| Marvin Compper; So good that he exists on an etheric plane far beyond that of Scottish football | |

If the guy is a player we don't need a centre back. Here's hoping. |

"I'll Never Forget What's 'isname "-a film before most on here's time but apt ! This is one signing I really can't get my head round , like Lenny's Freddie Ljungberg (who at least WAS a player !) |

Read or watch a bit about the guy and you'll see why we signed him. It's hardly a Bangura or Amido scenario. |

What is there not to get? We needed experienced left sided defensive cover. He's played solidly in Serie A and the Bundesliga for the past wheen of years, and had only lost his place to an umpteen million pound wonderkid. An injury in Dubai and Ajer's breakthrough have limited his appearances. It's no hard. |

Wish he was a bit younger., but even at 33 centre backs are rarely anywhere near finished. Look at Barzagli at 37 still a world class defender. Just need to hope that he impresses in pre season and comes in like a new signing. |

Limited his appearances? He made one. Ajer's emergence didn't help Compper, but it isn't the reason why Compper didn't get near the field again. Ajer, Boyata, Hendry, Jozo and even Lustig were all ahead of him. Lack of fitness is apparently the reason he was overlooked, so hopefully he's shown up ready to go for training camp. He obviously has a great pedigree, let's just hope he still has the appetite. |

He'd have made more but for the fact he was injured at the beginning, then couldn't get the games to get fit because Ajer was playing well. Thus, his appearances were limited... to one. I'll take what the manager said about the situation over yer theory if it's all the same. Edited by popeyed, 25 Jun 2018, 08:20 AM.

No chance of Brendan foregoing the signing of a new CB because he hopes Commper will make good. If he sticks by the guy it's because he's convinced he's worth it, and that's good enough for me. |

Doubt he's keeping him, but while he's here he might as well get set to step into the breach if Belgium have a good run in the World Cup. |

Gonna stick my neck out and say unless the back line suffers a massive injury problem he will never get a look in. Bizarre situation signing him. |
