Rangers Banter Archive August 22 2020

 

Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


22 Aug 2020 22:38:30
Well Lille have been busy lately

There defender Gabriel is in London tonight to sign for Arsenal and there midfielder Ikone is wanted by a number of clubs

They have cash to spend 😂😂

Add another 5-8 million on the 16million Morelos bid and we can shake hands 😂.



23 Aug 2020 06:09:47
Wish they would hurry up so we can stop Talking about him. Saga needs to end.



22 Aug 2020 22:36:00
If only we could find a box to box midfielder I think our squad would be complete but that type of player costs too much for our budget.



22 Aug 2020 23:08:53
What about the boy lundstrum We’re being linked with from Sheffield Utd. Him and jack taking turns, one sit the other doing the box to box running While Aribo stays a bit further forward and links with the front 3. I really like the sound of getting him in. And he’ll only hear good things from flecks and mcburnie. I think that one could be a goer mate. He’s solid enough to sit infront of back 4 in Europe but has a bit about him to go box to box domestically.



22 Aug 2020 23:34:19
There must be a few young hungry box to box midfielders out there we can afford

Surely our scouting team should be on the case or Infact have a list already drawn up?



23 Aug 2020 06:10:57
Lundstram would be great signing, I think we need Morelos our the door for the other players we want to come in. And another couple of the fringe guys gone. Jones/ Murphy/ Stewart.



23 Aug 2020 06:26:26
Waiting for the. we've just let one go in docherty comments.



23 Aug 2020 08:07:09
Paul, Docherty and McCrorie are both good players, but those ahead of them at Rangers are better players, so, best they move on and try to enhance their careers elsewhere.



22 Aug 2020 21:59:37
For steven Gerrard loyal ( coops) I see big dykes scored 1 from outside the box and had another assist today for the London rangers mate 👍🏻 I liked the look of the big man an aw mate would've took him at Ibrox but hoping Itten is a higher calibre for same price. Time will tell ❤️🤍💙.



22 Aug 2020 22:04:57
Good for dykes

Hope the big fella does well

Possibly one we might regret - better service may give him more goals and opportunities Than he was getting at Livi

Hopefully itten is better lol.



22 Aug 2020 22:16:27
Yip, i rate big dykes and always thought he'd have been a superb signing for us, but that ship has sailed now! We've signed big cedric itten instead and i'm right behind him and think he'll be a really good signing for us 👌.



22 Aug 2020 22:17:46
Coops come on and take a bow!



22 Aug 2020 22:37:46
That’s what I’m thinking mate, no harm to dykes but having a swatch at big ittens stats on wiki and he looks a decent player ( stat wise) 3 in 2 fir Swiss including the winner as a sub in a 1 0 victory followed by a double in a 6 0 win albeit v Gibraltar lol And think he had 23 in 42 since he signed for them, 5 in 16 on loan. Decent return for reported £2m.



23 Aug 2020 08:09:06
I think Itten and Roofe will score goals for us once they fully settle in to the team, their movement in and around the box is excellent.



23 Aug 2020 08:35:34
Irvger. They won’t score 3o between them in league. However if when Alf goes we will sign some one else up front.



23 Aug 2020 08:46:06
Correct John.



23 Aug 2020 10:22:11
John

You think if Alfie goes we will sign another striker?

Who would you like to see?

A few folk have said Brewster not sure if he would come up
But if he did I do like Brewster and think he would be magic for us?

What big proloific striker do you all think we could entice to come to Rangers?



23 Aug 2020 21:08:18
The stig I’d love to see Brewster at ibrox, not at 2 million a season loan deal.
We don’t need a big striker as such, we need mobility and guile. I like maric.
We will bring in another centre, we can’t rely on Defoe unfortunately.



22 Aug 2020 21:54:32
Didn't know the score but just watched the first couple of games on sport scene and it is going to be a terrible watch who ever gets the second goal is relieved but at 1 nill or 0-0 I think that there will be more patients with heart problems than CV.



22 Aug 2020 21:54:03
Still unconvinced they need to go on a 10 game unbeaten run before I say there potential league winners a gap needs to be opened up by at least 9 points by December that is with Celtic no games in hand then Rangers can start thinking about trophies.



22 Aug 2020 21:41:02
Why are so many so called Rangers fans wanting to sell our players at a lesser value all the time. That is why we have people in positions at the club to make these decisions. I trust these people to make the right decisions.



23 Aug 2020 00:17:20
Yeh, Doc to Hull for £380.000, we bought him for £680,000. You know it makes sense.



23 Aug 2020 02:30:27
We will make money on him if he is successful for Hull.



22 Aug 2020 21:32:53
Just seen some picks of Freds daughter on internet, spitting image but a baby with earrings is setting alarm bells off. We need grounded players in the squad.



22 Aug 2020 21:51:04
😂😂😂😂😂😂alarm bells ringing for that right enough. Barkers hair for me setting off alarm bells.



22 Aug 2020 21:56:57
TJBB, were the said earrings sapphire blue or emerald green.



22 Aug 2020 22:00:21
TJBB - What has earrings got to do with anything pal, lost me there bud 🤔.



22 Aug 2020 22:21:28
JC, appreciate the point its just a gut feeling that and probably just my bias that if your putting earrings on a baby you've lost touch with normal life. It was probably an ill informed comment by myself as most of the players drive super cars and what ever else. I just hope Fred hasn't got to big for his boots, that's all.



22 Aug 2020 22:34:32
I don't have an objection on this but my point is perhaps with the journey FRED and family are on and the cash that has been flashed they are starting to forget you must work hard for it every day.



23 Aug 2020 02:34:15
TJBB. I’m not having a go because see too much hatred on here between us fans but this is new level. are you blaming his daughter having earrings for his performances? As above I’m lost too. none of my 4 kids have their ears pierced but it’s not the end of the world or a sign of disgust if someone wanted it for their kid, not what I’d do with my kids but each to their own.

Aside from that we really should all be a bit more “sound” to one another, its embarrassing at times on here and other rangers sites/ pages. We all love the club but hatred and aggression towards fellow fans and players at times, in my eyes, needs to calm down.

Much love to everyone 55!



23 Aug 2020 12:10:34
cultural guys, piercings at a young age in South America are very norm. my ex wife is peruvian, she wanted our youngest to have earings at a year old, caused many arguments as i didnt. she won, another thing about latinas is they are very very very head strong. also another interesting fact. they want a road map for everything. if things don't go to plan they get upset easily and will do their damnest to get things back on their plan as quickly as possible.



23 Aug 2020 12:55:49
No probs TJBB, I thought about your post for a while and came to the conclusion that it was a cultural thing and he wasn't willing to take on our culture therefore affecting him mentally.



22 Aug 2020 21:25:45
Good to see young Kelly got 20 minutes action today for Ross County.



22 Aug 2020 22:21:43
Aye but I'd like him to be playi g first 11 for them.



22 Aug 2020 20:49:13
Thanks for your reply edd, i'm a very regular poster and have not been posted since that event. So you will have to excuse me for being paranoid.



{Ed001's Note - I haven't seen any of your posts until then, so apologies if they are not coming through.}

22 Aug 2020 21:07:48
Welcome back tjbb. I liked your posts. Most were good mate.



22 Aug 2020 21:16:19
Thought it was going to be a repeat of last weak but we came out with real intent in the 2nd half. Our squad quality has went up a notch or 2 and without clicking we are winning. Keeping working away Gers and picking up 3 points. Our Squad is good enough for the 1st time in a decade to win the league. Last season we were just getting by on peak from, this season we are getting by and only just at a jog, we have another 2 or 3 gears to go up. I love Fred but perhaps he was holding the squad as a whole from developing, time to move on.



22 Aug 2020 21:33:56
Ed, as a general point what is your policy on publishing our posts, assuming they are not offensive. Do you publish or are you selective and if selective on what basis?



{Ed001's Note - selective though it does depend on the editor. I delete posts that are personal attacks on other posters, which means a lot of coldo and KJA's recent posts bickering like spoilt babies have been deleted. I try and steer things away from arguments and fights and into discussion as much as possible. I have been doing this for nearly 20 years now and I have learnt it is often easier just to nip things in the bud by deleting some posts or threads which are clearly heading the way of sniping.}

22 Aug 2020 22:13:57
Thanks Ed, think most sniping just friendly ribbing. You must have full record of Coops nom de plumes.



