Next to no chance of retaining Goss, I think realistically we could go for Davis or Arfield on a free and let Docherty feed off their experience. Am I the only bear worrying how Dorrans and Jack are going to slot on when fit? Wallace is in the same boat. I'm glad Murty is picking players on form, I just think we are top heavy on mid fielders and little room for the youngsters breaking through. same old story.

28 Feb 2018 16:54:08
I think ryan jack will go in alongside greg docherty if sean goss goes back to QPR (really hope not)! Ross mccrorie will more than likely go back to his natural centre half position and although if he can't immediately get back in the starting eleven, he can without doubt, cover both the centre half and holding midfielder positions!

28 Feb 2018 17:16:13
What about Charlie Adam if Goss goes? . Play him in the centre to kick Browns bawz

28 Feb 2018 18:00:43
Goss only has 2 year left on his contract and next to no premier league / championship / Europen experience, I’m sure he’ll go for under £2m which would be a bargain. I think QPR already know their in a negotiation hence their press statements regarding the transfer. I can see one of two things happen, 1. We get him for c. £2m or he extends his contract and we get him on loan next season.

28 Feb 2018 18:49:09
Feel we've a gem if our own in jamie barjonas, rate this guy highly! As previously posted I'd love Goss permanently but we have a plethora of midfielders are good ones at that things are looking good

28 Feb 2018 19:22:45
spot on supercoop

i wonder how dorrans will slot back in and more importantly what happens if morelos is sold in summer will cummings sign perm?

28 Feb 2018 19:23:33
McRorie is no good at centre half but can do well in front of the defence

28 Feb 2018 19:24:59
Can’t believe you’ve mentioned Adam and Goss even in the same sentence 🤦‍♂️😂😂

28 Feb 2018 19:35:35
Dorrans to come back as well lads. Remember before he was hacked down he was assisting and scoring goals in a disfuctionak Pedro team!

I think Dorrans will be brilliant under Murty.

28 Feb 2018 20:51:12
DEEB, ross mccrorie is a centre half first and foremost mate! that's his natural position and he's a good young centre half, with a turn of pace into the bargain! I prefer him there, although he can play in front of the defence in the diamond!

28 Feb 2018 21:09:00
I’ve always seen Dorrans as an attacking mid, he is a 15-20 goals a season player when fully fit, I’d alternate him and Windass and get back up for Murphy and candeias in the summer

28 Feb 2018 21:28:34
Agree BearMide91, think getting Dorrans back in the first team squad will make it significantly stronger. See he is back in training and hopefully we will see him return soon.

28 Feb 2018 22:00:36
Goss won't extend his contract with qpr, why would he? They left him to pretty much rot. We came in and gave him the chance and the belief to prove himself at a massive club. He is now struting his stuff infront of 50k, and looks as though he is loving it. European football next season, he has the bite and I have no doubt that if we were to agree a fee with qpr that he would sign for us in a heartbeat. With every penny of profit from the retail deal coming our way from the end of the season then there will be a little bit of extra cash coming into the club. A permanent deal is very much possible.

28 Feb 2018 23:34:23
Hope you are right Coldo. I'd love to see him stay for the long haul

01 Mar 2018 10:16:54
Declan john was a loan and he got the bite, could have made a fortune in the championship but where else would you want to go after playing at ibrox. John said himself that he did not hesitate to sign a permanent deal. Goss would sign in a heartbeat.

01 Mar 2018 10:25:06
supercooper

I like McCrorie but he is often out of position when played at CH and struggles to run with the forward.
He is a completely different player in front of the defence; I guess Murty things the same

01 Mar 2018 12:34:52
McCrorie was forced into dm position because of injuries to dorrans and jack being suspended then injured. He is a good centre half who will only get better. I'd have him over Martin or Bates anyday

01 Mar 2018 12:34:59
What was ross mccrorie's original position DEEB? He's a very good young centre half with pace which is a superb asset for a centre half!

01 Mar 2018 12:45:34
Agree 100% supercoopereleven

Celtic fans are currently trying to find out who is in charge of the snow and if he/ she is a Rangers fan, protestant, free mason or part of the illuminati

🔴⚪🔵.

28 Feb 2018 13:16:50
Hahaha they are some crew!

28 Feb 2018 14:41:03
Even God is winding them up with that pesky Sectarian, Bigoted snow that only postpones Celtic games! 😂😂

28 Feb 2018 16:47:04
A guy at my work was disgusted that we played on Tuesday and they play on Wednesday, putting pressure on them to win and when I pointed out it was because they played on Sunday he said " exactly, yooz won on a Saturday putting the pressure on us to beat Aberdeen " so I had to point out the fact that they played on Thursday night, you couldn't make it up.

