His wee flick on Talbot's cross was sublime (saw it described as scrappy!) for the second goal. He had a great game. Loved when he took on about six of them.... dropping two of them on their arse. He'll score this weekend and get right back on top form. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 AJ says he's looking to get in a couple of players. M'Voto's performance the other day might change his thinking if a central defender was on his list. Williamson doesn't offer as much as an attacking force without Higgy alongside him but having Paton in that midfield three works well. Right back at least for competition and an attacking/creative midfielder would be on my shopping list. A young, peak form Jackie Macnamara type and a young peak form Stevie Bell or Davie Irons type. And if we're 2-0 up, don't be afraid to chuck on Andy Ryan or Aird with more than 10 seconds left please AJ. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was obvious that a couple of players were knackered - especially MacManus, who looked absolutely fucked and could barely move. Still think another central midfielder is the priority. I really liked Paton, Nat and Shiels in the middle on Tuesday but we need cover. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forzapars Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 James Vincent (midfielder) is apparently on our radar for a 6 month loan deal, along with Kostadin Ghadzalov (defender). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Looking at the competent midfielders we have let go over the last 18 months - Geggan, Falkingham, McCabe, Herron - any one of those would have been a decent squad player at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you asked most Dundee fans, you'd realise that Vincent is horrific. Gadz is a class act and would stroll the Championship. He's just not as good as Hendry or Meekings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How likely is it that we would be allowed to sign Gadzhalov permanently? If we sign Vincent on a 6-month loan as rumoured, then the only way we can sign KG is if he's released.

There were rumours he and McCann fell out and he's just not in favour with McCann. He only has 6 months left on his contract whilst Vincent has 18 months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gadzhalov can play CB only? Or can be cover elsewhere? We've got 4 CBs but one can cover both RB and LB too so I'm thinking if KG can cover RB and CB e.g. then it could be a decent deal to leave us with cover at both FB positions as well as more than enough options at CB also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I like this Gadzhalov already. One of those "can't be arsed spelling/pronouncing his name every time, so let's call him by the first few letters of his surname." See also; Faissal "Faiss" El Bakhtaoui. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was signed initially as a player that can play CDM. He played there once (Admittedly before he could speak English) and had one of the worst performances I had ever seen. Looked like he had never played football before. To be fair, his performances at CH weren't significantly better but it was clear that a lot of his issues was down to communication. He learned the language but has still never been deployed at CDM since. He's very strong, good in the air, and classy with the ball at his feet but he does tend to have a habit of going braindead at times. He could play at RB in a pinch but I wouldn't recommend it, he's got the frame of a CH and it'd just look out of place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 "Rumours"? No, I mean most Dundee fans. Check the forums, social media, pretty much anything. Gadzhalov is well liked. Vincent is a joke figure. So much so that there is an audible groan at Dens when he's announced to the point that I've felt sorry for him a few times. He's just not cut out for top flight football. He's an absolute shitebag. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, Gadzahlov sounds ideal for us as we need at least 1 more CM and another defender as backup cover wouldn't go amiss either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf that view on his is pretty unanimous from whatever Dundee fan I've ever seen. You never know, he might be one of those guys that with a change in scenery and coaching staff he improves, McManus, M'Voto and Robinson were pretty unanimously mocked by Rovers fans and they've done alright. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
