Who dat?Lawrence Shankland
Didn't take Malen long tonight to score another good goal:Scored 5 goals yesterday for PSV (v Vitesse). Also scored for Holland in Germany (2-4) last week, the kid is on fire.
I think he wants out as well. Or at least did last summer when Dembele (not that one) went back to France.Odsonne Edouard at Celtic.
There were rumours that both he and Olivier Ntcham wanted out after Dembele bailed out but they now have another young French player in the squad and they are all said to be good buddies. Edouard was supposedly signed to partner Dembele but that didn’t work out obviously .I think he wants out as well. Or at least did last summer when Dembele (not that one) went back to France.
Worth keeping an eye on for sure.
I think Marseille were in for one of them as well this summer before they decided to go and finally lure Dario Benedetto to Europe instead. And so far that is working out well for them.There were rumours that both he and Olivier Ntcham wanted out after Dembele bailed out but they now have another young French player in the squad and they are all said to be good buddies. Edouard was supposedly signed to partner Dembele but that didn’t work out obviously .
Edouard has so much natural talent in him and is an ice cool finisher.
Ntcham is ridiculously talented but lacks a bit in application at times. He voiced his unhappiness in the summer but has since come back into the fold.
Rumours that Celtic turned down £15M bid for him from Porto.
Fast forward 3:36 young left back plays for Hearts 17 years old youngest scorer in a Edinburgh derby coached right and not at Hearts could be as good as they they say Tierney is.
Bit of a dinosaur! His tactics are brutal Hearts have no finesse what's so ever they're full on bulldoze the oppo guy up front who scored the first goal he's a monster! But in saying that Hearts over the years have had some promising youngsters irrespective of who's been the manager but non have really pushed on despite the early signs being good.Craig Levein is an ultra defensive coach, bit of a dinosaur, but Hickey looks good so far and is worth keeping an eye on, Man City said to be monitoring him.
You are right, if anything I think he is getting worse. Ikpeazu is an archetypal battering ram striker and yes the young players don't seem to fulfil their early promise - Cochrane seems to have disappeared ?Bit of a dinosaur!

Man of the match v Celtic last season and the next big thing got lauded as having potential Scott Brown had other other ideas and as you say never been heard of since! But same old story Hearts had to invest and bought a lot of players and they have to play them roll back the mid eighties, nineties the exact same thing happened at rangers and Celtic and a whole generation on Scottish talent was lost to sub standard foreign imports.You are right, if anything I think he is getting worse.

worth snagging a few of those youngsters up on the relative cheap then and rehabbing them down in our youth system?Man of the match v Celtic last season and the next big thing got lauded as having potential Scott Brown had other other ideas and as you say never been heard of since!

Both players mentioned Hickey and Cochrane would benefit from that experience.worth snagging a few of those youngsters up on the relative cheap then and rehabbing them down in our youth system?
Personally I'd be all for it. Sprinkle out our signings with a few promising youngsters from "lower" leagues to develop and grow. They'd certainly improve in our setup.Both players mentioned Hickey and Cochrane would benefit from that experience.
And if Scottish lads it woulddnt do our national team any harm.Personally I'd be all for it. Sprinkle out our signings with a few promising youngsters from "lower" leagues to develop and grow. They'd certainly improve in our setup.
There is that of course for you Scots.And if Scottish lads it woulddnt do our national team any harm.
