Listening to a couple of Hearts fans with connections to management Shankland's head is wasted and wants a move, putting 2+2 together doudbtfull for tomorrow is he on his way to Rangers.

We won’t be in for a striker unless Danilo or dessers move.

I think with all the speculation around us signing him in the January window he must of thought it would have been a certainty we would come in for him this summer.

No he isn’t.

No way, but I hope the other Shankland, David Shankland Watson from Killie, might be.

Personally can’t see it. I get the feeling with Shankland if it was to be then it would be done by now.

I’d still like Shankland, problem is I don’t see us carrying four forwards and with dessers in good form where does Shankland fit in?

He has played as a second forward or number 10 for hearts but don’t see him suiting that role in our team he would need to be the number 9. I also think there are other areas of the pitch that are a priority and not sure we have any interest. Plus you have to give Danilo and Igamane game time. Be shocked if it happened.

I feel for the guy as I think he deserved his dream move last summer or definitely in January window but now it makes less sense for where we are.

If Cantwell and Wright leave Shankland would be a good replacement either as striker or number 10 as he has been playing with Hearts with Dessers as striker.

Sadly we aren’t in for a striker because the manager board and majority of fans now feel that Dessers is going to fire us to the league title and be the best forward in Scottish football this season. ??.

Why would we be wanting Shankland signed unless for a place on the bench, not a chance does he get in the team ahead of our goal machine Dessers?.

Take him for free next year.

Guys we don't have 3/ 4 m for shankland or anyone it appears look at our dealings we seem to be scrambling all over for loans with or without options to buy. Have we seriously made a bid for any player? Iv seen posted on here we've bid 5m for Rhamani or 7m for whittsker and unless we get a major surprise in the next 2 days those figures will have been shown to have never been available. It's a sad reality especially with our biggest rivals spending over 20m on 2 players but as a club we don't have 5 6 or 7m to buy anyone so talk of signing any player with significant value is pointless. I hope I'm wrong but nothing this window tells me I am.

It's not happening. We bought Danilo for 6m euros . and stuck with him.

Shankland cannot do the job Dessers is asked to do but neither can Danilo, so is the guy fed up with Gorgie getting battered and himself no hitting the target this season? Maybe worried about relegation?

Yip would sign him on a pre in January offer them 500k to get him early.

Shankland is never a number 10 ?.

There’s young talent in our own league we should be concentrating on. Shankland is a good finisher abut he doesn’t have the work rate or anymore to his game that is better than Dessers. If Dessers finds a bit of composure he could really hit a purple patch….

Honestly this nonsense needs to stop, I've said it long enough there is absolutely no way shankland would start up front for us as a first pick it's simply not happening, had this dispute with a good friend many times and to simplify it it's like Kenny miller and Boyd, Boyd would score goals for fun in a pair, miller lead the line better, hence why he played as a loan striker in every single game over Boyd, there is absolutely not a hope in hell under our formation are we signing shankland to lead the line, to even suggest shankland is capable of playing a loan striker in our current formation is beyond absurd, yes he will take chances better than dessers at times but dessers is by far the better all round striker, I'd absolutely love a front two I've said many times on here it annoys me greatly we don't play two up front at Ibrox, if that was the case yes I'd be all for it but no way on earth we are giving hearts that type of money for a guy who would simply not be a starter, I'm honestly dumbfounded how long this nonsense topic has continued under our current formation.

Just because hearts play him as a 10 doesn’t make him a 10 . He deserved his dream move
No he doesn’t.

I am glad we ain’t signing him.

Pile of ? every couple of days about him, to be sarcastic" not rangers class" whatever the f that is, going by some, most, if not all aren't either, madhouse in here at times. Stirring the pot further, big CD9 far better now.

Lucky we didn't splash dead money on shankland, he has been dire this season, he belongs where he is in a bang average jam tarts side.

Dessers, Danilo, Igamane will be our 3 until december.

Unless we sign any new attackers, looking unlikely.

Our 2 potential attack line ups are

Lawrence, Matondo, Cerny, Dessers

Or

Dowell / Hagi / Igamane?, Jefte, Danilo, Cortes.

Line up 1 has more experience.
Line up 2 has more potential.

Shankland would probably not start but would yous not take him next season on a free or in January with a small fee? Would be a good 2nd or 3rd choice striker.

Looking at him recently, a chorus of 'who ate all the pies might be appropriate '
We need to do better lads, his goalscoring so far this year is up there with the other hero, TAV!

Falkirk fans ripped it right out of him as did Motherwell punters, though some Ayr fans still sob about losing him but they are well fixed for his type now .
