Hearing we are in advanced talks with at least 4 players, looking likely we will have all in place for when the boys and the new manager are back for pre season
All young players of international (full/ U21s) pedigree
I'm not sure what our new model for player is, but been told all players fit in with our criteria
Looks like we have a new core criteria when recruiting players
Maybe @EHL can expand on that if that's true?
All very exciting as leads to an advancement of our player trading model with exciting young players.

It's very much the same criteria as we began implementing last season.
A lot of work was done from January to ensure that we were in a very strong position when the window opens, so most of our business is done.
Exception being if we sell an asset, however even then we have replacements identified.

We want players that will play for 15k a week. That should be our budget.
We've paid ridiculous wages for years, with not much to show for it.

Ayebrox, not saying I'd sign vardy but you 100% need experience to supplement the youth.

Would think a spine of experience in team and the rest young players so we can compete as well as get the transfer model working for us, experienced or young we must get both right.

EHL are we still looking at a few guys from our league?
Or is it going to be more down south and abroad?

Very much torn on Vardy, if the rumour is true. Yeah he would score goals but his card would be marked by the refs in Scotland keen to make a name for themselves. I truly believe he would spend as much time suspended as he would on the pitch.

100% need experience. We currently have Raskin, Dio and Barron in the middle. They don't have anyone of any note to learn from other than the coaches.
Look back at all the great young teams, they always had a couple of older guys in there.

I see Marton Dardai signed a contract extension before Christmas but I hope it was just to get Hertha full value for him rather than ruling out a move all together.
Get him signed, he'd be perfect for Scottish football!

Hopefully the new owners will be able to pay some players more than £15k a week . If we want to add some really good, experienced players to the current squad we will need to pay what they are worth to tempt them to this league.
The other mob have just agreed a deal of £30k a week with Tierney, they are our competition, if we are not prepared to match them then we cannot expect to compete with them .
Its all about VFM, that's what we need to get from future signings .

Wslgers your point about wages doesn't make sense when you consider we literally paid more than them for years and we got 1 league and cup out of it. lol.
