efc1111 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Maybe we could put in a cheeky joint bid for him, Ryan "The Scottish Messi" Gauld and John Souttar? Dundee United's young trio are attracting an increasing amount of attention, largely due to all the clubs checking out Gauld, but we've been linked with Souttar for a while now and if we made an offer for all three (maybe with a loan back for the rest of the season) we might be able to steal a march on all those clubs sniffing around Gauld. I jest. I think. http://www.eveningtelegraph.co.uk/sport/dundee-united/everton-join-gauld-chase-1.146968 Quinn31 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Gauld's just signed a new 4/5 year deal. He'd cost more than he should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efc1111 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) Yes, looks from the reports as though the top clubs from throughout Europe are well aware of Gauld and there will be a lot of interest. Hadn't seen this from yesterday's Mirror, but they reckon a joint bid from us for left-back Robertson and centre-back Souttar could be on the cards: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/everton-transfer-news-toffees-plot-2934744 Edited December 17, 2013 by efc1111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_E Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 If he's checking on them personally then you'd think a bid would be going in. Unless he doesn't like what he sees of course. But I'd assume that the scouts (and possibly one of his assistant coaches) are convinced at least before he goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have mentioned the latter part because that's what I was thinking, i.e. they've liked what they've seen and now RM just wants to have a final look for himself.

Lowensda Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 He's only just joined them, signed a new 3 year deal and hot property. It's a risk for us but could be a good bit of business. Like Stone's deal, I think it'll be a a low outlay, with many add-ons. If the total transfer is worth a mil, even, the first installment I can't see being much over 500K.

bluenosetoffee Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Just looked at a Dundee united forum eastfootball.co.uk and a person commented and went "1.5 million with loan deal and 20% sell on clause. Sick of English club ripping us off!!" Made me laugh a little....I was having a look to see what people thought of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Watched him on sky today. He isn't the quickest but likes to get forward and is comfy with the ball. Gauld came on in second half. Now that's a player!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Gauld is a potential superstar, he is only 17 but isn't small but will get to be a decent size.id spend large on gauld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcBell Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Being from Scotland, we hear endless amounts about the Dundee Utd youngsters, and rightly so. However as they signed Robertson in the summer on a free transfer from a 4th tier team, I can't help but feel it is a steep price to pay. On the other hand, Gauld is something special and merits all the applause being put in his direction, simply sensational with the ball at his feet and really will be a big player in the future. Having signed 2 new deals in the not so distant past (one before and one after his 18th birthday), he wouldn't come cheaply I wouldn't imagine, Dundee United have arguably sold well in the past. Souttar, I've never seen him be outstanding while playing against my home team (Ross County) but I suppose has never had to be, there is a youngster with Kilmarnock Mark O'Hara, who has been brilliant and of a similar age to the Utd trio. All this being said, the very much unsung hero at Dundee Utd would be Stuart Armstrong, the Scotland U21 captain, goes about his work a lot quieter than any of the previously mentioned players, while also being a vital part of their jigsaw. I think it would take something special for Jackie Mcnamara to sell any of his starlets!! Just a wee curve-ball to throw in.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Cheers mate. I agree Gauld will end up at united or arsenal but I hope we put up the money and loan him back to united Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