{Ed001's Note - no mate I don't keep track of that kind of thing. There are about 70 sites so it is difficult to keep track of names.}

22 Aug 2020 22:22:06
Welcome back TJBB 👍.



23 Aug 2020 02:09:04
Was never away my friend. 💗🤍💙.



22 Aug 2020 20:33:12
well played today, well we played better.
Interesting to see all the doubters on here now posting about SG not having tactical know how n see their reaction to the fact he changed the starting formation today then also tweaked stuff at HT. Better from the two mid fielder moving the ball forward.



22 Aug 2020 21:00:14
Sounds like he done what most of us has wanted him to do for a while 😜😉.



22 Aug 2020 21:10:45
About time Kri55👏👏👍.



22 Aug 2020 21:13:24
Possibly mate, but will he get any praise for it? Nope.

PS Goldson n Tav been part of the record equalling defense today eh! Imagine they were good players.



22 Aug 2020 21:55:15
I’ve never said anything bad about tav or Goldson

Apart from maybe having a go if they have had a bad game And even then it must be very minimal

Goldson all round has been a Very steady player and so has tav

Alright some defensive errors from them both over time
But to be honest both of them are very professional
They barely miss a game and they play week in week out

If anything I admire them both for the hard work they must put in - in training and on the pitch

I know tav is not really a captain in such as the likes of captains of the past
But he’s definitely a role model to young and old players alike
Him and Goldson obviously keep themselves in very good shape to play as much as they both do over the amount of time they have been at Rangers
And I don’t think anyone could disagree with that KRi55

Might not be everyone’s cup of tea

But solid solid professionals and have my sincere gratitude for the service there giving Rangers since there time here mate -

Like I say both had mishaps and we’re all human
And we will come and have a go

But overall very professional guys - hats off to them both

Just would like to see a good settle team - and just get back to scoring goals and playing well like first half of last season

Think and hope we might get there soon enough

I just get frustrated too easily KRi55

And come when I’m raging At the result

But when I calm and collective like tonight 😂

I can also praise the players and manger too mate

All part of Rangers and Growing up in the fishbowl of glasgow

Doesn’t help my mates are from the dark side and there stupid texts come in when there winning titles etc

Grrrrrrrr 😂😂😂.



22 Aug 2020 20:31:09
Oh dear Kent didn't have a release clause does he?

Anyone know - if he does what is it?

Would be interesting to know

But to be honest I hope not

He has started the season on form in which is why we wanted him here in 1st place?



22 Aug 2020 21:00:44
Forget this post - lot of nonsense 👌.



22 Aug 2020 20:28:19
Roofe when asked in post match interview what SG said in halftime team talk and answered he cannot disclose that. Now that is professionalism and teamwork. Well done son.



22 Aug 2020 20:03:43
Anyway enough about Morelos from me just now 😄

How did the team play today were we looking hungry and aggressive in play?

We're we ever worried by killie as I missed the game today?



22 Aug 2020 20:10:39
2nd half we went two through the middle stig and we were much better. Killie never bothered us. 1st half we were the usual one through the middle and struggled but the 2nd half we were created a lot more. Kent was class👍.



22 Aug 2020 20:12:21
First half we were poor, much like last week. 2nd half we played much better but still should be scoring more. We try for pretty goals too often although lots more shots from distance today. Roofe will improve with fitness. Good to see Davis play.



22 Aug 2020 20:19:05
Played a lot of long balls first half, didn't really work. Everything was a bit slow.
Much better 2nd, Kent was a standout, Barker, jack, Davis were good. The new players looked good, roofe was unlucky not to score a header (hit the post) from a fantastic cross from barisic.
Killie didn't even have a strike on goal.



22 Aug 2020 20:26:12
Excellent sounds like we had a great 2nd half

Going too catch the highlights

How was itten did he look lively?


Heard roofe hit the post - sounds like he had a good game

And also good to hear Kent played great too with all the Leeds rumours flying around him
Good to know he can put too one side and obviously a player who wants to be here and play ell

Long may it continue

What ever tactics were deployed 2nd half when we played better wonder if that will give Gerrard food for thought and starting a game that way?



22 Aug 2020 20:29:59
I really like the look of itten. Looks like he's got bags of potential.



22 Aug 2020 20:34:46
Coldo your comment shows you know heehaw.
If u listen to SG he states that Itten wasn't asked to play wide rite, he was asked to be inside closer to roofe which would suggest we didn't play 1 through the middle.



22 Aug 2020 20:49:04
Itten and roofe were lively stig. Davis was brilliant aswell. I hope we stick with two through the middle👍.



22 Aug 2020 21:01:55
Thanks for reply guys 😚.



22 Aug 2020 21:13:30
Kri55, itten was played on the right because stevie G wanted him against the small Kilmarnock full back when barisic was swinging crosses in, that was the thinking behind it and the manager stated that. Coldo you and i know anyway that ryan kent is a class act pal, there's absolutely no doubt about that 👌.



22 Aug 2020 21:14:16
Kri55, first half we were 1 up top. Turns out you know hee haw otherwise you'd have seen the difference after HT. We were two different teams as he changed it a HT👍.



22 Aug 2020 21:25:26
Two throw the middle coldo you said itten was wide right earlier make yer mind up kid 👍.



22 Aug 2020 21:35:20
Thought Steve Davis looked more like himself and impressed with Itten.



22 Aug 2020 21:37:45
Listen to Gerrard's interview. they asked him to play as a false 9 closer to Roofe and wasn't asked to play wide right. But i suppose you all know better than what Gerrard asked of his players.



22 Aug 2020 21:47:39
To add to the above one big change to the tactics was Davis played a bit more advanced and not parallel to Jack and we tried a lot more balls over the top in behind the defence.
Killie offered nothing, but did not defend like Livi. They did try and come out a few times but nothing worried us.
Kri55 - I heard SG say that also but when you look at his positioning during the 1st half he was out on the right an awful lot, especially when the ball was on the right, obviously trying to link up play, I kept asking why he wasn't heading into the box when Tav or whoever had the ball in a decent position to cross, perhaps trying to hard. But definitely went through the middle 2nd half and looked more balanced.
Stig - Itten put in a decent shift but nothing really sticks out, he could maybe have read (anticipated) a few crosses a bit better to maybe get a chance but never. Strangely I don't remember him winning a header in the box but could be wrong.
Barker was surprisingly decent, may have earned himself a starting Jersey again.
Can't really add much else. A comfy 3 points. The 2nd half formation should be our setup for next game.



22 Aug 2020 21:59:58
Thanks jctheger

Just got kids down to sleep - opened a beer and going to go catch the highlights on the net.



22 Aug 2020 22:34:22
KJA9 if you read what I said, itten right 1st half, through the middle 2nd half. 1 up top 1st half, 2 up top 2nd half. 👍.



22 Aug 2020 20:00:14
Everyone is making assumptions about Morelos

Listen to gerrard he tells the story the way it is

He has been disappointed with him this week
Gerrards words not mine

Head has been tuned

Gerrard said publicly- he can only pick players who want to win points for the team and Morelos made it easy for him not to pick him

Take out of that what you will

But it was all Gerrards words

Think Morelos is finished

Can only blame himself

Tierney 25 million to Arsenal never let it get to his head before he moved clubs and left the club with Everyone at the club wishing him well

He acted like most professional young players should

See ya Morelos

Rangers will move on from you and YOU were never bigger than the club fact!



22 Aug 2020 20:08:48
Not everyone wished him well. Interview this week he highlighted abuse he had taken.



22 Aug 2020 20:10:38
He also said he hopes Roofe and Itten can form a partnership this season - that speaks volumes.



22 Aug 2020 20:21:21
Point I making snell mate is that he didn’t let it get to his head and never dropped performances because he was moving clubs etc if you catch what I Mean mate

Morelos just can’t deal with certain situations very well
Maybe it’s because he doesn’t want to be here
Maybe because he’s in a strange country and never really learned our language (speaks volumes) if that true

Just let him go all this palava around one player unsettling then team and his obviously unsettling Gerrard that much he couldn’t even put him on the bench today
All that points to a very unsettled player
We don’t need it anymore

Let him go

And let’s get some balance and harmony back into the team and concentrate on winning trophy’s

I really wouldn’t be surprised if behind closed doors there will be a sigh of relief when he goes from management and fellow players
It’s all just a big fuss around him now and as I say we really don’t need ttt in such an important season
For the players who are here to play and for management who is trying to win there 1st trophy in 3 years

A lot riding this season and unhappy Morelos is not needed.



