Clubs seemingly have already agreed a fee which “could rise to £2.2 million”. bargain if so. striker and creative “10” please and we will be set. Yep, seeing that from multiple sources now. Medical underway as we speak. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will then have a man marking him more often. I think we have also tried it and he wasn't great. Tav is not the quickest of players as you can see in his defending. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reminded by his penalty yesterday what a magnificent striker of the ball he is. Think he took just a couple of steps and got terrific power on it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Seems strange we're spending a significant figure on an area we're already pretty well provisioned for, particularly given how poor we are in attack. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It strikes me as an opportunistic signing, and one we could well make a tidy return on should he work out 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 4,808 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Barsic / EL Eligibility re. group stages (touch wood) 41.06 As a rule, a player may not play in the UEFA Champions League and/or UEFA Europa League, for more than one club in the course of the same season. Exceptionally, however, a player who has been fielded in the first, second, third qualifying round or the play-offs of the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League is entitled to play in the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League for another club as from the group stage.

However, we are looking very strong defensively and still very poor going forward. It's going to be a long season if Lafferty and Morelos are the main strkers we have to choose from. And Murphy, Windass etc aren't goods enough for the supporting positions. At least Middleton looks promising.

We have plenty of LB bodies...but how many are of the standard the SG is looking for??? Is Flannigan actually a LB?? If Barisic comes in we'll also have Tav, Flannigan, Wallace, John & Hodson. Hodson isn't registered for Europe (I believe), and I'd assume neither is Wallace. I also can't see Wallace playing for us again. I think Wallace & Hodson will be moved on in some manner. That would leave Tav or Flannigan on the right and Barisic or John on the left. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
