In a long piece on the BBC DUFC manager Peter Houston said

"I've said before that I think it would be better if he went down south, but if David chooses Glasgow Rangers then fine.I love Glasgow and live there, but I felt there is always someone bigger than him out there who would take it into their own hands to harm as he has a reputation for being able to handle himself."

I think this could be key factor in the decision.

Maybe we'll see if Goodwillie has got his head screwed on after all his recent legal 'attention' - if he has matured you would think that choosing to come to us would be a no-brainer...

When you look at it in the context below it seems sound sensible advice from Houston

Houston:

"In my honest opinion, with his off-field problems, coming to Glasgow isn't the best thing. I said that and I still stand by that," he added. "You know the troubles that can happen here in Glasgow - and I'm a Glaswegian. It's a crucial move, he has a decision to make. He has to grow up and be a mature person and I think he's getting there. I think he's had a couple of frights recently. He has to move on and think solely on a football career that can be a very good career."

According to wiki, he is only 5ft 9, so he definitely isn't the target man to play in a 4-2-3-1. However, I dont think kean plans on playing that formation anyway.

Judging by pre season and the players we have seriously been linked with and who kean is interested in signing (goodwillie/kean) I think kean seriously want us to play and set us up similary to barcelona ( :blink: ), just like how they have a small forward line of messi, villa, pedro who constantly interchange.

You could well be right there sweet, was thinking that myself, however we do need another option if that doesnt work!!

My guess is that Kean will alternate between 4-4-2 and 4-2-3-1, with Goodwillie as one of the options in a two man strike force.
