Was speaking to a boy at the game last night and he said Fenerbahce had contacted us to see if we would be interested in a Yilmaz for Kent swap. Sounds a little bit Football Manager to me just wandered if anyone else had heard same rumour.

Swap a guy we paid 3.5 million for … to get Kent back who walked out for zero… that’s simply not happening.

Hope not.


3.) 21 Dec 2023

I mean before we even consider taking Kent back, letting a guy we paid £4m for go would be a bitter pill. Yilmaz stock ver low right now, would like to see him do the season while trying to stay fit, hoping at very least, for his value to increase.

Actually does my head in how much stick this wee guy gets. Never had a decent run of games under his belt. Watch besiktas as much as I can and know how good he actually is! The boys the same height and build of tugay and gets slated for being lightweight ? with a run of games he would be 10x better than sledgehammer legs barasic.


5.) 22 Dec 2023
22 dec 2023 05:57:18
same height and build as maradonna and jimmy johnston, but they weren't left backs, given me same feeling hagi did, still waiting fir anything approaching a great game, he hasn't shifted borna fir a reason albeit an injury or two, but si has borna, but i can guarantee yo if everyones fit then birnas in before ridvan,


6.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 07:03:16
Ridvan has had many games to show his worth and am afraid that has not materialised - he will not do for us and feel that PC does not rate him full stop - also at most set pieces he couldn't mark a Saturday coupon never mind a player so its time to take some cash for him and move on - also Glasgow ranger - Swop him for Kent? Your contacts missus must have put too much sherry in his trifle -that indeed would be MADNESS- Barasic IS and WILL BE our first choice LB until a major change there happens.


7.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 07:28:45
Yip i agree TT12?borna will be still first choice left back over yilmaz for me and the manager's that's managed the two of them at rangers undoubtedly think the same ?.


8.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 07:55:54
Abslotely no way should kent or morelos even be considered for coming back. Sima scored more already than kent did in 3 seasons?.


9.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 08:36:53
It just shows that we need a new left back if people think barasic is the answer.


10.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 08:49:31
I think Yilmaz will be sold in the next two windows. we need a quality first choice left back. some on here will disagree, but I'd keep Borna as back up.


11.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 09:15:18
Id swop kent for yilmaz plus £3m coming our way. Then i'd play kent and drop lammers ( waste of a jersey)


12.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 10:42:56
Storm fully agree with you. borna been on decline last 2 season yet he's still 100% our best left back option. We should have god josh doig instead of yilmaz.


13.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 12:24:08
Think if we get Kent and 1.5million and 10 percent sell on the we man that’s a decent deal.


14.) 22 Dec 2023

Kent is on a wage we can't afford.


15.) 22 Dec 2023

Ryan kent is done, he cannot even shoot straight the ball ends up in the Stands, also remember him stopping play when the referee didn't even blow at pig head, and they went on to score .
The irish league is his level now.


16.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 13:27:38
Yilmaz gave an exhibition on Wednesday night on why he isn`t good enough . He was under no pressure defensively so he should have been able to show off his attacking talents but once again he was shocking . Barisic is in decline and probably needs replaced but the fact that he is still first choice left back tells us all we need to know about Yilmaz . I wouldn`t swop him for Kent and I wouldn`t loan him but if any side comes close to giving us our money back we should bite their hand off.


17.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 13:31:39
We should be looking for £4m for Yilmaz. He is still well thought of in Turkey and is a good young player. We should then use the £4m to bring in a player that will make a difference and that is not Kent who simply has an inflated opinion of his own ability and has flopped in Turkey!


18.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 13:56:53
Shanzo, am with you mate, don't think we ridvan has even had 3 games in a row to prove himself, yet being wrote off by many, was the same with Sterling couple weeks ago, now all raving about him. I have saw flashes from yilmaz to suggest there's a player there. I won't write a player of until they've had a fair crack at it to prove themselves, ridvan definitely hasn't, he's been in and out constantly, makes it really hard to get any kind of form going.


19.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 14:21:23
Under no circumstances do I want Kent back at Ibrox.


