Player Suggestion Odsonne Edouard

[Patrick Suffaux]

Celtic striker, 15 in 31 games last season. 21 years old. Aston Villa also interested according to papers but they can’t sign everyone. Paper talk suggests they’ve been quoted £20m which we certainly wouldn’t pay. I don’t think Villa would either.

Given their interest in Baldock, I wonder if worth a cheeky bid plus George as a makeweight. He looks like a player that could develop and be a nuisance for PL defences right away.

Seems a bit out of budget but you never know.

Yes we do. Non starter.

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

Well there's your answer

....because a newspaper said so? Ok

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

Yes we do. Non starter.

As above ^

That is roughly how much he'll cost though, they don't need to sell

How many players from the Scottish league have cut it in England

How many players from the Scottish league have cut it in England

Ever? Many.

In recent years? A few more than most people remember.

Also it depends what the definition of “cutting it” is?

 

[Richard_dowse85]

cutting It those players who can overwhelmingly say wow yes they can play.
The likes of Virgil van dyke. Not so much the like of kris boys.

The best player in the Championship this season was John McGinn.

Really okay that’s 1

 

[Nick Jansky]

Really okay that’s 1

Andy Robertson had a pretty good season too

 

[Richard_dowse85]

Andy Robertson had a pretty good season too

Got me on that one.

 

[Nick Jansky]

Got me on that one.

Wouldn’t say no to Ryan Fraser either

 

[Akinbiyi]

Got me on that one.

Recent years there hasn’t been that many transfers from Scotland to the top 2 divisions in England that’s why there aren’t many. But there’s a reason Man City And Chelsea send some of their top talent on loan to Celtic.

And out of them how many have progressed.

Patrick Roberts went to Granada last season didn’t do too well, supposed to be on loan to Norwich this season
Charly Musonda didn’t make an impact at all and only lasted 6 months of an 18 month loan deal

Don’t see what your point is though? If a players good enough he’s good enough, what division he is in is irrelevant.

Give credit where credits due they are professionals like you say no matter what league there in. My hats off to all professionals out there.

And some of those professionals could cut it in the Prem. This one in particular though would be out of our reach I imagine.

 

[Richard_dowse85]

What's your point Richard?

I don’t believe John McGuin was the best player In the championship or were you on about Scottish players in that league if so I totally agree with. That’s what my point at my comment really

Not sure I understand your comments tbf, but I wondered why you asked how many from the Scottish leagues 'cut it' in England?

All of this is personal option people may agree may not. I don’t see many players in the Scottish league making it In the premiership. I guess if they want it they will

Still don't get your point. So not many Scots currently cutting it in England, so what?
There aren't many Egyptians either, but you wouldn't say no to Mo Salah, would you?

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

Wouldn’t say no to Ryan Fraser either

Haha keep going. That’s three off the top of your head. No one from Scotland has ever made it down here apparently.

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

Speaking of players from Scotland making it down here. John Fleck is doing alright as well.

For £20m I’d want them to throw Cowdenbeath and Stenhousemuir FC in as well, plus the Little Chef building on the A9 near Soldier’s Leap at Killiekankie and a full box of Hungry Bear lollipops.

 

[BladeTillIDie]

Edouard and Henderson would be my top 2 targets in the summer to go straight in the 11. £££
