seen and should be scoring a barrel load with the right service

Hmmm....... looks like he's been speaking to players at other clubs. Not surprising because they talk all the time. Before the internet you used to dread international call ups because of tapping up by the players in the dressing room. Now it's done on watsapp groups. The timing seems to suggest the new agent has promised to get him "a better move" or "the best move for him". Which usually means not necessarily the highest fee for the selling club but the best player wages and agent commission.

If I was him I would have been speaking to MM and basically saying in a nice way look for my short and long term career success I need to be scoring in a team that creates for me. If you can't arrange that I want away. So what are you going to do? He might have said he wants away regardless.

The question if he does go what's his minimum value and are there clubs prepared to pay more than the minimum value because they know he'll score regularly at a higher level providing they give him the service we're not giving him.

Which leads to the question how the hell do you replace him without having to part with a serious fee?

It's not the first time something like this has happened on the back of a player going away with an international squad. We only have ourselves, well, the manager to blame but hey ho. We'll probably never know just how good he could've been for us in the Premiership if he does leave as its clear to see he's been stifled of opportunities and the chance to prove himself with the system we play.

Really can blame the manager if you want that we were not over running teams and making loads of chances for LS but don't think he had the players to do that obviously if shankland had been with celtic or rangers would have got lot more chances but don't think MM had the squad to make these chances and keep the goals out at other end.Hopefully he stays another year and we have a more attacking formation next season he scores more and gets a better move but only time will tell.

Punted by Glass on the say so of Brown apparently. Safe to say Logan and Brown have never seen eye to eye. 😂

No, can't blame MM, if LS had scored every one of our goals fo far, got a great move on the back of it while we got relegated we'd all be raging.

I think the loss of Chalmers and the addition of McNulty has had a negative effect on things as far as Shankland scoring goes.

Admin, any chance we could have a fresh Transfer rumour thread at the end of this season....

Yeah agree with that.Hopefully now we are almost safe from relegation we can go for it a bit more in remaining games and the cup maybe get a few more goals from shankland
