Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


29 Jul 2019 23:49:37
I am looking forward to the season ahead. I believe SG has made some good acquisitions that have added quality and depth to the squad and we should mount a serious challenge to Celtic. However I am a bit disappointed with the lack of youth players being given the opportunity of starting or playing some part of a 1st team match. What is the point of having a seemingly successful youth development system in place when we don't give our best young players an opportunity in the 1st team? Hopefully we will see the likes of McPake being given their chance on a more regular basis rather than just a one off match even if its just coming on off the bench.

You can kind of understand it as everybody at the club, including the supporters crave instant success. Steve has maybe two more cracks at the title (and that's only if we mount a serious challenge this season) . It's difficult to give youth a chance unless they are truly exceptional, like Barry Ferguson was. They need to hit the road running. That's the way it is I'm afraid.

Interesting commentary from club 1872 about the ongoing SD court case.

Would be good to see IOM and fellow doubters read what clearly has more insight that anyone on here rather than constantly predicting doom and gloom.

The club is doing great, the squad will be very close in the league this year and should win at least one trophy.

Our finances are in good shape and Ashley will not have a huge affect on us.

This is our time, get behind the board, the manager and our whole squad and stop the negativity.

Would be good to hear only encouragement from the terraces even when we have an off day.

The ryan kent to rangers (hopefully) transfer,
is probably the most talked about transfer on here just now, with us bears. No wonder because most of us are desparate for us to bring him back to ibrox. So ed, could you please run a poll amongst all of us, which is sure to interest practically all of us on here.
The poll being what's our honest feelings.
Will ryan kent sign for rangers on a permanent deal, on a season long loan deal again, sign for another club on a permanent deal or sign for another club on a season long loan deal? I'd be over the moon if we manage to get kent back to rangers in any capacity. If he does come back to ibrox,
coldo, yately1 and me will be going for a pint together to celebrate! Cheers ED, would be very much obliged if you could run this poll for me. By the way ED, do you think ryan kent will be back at rangers for this season either on loan or permanently?

Ryan Kent Poll

29 Jul 2019 22:35:17
I'm desperate to get kent back, if he was interested in villa or leeds he'd have signed for them by now, they have the cash so there would be no issues. I think its a common fact that he has had a taste of the famous and he knows he won't get the same taste elsewhere. They might be rich down south but there's not a team like the glasgow rangers. ๐Ÿ‘.



29 Jul 2019 22:11:14
87shendo started a discussion below that never really took off, I'm surprised because its quite an important topic. Who is our two CB's that start? let's face it by what we have seen already we have 4 cracking CB's. For me Katic has to start he dominates both boxes and is a clear goal threat. He has started this season the way he finished last, very strongly. The other position at the moment is goldson's but I think helander will have that shortly. Edmundson has done himself no harm either. Great problem to have. I know you like goldson coop but I'm sure you'll agree that katic has been superb. Thoughts? ๐Ÿ‘.



29 Jul 2019 22:48:11
I for one agree with that coldo. Katic first name down then it's up to the others to claim the remaining spot.



29 Jul 2019 23:09:57
Coldo you're correct, all four centre halfs look good. I like big katic and he has been good and dominant in both boxes. But here comes the but. I think goldson has always been gerrard's no.1 choice up'till now.
The connor goldson at the beginning of last season and before his injury starts on the right centre half position for me. I truly think big helander will nail down the left side of the centre half position, but still think edmundson and katic will play games, ie. horses for courses. I do honestly think however, that the manager's centre half preferred pairing will be goldson and helander. Helander is left footed and brings more balance in there because of that. We all have and are entitled to our opinions and that's my honest opinion guys.



30 Jul 2019 01:59:48
Helander hasn't been bought to warm the bench and of tbe other 3 my fav is Edmonson due to his distribution and comfort on the ball- i totally agree that not only will our defensive options be horses for courses but that will echo throughout the team- we all want 55 and will cheer whatever first 11 our manager chooses - i'm sure sure all of our individual opinions have the club at heart.



30 Jul 2019 01:58:09
with also 3 at the back option or even edmundson pushed a little in front. anything possible this year with rotation the only clear answer I can see.



