£5million his first decent season and only played under half of it not a chance I would be giving them that.

There is clubs that are in for him I think 2-3million is the max we should be looking at paying what do the rest off yous think.

how do you expect rangers to compete in europe and against celtic, if we don’t want to pay the money for players, if that’s what they want then they will most likely get it, you want us to offer thruppence ha, penny?

we expect the right cash for our players, so do other clubs.

One tomthumb I don’t expect is to compete in Europe at the champions league level at all and to compete with Celtic we won’t do that by spending £5million on this type of player ?.

explain how that works mate,

nobody mentioned cl

what type of player?

if your talking about a young striker with tremendous potential and first team experience, then i have news for you, how can celtic compete against us by signing young players at 5m range

but we can’t according to you, do you not know these are the prices we must pay to take another clubs prized assets?

Agreed rfc22. Much better value about.

btw, if you don’t expect rangers to compete in the champions league your on the wrong page

any rangers fan should always expect to compete no matter what

unbellievable.

tell me what type of player should we be buying then, our business plan is to buy young talented guys who can do a job for us, then his value will rise

in fact exactly what this boy is

sorry i think you don’t get this.

So a 1 in 3 striker for Blackpool who before that played 6 games for Swindon is worth five million?

The quoted fee is so high because he is on a hot streak just now.

Players with a scoring record and previous club list like that ended up at the like of Hibs and Dundee Utd and you want to chuck what is a serious chunk of our money at him?

Think I'm glad I'm not getting it if that's the answer.

The guys 25 Tom will be 26 in November 2 years time would be lucky to get the 5 million back for a 28 year old he’s not the quality wee need colak was half the price and is 3/ 4 x the player.

Morelos is leaving next summer for free if we don’t sell him in January. If we could sell Morelos for a few million (I doubt we’ll get more than that) and replace him with Jerry Yates on a 5 year deal I’d take that. I’d take that all day long.

Now do something similar with Ryan Kent. A quality young RW to replace him as well.

il leave it to the professionals, if they rate the boy at that level it’ll do for me.

Think we need to move away from English league players horrible value all over inflated prices.

Tt1212 the "professionals" have 4 decent signings out of 23 in 3.5 years. I wouldn't trust them to tie their laces.

Guys we had chance to get a young free scoring Lawrence Shankland (Gers fan) at Ayr Utd in around 2019 for hundreds of thousands not millions.
He went to Dundee Utd and then Beerschot then Hearts and has scored wherever he has played.
We did not take a chance then because he was not a high profile type player. but who knows what he could have achieved at Ibrox (3 goals at weekend vs a Premier defence) .
I would like us to take chances with these types of player rather than becoming fixated with an English based player who is on a hot streak and we will end up in a bidding war for 5 mill or more.
We need a good blend of signings because not always the big price guarantees the best outcome - that's why our signing policy concerns me at times.

Would rather try Clarke Harris we where linked with also. Yates goal return isn’t great especially for 5m.

So we will chuck another £5 million away like The Turk ( and before anyone jumps on me that's was £3.5 with afd ons for the Turk ) and not play the chap - please do not give GVB anymore time or money.

GVB did not bring the Turkish lad to Ibrox Wilson did, as a replacement for Bassey. GVB was not allowed to bring in any of his choices because no money according to board. Blame the board not GVB.

I'm sure we were linked with him a couple of seasons ago too. He could be a dud on a decent bit of form or he could be the next Ivan Toney. I remember our fans scoffing at 5m for him a few seasons back. Floyd, Shanklin went to Dundee utd and struggled in Spl getting 8 goals in 32 games then struggled in Belgium. Seems to be playing well for Hearts and I think for a free would have been worth the gamble but I reckon if we had signed him then he would have struggled and probably been sold to a Hearts, Aberdeen etc by now.

The quoted fee is so high because he’s signed 4 year contract and scored lot of goals this year speaking to Blackpool fans they are any 10 million for him.

I'd chuck the £5 million on Shankland instead. Should have signed him 3 years ago.
