Galatasaray is a huge step up from hibs and would be a great opportunity for him. Absolutely it would. It'd be good for Scotland if he could get into the first team of a huge club and better yet, score some goals for them. From a career point of view it could be his big opportunity to make some serious dough from the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of very few teams that would happily spend £30m on a player to sit on the bench. But I think Hickey does have the potential to thrive at a top team like Man City. With the upward trajectory of Newcastle, I wouldn't be against both Tierney and McTominay going there. You'd imagine Newcastle will now be one of 7(?) teams in the EPL fighting for a champions league spot every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tierney certainly needs to move on, he's played very few games for Arsenal this season. Though on the plus side there's less chance of him getting injured.

One slack game and he'll be dropped for a world class replacement as is those big clubs ways. Better for Scotland? No I want him getting guaranteed first team football. I have already seen one of our very best players club career stall at a glamour club in the form of Kieran Tierney at Arsenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen much of him but he seems like a strong boy with decent pace who works his socks off but doesn't have the skill set to play at a top level.

He’s played over 170 games in Scotland, the majority at championship level, and has scored 36 goals; that’s a pretty decent sample to say he is unlikely to ‘smash the shit out of this league’’. There is a constant tendency to devalue our own league against the English Championship but the Championship is full of utter cloggers and is insanely overhyped. Dykes is a great player for us but I don’t see him ever being a prolific striker, it’s not his game and to be frank he’s not particularly good in the grand scheme of things. I also don’t buy the instant improvement line we get for players excelling in England either, it’s just a lazy excuse to explain why so many players from our shit farmers league smash the shit out of their leagues.

He's still only 20 though, comfortable on either side and bags of potential. I'd be very surprised if Hickey doesn't go on to play for a top club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
