According to the quote in the report it says Strachan still has to give the go ahead.  Lets not count our chickens just yet, but what a good signing if it is true because he looked class during his brief spell here.

On his day (as we saw more than once last season) a class act, but off form he can be awful - without much in between.  Seems to be a confidence thing with him and I would prefer to see him with a bit more competition for a place though.

Blahblahblah has pretty much got it right, although I would prefer to swap one midfielder for another centre back - preferably someone with some experience to sit beside Shackell.  As for Martin JC, he is not yet the finished article and needs careful development over the coming season.  I hope we do not rush him or build up too much expectation so he ends up either believing his own publicity or the subject of derisive comment from the usual suspects.