22 Aug 2020 20:24:30
If anyone doesn't perform in training or isn't focused they get dropped. Good that should happen at every club.
I've said it plenty of times this summer I think Morelos is away in this transfer window.



22 Aug 2020 20:38:00
Aye fair enough stig, I was just being pedantic because it sounded the Celtic fans had done something right 🤣.



22 Aug 2020 20:50:36
If there is still a 16 million offer for Morelos still on the table from Lille we should take their hand off and order him a taxi before they change their mind He believes his own hype and is nothing but trouble. I cannot see anyone paying 20 million for him. He had one good spell in Europe where he looked a player. Most of his goals came against lesser teams in the SPL. His record in big games and against Celtic is shocking. Get rid ASAP and take the 16 million on the table if its still there.



22 Aug 2020 21:34:26
Why on earth are Rangers wrong to have a price they want before letting Morelos go. Celtic got 25 million for an injured left back so I believe Rangers are correct to wait for the price they want. theEPL is not even started yet and the transfer window does not close until October.



22 Aug 2020 22:02:58
Bigrabj

Don’t think I mentioned Rangers we’re wrong dude?
About price tag etc

Just the whole polava and hope it can be sorted sooner than later mate 👍.



22 Aug 2020 19:33:28
Gerrard not happy with morelos effort and attitude. 👍.



22 Aug 2020 19:42:14
Gerrard is absaloutey correct to drop Morelos! He thinks he’s bigger than Rangers, nothing short of a selfish petty little boy it will be a blessing him leaving! That’s a guarantee, can you imagine Morelos in a Walter Smith team 😂 he would be bombed out straight away.



22 Aug 2020 20:27:57
Pity it’s turned out like this, we might be lucky to get 12 million After dropping him and reporting his bad attitude. Wish we accepted that bidFrom Lille last week now.



22 Aug 2020 19:30:36
If anyone is doing a fantasy football team (English league) iv started a league just for the rumours page K48rth is the code to join.



22 Aug 2020 20:01:40
Kl I’ll have a look bud 😁.



22 Aug 2020 19:28:01
Good 3 points today but we really need to keep putting as many points on the board as we can cause I'm watching the Dundee Utd v Celtic game and Celtic are really not that impressive at the moment - yeah they'll probably scrape a win but they really are nothing special just now however will probably improve further into the season so we need to stay ahead and keep the pressure on them and see how they handle chasing us for a change.



22 Aug 2020 19:25:46
Really pissed off that some how I've been banned for pointing out that the edd let through a terrorist moniker. Cheers.



{Ed001's Note - you haven't been banned. I don't know how that pic got through, as all avatars and profiles are meant to go through me for approval and I have deleted hundreds of similar pics and banned profiles for repeatedly trying to post up that crap. I can only imagine Ed033 decided to allow it and didn't realise what it was. He was informed and it should be deleted but I actually was thankful to you for letting me know it was there and have no intention of banning you for it. That is if you are referring to last month and not something I am not aware of since then?}

22 Aug 2020 19:40:37
Keep up good work Ed’s. We don’t want that stuff on here.



{Ed001's Note - it's TJBB you have to thank. The way we editors see the sites does not show things like avatars and profile pictures, so we would never have known without him pointing it out.}

22 Aug 2020 20:09:48
Who was this like? Can't say I have ever noticed any of that crap on here.



22 Aug 2020 20:36:19
Well done tjbb I also comment after I saw his post Ed.
Some times self policing is needed, especially if u guys can’t see it.



{Ed001's Note - defo John, even if we could see it, most of the editors would have no idea what it was about.}

22 Aug 2020 19:00:28
I thought the two new guys also showed up pretty well today, forgot to say that in my post recently.



22 Aug 2020 18:18:04
More positive performance today from players and management. Barker gets it sore on here but he and Kent played well today. Another clean sheet 👍.



22 Aug 2020 18:33:49
Sick saying it bgate w, RYAN KENT IS THE BEST PLAYER WE HAVE AT GLASGOW RANGERS! 👌.



22 Aug 2020 18:38:31
Agree mate both Kent n barker stood out today. Barisic again played well. Good to see players popping shots from outside box as well.



22 Aug 2020 18:48:18
SGL three weeks ago u said Barisic was best player at Rangers.



22 Aug 2020 18:52:05
Bgate Barker needs to do it week in week out. Not once a year.



22 Aug 2020 18:54:20
The difference in the energy shown by the players was evident today, I totally agree regards Kent and Barker, the goalie impresses me with his calmness and distribution, and, I got what I asked for today, more shooting from distance we came close on a few occasions, very happy Gers fan tonight, 5 clean sheets on the bounce.



22 Aug 2020 19:01:00
Barasic is head and shoulders best player at rangers. Only player with potential to be truly world class in his position.



22 Aug 2020 19:14:44
Mclaughlan is very impressive irvger👍.



22 Aug 2020 21:30:29
SGL who is the best player barasic or Kent because you change yer mind week in week out.



23 Aug 2020 11:37:53
SGL you have left the capitals on 😂😂. Ryan Kent played well yesterday. Hopefully he can keep it going as long as he’s in a Rangers strip. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇦🇺⚽️😎👍.



22 Aug 2020 18:00:56
So what's the hampden roar with Morelos ? Very strange he didn't make the squad. is he sold? Has there been a fall out. There has to be some reason he's dropped.



22 Aug 2020 18:10:43
Have you seen him play?



22 Aug 2020 18:14:34
Drapit.



22 Aug 2020 18:25:09
Blue would, yes I've seen him play, 2 goals with 2 assists.



22 Aug 2020 18:37:03
I think we just have to sell alfredo morelos, even if we don't get near what we're looking for! We can't continually have this sideshow regarding morelos. I would honestly sell him for anything between £12-£15million, if they can still get that. I've always been a big fan of alfredo, but his time is up at rangers!



22 Aug 2020 18:39:04
Probs on a plane to France. perhaps Lille were insistent he didn't play as part of the deal.? Just surprising.



22 Aug 2020 18:49:24
We turned down 16 last week, why would we sell for 12.



22 Aug 2020 18:56:23
He's been rotten in the past few games, I agree, we should get a decent fee, and maybe he'll learn that the grass isn't always greener away from Rangers.



22 Aug 2020 18:57:31
No we didn't John. 100% agree coop👍.



22 Aug 2020 19:04:24
Yes we did coldo 😉.



22 Aug 2020 19:12:38
SGL stop it for godsake, sell him for what we can get even if its 12m. Rangers are not here to sell people on the cheap. he has a long contract, if he doesn't sort his head he sits out until he does. if he sits out and not in the window so won't get offers. its all down to him. get your head sorted and start to show the fans and other teams what you are capable of. simples as that.



22 Aug 2020 19:14:10
Gerrard explained the Morelos situ today
Have a listen.



22 Aug 2020 19:22:34
So you want to waste money we can't afford by paying him a huge wage to sit in the stand and lower moral in the changing room geesa. Nonsense, Get rid asap and if we can get 16mil great👍.



22 Aug 2020 19:42:36
Mr grumpy coldo attempts to be the clown on here. I’m actually close to moving on.



22 Aug 2020 19:57:40
Aye he's hard going sometimes John.



22 Aug 2020 20:35:42
We might get rid on the last day to England for the 16 + we kb’d last week. but if I’m a buying club I’m going to lowball for him in the knowledge rangers want rid and there are issues behind the scenes.



22 Aug 2020 17:40:06
I'll give credit where credit is due, well done SG. We tried a lot more balls over the top and changed the players around at half time and got the result we needed. Still room for improvement with the final ball and passing but heading in the right direction.
Whilst I am not a fan of the 2 CM's I did notice Davis was more advanced than Jack and trying forward passes, is this something SG has also tweaked or is it just the way Davis decided to play, surely he follows what the manager says. Barker aslo looked decent.
My main sour note from today was Tav, I thought he was poor. A few terrible first touches and his crossing was awful, this is not just a one off, he seems to be in a really poor patch at the moment but with no real threat to his position ( not seen enough of Patterson to say he is good enough to start ) he knows he is always going to start.
Apart from that, happy with the 3 points and hope SG continues to tweak the players and tactics when required.



