DM has been linked with a number of Scottish players. All young too, but I can't remember the last time there was a decent Scottish player. Do you think it's because they are cheap and not too much of a gamble?

Everton are being linked with a move for three young players from Scotland. Rangers starlet Barrie McKay, Dundee United striker Johnny Russell and Kilmarnock winger Matthew Kennedy are all reportedly on David Moyes’ radar.
McKay is 17-year-old who has recently broken into the Rangers first team and has impressed already. Manager Ally McCoist recently described his performance against East Stirling as ‘Magic’, after the youngster scored in a 5-1 win. McKay’s contract at the Scottish giants is set to expire in May and if he doesn’t agree a new deal he will be able to sign a pre-contract with another club. Everton are said to be sniffing around the youngster and after already raiding Rangers for Jelavic and Naismith, Moyes could again make a move for one of their players.
Dundee United striker Johnny Russell is another talented Scotsman being linked with a move to Goodison Park. The 22 year old netted twice in the Dundee Derby earlier in the season and is a Scottish international, after making his debut for his country back in May. Sky Sports reported Everton interest late last week, but the club haven’t confirmed anything as yet.
Kilmarnock manager Kenny Shiels has spoken out angrily about Everton’s apparent approach for his player, Matthew Kennedy. The 17 year old burst onto the scene in Scottish football when he was just 16 years old and Everton have reportedly lodged a bid of around £250,000 for his services. Shiels recently told the Daily Record:
“The boy’s head has been pickled with talk of Everton, There are negotiations taking place at the top end of each clubâ€
“I have spoken to Matty’s father and told him what I think is the best thing for his son’s career. A young lad’s career is the most important thing here, not finances.â€