30 Jul 2019 08:45:32
I think Gerrard will go with Goldson and Helander.
Now are you sitting down @coldo? I agree with you. I've always liked Katic for the attacking option he gives at corners.
But as someone else said we've 4 cracking CH's now. Edmundson as well can be relied on to do a turn when needed.
Until I see more of Helander my choice would be to stick with Goldson and Katic.

29 Jul 2019 11:16:38
Watched the last couple of games and noticed if we had not been up against two first class goalies our score levels would have been awsome.

If we had been playing against the goalie them over the dark side were playing against we would also have won 5 . 0 for example.



29 Jul 2019 17:47:28
And if my auntie had baws, think you know the rest.

Sorry we cannot get Kent, a real good player but looking for 10M is top heavy. We could get a good striker for 5M and a midfielder for 5M. Good luck to the lad with his new club? .



29 Jul 2019 11:02:25
Hi fellow bears overall I've been happy with our transfer business and the way the pre season has went but my one niggling worry is that we're too light up front. Our 2 strikers are both great in their own right but if we lose alf then we're lightweight up front and not leaving enough time to get a replacement. SG said that he wouldn't be leaving late in the transfer window but it's not going away and I'm worried this could happen. Thoughts fellow bears. 55 on the way.



Formula 1: Germany Talking Points

29 Jul 2019 10:30:33
Had a wee discussion last night with fellow bears and celtic fans, regarding who was the better attacking midfielder (no.10), between rangers joe aribo and celtic ryan christie.
They all said christie was the best attacking midfielder in scotland and we were saying that aribo is better than christie. I actually put a wager on with one of them that aribo will have scored more goals with also more assists than christie, come the end of the season. Would just like to gauge all other bears thoughts on this, on here? Being honest of course.



29 Jul 2019 10:37:32
Aribo here only two minutes and should prove to be the better player. Might be less assists as he will hog the ball.



29 Jul 2019 11:39:39
Aribo.



29 Jul 2019 12:01:58
Does christie not take their penalties.



29 Jul 2019 13:38:17
Aribo is head and shoulders above Christie!
Christie will be stuck at Celtic or a lesser club for life.
Aribo will end up in the EPL - he is that good๐Ÿ‘.



29 Jul 2019 14:13:48
Colonel, if I had to pick a fault with aribo it would be that he does tend to hang onto the ball a bit longer than he should. I noticed this a few times. He will iron that out tho as he has the quality. ๐Ÿ‘.



29 Jul 2019 09:53:33
Question, now that pres season is complete and weโ€™ve seen all 4 centre backs, who will SG pick as his first choice?

Personally I think Goldsons place isnโ€™t as chart as some think. He has been solid but Herlander looks class and I wasnโ€™t expecting Edmundson so be as good as what he is. Katic for me is a season away from being 1st choice.
My pick would be Goldson and Herlander but as soon as Goldson slips up I thing Edmundson will be right in there.



29 Jul 2019 14:14:29
Helander and katic๐Ÿ‘.



29 Jul 2019 15:26:48
Helander and Edmunson.



29 Jul 2019 09:36:30
Good morning fellow bears! Its been a while since my last post although keeping up daily. Ryan Kent seems to have us split and i see now that Klopp has stated due to his successful loan spell at a great club. we now have to dig deep and has ruled out another loan. Imho i think he does add value to the team but like many of you do not think he is worth Liverpools valuation of him.

Even if we can offer say ยฃ8 million, this means we have to sacrifice Tav or Morelos which i think personally is a sacrifice we can ill afford. Klopp talking him up will only increases interest from other clubs and therefore a possible bidding war. We should now look to securing another striker as i think this is the only position we will eventually need to cover. So my question is, do we go all out and try secure kent at the cost of losing Tav or Moreles?



29 Jul 2019 10:23:19
rangersman1872 I am in complete agreement with you re kent. I have said on these pages before that although I do like kent as a player I don't believe he is worth the money being touted. I believe the last piece of the puzzle is an out and out striker, and we are there. With 55 there for the taking this season.



29 Jul 2019 10:40:03
We don't need Kent, end of.



29 Jul 2019 12:50:13
Kent ainโ€™t worth 8 million, Max 4 million, Rangers need to buy players with a re sale value, To buy Kent at 8 million would mean NO re sale value, Only my opinion ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ.