22 Aug 2020 17:57:31
Jctheger, great to get 3 points. Regarding Tav, he's been mince for a long while and is certainly guilty of giving away possession. He cannot cross a ball, he is the weakest link. I wish some team would come in for him.



22 Aug 2020 18:16:08
It’s ironic that we’ve beaten the defensive record and Tav has played every game.



22 Aug 2020 18:21:06
Lol Jaws that's true, but I think defensively he has improved a bit, however let's be honest the defence hasn't had an awful lot to do. What they have had to do they have dealt with it comfortably.
The Stuck - I'm happy to keep him but be needs proper competition for when he is not playing well, I am also in the group that thinks he isn't captain material but not going over that again.



22 Aug 2020 18:23:12
Correct Jaws👍
At one time, everyone of the back 4 ( and some still do ) have been given stick on here about their abilities as a Rangers player.



22 Aug 2020 18:28:29
Sad to say but some clearly have an agenda against Tav that has nothing to do with his performances.

He is not the best RB in the world and does throw in the odd poor cross but he also puts is some fantastic crosses.

He is up and down the line constantly and never shirks from the ball.

He is trusted 100% by our manager both are No 1 RB and captain of our club and yet some “fans” can’t help but call him out as the weakest link!

I think you know that SG was referring to you in his presser when he said that his thoughts were based on reality when compared with some fans views.



22 Aug 2020 18:42:19
I think it is beyond harsh to say Tav can't cross, some of his deliveries are top class, some don't come off.



22 Aug 2020 18:54:49
Wasn’t that another clean sheet and still 0 goals conceded in our 5 league games and 2 assists from our full backs today?! Yet still some on here saying Tav was mince, can’t cross a ball etc etc. it’s now beyond embarrassing the abuse our captain receives. Compare his assists to other FB’s and compare our defensive record.



22 Aug 2020 18:58:10
I actually thought that Tav put in a decent shift today, let's just be happy with another good 3 points and another clean sheet.



22 Aug 2020 20:04:43
I get what a lot of you are saying and obviously it is subjective, just my opinion on what I'm seeing during the games.
Fair point Scotty123, Tav did also get an assist today but it was a 3 yard pass but an assist none the less, my gripe is the quality and consistency of his crosses from out wide. I don't think he is a poor player, just having a really poor to average run of form of late whereas the Tav of old would be bombing down that line and whipping in excellent crosses moreso than less.
He has the capability but isn't performing just now hence why I think proper competition for his position would be welcomed.



22 Aug 2020 17:31:02
Jimmy bell had too many cups of coofee.



22 Aug 2020 17:24:13
Good result, decent performance. Huffed and puffed a bit but lots to look forward too.



22 Aug 2020 17:12:20
Pre season we Played 5 won 5 scored 12 conceded 1. Season started we played 5 won 4 drew 1 scored 9 conceded zero. Top of the league with best defensive record in 91 years. And some are claiming Gerrard needs to go and that we're hopeless? What more can the man/ team do to make some people happy?



22 Aug 2020 17:33:02
Adapt instead of being stubborn with tactics and formation👍.



22 Aug 2020 18:00:52
True coldo mate I also want to see 442 in most domestic games and he is too slow to make changes when it isn’t working But the results are there and we’re a hell of a lot better than what he walked into. As long as we aren’t conceding and are winning games, we can’t complain.



22 Aug 2020 17:06:44
Anyone watching Sky Sports? That big halfwhit Hartson couldn't even bring himself to say Rangers. He used the phrase "the other team".



22 Aug 2020 18:19:59
Hartsons always been a bit of a f*nny.



22 Aug 2020 19:17:31
ever since we turned him down, which to be fair was a mistake, but we had a lot of flack around that time signing sick players and paying good money to sit on the by line. but agree he is a fanny.



Jack Grealish

22 Aug 2020 17:29:45
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new player profile about, Jack Grealish



22 Aug 2020 17:00:34
Ryan Kent was awesome today and should have been named man of the match.



22 Aug 2020 17:05:52
Barker also very good, some on here should feel shame given the criticism dished out to the boy.



22 Aug 2020 17:14:40
Never seen him
So eager to get on the ball and drive. Wish everyone showed that enthusiasm tbh. Barker done ok. Helander actually showed some pace today which surprised me. We came out 2nd half and played much more positive. Rb needs looked at man. Tav is stealing a shirt Even the shot he took in which Kent scored from was going wide. Change needed. 3 points none the less 🔴⚪️🔵.



22 Aug 2020 17:15:41
Class highland. 2 cm 2 st is the way forward👍.



22 Aug 2020 17:18:23
I thought Barker was just as good as Kent and was unlucky not to have been given Man of the match.



22 Aug 2020 17:30:02
No he wasn’t had a better 2nd half but he certainly wasn’t awesome.



22 Aug 2020 17:31:01
Barker after all pelter he's taken also 1 of better performers.



22 Aug 2020 17:41:01
12th man, best defensive record in 91 years and you say we need a new RB?



22 Aug 2020 17:42:40
I’ve said on here time after time Tavernier is an absolute rubbish defender and rubbish captain it seems most people can see it except gerrard, go and spend some money on a decent right back and get that dumpling out.



22 Aug 2020 18:25:46
Why waste money on a RB when the defence is the strongest part of the team right now🤔🤦‍♂️.



22 Aug 2020 20:44:38
Tav does what the management team ask him to do, he’s a a great attacking full back and his assists stats are incredible. True he makes errors and could be better defensively but if he was any better at the things he does wrong he’d prob be off by now to the epl. I’d like a better rub but who and from where and how much would that cost? And would said player offer the same going forward as tav? As that’s a big part of the way we play. Thought we might have went in for that young boy from Leicester but that ship seems to ha e sailed. It’s not tav fault he’s the captain and he’s definitely not as bad as some make him out.



22 Aug 2020 17:00:33
What a difference in our play when itten went through the middle and roofe in there with him. We had players in the box that we could aim crosses at instead of that daft tippy tappy going nowhere crap. Two up top is the way to go.

Kent and davis were class. Thought barker was very good.

If we can get anywhere near 16mil for fredo, take it. 👍.



22 Aug 2020 17:12:17
Totally agree with thus post. Why do we continually play guys out of position. Itten was bought as a centre forward but we put him out on the wing. Why? . We play him in his correct position and it clicks and we look a lot better. Mr G always states we learn and move on so for once lusten learn and play Itten in his correct position with two up top.



22 Aug 2020 17:15:43
Disagree with Davis. Thought he was average. Went back the way a lot.



22 Aug 2020 17:17:03
Fredo was not at stadium today, I think we will get 18 for him before end of international break.



22 Aug 2020 17:28:48
Wasn't two up top though?



22 Aug 2020 17:31:05
Performance the day was rotten but 3
Points is all that mattered.



22 Aug 2020 17:31:12
Went 2 through the middle and it paid dividends after 5 mins! Surely the way to go when teams sit in. Only issue it will give him is what does he do with Aribo when he comes back but I much preferred us with Itten and Roofe through the middle.



22 Aug 2020 18:34:08
What a load of nonsense Mr Thumbs Up🤦‍♂️
The same frailties were there in the first half playing 4-3-2-1 and 4-4-2 as they were playing Gerrard’s preferred 4-3-3!
We still struggled to break down Killie, just like we did Livi last week.
The difference was we turned up this week.
Nothing to do with tactics🤦‍♂️
Did we score more goals than in any other game? No.
Did we dominate possession again? Yes!
It looked good because we constantly pumped balls forward but the quality was horrendous first half.
But you’ll try and spin it you were right along.
Time will tell.
I prefer to praise the manager for having the courage to drop Morelos and go with the 2 new strikers.



22 Aug 2020 19:01:02
We went two through the middle in the 2nd half and it worked great. We played 1 up top 1st half with itten wide and we struggled👍.



