Yes, but this allows us to negotiate our own fee and sell on clause. St Mirren have received £1.3m from John McGinn, simply through sell on fees.

Radford 72 Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 I actually thought Saturday was possibly his quietest game since breaking into the team. There wasn't much football being played and he was tasked with the holding role, where I think you lose a bit from him. Can barely remember him getting his foot on the ball. That's not a huge criticism but if the manager, as he's stated, is still trying to establish the best role for him, I think it's further forward. But then he's probably more suited to playing deeper than Davidson or Holt. Having four decent options in the centre of the park - add in Liam Craig - is no bad thing and the as much as you want to see McCann progress, the team doing so must always come first.

I thought Liam Craig gave a masterclass in the role at Rugby Park, not sure he made a tackle the whole match but was always in the right position to make an interception or pick up a loose ball. His experience really told and at this stage of his career, it's a job that really suits him. McCann is better than being restricted to that area of the pitch though. I think it'll be disappointing if we see him back there long-term, although not sure how TW fits the three that played on Saturday in otherwise.

Was talking about hearts when they did have the ball, but agree Craig was excellent at Killie and thought very streetwise when he came at the end on Saturday drawing fouls and breaking the play up. Mccann has been excellent and and another half season starting games can be only good for his development and saints future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melbourne Saint Posted January 15, 2020 Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 All credit to Broon for this. Get a contract sorted early, no dithering about & agent shite. If he keeps this up, in 12 months he'll probably be gone... and we'll get decent moolah.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if it is the player or the system but he hasn't seemed the same as last season thus far. He was getting plenty of mentions for their squad when the season was ended early but then came the change of manager. Albeit in a different position, Jordan Jones is in the NI squad and he hasn't played for quite some time if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
