Whilst I won’t claim to know him or watch a lot of Dundee United games he seems something different to what we have and something I like in opposition teams I’ve seen this season. 
 

As the game evolves you have to defend from the top and even someone winning a few headers has to be a plus if it slows down multiple attacks.

Ayez this really can't be underestimated.

I've never seen a stat, but our retention in the final third must be up there with the worst in the league.

Reckon all that fannying around in the man city arch probably pushes that figure up.

But like you day Collins and McAtee couldn't win a header between them.

At first, I was a bit wary of us being in for a target man Parky didn't rate but I've read that he did offer him a new contract and he turned it down so it seems that's not the case

Hopefully if he does sign, he'll offer us that presence up front we're sorely lacking

Matty Jacob a left back is being mentioned from Hull City.

Left back....Things seem to have gone quiet with Roughan  at Lincoln

Jacob seems decent but once again had issues with injuries....Thought we had changed from this sort of recruiment

The only positive on this rumour is that he is a left/back not a 5/7 inverted wingback

Then your opinion is null and void on here, my friend 😉

Just been reading about players finishing at Everton. 

Above our "pay grade" no doubt, but putting that aside, would Michael Keane be someone that could really help solidify us, with his experience?

Local lad too.

 

He is currently on around £90k a week.....bonkers innit.

Chance he could stay yet, and be 3rd/4th choice, but 90k a week ffs!!!

24 years old and never been a regular 🤔

He's also had a deal agreed with an MLS club for weeks already, I believe.

Oh thats news to me, be a good move that.

He is a better striker than McAtee too I recon.....

It's a no from me. 

I'd take a punt at getting hold of either Wootton or Olaofe from Stockport. Only up the road so not much upheaval and big dent for a major rival next season.  

Can't see either costing more than Mcatee.

Why is it interesting?

Because I hadn't realised it was a 6m deal. Because he i initially settled in well. Because I thought he was a decent pkay if used properly. Because he looked as good as anyone else can in red. Because I like Greenhalgh's meat pies.

You don't have to agree. On any of it I just thought it was.

Might be better at singing than playing football.