22 Aug 2020 19:24:04
hardly worked great coldo, did itten get a goal or an assist or am i missing something.

like it or not 4231 is the correct formation. we aren't keeping it wide enough and putting good enough balls into the box. shooting from outside the box doesn't work either unless you hope a few flukes will win the game.

the team got a rocket at half time and a couple of long balls did mix it up but none of the goals came from that tactic.



22 Aug 2020 16:59:08
Thought Barker was good today maybe Gerrard playing him without fans to Build up confidence if there's a crowd he can't touch ball without groans!
Roofe looks like he needs a few more games but did far better in 2nd half 3 points were vital today
Come on the Scumdee Utd!



22 Aug 2020 17:18:06
Its nothing to do with fans. 2 cm 2 st creates much more space for wide players, we saw it today. Its tactical, always was👍.



22 Aug 2020 18:34:40
Load of nonsense as usual Coldo. 🤦‍♂️.



22 Aug 2020 19:01:43
No its not🤫👍.



22 Aug 2020 16:55:16
Totally in control, the suit tie and brogues could have been kept on. Good performance and dominated from first minute. Roofe and Itten got good minutes into the legs and Kent clearly not affected by Leeds bid. I'm sure some of the doom and gloom brigade in here will have found fault in something about today's performance. Clean sheet again ❤️🤍💙 👏🏻👏🏻.



22 Aug 2020 17:00:12
Any win will always do for me. Better second half. Strolled it tbh. Before the doom and gloomets come on, remember guys, we won 2 nil!



22 Aug 2020 17:03:35
We should always be looking for improvement Scott. Good 3 points, good to SG change things at half time with big Itten through the middle rather than out of the right of the attack. Final ball was poor apart from the cross for the 1st goal and our passing over the top was pretty poor but as I said something for us to work on. Tav's crossing is awful but with no real competition for a place ( haven't seen enough of Patterson) then he knows his place is guaranteed. Thought Kent was MOTM and Barker had a decent game. Another clean sheet, we carry on to the next match.



22 Aug 2020 17:07:50
Much better performance in second half, if I had any criticism we were a bit slow in the first half. Borna not quite on it with his crosses today, but we all have off days. Burkey is obviously their get out man, but he didn't really get a look in today. Its ridiculous how bigfoot goes down at the slightest touch, embarrassing for a man that size. let's hope we get a bonus on Tayside this evening!



22 Aug 2020 20:46:43
Borna had a great cross which Roofe hit post with scotty dog.



22 Aug 2020 16:13:25
Kemar Roffe wtf 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇦🇺⚽️😎👍.



22 Aug 2020 16:24:22
Yeah, actually just noticed. Do Castore do the printing too? Just gives the Tim's another thing to talk about.



22 Aug 2020 16:40:15
Jimmy bell does them mate he must a been hungover 😂.



22 Aug 2020 17:00:54
Jimmy didnae look best pleased did he?



22 Aug 2020 17:17:19
That’s jimmys Christmas face 😂😂.



22 Aug 2020 17:21:11
People on here slag Castore re Roofe jersey.
U see him taking it off laughing, with Defoe. It’s no big deal. Some people need any excuse to slag our club.



23 Aug 2020 09:36:55
John25 nobody is slagging the club. But Kemars surname only has 5 letters. How the f##k can someone get that wrong 🤷‍♂️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇦🇺⚽️😎👍.



22 Aug 2020 16:13:05
Is one tripping or has someone made an absolute James Blunt of Roofe’s jersey? 🤣

#ROFFE.



22 Aug 2020 16:16:05
Total embarrassment. just imagine the $hite coming our way about Castore etc. honestly watf.



22 Aug 2020 16:24:41
Jimmy bell does the names on shirts MAdchelskis mate 👍🏻.



22 Aug 2020 16:34:50
1-0 up playing ok dominating the game and we’ve posts about a spelling mistake on Roofes shirt! heehawv to do with Castore blame Jimmy Bell.



22 Aug 2020 16:42:28
Lighten up. I'm well getting ROFFE on my new top.



22 Aug 2020 16:58:03
@blue blue sea

Its slap dash, an indication of the approach and culture within the club. Settle down. Good result in the end and should have been more.



22 Aug 2020 17:12:45
Madchelkis a spelling mistake on a shirt is indicative of a culture issue in the club! Never ever heard as much Lilian Gish it’s a wee mistake jimmy bell made you saw players laughing about it when he went off but you’re making out it part of some underlying issue at the club unbelievable!



22 Aug 2020 17:18:19
MAdchelskis the approach and culture is greatly inproved. Weapon of a statement hahaha.



22 Aug 2020 17:45:35
So it's acceptable to have players on the park with their names not spelt correctly? It's not a minor thing, it shows us up!



22 Aug 2020 18:21:26
Mad not the first and won’t be the last. Mb players should check top before they put it on.



22 Aug 2020 18:24:22
Of course it's a minor thing! Behave.



22 Aug 2020 16:00:45
We should just punt Alfie for what's on the table (16m) and try get Brewster in for a loan fee of a few million for the season. Pay the money for lundstrum to partner jack and Aribo, and pay the going rate for a quality right winger. Whoever that may be. And put the change in the bank. That's a better squad harmony and tbh a better quality of options all round. IMO Alfie better than Brewster atm but I think Brewster has better head on his shoulders and will have a better career. I'd rather Brewster than Alfie atm as el buffalo last season won't be back this season.



22 Aug 2020 17:19:58
A lot of teams in for Brewster. He’s a wee tank for his age like buff. Would be a great addition though I can’t see us buying another striker. Think he expects Stewart to maybe chip in as a striker.



22 Aug 2020 17:32:26
No chance we are getting Brewster.



22 Aug 2020 17:55:02
Brewster is going on loan to perm side or staying at Liverpool, he excelled on loan at Swansea and showed he’s going to make it at the top.



22 Aug 2020 18:03:11
No harm in asking and if we back it up with hard cash and European football then you just never know.



22 Aug 2020 15:55:28
Are we actually trying to stop 10iar? If so, someone better remind the team. Is Roofe playing? I know he's not had much match time but looks lost. Kent and to be fair, Barker are at least trying. I just have the fear we're dropping another 2 points.



22 Aug 2020 15:58:42
Drop another 2 or 3 them let's get a new manager b4 its too late.



22 Aug 2020 15:59:37
Well summed up struth.



22 Aug 2020 16:02:56
Playing like coos mate. Kent the only player that look like he’s showed up. I don’t get it either. We need better and more Much more.



22 Aug 2020 16:04:21
Paul86 - 45 mins to save his managerial career.



22 Aug 2020 16:43:01
Well that sums up what some on here call support?



22 Aug 2020 16:59:14
yup and the problem would have been if they were in Ibrox we would likely have lost the game, as by 50 minutes the boos would be ringing round the stadium.



22 Aug 2020 17:04:50
I think the term is "egg on face". Roofe mom as well. Thought the centrebacks strolled it and was delighted with Kent and Barker. Cheer up guys, we are 9 clear and still haven't conceded.



22 Aug 2020 17:05:04
The comments above are embarrassing from so called supporters. “ 45 mins to save his managerial career “

5 games played - 4 Wins, 1 draw and 0 losses. 13 points from a possible 15.
9 goals scored and 0 conceded

Get a grip and get behind the team.



22 Aug 2020 17:20:10
Barrowlad agreed. Unreal.



22 Aug 2020 17:28:08
45 minutes to save his managerial career? Deary me
Top of the league, no goals against, killie didn't have a shot on target in the game.
It's been a good start to the season.



22 Aug 2020 15:54:20
Hopefully the 2nd half gets better as that was as good as watching paint dry.

No one with pass marks yet.



22 Aug 2020 15:57:55
Gerrard said they had a good positive week of training. What did they actually do because it certainly isn't showing today on the pitch. Killie will take great confidence from the first half.



22 Aug 2020 17:05:31
Ah the perils of posting at half time! 😂😂.



22 Aug 2020 17:33:50
Seeker unless you can read it says hopefully we get better 🤡 Which we did but we were still rotten.



22 Aug 2020 19:28:47
Backhanded complinents from you as usual 🤡.



22 Aug 2020 15:51:38
Is Roofe playing? Tav still struggling to pass to someone with the same colour of shirt on. Difficult to watch.



22 Aug 2020 15:55:02
The guy is torture. He’s everything that’s wrong with our team. Said it for 2 years now. How he gets away with it is beyond me. Davis as well. I could get my 12 year old son to play in that team and just play the ball back. Not good enough rangers.



