Your hopes may well come true. Scottish teams and European competitions have rarely sat favourably together.

Well if he isn't in the starting eleven this season, it would have been a waste of time him signing for them.

That is what he is banking on l would imagine.

They are two alike. Both ball playing centre backs, both number 6's as opposed to number 5's. Each team needs a big strong number 5 too, and big Shane is that man.

This is all taking so long, l'm amazed that there hasn't been an approach from another club now that it's freely known that he is available Connor Goldson is a good player, surely he would attract more interest.

Well you say that, but as far as c) is concerned anyway, apparantly the Katic deal went through very quickly indeed.

Hmmm what makes me think we could still be talking about this in another 7 days?

Madness.

I don't doubt thart planty of Scottiish players do still make a career south of the border, but the quality has diminished massively since the 1980's, where are the modern day Dalgleish's, Jordan's, Hansen's, Strachan's et al?

Hard to argue with that, especially the last part of your post. Until fairly recently there was a production line of talented footballers comeing out of Scotland. Far fewer now.

Rangers were undoubtably stronger in those days, but even then, it was always about Rangers or Celtic, it was a very rare occurance indeed if another club won the league.

On the one side of the coin that is very true, the flip side says that if he does even reasonably well, he will be stand out like a beacon from his team mates, so in time it could lead to even bigger clubs taking note of him and wanting his signature. Until recently of course Scottish football...

All new players should be willing to challenge those in the team, it keeps everyone on their toes.

Wwll actually no, l think Goldson is probably better than Duffy with the ball at his feet. Duffy is much better when the ball is in the air, more robust, and stronger too.

I absolutely agree. I think we have come out of this rather well. What many posters on here don't seem to appreciate, is that Connor Goldson has played relatively little first team football over the past three seasons, and almost none of it in The Premier League. To read some of the comments...

G51 2XD in fact, Ibrox Stadium, the home of Glasgow Rangers.

How do you know he can hack it in the Premier League without seeing him! I, and more importantly other clubs, would want to see the proof.

And talk of Paddy McNair too, yet another centre back. Perhaps all this is telling him one thing, that his future needs to be away from the Albion. Sometimes that's just the way of it, it's time to move on, nothing lasts forever after all.

He will never ever be as good as Lewis Dunk.

Thank, you! one, does, one's, best. :bowdown:
