Reasons to be cheerful.
Danilo, Cerny and Bajrami look like they'll made a big difference to our forward line when they start to play together.
Coartes is a genuine talent.
Reasons to be not so cheerful.
The more Jefte works on his final ball, the worse it gets.
Yilmaz isn't a genuine talent.
22 Nov 2024 23:33:52
Agree with everything there Ehl but certainly not Yilmaz, very talented footballer for a left back, you don't not get in the Turkish squad at 19 year for the euros in England if the talent isn't there mate.
22 Nov 2024 23:36:51
Been very unlucky with injuries at Rangers and a good offer I'd sell him.
22 Nov 2024 23:49:45
Seen some good stuff from yilmaz in flashes but unfortunately hasn’t put a decent run together like too many others made of glass.
23 Nov 2024 00:03:10
No harm to you mystar either mate I like your posts just really disillusioned by all of our constant injuries.
23 Nov 2024 05:52:31
I hope you’re right regarding Coartes, I’m really worried by his injury record for his age. I’m struggling to see a player coming good for us and I fear we’ll look back on what a player we could have had.
23 Nov 2024 06:36:36
Still think we'd see more of bajrami in the 10, he does well infront of jefte but feel at times he's not brought into the play enough, disagree about yilmaz, there is a player there but injuries are curtailing him, would like yilmaz fit at LB jefte infront of him n bajrami at 10.
23 Nov 2024 07:26:33
A wee bit unfair on Cortes. the boy doesn't have a history of long-term injuries.
23 Nov 2024 07:55:04
Ehl, i think jefte is a good player my friend, who i only see getting better and better and has a left peg like a wand ?.
23 Nov 2024 07:55:21
Perhaps and I hope that turns out to be the case, he’s young enough. It’s just something niggling me that we’ll know there’s a good player there but we’ll just never see him.
23 Nov 2024 08:01:05
Yilmaz has got to go for me. Think he has something to offer if used in rotation but too many injuries now if we can get 3-4m absolutely take.
23 Nov 2024 08:22:46
Not sure about gen talent notnreally seen much from him.
23 Nov 2024 08:27:54
It's all about opinions.
MyStar, what I've seen and heard of Yilmaz in and around the training centre isn't positive.
Dado, Cortes is a breath of fresh air, he young, naive and raw but has absolute bags of ability. Hopefully, like Raskin, the club handle his rehab and we get so see him fully fit soon.
Fork, see a lot of clamour for Bajrami as a 10 and a lot of criticism from PC playing him out of position. I've said it a few times, he prefers to play on the left hand side of midfield, or in the inside left position (which is where I believe he plays for Albania) . I think when we have our wide players back we'll see us line up without a 10.
23 Nov 2024 08:29:21
Foolmonty agreed mate Cortes never had 1 injury before Rangers, Fork Yilmaz lb with Jefte lw is probably still our best performance of the left side I've seen this season only 1 game but both interacted very well with each other.
23 Nov 2024 08:42:37
Ehl just thought use coaches would be more positive one of our best players mate, surely they can't all think the same will only be certain ones and really don't understand it mate, lad has talent.
23 Nov 2024 08:54:45
I thibk we have found twl raw gems in cortes and jefte, and will be excited tl see them play down the left together with Bajrami more central and Cerny on the right, good thing is i believe before the international break most of the injured boys were back training and/ or getting minutes in the B team so shouldn't be far away.
23 Nov 2024 08:55:46
Only had about 30 minutes playing with each other in the Rangers side but you can't tell Danilo and Cerny understand each other very well, they had around 30 goals contributions in half a season in Dutch football.
23 Nov 2024 09:00:31
I have liked yilmaz when he has been fit but time to cut loses and get rid IMO. He is no good being on the injury list which is constant with him.
Couldn’t say Cortez is a genuine talent as not seen enough of him but we need him to come back from injury and be good.
23 Nov 2024 09:03:09
Sir Walter, Jefte is awesome and will be a brilliant left back for us - however he definitely doesn't have a wand of a left foot.
Could be wrong, but I think he's approaching 20 games without a goal or an assist?
Lad is working hard on it though.
23 Nov 2024 09:06:29
Front four of Cerny rw Bajrami cam Cortes lw Danilo cf.
23 Nov 2024 09:10:50
Ehl and others yulmaz loan in January, obligation to buy Germany
Matondo English championship loan to buy.
23 Nov 2024 09:49:07
MyStar, as I said, it's all about opinions and you are perfectly entitled to think that Yilmaz is one of our best players.
I'd go as far as to say I'm one of the most positive posters on here, but I'll always be honest.
What little I've seen of Yilmaz in training has been really disappointing and when I've spoken to others around the club it's a common theme.
23 Nov 2024 09:59:36
Gets a couple of high earners out as well John, agree with storm no good injured the majority of the time but if he gets over his injuries he'll have a very good career.
23 Nov 2024 10:03:23
John, I know of the Matondo move, same move as was supposed to happen in preseason - but his injury stalled it. Just hoping he can get fit enough to make it happen this time round.
On the Yilmaz move, him and his agents have had about 10 moves lined up and they never happen - have my fingers crossed though.
23 Nov 2024 10:46:56
That’s actually interesting the thoughts behind Yilmaz EHL
EHl are you suggesting some may feel Yilmaz hasn't been a good buy? I know he’s had his injuries
However if he hadn’t had injuries would the talk around him be the same? Or would we have seen a better player?
Just interested to know
do you hear anything on what positions PC would like to improve going forward
Again Interesting John with regards to loan out the 2 players with option to buy suppose that will be dependent on Yilmaz getting and staying fit to move in January
is Yilmaz looking for the move or happy to move do we know?
Same with Matondo is happy to move on loan too do we know?
John you pick g up on what positions we would like to improve if we can in January or is more likely to be in summer?
23 Nov 2024 10:53:45
“it's all about opinions” - I wish everybody knew this ?.
23 Nov 2024 11:27:28
If not a 10 EHL then as u suggest the auld inside left, we need him more involved, can be isolated and not brought in to the play as much as I'd like mate. ?.
23 Nov 2024 12:02:20
Stig, my understanding of the Yilmaz situation is that getting a serious injury so early really hampered him.
Being young, alone and in a new country whilst trying to recover from your first serious injury is tough and it really unsettled him.
Since then he's had a really frustrating time with other injuries - many deemed preventable - which has let to further frustrations.
General consensus is that a clean start is best for all involved.
23 Nov 2024 12:29:57
Hard to see how we can assume that Danilo, Cerny and Bajrami will play well together when it has only happened for 20 odd minutes against Motherwell, then we praise Cortes as a genuine talent when we`ve hardly seen him in months but we slag off Jefte who has been one of the few players to do well this season and despite being young and inexperienced has settled into the team far better than others who folk are still making excuses for.
23 Nov 2024 12:38:20
Wslgers Danilo and Cerny have played with each other before and very impressive they got around 30 goal contributions in half a season in Dutch football.
23 Nov 2024 13:11:21
Wslgers - my post is based off what I've seen from the players over the last few weeks at the training centre, not off 20 minutes at Motherwell.
I'm also pretty comfortable with my opinion on Cortes as I've been involved directly with his recovery - just like I was equally as confident in my opinion of Raskin.
On Jefte, I criticised one part of his game - his final ball.
23 Nov 2024 14:27:43
Stig I’m told two defender a mid and mb a cf.
23 Nov 2024 15:15:50
Thanks John and EHl ?.