22 Aug 2020 15:55:16
Struggles playing for us at the best of times, baffling why he is the captain.



22 Aug 2020 15:57:19
Tav is poor as is Jack Roofe and Itten hate to say it but this is the type of gameMorelos would be good in,



22 Aug 2020 15:59:27
said it simce championship. he's honkin.



22 Aug 2020 16:01:08
Why does tav always get the blame don’t think he’s to blame.



22 Aug 2020 16:57:48
Tavs played well today.



22 Aug 2020 17:06:25
😂😂😂😂😂🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧.



22 Aug 2020 15:45:54
Gerrard has said he's disappointed Morelos has had his head turned and not himself and not in the right frame of mind

Guys some in here will have backed the player to the hilt

But we have really seen his form drop since January this year

And if even now Gerrard has dropped him and saying out loud the player is not himself it's clear Morelos wants to be anywhere but rangers

Lille is not the biggest club and not the league the player stated himself he wanted to play
It was England

So why now the French league

It's clear he's not happy in Scotland

The club and Gerrard have backed him through all his troubles

But he's not leaving the club on high in my opinion some might differ

He's scored a lot of goals but he's not walking away a winner

And he's not walking away with his head held high by letting himself and the club and team down but the lacklustre performances we have all see through 2020.



22 Aug 2020 15:51:38
He hasn’t had the service since jan the same as the two up top ain’t getting the service today.



22 Aug 2020 15:51:55
Mate a posted this morning more or less word for word you wrote. Can’t find it.



22 Aug 2020 16:03:52
A fat out of sorts Morelos is still better than Itten and Roofe put together. Hopefully they come good but initial signs aren't promising.



22 Aug 2020 16:25:39
I’m missing the game working

Comments on here not great

But atleast we’re winning today so far.



22 Aug 2020 17:02:01
well i tell you guys, what top player would want to play in this league. playing teams with 10 men in the box every week instead of being able to play decent flowing football. its horrendous to watch and must be arduous to play.



22 Aug 2020 15:42:16
What the refs beef vs Itten? Yellow card and imaginary fouls.

Barker and Kent looking good. Where's Roofe though.

Tav gives up a lot space in defending. Kilmarnock can move that ball up their left all day long.



22 Aug 2020 15:46:24
Roofe totally anonymous heard his name about twice waste of a shirt so far I can appreciate he’s not 100% fit but we can’t afford passengers today, we need a win today absolutely must win.



22 Aug 2020 15:52:52
Barker and Kent looking good Kent had one shot that was it done nothing else and Barker might as well watch the game with me.



22 Aug 2020 15:55:20
Agree, Roofe is missing. Was happy to see Itten start but why is out on the right? Controlling the game well but final ball is awful. Get Itten through the middle and get balls in from wide area's.



22 Aug 2020 16:08:35
It’s a 90 min game can’t judge on 1 half Roofe will score today.



22 Aug 2020 17:11:41
Bloody hell, I'm not Barker's biggest fan but I thought he and Kent were very good.



22 Aug 2020 14:42:30
Have I missed something no Morelos in the squad today?

Roofe and itten both playing and no Kamarra?



22 Aug 2020 14:54:52
Kamara on the bench. No Morelos tho.



22 Aug 2020 14:09:42
Looks like 442, kent and barker wide roofe and itten through the middle🤔👍.



22 Aug 2020 14:18:20
4231 with itten up top. I'd rather see 442.



22 Aug 2020 14:20:22
433 but as always the players have the freedom to adapt to the game! Something you fail to realise? Roofe on the right, Kent left, hagi central and itten up front!



22 Aug 2020 14:20:45
Although i expect to win today, it just got harder with the inclusion of Davis and Barker in the starting line up,

SG is losing the plot.



22 Aug 2020 14:21:35
SG been reading your posts again coldo? 😉.



22 Aug 2020 14:23:02
Really think JJ would be ideal for these games, bit of unpredictability in the wing.



22 Aug 2020 14:27:15
OK maybe not hagi through the middle yet lol.



22 Aug 2020 14:33:03
Hagi isn't playing barrowlad, something you don't realise🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤡😂👍

Grumpy🤞😉👍.



22 Aug 2020 14:35:41
With the exception of Barker that is a decent attacking line up. Still struggling to see what he brings but if he scores a hat trick today I will forgive him! I have a feeling that Rangers will accept the increased bid from Lisle if it materialises. I just hope we use the funds to bring in a quality box to box midfield player and a quality right winger. That is all that is missing for for me.



22 Aug 2020 14:41:50
Aye, BlueWouldDo, predictably offering hee haw!



22 Aug 2020 14:44:05
Why is Morelos not in the squad today at all?

Have I missed something?



22 Aug 2020 14:47:18
He doesn't need as much space as our other wingers.



22 Aug 2020 15:02:45
The stig apparently Lille have made another bid but as the clueless one coldo if it’s true 1st.



22 Aug 2020 15:22:56
Ah right

Wow if true then must be serious bid for him to be missing altogether today KJ 😬.



22 Aug 2020 15:46:19
We will win absolutely hee haw with tav in our squad. He’s got away with it for far too long. He’s played a ball to Kent. That’s it. Every other time he’s been very sloppy as per. I don’t understand how he is in that team. 🤷‍♂️.



22 Aug 2020 15:53:37
Coldo in my defence early team sheet on newsnow had him playing!



22 Aug 2020 14:07:20
Starting XI:
McLaughlin,
Tavernier, Goldson, Helander, Barisic,
Jack, Davis,
Barker, Kent, Roofe,
Itten.



22 Aug 2020 14:13:35
Some big calls there, could be Roofe up top in a 442?!



22 Aug 2020 14:04:20
Just saw the lineup. No Morelos in squad and looks suspiciously like a 442 formation, bold!



22 Aug 2020 14:19:42
How it should be at ibrox wrap it up by the hour mark and cruise the last half hour. Surprised Morelos didn’t even make the bench tho.



22 Aug 2020 13:55:16
Why does that guy coldo think he knows that there has been no 16million bid for morelos although Gerrard and the lille president said there was?



22 Aug 2020 14:04:39
Why would we reject 16mil and then not even include him in the squad today🤔👍.



22 Aug 2020 14:11:59
Why would the Lille president Lie🤔👍🏻.



22 Aug 2020 14:17:58
To unrest morelos g4rry🤔👍.



22 Aug 2020 14:20:33
Gaffers said it! Press have reported it! Lille president confirmed it! But he knows better lol.



22 Aug 2020 13:52:09
There u go no Alf at all, Barker starts as does Itten and Roofe.



22 Aug 2020 14:21:05
Crazy Morelos isn’t even on the bench! What could it mean?



22 Aug 2020 14:24:29
All the Morelos hatters will be loving it if he’s away he will be sorely missed.



22 Aug 2020 14:37:32
Yeah, those horrible Morelos hatters Gersman, failing to praise a player who doesn't give a hoot about Rangers.



22 Aug 2020 14:40:15
I'm a big fan of Morelos but £16m is close to the 20m Euros we wanted and perhaps Gerrard has decided that the money can be better used to bring in a much needed box to box midfield player and a quality right winger.



22 Aug 2020 15:04:54
Bb the money will be wasted going by SG signing record.



22 Aug 2020 15:16:33
Nice positive post kja9 👍.



22 Aug 2020 15:42:35
Geromino Yeah the haters he will be missed he’s been great for us and going by the game the now he’s missed already.



22 Aug 2020 11:51:50
hope we don't have 2 un happy players now with kent and morelos prob would be on at least double if not treble wages if they moved.



22 Aug 2020 12:56:59
Kent is more than happy to stay as it stands, he was sick of being a journeyman and wanted to settle somewhere when he came to us. Morelos well he can go as soon as price is agreed with another side, he’s well off the pace.



22 Aug 2020 13:11:41
Kent partner is Glaswegian, she would not move last year, hence on off the reason he signed for us. Mb she will keep him up here longer.



22 Aug 2020 13:36:28
Coully you can’t really say kent was a journey man that’s ridiculous.



22 Aug 2020 13:44:38
Journeyman maybe not but he had 5 loans in 4 years and said he wanted to settle at a club as part of why he signed rather than another loan. Seems happy here and playing every week which I doubt he would get with Leeds in EPL.