20.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 14:37:40
Berkshire I’m told hagi Davies likely to leave either Barisic or yilmas.

Both sterling and dowell wanted to move but hopefully this has changed particularly re sterling.


21.) 22 Dec 2023
22 dec 2023 16:04:20
i agree with wsl, borna isn't the answer going firward, but has been a goodly player overall, and inspired on occasion at times, went backwards a bit recently but will still be way ahead of ridwvan, its stering we should concentrate on just now though, get him tied down, and i like dowell as a player, but he has still to prove himself,

its all very well saying you can see what a player yilmaz is, and how you can spot talent, most have talent, its about spotting if a boy will be a player in your club, and will fit in, i said yilmaz won't be here long after about 90 mins, that was my take, i stand by that, he's not a rangers lb, i hope i'm wrong obviuosly but i fully exspect the “ always a ranger” social post soon, shame but i can't see him being good enough or strong enough myself.

22 Dec 2023 16:34:08
Tom, I feel the same about Yilmaz. any figure around 4/ 5 million, I'd have him on a plane.


24.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 16:42:57
This boy who was spoken to at the game, did he have an adult with him and if so would it have been prudent to speak to them instead of the boy as the boy may well have been off his nut.


25.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 16:53:44
Going to have to take a loss on him anyway, guy is just not good enough.


26.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 16:57:51
I'm really not sure on Yilmaz.

I agree he hasn't had a good run of games, so we probably haven't seen the best of him, but I have to say that I've been underwhelmed with most of what I've seen.

I'd much rather have Borna in the side and think he's going to be a huge miss when he leaves.


27.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 17:12:13
Borna has survived 3 managers who have all preferred him I think that clears up who the coaching staff trust more.

Yilmaz I think just quite clearly struggles with injuries and I'd rather sell him and keep borna and look for a another LB.


28.) 22 Dec 2023

Tom I’m still being told bosman ch in, mb deal to get him late January for a small fee.


29.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 17:24:24
TT1212 your assessment of Yilmaz is spot on, totally agree.


30.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 18:20:57
After 90 mins is plain ridiculous to judge a player don’t care how he turns out it’s very small minded ?.


31.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 18:29:34
Boy Blue 2, Yilmaz played all five games after the break last season.


32.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 18:31:35
John was told weeks ago Rangers want Barron and McKenna signed on pre contract in January.


33.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 18:52:59
My response has always been the same regarding yilmaz. Yet to see anything from him in a rangers jersey that makes me think he will be a success here.


34.) 22 Dec 2023
22 Dec 2023 19:46:50
We certainly do my star, however I think we may also be bringing another ch

Interesting is both players u mention were scouted by Wilson and Beale also Gio.


35.) 22 Dec 2023

36.) 22 Dec 2023
22 dec 2023 20:15:21
here we go again, that's my opinion, not yours, i had an opinion after i first saw the guy, i'm not interested in your opinion, no need for the snide comments nor calling people small minded, you win the champions league for that mate, so just ignore please

john, i'm still confident a ch was arranged months ago, whether recent events change that i don't know.


37.) 23 Dec 2023
23 Dec 2023 01:26:48
Wsl, just checked your right, so other than those 5 games where we won 4, drew 1 and pummelled our rivals 3 nil he hasn't had any kind of run, so he more or less being judged on 5 games really. Just doesn't make sense to me, to pay millions for a player and not give him a right go at proving himself. I'm not totally convinced he gone make it, but I'm all for giving him a chance, as I said a lot on here had Sterling as not good enough 3 weeks ago. Also dessers got a run of around 10-15 games straight.


38.) 23 Dec 2023
23 Dec 2023 11:07:11
Well done TT he's chased so many good posters off here. Thinks you contribute so much more to this site than his silly one liners.


39.) 23 Dec 2023
23 Dec 2023 11:11:02
Ridvan has played under 3 different rangers managers and been nowhere near the rangers starting line up. I’m sure these managers know a fair bit more about him than any fans having his back. He is terrible, never getting back what we payed for him.


