Michael Devlin
Tony Gallagher
Chris Cadden
Ryan Jack
Kenny McLean
Jamie Walker
Louis Moult
Jason Cummings
Subs: Zander Clark
John Souttar

there is the odd name thrown in there to make up the numbers but it was fun.

The only two that might make a difference for me are Calum Patterson and Ryan Jack. I would like to think that with Caixihna's connections that we will sign quality players from Portugal and South America, (Mexico being a prime example)!
We will not overtake Celtic with players like John McGinn, Zander Clark and Michael Devlin

I would like Ped to go for Miguel Veloso he's a DM and his contrat expires this summer, wee bit old but way better than Halliday. He played under Pedro in Sporting Lisbon.

Clark
Patterson
Souttar
Lindsay
Shinnie
Walker
Mallan
McLean
Elliot
Cummings
Rooney

Totally agree Ajax, he's a cracking player. Only 30 so still a few good years left in him.
12 Apr 2017 21:28:22
It was not suggesting we go for them all. Just a wee bit of fun.
12 Apr 2017 21:29:02
The only one I would take out of that is Cummings! As TOMUSA says we won't catch Celtic with that group of players! We need to think outside the box and go foreign and hopefully produce a few gems that way.

John mcginn is a cracking young player, who will only get better the older he gets, I don't know if you get many Scottish championship games out in the us of a but hibs don't look the same team without him and the boy is only 21, rangers would be lucky to get him .

Budget scottish squad? The likes of patterson cummings jack cadden would all command 1 million pound transfers. As would rooney.

Mcginn is awful. Doesn't even look good in the championship. All this hype just like Stephen before him because of who their grandad is. John mcginn isn't half the player halliday is and he isn't very good either.

Fab, I don't usually find myself agreeing with you, but I agree with your last post 100% mate. I have post on here on a couple of occassions about John McGinn. He is a fine young player and in my opinion one of the best young Scottish talents just now. a lot of my fellow bears can't see past the end of their nose when it comes to him and its because of two reasons; 1, He is a Hibs player and 2, and more importantly he is a Celtic fan.

We don't see Scottish Championship games in the US, but the problem, as we are seeing with Rangers this season, it is a different ball game when you are playing against SPL sides or are playing in Europe.
What we do see in Texas is a lot of South American games, Mexican League games in particular, and there is a lot of quality on show. Good players with a bit of dig and hopefully Pedro knows a few of them!