22 Aug 2020 10:43:47
With regards to Morelos and the lille bid. The guy has made it abundantly clear that he wants to go. I think not selling him could backfire big time for us. An unhappy player in the team is fraught with all sorts of dangers. Take the sizable fee and spend it wisely on areas of the team that need strengthening.



22 Aug 2020 11:08:33
I love Morelos. But if he doesn't produce the goods he won't be in the team now that we have signed 2 other strikers. 👍.



22 Aug 2020 11:54:56
Myblueheaven that's exactly why we never rejected that 16mil bid👍.



22 Aug 2020 12:27:36
Coldo give up. Unless Sg and Lille director are liars u r wrong.
U r becoming very boring, it’s about pushing for extra couple of million.
Just read one your posts after Porto game u say we should get 25 million for Alf.



22 Aug 2020 12:28:04
Bloody hell coldo 😁 I thought after getting called out for talking nonsense a couple of days ago, with regards to Lille bidding for Morelos or not.
They had😉
Let it go, we can all make mistakes! 😉.



22 Aug 2020 13:06:03
John he is a shadow of the player that played porto. Your point is irrelevant👍

I'm trying to let it go grumpy🤷‍♂️😉👍.



22 Aug 2020 13:15:00
He can't run the length of himself, can't believe some still want to keep him. Rotten technique and attitude.



22 Aug 2020 13:37:49
Blue you talk crap we all know you hate Morelos or even everything rangers.



22 Aug 2020 13:49:30
Quit the negative Morelos nonsense. Morelos has grumpy face when the team isn't winning and he's being kicked about but even then he still works his socks off. Seems fit especially considering we are what 5 games into season so nobody is fully sharp. Aye his form has dropped but talent never goes. If he was as bad as people make out Lille wouldn't even be interested.



22 Aug 2020 14:00:08
Coldo May be irrelevant just like yours are.



22 Aug 2020 14:01:52
Coldo technically isn’t wrong as the reported bid for Morelos was a fee reaching 16M. Apparently it was closer to 10M with various different performance related add ons. i believe we are asking for 15M straight payment with fewer and lesser add ons to the deal.



22 Aug 2020 14:14:17
Scotty gets it👍



22 Aug 2020 14:17:31
More garbage accusations I see. Think some on here like the player more than the club.



22 Aug 2020 14:26:50
Scotty you don’t know this unless you where involved in the negotiations which I doubt you where.



22 Aug 2020 14:39:02
Am sorry but coldo claimed 2 days ago. " Lille never made a bid" it's on page 7 of rangers banter. No mention of Lille did bid but it wasn't £16m🤔
None of us know how Lille's bid was structured.
Lille's president, Lopez did say though "we have bid £16m. He's obviously a good player"🤔.



22 Aug 2020 14:45:50
Looks like Scotty123 is holding the ladder for you to get out of that hole you keep on digging, Mr Thumbs Up👍😜👀.



22 Aug 2020 15:50:26
Hahahaha clearly I wasn’t involved in the negotiations. I was reliably informed that the bid was close to 10M and a new bid is anticipated.



22 Aug 2020 16:04:41
Yes sure you have been reliably informed.



22 Aug 2020 10:37:56
The gaffer says alfie"does
Not look himself" with a fresh bid from Lille on the cards. Surely we can't start him. For me I do not get the ethics in the move other then money. They are no where near the size of as a club or in reputation. The league is similar to our where it's normally a two horse race. Why would you move to a smaller club other then money. We need short fillers for the badge not what wages they are picking up. I get it he wants to move on and prove himself and better himself but for me he's going the wrong with abt it. 🤷‍♂️.



22 Aug 2020 11:39:04
I am sure he will get a lot more money there but he said from day 1 his aim was to play in one of the top 5 leagues. Rangers may have a bigger history but now Lille are a huge team in a top league, play regularly in Europe and against a much higher standard of players. Any player with ambition would want that move if it was offered except maybe someone with a lifelong connection to Rangers. He has done all he can in Scotland so I wish him well and will follow his career and support him when he leaves.



22 Aug 2020 11:40:22
Historically they are a smaller club but play in a bigger and more attractive league, like you said can offer more money and have also been a pathway to players then moving on to the elite level- Hazard, Pepe, Osimhen and that centre half they are set to flog who's name escapes me. I can see why it would be an attractive proposition before you even take into account all the crap Alfie has had to put up with in the media over here.



22 Aug 2020 11:57:34
But gerrard said before the aberdeen game that morelos was ready and focused on Rangers🤦‍♂️👍.



22 Aug 2020 12:52:32
Coldo you also said SG said he wasn’t fit to play what one is it Or is it just to suit your agenda 🤡.



22 Aug 2020 13:54:08
I take it you don't get sarcasm KJA9. How many times are you going to dive in😂🤡👍.



22 Aug 2020 13:55:58
would be difficult not to be distracted and remember he is only 24 and just had his first child too. We are all human. He's clearly not at his best but will still do a job.



22 Aug 2020 10:17:23
Good morning guys all ready for another nail biting grey hair turning day fear not hopefully if this team plays we will win 4-0
mcgregoror mclaughin
tav barisic goldson helander
roofe jack kamara
kent itten morelos
hagi coming on to replace roofe after 60mins
just my opinion
any thoughts guys.



22 Aug 2020 11:09:22
Shouldn't be too nail biting playing with 2 goalkeepers. 🤔.



22 Aug 2020 11:11:55
Not bad, but Arfield for Kamara.



22 Aug 2020 11:19:29
I would start Morelos mate. His heads away. People going on abt he’s scored 2 goals. 1 of they goals was a gap in on the line from poor defending that should never have reached him. I love the guy and it’s sad to see him like this as per previous post but it’s time to do what’s right. I would drop Morelos and give hagi a chance to prove himself as he’s been very poor.



22 Aug 2020 11:20:26
We won’t concede with 2 goalies for sure 😂😂😂👍.



22 Aug 2020 11:44:06
2 keepers should keep a cleansheet lol but i don't see us getting 4 today. Would like to see Roofe start off the right with Hagi behind the striker.



22 Aug 2020 11:50:20
didnt no killie had that much fire power we need to goalies in lol.



22 Aug 2020 12:09:51
Playing 2 goalies is cheating. :-)



22 Aug 2020 12:30:15
Don’t think Morelos will start.



22 Aug 2020 12:53:55
Roofe playing CM 🙈
No chance and Doiger arfield has been rotten whe coming on wouldn’t have him anywhere near the 1st 11.



22 Aug 2020 14:01:14
Barker will play.



22 Aug 2020 14:01:21
Alright guys I thought it would be obvious either goalkeeper 😂👍.



22 Aug 2020 09:03:32
Kris Boyd in the Scottish Sun today states that Kent is by far Rangers best player and if he leaves Gers can kiss goodbye to the Premiership title this season. Does anyone agree with that statement? For me, I don't think he is the best player, let alone by far. I think that title goes to Barasic, Jack or Morelos (when on form) . Thoughts Bears?



22 Aug 2020 09:16:22
I agree.



22 Aug 2020 09:19:08
Borna is by far are most valuable and most creative player.



22 Aug 2020 10:05:25
Correct doiger.



22 Aug 2020 10:26:07
Kent for me is a 'show' player, he flatters to deceive and very rarely has no end product.
The SPL defences worked him out over a year ago and let him run around the edge of the 18 yard box going nowhere.
Sorry, but that's my opinion.



22 Aug 2020 10:51:10
Borna has a quality left peg but he's not as creative as Kent. Both very different. Borna can't run at or take a man the way kent does, Kent doesn't have a left peg like Borna. Barasic is probably our most valuable player but he's not our best player in terms of creativity. 👍.



22 Aug 2020 11:00:49
Barasic is our most consistently good player IMO.



22 Aug 2020 11:11:52
Boyd's opinion carries as much weight as the rest of us.
Too say Kent would win us the league, well he better start turning it on in a weekly basis, chipping in with goals and assists.



22 Aug 2020 11:25:00
Totally with you coldo regarding ryan kent pal! Ryan Kent is without a shadow of a doubt our best/ most talented player, who will only get better and better! Borna and joe aribo are our next important players after kent, that we just can't afford to lose!



