Woodstock Jag Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Released by Dundee United. He was decent enough in his loan spell. Worth a punt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elevenone Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 I would snap him up, thought he did well for us, believe some off field problems at Utd but yes worth a punt imo. I mind sitting behind goal at Killie and having the time to say to my son 'thats going into top corner' such was the distance and sweetness of strike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sick in the basin Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 On the evidence other than the Killie game a resounding no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian_mac Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 I would take him back. Different option to what we have just now and he would improve the squad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnyjag Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Would definitely take him. IMO he is the type of player who would benefit from being at our club, being nurtured by a manager who knows how to manage players. It's clear he needs some support and someone to coach him properly, and I wouldn't imagine he would command a huge wage as he has probably been weighed in by Utd for remainder of his contract and would be a decent squad player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Would take him back in a heartbeat. We need attacking midfielders and he fits the bill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeanieD Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 He might have - perhaps better off - suitors, but if Osman and Lawless leave and Bannigan isn't available (either through transfer or injury) then Muirhead might be worth a punt?

Winter of '63 Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Muirhead was remarkably unremarkable in his loan spell...he looked an over-coached player who always wanted to turn back and play a safe pass. I would rather see a player with a bit of flair & verve. We are already fully stocked for next season with less than stellar attacking options...Amoo, Elliot, Pogba and Edwards have hardly torn defences to shreds and I didn't see anything in Muirhead to think he is an upgrade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Murray Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 He was not great in his loan spell but you could see the guy has potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) I would take him back. Different option to what we have just now and he would improve the squad. On one hand the lad's just turned 20 year old. So the perceived reasons he could hardly get a game with us and not feature in the poorest United side in a couple of decades could purely be down to immaturity. On the other hand as we all know some footballers never mature. We know Archie (and I assume Shaggy) are cautious in who they employ. I don't think for one moment that they'd knock Muirhead back on either skill or potential, as Ian says he'd offer a different option. I wouldn't tho' be one least bit surprised if for other reasons they may not be monitoring the situation.

sabbath Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Oh Yes well worth a punt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChewinGumMacaroonBaaaz Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Punt? Yes. Take it? Aye... depending on the stake... Could be the experts nap amongst any pre-season recruits. Saw "Muirhead" - Thought "Aero". Not saying we should tap up the "Bairn". Just that the "boab", still has alot to prove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodstock Jag Posted April 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 If Lawless doesn't stay I think he's got to be taken seriously as a potential target. He's fairly versatile, and frankly I'd be surprised, contract extension notwithstanding, if Pogba is still with us in 12 months' time.

jags on tour Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 aye would like to see him back, he has posted photos on twitter replying to manu pascali of the 2 of them and it looks like he might fancy a return there, although with higgy and magennis and their new signings that might be an issue. if the Erch hasnt been on the phone to his agent already id be surprised.

Third Lanark Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Is it the rule up here that you can only play for 2 different clubs for the season? If that's the case and United have released him surely the only team he could play for in the last couple of weeks is us? Right now we look like we need anybody we can get to add a bit of fire power and don't really see what we have to lose by not giving him a1 month contract 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there always was under SPL/SFL. Think it was 31st March Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garscube Road End Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 But as he is unattached with no club Im sure anyone can sign him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
