would be a good signing if it happens.

experienced and good passer, well priced and decent age.

It was plain to see very early on that Jairo wasn't good enough and now a second manager has no faith in him. He may well be sent out on loan.

Agreed , I think some times , the assessments people make of some of our players is based more in hope than fact..

Jairo's challenge is his athleticism. Both offensively and defensively, he just doesn't get around enough. If he fixed that he'd be world class.

I think a lot of people hoped a bit of a run and a manager's faith would see him show it. Sadly he's struggled.

If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

This is a quality signing. I've been a bit perplexed at some of the reactions on here an wondered where else would we pick up a proven Premiership quality midfielder, still only 26 for £6m???...

He is certainly better than Kouyate and Jairo and a perfect replacement in time for MacArthur.

Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

Very good signing and another transfer whose value exceeds the fee we paid. Finally building squad value after years of declining.

Gallagher, McArthur and Hughes could be very decent midfield trio. All have a good engine with ability to break forward. Jairo, Kouyate and Luka could all struggle for game time this season.