22 Aug 2020 11:39:19
Coldo i would say bornas 12 or 13 assists last year to kents zero assists would say different?



22 Aug 2020 11:51:47
Barasic probs the more rounded player but Kent is still improving, getting more end product now and creates a lot of chances and space for others. I think the point being made which I would agree with is losing Kent now would harm our league chances more than losing Morelos. We have the Morelos replacements here but replacing Kent now would be harder.



22 Aug 2020 12:06:27
Tav had plenty of assists paul🤷‍♂️ but neither are better than kent, neither can beat a man like kent or carry the ball the way kent does. Barasic is better at set pieces or crossing but he can't beat a man the way kent does. Two very different players but both very important players for us👍.



22 Aug 2020 12:54:36
Coldo how many assists did the super creative ryan Kent get last season?



22 Aug 2020 13:01:19
No good beating a man if you don’t do anything at the end it’s all about assists and goals at the business end and Kent hasn’t done enough. Hoping he starts to get that final ball right then he can be regarded as our best player. Until then he’s with Hagi and Co. Morelos love him or hate him is our best and most valuable player look over the last 3 seasons it’s undeniable. BB and Tav also create a lot of goals Tavs a bit dodgy defensively but still a valuable player for us. And Ryan Jacks influence on the performances is unquestionable top player! Really hope Roofe starts today.



22 Aug 2020 13:38:21
Bar72 100% correct about Kent but you will need to watch out for the Kent mafia on here is they think he is the 2nd coming of god.



22 Aug 2020 09:00:56
With Chelsea nearly reaching an agreement for Chilwell from Leicester for the left back at £80m. I could see Rodgers coming in for Borna! Hope not but he has started of well and will be on premier clubs radars.



{Ed001's Note - Leicester were close to signing Lewis from Norwich to replace him, so you can probably rest easy.}

22 Aug 2020 09:10:09
I wonder if Rodgers will go in for Edouard with the money?



22 Aug 2020 09:43:14
Hopefully gs1990.



22 Aug 2020 08:23:08
Am worried at noise coming from ibrox regarding Kent. Surely if we're serious we say he's not for sale at any price but fact Leeds are coming back with another offer suggests Kent will be sold for near 15m mark if so what a slap in face to fans who have spent fortunes buying merchandise and season tickets Kent is prob our best player and trying to stop 10 should mean we don't lose him.



22 Aug 2020 09:13:15
In the modern game we aren't in a position to say not for sale at amy price unfortunatly. If a big offer comes in then we accept.



22 Aug 2020 09:15:43
Gerrard did say in his press conference every player no matter what’s club you are every player has a price

I believe that to be true

If Leeds are serious would need a bid starting I think at £17 million and above

Liverpool have a sell on fee so for it to be worth rangers time the bid will need to be high

So we will see how serious Leeds are


If he does go, anyone for any thoughts who we could get to come in and hit the ground running?



22 Aug 2020 09:45:16
Wow, 15million for Kent, that would be a fantastic piece of business. Liverpool get 20%. If that's the case then sell now and immediately give the money to Gerrard to invest.



22 Aug 2020 09:59:53
I think Kent has started season well which would make me not want to sell, especially with the Alfredo situation still rumbling on. Had you asked me over the summer I would have bit your hand off for the £10m never mind £15m.



22 Aug 2020 11:25:50
Let’s not forget troops. Celtic have done this for years. Bought players and sold them on. But that while comfortable in a league without us or in a good position to buy replacements. It’s a blue print we need to follow but not this season. It’s too big. If the board sell Kent then it’s season over. He’s had a great start. The talent is there. Him and Borna are our best players. We need to keep them. Would rather kamara went for the money that was quoted if true but I agree with boydy. Sell Kent we give them 10. Imho.



22 Aug 2020 07:50:29
With it being a match day and still C.V. hanging about. Does anybody know if the club shop at ibrox is open today? I am in glasgow this weekend wanted to head up and get the kids strips. If not hang off until 2moro.



22 Aug 2020 07:06:12
West ham looking too off load Wilshire
Reports say the are willing too loan and cover some wages
Or buy up remainder of his contract
Says he's on close too 100000 grand
Just shows the difference in wages these teams can offer
Crazy.



22 Aug 2020 08:12:14
Blue Dreamer, that's why we in Scotland should tell Sky, BT Sports etc to get lost until they offer some decent money to us. Yes, the English product is better, but not by the financial margin paid out.



22 Aug 2020 06:30:49
tell leeds its 15 for kent they can afford that and give sg the funds only my opinion.



22 Aug 2020 07:29:01
We paid £7.5m and would owe Liverpool the sell on of £3m it the fee was £15m. As he never requested a transfer, he'd be due a loyalty bonus, maybe as much as £500k. So we would be looking at around a £4m profit. Why on earth would we sell one of our best players for a £4m profit? One of the very few who has showed he can turn up in big games and make a difference. Yes, he's inconsistent at times but he's young and can improve. I wouldn't entertain any offers for him at all. Let's try and actually win a league here.



{Ed001's Note - the 'loyalty' bonus players are entitled to if they do not hand in a transfer request is 5% of the transfer fee. 5% also goes to UEFA or FIFA, I forget which, in a transfer.}

22 Aug 2020 08:11:48
Glasgow Rangers it’s 20% of profit not whole fee.



21 Aug 2020 23:49:20
So, if Lille have dropped their interest in Morelos, how do you think he'll respond to that? Is he going to take the huff because he hasn't got his move or is he going to knuckle down knowing that he's got serious competition now. ?



22 Aug 2020 03:55:37
Morelos is over weight mate go back and watch last week he was shooting from difficult angles cause he couldn't beat his man his attempted run were laboured the guy needs to loose 1.5 stone in my opinion.



22 Aug 2020 06:06:27
Hopefully he knuckles down and becomes the player that started last season. There is no bidding war for him and any, if there was, interest has certainly went cold. Tells its own story to be honest. Hutton wrote the other day that morelos was only getting a game because we had no other strikers who were match fit and that Gerrard can't wait to drop him, we saw this against livi, let's be honest it does show a lack of faith if you need a goal and you take your 'top' striker off. I agree with hutton, I think Gerrard wants shot of him. I just don't buy that we knocked back 16mil, there isn't exactly a queue for his signature. I would love to see the morelos we know up front in a two with itten. Fingers crossed it happens today🤞👍.



22 Aug 2020 06:28:35
The Lille chairman said they may come back in for him.



22 Aug 2020 08:06:22
Despite the negativity surrounding Morelos, he remains our most potent threat by far. He has been involved in 5 of our 7 goals to date. Other teams know that if you stop Morelos you stop Rangers. His attempts have often been from difficult angles, not just this season, as we insist on playing throught the middle. Also, he is often the only option in the box making him easy to mark. He does need to improve his fitness. But this makes me question the quality of recent signings if they cannot replace our half-fit striker.



22 Aug 2020 09:42:37
They can replace him, scoring record when it really matters in the league is utterly abysmal. The so-called superstar hasn't helped us win anything in three seasons. Give the new players a chance.



22 Aug 2020 09:48:05
bear abroad roofe has done half a pre season i think once morelos goes we won't miss hs goals with itten and roofe hitting form no problem. Think itten will be a far better more composed finisher than morelos (who tends to snatch and blast everything)



22 Aug 2020 09:53:25
In the papers that Lille are back in for Morelos, so that maybe tells a story?
But that's probably bullsh*t like just the last time Lille bid for Morelos, eh coldo? 😉.



22 Aug 2020 09:56:23
Give itten, roofe a chance. Let's all remember we're sitting top of the league. Morelos might not be at his best but even then he's contributed so far this season.
Not bad for someone fat and not interested 🤔.



22 Aug 2020 10:08:09
I've got high hopes for itten paul86 but these new signings will do well to score the amount of goals Morelos has.



22 Aug 2020 11:52:38
If they offer anywhere near 16mil then bite there hand off grumpy but yeah its prob bs, you're not really on here telling me its in the papers are you? Like the papers are reliable😂😂😉👍.



22 Aug 2020 12:35:37
Well you didn't believe SG? 🤔
You didn't believe the Lille owner/ chairman? 🤔
Who would it take for you to believe it coldo? 🤔.
