JECK Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) 14 hours ago, Alan said: Good opportunity and the sell on clause may keep Dundee Utd away from the repo man for another year. I'd say Tierney is better. Plus he's younger with Champions League experience. Agree Tierney does look like he will be better but Robertson would have been involved against all of England's top 6 over two seasons in the EPL. Great, Tierney has had 6 champions league games last season but it hardly trumps Robertsons experience. Besides last few games for Scotland proves we can play both. Both need to fill out considerably though, especially Tierney who looked like a wee laddie up against the big pacey England players in June. Strolls through the SPL but came up against greater athletes in England. Edited July 22, 2017 by JECK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems it's only £600k over three years so probably not. There's also nothing left for the Repo Man - Cammy Bell for £25k maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parklife Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 According to Kicker magazine, Leipzig want to off-load Burke. Google translate of article below: According to kicker information, the signs are growing that Oliver Burke's pay game in Leipzig despite contract until 2021 ends this month. According to RB sports director Ralf Rangnick, a loan is not a question, at most a sale of the 15.2 million euro kiosk 2016 from Nottingham Forest. Several English clubs have inquired, concrete interest now clearly shows Crystal Palace. But as Rangnick does not want to sell Burke at a loss, the Eagles would have to dig deep into the bag. http://www.kicker.de/news/fussball/bundesliga/vereine/2017-18/1/tm-news--20576-8760-.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope if he does move it's to a place where he will play every week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toepoke Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Disappointing to read these tweets from Derek Rae about Burke... Kicker reporting Oliver Burke is on his way out of Leipzig and on the verge of a return to England. Loan unlikely, looking at transfer. 1/2 — Derek Rae (@RaeComm) August 17, 2017 Burke thought to have shown little improvement re tactical understanding/work without ball.

er yir macaroon Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I think the Burke thing is probably rubbish. His manager said there would be no point in him going out on loan (as they have very specific tactics that he wouldn't learn at another club), so the magazine has made up the rest.

ErsatzThistle Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Get the feeling that Snodgrass may have been a "chairman's signing" and Bilic never really wanted him at West Ham. As others have said, Snodgrass has been poor for Scotland over the last twelve months. He shouldn't be in the starting XI at present and is starting to get on a wee bit too, Snodgrass will be thirty next month. I'd like to see Tom Cairney ideally get a chance instead of him but he's unfortunately injured at the moment. I also fully take back my past criticism of Callum McGregor. He has made some improvement under Brendan Rodgers and is worth a look in the next friendly match in an attacking midfield role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inclined to agree, Palace seem to be linked with a move for him since the day he first moved out to Leipzig. There was a recent interview before the England game about how the club have financed for his parents to move out to Germany to join him.
