Hearing Owen Beck not happy at Liverpool and wants to come to Rangers.

Not seen the boy play, but going by reports and opinions of others he may be the stand out candidate.

Ed, if I can ask? What’s your knowledge and opinion of the lad beck?

What’s his potential?
Are we likely to loan to buy and what kind of fee should we expect?

{Ed001's Note - very good young player, but he is only young and needs experience. The issue is that he is probably too good for the SPFL and any move back there could end up stifling him, rather than helping him. But he does need first team football and he is not going to get much of that at Liverpool right now.

I have no idea if you are likely to loan to buy him nor what fee. It would be a surprise if he was sold though, Robertson is not getting any younger and has been picking up more injuries in recent seasons. Chambers has not impressed in his chances, so Beck is right now looking clear third choice, even though Gomez is covering there well right now it is not his position.}

The type of player we should be trying to buy. Will depend on cost obviously.

I heard it just a loan not sure about any buying clause. What I heard was that he thought he would get on against Fulham and didn't so wants to move to get game time. Seemingly Celtic were interested but his representatives have made contact with Rangers regarding a move and he prefers us to them.

I want to start by saying I really like the look of this play but Liverpool have been difficult to deal with in respect of fees I feel we are daft to go for these players if they are still under a long term contract premier league youth are selling at crazy fees right now and I don’t want another Kent or Davies over inflated fee

7million for Kent really was stupid in hindsight and money spent on Davies who didn’t really kick a ball for Liverpool was reckless spending especially for a player they got for nothing.

rangers will do very well indeed to get beck

he wouldn't play for two bigger clubs, but as the ed says, he's far better than the spl potentially.

If we are getting him, its going to be at the end of the window and probably only a loan, shame as if he kicks on and plays the way he was playing at dundee and improves in a better team he would be class for us, really attacking fullback but good in one v one situations to.

8.) 12 Jan 2024

If he was that good he wouldn't have been loaned to dundee in the first place. He won't sign for a bigger club than us and he's not breaking in liverpool side anytime soon. Few years at Us then can get his big move if he proves himself.

No chance beck will come to rangers.

Thanks for info Ed ?.

Cheers Ed, apreciate the input mate ??

Maybe a 6 month loan deal is best we could hope for and then re-visit the situation in the summer.

Let’s hope we don’t get stung another £7m this time like with Kent ?.

{Ed001's Note - it will depend on Beck himself. He might not be as patient and want to just go off and play. Kids don't tend to have patience, so you never know.}

Ed, are you talking about chambers who got man of the match the other nite against arsenal? That boys a player.

{Ed001's Note - that was Bradley. And he is a player, but got unlucky with injury in preseason or he might well have been in the team at the start.}

Gofor we could have sold Kent for £10/ 15million It was a good 7million spent imo Davies on the other hand.

Rfc I didn’t rate Kent but that’s a very good point,
We got greedy, aswell as stevie G. It wanting to break up his team, we lost 30m between Alfredo and Kent, and could’ve prob got more for kamara a year prior aswell.
A lot of bad funicular management in terms of knocking back transfers, if indeed the bids did happen.

Tamf why would he not come to Rangers when he just spent time at Dundee, Liverpool have a lot of injuries and a packed schedule is the only reason he might not come on loan, the boy is fast, loves a tackle and read the games well, would love him to come to us.

Tamf1. What do you mean no chance he’ll come to rangers?! He went to dundee ?.

Big dado Harry Kane went to Norwich on loan. Jack grealish went to Notts cty on loan. Are you saying good young players don’t go out on loan? Strange comment.

Well tam enlighten us mate, why would owen beck not come to rangers if the chance arose ? We're waiting my friend ?.

Rfc22 I get what your saying but!

how much did we sell him for?
How many goals did he score?
He basically had one good season in his whole time at rangers

Performed well in Europe I’ll give you that but in league underwhelming had no instinct for goals as a forward player and couldn’t hit side of a barn door with a shot most of the time

At the time we loaned Kent from Liverpool he just came back from a failed loan and wasn’t doing anything beck is doing well his fee is likely to be high are you comfortable with another 7 million type fee for beck?

Stormtrooper, what's strange? the above players you mentioned were 18 when they went on loan and to teams that will be deemed better than dundee level. Beck is 21. Nobody will tell me he's too good for rangers after half a season with dundee.

Biggest Club in Scotland
Last 16 of Europa League
In a title race.
Scottish Cup to play for.
Is that enough for you Tam?

That’s your opinion big dado and that’s fine but it is very funnel vision in my opinion. Just because he is 21 means he isn’t good not every player develops when they are younger. Grealish was older when then 18 when he started to do well. Kane bombed at Norwich on loan. I am glad you have nothing to do with signing players at rangers.

I believe that Kent was a good acquisition from Liverpool and he was certainly instrumental in us winning the league. The fact that he cost us £7m and Liverpool built in a good sell on clause tends to indicate the while he might not have been seen as good enough to make the grade Liverpool did see him as a good young player with potential that had come through their Academy.
Davies was a whole different ballgame. He was brought in as cover by Liverpool when they had significant injury problems and at their level was a cheap option. As far as I am aware he never had a competitive game for the first team although I stand to be corrected. For us to pay £4m for him was sheer madness and yet again highlights how poor our Scouting has been under the previous Regime.

Storm at no point did i say Beck wasnt a good player what you on about mate? It was more against what the Ed said in his opinion that he's too good for scottish football and if that was the case he wouldn't have been sent here to dundee simple as that. It The chances of him making it at liverpool are slim at best. And for the record i think that's the type of signings we should make rather than spend 4m on a tiny left back from turkey.
