I don’t think we could afford to pass him over when we all know how well he fits at this club. It remains to be seen if that is still the case.... But with the threat we pose on the wings, plus the threat of Tony up top, having Danny in behind is huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlickDT Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 What an extremely good window for us. We now have attacking options. Kane's return will also boost things- he looked like a new player at points last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueheaven Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 12 hours ago, Cagey said: Danny wouldn't go anywhere else but Saints. He only left because it was Hibs but the dream died. Oh come on, we all know that's not true - Swanson's a wonderful player and if it's true that he's back then I'm delighted about it, but let's not pretend he has some sort of huge loyalty to Saints or to Tommy Wright. One thing's for certain is that Steve Brown has seriously backed Tommy Wright in this window. Might have been nice if it could have happened when we were on a roll after winning the Cup, but better late than never. Really exciting to see what Tommy Wright can do for us when he's allowed to get the targets that he wants and shape the squad the way he likes it. I'm more excited about Saints now than I have been for a couple of years. Next priority for me now would be getting Watt tied down on a longer deal. Bit surprised we didn't ship out any midfielders before the deadline as it looks like we have way too many now and there's no way we can have a settled team whilst keeping them all happy. Scougall in particular seems to have slipped way out of the picture - little bit disappointed by that as I don't think he's ever really had the chance to show what he can do for us. dave mc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBored Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Well that was an interesting night. Assuming Swanson does sign and ignoring the question of how do we play all these attacking players at one time, we certainly now have a squad full of options and a decent player in every position in the forward places. Still think we are a little light in midfield if Davidson is out for longer than thought and haven't really seen much of Callachan. I assume he got most of his Hearts games in the Cathro experiment. As has been mentioned credit to Brown, one of the things that I felt has kept crowds away from McD has been the lack of exciting football. This window should change that. He certainly can't be said to not be backing the manager this time around as you would imagine the likes of Kennedy, Watt, Wright, Scougall and Swanson will be on decent wages. On Scougall, we have never really seen him in his best position behind the attacker and with Swanson now in the door (almost) and McMillan and Alston having played there this season, will we get to see him have a run....I have my doubts. Can only imagine Tommy doesn't see what he wants to in training. Still the player can't go anywhere now (are loans now out as well?) and he'll just have to get his head down. One wish....play all the attacking options against Celtic in the cup and see where that takes us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat McGroin Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 I think Swanson will be used in the role that McMillan played last week. In behind Watt. With the current signings, who knows where that leaves Spoony and Scougall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a common thing said amongst those ITK tbf, suggestion is Saints were the only club he'd give up on Hibs for. Same way that the only club he left us for before was Hibs.
