Transfer rumour thread 20/21

Has anyone actually watched this guy properly to know if he's the real deal? Six figure sums on a Championship player untested at a higher level is a lot of cash to be spunking out. I'd hate for him to be a one or two season wonder.

He did rip the Dees to shreds but i'm not sure if that's enough to be honest.

They had the best squad though G, if he ripped them to bits he’s surely the real deal mate 👀

I am sure that even with Hearts in their league they still have the best squad in the Championship mate.I have got a gut feeling they will have the best squad in that league for many years to come i'm afraid.

My Dens Park mole tells me the magic Covid insurance policy hasn't paid out a bean yet, not even 6p. OK I read on their forum 😁

I genuinely haven't seen anything of him other than the one game against Dundee. I'm confident Shankland has what it takes as we see him week in, week out. Not sure about this guy at all.

I honestly could not add to what you are saying about him mate but Dunfermline did turn down a huge bid of £600,000 for him and to me that speaks volumes.

Take Championship striker from Ayr, sell on at a profit, take Championship striker from Dunfermline and repeat might be the plan.
But Asghar and RN must believe he's got the potential. I've only seen a few goal highlights.

Did they? I know Hibs bid £350K and we apparently went in higher. Wasn't aware of any other bids tbh.

Shankland was free though. By all accounts we could be looking at spending half a million on a guy that's had one very good season at Raith and one good season at Dunfermline. Hopefully they are right as it seems like a bit of a gamble to me. Almost like a 'we have the money, so why not take the risk' type signing.

Maybe buy him and then loan him to Partick Thistle so that Jobby McCall can give him some proper coaching?
