Here is a list of players who have left clubs this summer and most are now free agents.

https://nareystoepoker.blogspot.com/p/on-this-page-aim-is-to-cover-every_1.html

Some players to note from me:

- Jonny Hayes (33 but would 100% still do a job and can cover multiple positions)
- Alex Gogic (CB from Hamilton, still young and always looked composed)
- George Oakley (Striker who was at ICT and Hamilton - although I'd still rather we went after Nisbet)
- Stephen O'Donnell (already mentioned on this thread but Freeman's new contract may mean we are not in for him)
- Ally Taylor (younger brother of Greg who is at Celtic - has rejected a contract at Killie and is a young central midfield who I think is quite highly rated)
- Steven Lawless (also mentioned on this thread - very effective player for Livi last season. Can play wide, through the middle and takes a good corner/free-kick)
- Drey Wright (also already mentioned on this thread)
 

I’d take Alex Gogic, had a great season with. Accies.

Still think 2 CHs is our priority. The lad Jimmy Dunne who was on loan to Hearts a couple of years ago has been released by Burnley. Defo worth a punt.

 
That’s a great shout. Few Jam Tarts I know rates him highly

Good to see this one still knocking around. Even if it is The S*n.

Get it done United. Him and Shankland up front would be dynamite.

In the last two seasons:

Nisbet - 78 games 57 goals
Shankland - 74 games 62 goals

Total: 152 games 119 goals

Re: Summer departures/signings/rumours thread

We need to aim to qualify for Europe next year, if we fall short so be it.
To achieve that we need quality signings and blend of existing players / young laddies coming through.
Bearing in mind the unfortunate probability that we'll lose Shankland January.
Mediocre signings (Billy King/ Cammy Smith) we'll end up with mid table mediocrity.

Re: Summer departures/signings/rumours thread

Going by what was said last week, we’re going to be prioritising and signing on a position-by-position basis. What for you would be the order in which we need players in, for me it’s;

LW
CM
CB
RW
ST

Wouldn’t be against us bringing in another LB either, but I think even filling the positions listed above is gonna be a stretch given the current situation, so will probably have to make do with just Robson there.

Winger cover (either right or left - most are interchangeable but left winger probably ideal with McMullan on the right)
CB (maybe 2 unless one of the youngsters can step up)
ST
CM

So thats our legal person, our stats guy and our sporting director. Certainly a clear sign that the effort is being put in!

Re: Summer departures/signings/rumours thread

Would like to see us sign the following:
CH - Dunne and Gogic.
LB -  Hayes
CM - Ali Crawford
LM - Niskanen or Nicky Cadden
RM - Jodi Jones
ST -  Kevin Nisbet/ Chris Long or Krzysztof Drzazga

Kidding yourself on if you think we are going to sign 7 players.

Some good ones there.
Don't think Arab67's saying we're gonna sign all 7 - more a wish list (isn't everything this time of year ?)

Did Jodi Jones not get murdered from that prick of a boyfriend of hers; Luke Mitchell and his mum tried to cover it up?


Too much commotion

Different Jodi Jones lol. Jodi Jones has been outstanding for Coventry. Can play either flank, pace, skill and creative. Only 22 as well.

Not saying we should sign 7 players, suggesting possible targets I would like to see us go for. Out of that list if we got Gogic, Dunne, Niskanen and 1 of the strikers I'd be pleased.

Think we can definitely make a good deal for Nisbet. £450k plus Adam King and Cammy Smith permanent and Logan Chalmers on loan for a season. I think Dunfermline would bite our hands off at that.

Love to get Pav back.



Ceres Arab on Twitter has Times article of 6/6/20 lauding Shankland.

I don't think we will spend that much on him now, dunfermline are skint and will probably take half that amount. It will depend on Hibs and if we get into a bidding war I reckon they will outmuscle us.

Probably right Arabdoonsouth.

But if its a buyers market through Covid19 we will have different opposition for signing with the same amount of money tae spend on talent like him from a lower level of previous suitors thinking the exact same.

Snap him up early days afore the new signings delay issue is multiplied after the Covid19 squash on signings kicks aff when clubs get the feeling to stabalise and go with budgets eventually known understood and ready tae spend.

I agree, honestly I think anything over 100k with a decent add-on will get Nisbet this summer.

The agency that represents Niskanen is now following United on Instagram too. Definitely some activity there. Is the Finnish season finished?
