    Another lad with minimal league experience.

    I really hope we start well and these young lads hit the ground running because it could be a long old season if we don't.

    Have to admit I like that he has pace.

    Over the years I have thought and expressed my concern of the lack of pace in the team.

    If he is quick and we know Robbo is quick then that's a bonus.

    We need quick full backs though for sure.

    No excited by him but he's an added bonus.

    Forget experience. What we need now is presence and a bit of badge thumping!

    I’ve just seen on a twitter someone saying transfer mean nothing unless fees are paid... this is what the club is up against.. as has been said many times it’s not all about fees and Edin has said he’ll pay more wages and less fees.. yet people still moan..

    Yes you’ll never please everyone but Jesus!!

    There is not a fùcking chance Edin is paying big wages. This is proven by the fact he's signing unproven, young players who will be coached mainly by unproven, young coaches. It's further backed up by moving as many of the big earners from the old regime as possible.

    If he was paying big wages we'd be bringing in proven quality and he'd be demanding a promotion push.

    What Edin says is not always what Edin does. How many times does this need to come to light before people take his rallying calls with a hùge pinch of salt?

    So what was the actual point of the post then? What exactly was your counter argument to the moaning?

    But its true-we will just have to wait and see how the players gel and perform as a team.

    Too much inexperience could be the downfall for sure.

    But on the flip side it seems we are signing good talented lads who want to be first team players and do well for the club.

    Let's wait and see :oops: what further signings come in eh?

    So are you saying all these young lads are just not good enough?

    I would not be able to make that assumption myself at this point.

    But is he spending the transfer fees saved on increasing wage offers to attract better players? Otherwise, it's an even worse situation.
