Steero113 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 45 minutes ago, MaVilla said: for anyone who doesnt know much about John Swift. (i would spend 8m on him, good squad depth) To be honest he looks a lot better (against better opposition as well) than John McGinn looked in his SPL highlight reel and look how that turned out. Would be a cracking squad upgrade at £8m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) Calling @Villan4Life who do do you rate higher Connor Gallagher or John Swift and which would be the better signing?

I've watched 3 of Dundee United's games so far this season. Neilson has been very impressive indeed. He's got big potential. He's is already had representatives from Leeds, Leicester, Southampton & Everton watching him. https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/sport/football/dundee-united/1533964/exclusive-big-english-clubs-take-an-interest-in-young-dundee-united-star-lewis-neilson/ Dundee utd fan here. Neilson seems to have come out of nowhere. Wasn't one of the ones who we were expecting to make an impact in the first team (Kai Fotheringham was my guess). Holy crap has he been impressive. So composed for a boy who has just turned 17. Big lad and still growing. Everton were up looking at him last week. Massive potential 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) I think we have to accept that to a lot of players we will be somewhat of hard sell unless we basically bribe them through wages... I’m sure say Belloti for example wouldn’t turn down £180k P/W.... That would shatter our wage structure as Jack and then Mings & SJM would all want and warrant pay rises and the wage bill spirals. We have to also accept that Birmingham doesn’t have the same draw as LDN or Manchester and many a European city, so again from that POV again not appealing in comparison - unless £££+... I personally believe this is where the problem lies in terms of lack of activity. Fee’s won’t be the problem necessarily it’s how much do we bribe players to choose us. Just a thought.

The area around places like Tottenham and West Ham is a sh*thole, as is pretty much anywhere in London where the PL teams play apart from Chelsea and maybe Islington (Arsenal). The players wouldn't live in Birmingham anyway, they'd live in the lovely suburbs out in Sutton Coldfield or somewhere of that ilk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been watching what i can this season of Dundee United. You too bud. Pleasantly surprised by our start this season. Pretty much the same team as we had in the championship and Micky Mellon has us playing with loads of effort and pressing.

Ah interesting, Seems a very good guy and is getting the best out of our players. Giving the youth a chance too. Hope you enjoy following Utd! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
