Hate posting like this, I'm an optimist by nature, No glossing over no excuses after a great pre-season we were very poor against Progres both legs, yes we should/ could have scored a lot more at Ibrox still we were poor. Killie didn't even show up in the first half and again we looked clueless they got confidence from our ineptitude and gave us a hard time in the second half. I put it down to our new signings too many new players to integrate easily has our squad strengthened in depth? undoubtedly, has our best 11 improved? on the evidence so far NO. Jack Kamara and Davis our still our best mids Aribo has shown flashes so give him time. Our front 3 are diminished greatly by the loss of Kent. Ojo has again shown flashes but for a big lad if someone in the crowd sneezes he's on the deck. SG said Hastie was going nowhere till he'd seen him, he's not going to see much if he don't play him. Early days but hoping for a big improvement or and 2 new signings of REAL QUALITY.

Good post Bluepete36. Yes, why not give Hastie a run? He looks big and strong and can score goals.

Understand Hastie is receiving special attention and development in training. If goes well he will be progressed to the bench in September.

I think we will get 2 signings before closes, definitely one. I think they will be wingers.
For me Kent is coming. I would love to see McPake get his chance, the lad is of a high calibre.
We are weaker than last season, I think that’s clear. Candeias was a sore one for me, I like the lad a lot. He wasn’t perfect however he was also only £950k not £9.5m!
Ojo will step up in the bigger games when the game is more open, that’s his type of game not Kilmarnock.

McPake is going out on loan, couple of Scottish Championship teams fighting it out.

I can see is getting Kent until January at which point Liverpool will try and sell him again.
Thankfully our window doesn’t close on Thursday and I can see us adding at least one forward thinking player.

Agreed bluepete ðŸ‘.

Mcpake to a scottish championship team on loan? Better playing for the reserves than that league tbh.
