Re: Hogan
Plenty have questioned whether it was a Karanka decision.
If it wasn't he deserves all he gets. Even though we were short on numbers
Rab ... Hogan was top of Karanka's transfer target according to Karanka himself

AITOR KARANKA SAYS THE DECISION TO SIGN SCOTT HOGAN ON A LONG-TERM CONTRACT IS AN INDICATION OF HOW MUCH THE CLUB WANTED THE STRIKER.
Hogan penned a four-year deal yesterday, having spent a successful loan spell at the St. Andrew's Trillion Trophy during the second half of last season's Championship campaign.
“You can imagine how happy I am,” said Karanka.
“Scott is a player who everybody knows. He did really well here last year.
“Once again it shows how well the Club is working. I didn’t have any concerns when Jukey was injured because I knew another (striker) would arrive.
“We had a list and Scott was at the top of the list at that time, we were in no hurry. We didn’t make any mistake because we knew we wanted Scotty and Scotty wanted to come back here."
