Bullitt Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 I don't rate Fletcher anymore. He's too slow and has been for several years. The pace of the SPFL will be too much for him, as it has been for many who thought they could come up here for a swansong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barton came up here stating he was going to be the best midfielder in the SPL. You seem to think Darren Fletcher will stroll it up here. There is no guarantee it will happen.

piffer Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 One of those dodgy transfer mobs on Twitter have us and Motherwell chasing Gavin Reilly of St Mirren. It’s been active for a couple of hours now and has a crazy amount of rumours so wouldn’t take too much from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was known for his off the field antics rather than his ability on it. Plus Fletcher isn't coming up giving it the big one. A balding 20-something year old from Rothesay is doing it for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still very young and looks to be very happy where he is as he has just signed a long term deal. He is a fan playing and winning trophies for his team - isn't that what most youngsters dream about? There will be offers for him in the future, if they allowed the same person to win young player and player of the year I'm sure he would have won both.

Bullitt Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 We won't know just how good Tierney is until he moves clubs. In Champions League he's looked very ordinary and slow, but that's to be expected against some of the top class opposition he's up against after playing against average at best players in the run up to games. For Scotland, again he's not offered much but that's down to being played at right back to accommodate Robertson on the left. I'd like to see him in a three man defence with Soutter and McKenna and us sticking with them (don't rate Jack Hendry at all). If Tierney moves it can't be to Bournemouth or suchlike. It has to be a top English side with a top manager. I hate Man City, but would love to see him move there and learn from Pep in a style of football that would suit him. Currently Robertson is the best young player in a long time based on his achievements so far and the league/club he's playing in. Really hope he becomes a Champions League winner too.
