I've never heard of him. But I will take with a pinch of salt the opinion of anyone who says Alan Hutton is class & that Scottish football has improved since Rangers "died".He's a big talent. Fingers crossed we get him. He would really add some competition to our squad
He's an ugly motherfucker. We haven't had someone that ugly since Luka.
Read this from an article after the Hibs-Celtic 2-2 draw. Said by the Hibs coach "In fact, in the last 20 minutes, John got stronger when we put him back in his natural position"
Is the natural position he's referring to, DM? I understand SausageVince's opinion is that he's the Scottish Zidane. But you other who watch Scottish football. Is he any good? Could he make it in Premier League? Is he the natural replacement of Dembele?
Aye, those giants of Scottish football, Charlton Athletic and Aston Villa.Clumsy Scottish football. Similar to cavemen
Not to mention a player that Conte would like coaching.McGinn is a very good footballer. Has done exceptionally well in a pish Scotland team, and has been Villa's best player over the last few seasons.
He's far from perfect but he'll burst a gut to win possession, can score goals from all angles and distances and isn't at all bad with set pieces.
Think he's definitely a player that the Spurs support would enjoy.
You can't hide money
Bold statement, seeing that we've had some right fucking cloggers play for us over the years.Anthony Stokes scored 3 in 36 for Sunderland in the league so a 1 in 12 ratio , 0 in 12 for Sheffield utd no need for a ratio and finally scored 1 in 13 for Palace so 4 in 61 in total in England. He's 27 the only potentiial he has in regards to Tottenham is to be potentially the worst player Spurs have ever signed!
You've lost your mind.I've seen a lot of Scottish football (a hazard of living up here!) and McGinn is just about good enough for a mid-table Scottish Premier side but miles off being a Spurs squad player never mind a 1st team pick.
He might end up at Everton if he keeps improving at this rate.No matter what the anti-scottish cunts say, he's a top talent destined for bigger things than Villa.
He scored their goal mate! Sat Rose on his arse. McGinn & Mings were their best two players. McGinn's pass DID spilt us wide open, the attacker failed to score with his shot, think it was Sanchez(?) that also defended well. Ndombele's reverse chip was beautiful, the fact Kane headed over the bar doesn't make it less of a beautiful pass.If he had split us wide open, they would have scored.
He played a great pass that both the attacker and defender got to and the defender came out on top.
Close but no cigar............. The rest of the game passed him by, and had a Spurs player been as ineffectual, (beyond those 2 incidents) there would have been a lot of moaning on here.
Winks was hugely more effective and involved and some bozo's are questioning his right to start.
Tell ye what boys, I've some eye for a player
Faith's a nice girl, but I prefer her sister
Same with midfielders, there are others I think are better !
Twice. He keeps telling me to stop eating ketchup.