40.) 23 Dec 2023
23 Dec 2023 12:41:56
BoyBlue 2, you`ve got to take into account the fact that when he gets a couple of games he seems to then be out with hamstring injuries, its not all about him being dropped and not getting a chance . When he does play then loses his place due to injury he has never done enough to merit being brought straight back in at Barisics expense. I have concerns about his stature as a full back but Wednesday just showed me again that his crossing, passing and control just aren`t good enough . Maybe he`ll come good, but I just can`t see it in him.


41.) 23 Dec 2023
23 dec 2023 15:16:32
wsl you are correct, i hope he has a great career, but, i have a feeling after a game or two i felt he is not going to make it here, height is a major fault in his position unfirtunately, thinking otherwise is silly, sometimes, you see a guy and you just don't see what someone else sees, i have never had a good feeling with ridvan, and i consider myself a decent judge, just something diesnt seem right, he will be gone soon imo and I've said that since day one, very very strange signing imo.


42.) 23 Dec 2023
23 Dec 2023 15:32:43
Broxy, you're correct, says everything when three managers don't seem to rate him. Borna is still our first choice left back.


43.) 23 Dec 2023
23 dec 2023 15:38:46
he won't ever be first choice mark, the boy needs to go back and have a restart imo.


44.) 23 Dec 2023
23 dec 2023 16:18:51
the guy has issues with people fergie, just enjoy the rest of the site mate, 3 points tomorrow is a must, as things stand they are struggling to break diwn livi.


45.) 23 Dec 2023
23 Dec 2023 16:22:12
Wsl, that's my point exactly mate, when he comes in plays couple of games, then gets injured, out for weeks, comes back gets injured again so when that's constantly happening he's not getting a chance to fully prove himself. I would like to see him in a spell of around 10-15 games in a row injury free, before I make my mind up, that's all. Sorry Tom but to suggest you knew he was no good after 90 minutes is just plain ridiculous, if you can tell a player after 90 mins, your wasted on here pal, especially a player coming to a new country, completely different culture, different language, different way of playing football.


46.) 23 Dec 2023
23 dec 2023 18:09:43
bb, have another look, then tell me at what point i said “ no good “

i said i felt he won't ever be the rangers lb, that was the feeling i had at that time and nothing has changed my mind, sometimes something you see sticks with you, i didn't fancy yilmaz and i still dont, hope that's ok fir you, at least you don't put a label on anyone so i don't mind your question, only my opening opinion on ridvan and i believe it was correct.


47.) 23 Dec 2023
23 dec 2023 18:11:47
and mate
i never suggested “ i “ knew “ anything, i said that was and is my feeling, nothing more.


48.) 23 Dec 2023
23 Dec 2023 20:52:19
Boy blue 2, the difference is that when he gets his chance he doesn`t impress, Barisic walks back in as soon as he is fit again. Yilmaz has never done enough for any of our three managers to think he`s the main man, now Barisic will need to fight to get back in.

I don`t remember Yilmaz ever having a match where fans thought he was the MOTM. Bornas going over the hill now but he`s had a few great games for us and even though he is past his best, someone better will be needed to push him out the side . Just can`t see it being Yilmaz especially after Wednesday when I thought he was rivalling Lammers as our worst player.


49.) 24 Dec 2023
23 Dec 2023 23:37:16
Tom I thought I had seen a post of yours, where it said you could see he wouldn't make it after 90 mins, if I've got it wrong my bad Tom.
Wsl we'll agree to disagree, but bare in mind he doesn't impress because he's getting 1 maybe 2 games here and there, coming back from injury, getting injured again, so it's so hard to try impress, when this happens.
Borna will never be answer for me wsl, he has lost 2 yards long ago, his crossing isn't the same, constantly passes back the way, his free kicks went from excellent to poor, he's no been same since that we tool mcgregor had a go at him. Just my opinion mate, totally entitled to yours bro, I'll always respect it.


50.) 24 Dec 2023
24 dec 2023 18:16:03
bb, i said i felt he wouldn't be our lb, i still think that mate.
