Hull City transfer talk: Inverness starlet Ryan Christie, Stephen Quinn, Michael Dawson, Morgan Amalfitano and QPR reaction

WITH Andrew Robertson starring on his Premier League debut yesterday at QPR, Hull City could yet add another Scottish starlet to their ranks in Inverness midfielder Ryan Christie. The 19-year-old is attracting interest around the top flight and the Championship, with the Tigers amongst a host of clubs chasing his signature.The Sun on Sunday say Steve Bruce faces competition from Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest, with TeamTalk saying north-east trio Newcastle, Sunderland and Middlesbrough are also vying for Christie. The son of Inverness legend Charlie Christie, Ryan has now being talked of in the same bracket as Ryan Gauld – who was sold by Dundee United this summer to Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon. Coming through the youth ranks with the Highlands outfit, he made his debut late last year and quickly established himself at the Caldeonian Stadium.Quinn attracts Wigan interest PROVIDING the assist for James Chester's winner at Loftus Road yesterday, it's no surprise that Stephen Quinn is attracting admirers from other divisions.The Sunday People say Wigan boss Uwe Rosler is lining up a loan bid for the midfielder – as their move for Brentford's Adam Forshaw falters. Quinn, 28, is well thought of at the KC Stadium and Steve Bruce has spoken of a reluctance to see the fans favourite leave the club. Coming on to replace the injured Robert Snodgrass at QPR, maybe now is the time for Quinn to claim his place for a regular starting spot.Spurs offer Dawson to QPR in exchange for Remy? INTERESTING stuff in The Sun on Sunday today, as Tigers target Michael Dawson has been offered by Tottenham to QPR – in exchange for their striker Loic Remy. The Frenchman was subject of a lengthy transfer interest by Liverpool – only to see his move stall at the final hurdle. Spurs also saw a £5m cash bid turned down by Rangers. It was reported that Harry Redknapp was open to a swap deal of winger Andros Townsend and striker Harry Kane for Remy, however Kane has just signed a new five-year contract at White Hart Lane. Whatever the situation down in London, it still appears that Dawson (above) is available to move elsewhere, and the interest from City may re-ignite their interest in the centre-back.Amalfitano at Loftus RoadMORGAN Amalfitano– the man long linked with a move to Hull City – sparked up rumours of a move to either the Tigers or QPR yesterday as he took his seat in the stands at Loftus Road. Watching City emerge victorious, it appears the Rangers are in pole position to land the Marseille midfielder's signature, but must fend off stern interest from West Ham, Sunderland and Crystal Palace.Barton's best wishes to Snodgrass NICE touch from football 'bad boy' Joey Barton following QPR's loss to Hull City yesterday. The outspoken QPR midfielder made sure one of his first tweets to his 2.66 million followers after the game was his concern for injured Tiger Robert Snodgrass.

Also hope Robert Snodgrass is ok. He collapsed on the pitch with what seemed like a twist on his knee. Hope its good news for him.

Welbeck move dead in the water The link to Danny Welbeck looks to be well and truly dead. After Steve Bruce rubbished speculation of a £14m switch to Hull City earlier this week, the Sunday Mirror reports that Manchester United have no intention of getting rid of the 23-year-old England international. The Mirror says: "United have no interest in letting the Academy graduate leave Old Trafford. He is viewed as an important member of the squad who will get a chance to stake a claim for a first-team place." It says while Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie have the scoring records "both lack the pace of their fellow attacker – a fact not lost on the new coaching staff."It's back - Match of the Day AND finally, the Match of the Day pundits had their say on yesterday's victory at QPR. Firstly, Harry Redknapp told the Beeb: "I couldn't fault any of them. There wasn't one player out there who you could say 'Well he hasn't put a shift in'. And if we continue to play like that then we'll be okay." However, Gary Linekar highlighted Rio Ferdinand's errors, which led to James Chester's winner for City. "We sat with Rio, in Rio, and he talked about how to mark at corners, free-kicks and set pieces, whether you get hold of a man or you're zonal," Linekar said.Alan Shearer added: "Rio said he wasn't a fan of zonal marking. Well, Rio, Rio, Rio. He's clearly not a fan of man-marking either because James Chester loses him. "Rio is looking at the man, he's not got an idea where the ball is, and he loses him. "It's a great header though, good strength, but Rio will tell you himself he should've done better. It wasn't a good debut for him but he'll get better."