28 Feb 2018 18:10:06
I'd give up jyf. I blame the schools

28 Feb 2018 18:19:57
Maybe the next thing they shall question is why there is only 7 days in a week as yet again it's a conspiracy lol

28 Feb 2018 22:03:17
Jyf don't waste your breathe mate, there was a few on here last week claiming that a draw was a point gained and not 2 points dropped. As seeker said, definitely the schools 👍

01 Mar 2018 08:54:05
How do you think his wife feels? 😩

28 Feb 2018 10:05:04
You guys should watch Rangers second goal vs St. Johnstone if not already seen, the build up play was fantastic, the goal itself was kind of easy, but the movement and passing was Barcelona like. if that was Messi and Rakatic it would get big reviews.

28 Feb 2018 10:25:43
The final pass from big Doc into Windass was sublime. This game with the Tim can't come quick enough. Feel a wee draw coming their way tonight.

28 Feb 2018 10:27:54
Games off. Maybe no then lol. Still suits us tho 🔴⚪🔵

28 Feb 2018 10:40:17
It was a terrific team goal dave king! Superb intricate passing throughout the move for our 2nd goal last night!

28 Feb 2018 10:54:51
And I can't see it being rescheduled before old firm game so the gap could be down to 3 points if we beat them which I'm increasingly confident we will do.

28 Feb 2018 11:44:23
Need Murphy back for them lads!

Pray for Jamie's toe.

28 Feb 2018 12:53:48
thats lustig now banned from OF game as thier game off tonight candyman would have run rings tound him

28 Feb 2018 14:47:39
Candyman will be busy bossing Tierney again, Blueblood. If we're missing Murphy and they're missing Lustig, I don't know who will be up against who down that flank (our left, their right) .

28 Feb 2018 15:06:53
Murphy will play against them but feel lustig will play and his red will be applied to the rescheduled Dundee game

28 Feb 2018 19:11:05
cant see it bear82 rules are rules and its the next playable game

28 Feb 2018 19:12:30
can see murty putting JW on the left and cummings in the 10 role

01 Mar 2018 01:08:45
blueblood, against Celtic?

I hope not, Cummings is never a number 10. I don’t think there’s any chance he will start the Old Firm. He will come off the bench depending on how the game goes.

28 Feb 2018 08:15:36
So Mark Allen had an informal chat with Graham Potter in Manchester just before Christmas exploring the possibility of becoming the new Ranger manager. Both men felt the meeting went well but neither party wishing to take it any further. It appears Potter is putting himself in the shop window by meeting a number of English clubs while his stock is high following the Europa League run. Anyway, it's Murtys job to lose now.

28 Feb 2018 10:23:11
We will never know how good Murty can actually be unless we give him the chance. He has us playing football which is breath taking at times. He is only going to get better.

28 Feb 2018 10:24:54
These kind of chats happen daily. If Murty continues as he is then he will be offered a rolling contract.

28 Feb 2018 08:10:51
Was very impressed with Doherty last night reminded me of a young Ian Ferguson in the middle of park an unbelievable bit of business for 650 grand 👍🏼 Goss was immense as well McCorie, Jack and Dorrans have a fight in their hands to get back in the team.

28 Feb 2018 08:42:57
Like many on here I now see McCrorie moving back to CB, Jack for me is back up if we manage to keep Goss next season and Dorrans is far better suited to the no.10 role that a Windass is playing just now. Competition for places and options will be key to mounting a serious challenge next season and Celtic definitely won’t get away with dropping as many points as they have this season. Could be interesting! I’m not giving up this season either, if we win every game we’ll win it, but it’s a tall order, would love us to beat them and they drop another 2 before the split, can you imagine?

28 Feb 2018 09:09:48
Totally respect everyone's opinion on here as this is what makes this a superb facility, to air all our conflicting opinions! JGG1,thinks greg docherty is a similar styled midfielder, to a young ian ferguson and that's fair enough! Like i've said on here before, i see shades of our former captain steven davis, in young greg docherty! Either way doc is an absolute snip of a signing, at 600k! I've always liked the look of docherty for well over a year now! He'll be a great signing for us!

28 Feb 2018 09:12:54
I realistically think winning the title this year is out of our reach but again you never now and we should stay positive about the situation! The pleasing factor for me mate is our club is moving in the right direction with hopefully a bit of investment coming in we can add a few quality additions in the summer in key areas. Keeping Morelos and signing Goss is in my opinion.
