He's done well for us, but I think he's regressed in the last year (probably due to the regression of the team generally). I'm really not sure I see him playing in the EPL - I don't think he's got the pace required, or any really outstanding qualities - he's a good all round box to box player. The comparison with James McArthur above is quite a good one, and I suppose it does give some hope that he can forge a good career down south. When McLean left I thought he would step up to EPL level because of the type of player he was. Shinnie I knew was never going to be EPL level but I thought he'd do fine in the Championship. Ferguson will still improve I'm sure... but I could see him going south for a couple of seasons and then moving to Rangers, and depending on how that works out maybe going back south again. The boy Calvin Phillips of Leeds had a fantastic Euro’s, Declan Rice did pretty well too. Neither would be highlighted for their pace. For what it’s worth, I think with better players around him, Ferguson would thrive in the EPL Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Surely if an epl club is after him then that makes him epl standard? He's 22 and still has time to kick on again. 3m plus add ons is a fair deal for a lower epl club. Link to comment
jamiesd Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 May get some movement with Lewis soon. English clubs back in pre season and will possibly start to do some business in the window. After the transfer request saga he should be moved on as soon as a decent offer is in. Link to comment

We hold out for what we believe he’s worth regardless of transfer request. We hold the cards. His wanker agent should of insisted on a low buy out clause if he wanted us to accept a joke amount. Incompetence on his part. Link to comment

Unfortunately for Ferguson his agents a fucktard hun who doesn’t have two brain cells and thought that meant any offer from a EPL team he could leave. Morale of the story, make sure your agent ain’t a fucktard hun and you’ll be fine Link to comment
RED_JOHN Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 What’s the general consensus on here regarding Lewis Ferguson….should we keep him or sell the want away player? I would move him on. 1 Link to comment

I would move him on. Sell him for the right money...nothing pitiful like 2 or so million...don't wait like we did with McKenna...if we get a good enough bid...let him go. If not, he stays until someone comes in for him...if he wants a move to EPL then his performances will need to be great...thus his profile and cost will go up Link to comment
Bournemouth Gee Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Seems to have been really badly advised. Interesting that brown mentioned how he liked playing alongside him, he may even have a change of heart if we have a good start to the season. Or Play well, get your big money move and fuck off. 3 Link to comment
RED_JOHN Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Here is a question for anyone….We sell Lewis Ferguson and our esteemed chairman decides to give Glass £1m to spend from the funds gathered. Who would you like us to realistically sign? Link to comment

Cormack giving Glass £1m to spend on 2 players is nothing to him. It should be a given especially once we sell Ferguson for £3m plus Link to comment

GDON21 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 If we moved Ferguson on and brought in McGrath plus either Kerr or McCart from St Johnstone or some other decent centre half, then that would be great business imo. Link to comment
Chester Don Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I wouldn’t be selling for less that £4.5m with significant sell ons. He is a cracking player in an average at best team last season Link to comment

Bigger maybe, but unfortunately for most of these players they spend 75% of the time not playing get loaned out to clubs much much smaller than us and then drop off the radar! In 5 years time we are on here as he signs for a Scottish championship as he tries to get his career back on track 1 Link to comment
