We need a full new back 4 2 x centre half's plus Soutar I would love us to go for Doig and Max Johnston centre half's no sure?
12 Apr 2025 19:42:02
We need a right back and a left back ??.
12 Apr 2025 19:48:49
Id like to sign both doig and johnston but signing doig would mean we'd have three left backs and would have to move on one of either ridvan or jefte and i'm a fan of both. i know many fans have frustrations with jefte but i hope people stick it out with him as he's still young and i think has bags of potential and ridvan also has injury issues every now and again.
12 Apr 2025 20:37:45
I really like both Doig and Johnston, but unfortunately can't see either signing.
12 Apr 2025 20:40:49
Tav I'd be looking to sell yilmaz yhus summer and buy a LB who's more robust and start as our no1 also think we will need 2 ch as balogun can't stay fit and propper not good enough also we don't know if soutter will stay. I like penrice at hearts but unsure about ch area.
12 Apr 2025 20:44:44
I'd sell ridvan and Jefte in the summer. Neither are upto the job whether it's ability fitness availability etc is irrelevant, fact is they're not upto the job. That's the truth of it whether we rate one or the other or neither.
I'd like a new left back woth Fraser as competition
Right back i'd go kasa and another, maybe sterling if we can't off load him with Hutton pushing behind them.
Centre back we need a left sided starter with Fernandes and nsiala as back up and I'd keep Leon as 5th choice.
12 Apr 2025 21:26:41
Ows i agree with you on that a solid left back signed and swapping out with jefte every now and again wouldn't be a crisis ?.
12 Apr 2025 21:29:44
I'd be keeping Jefte but not first choice sell Yilmaz and sign another, EHL, was that lcb that plays in Serbia best position not lb mate?
12 Apr 2025 21:36:45
Where is Doug playing these days and has anyone watched any of his games?
12 Apr 2025 21:37:14
Stevie i know everyone has their own opinions but you genuinely believe Fraser is better than jefte? i just done see it.
12 Apr 2025 22:18:27
So we draw 0-0 vs 4th in la Liga with 10 men. so we have players who can defend when that is all they are asked to do. so they need to learn how to do it when teams break on us or we need to get new players who can do that. is that the difficult part as only dominant teams will have that type of defender.
12 Apr 2025 22:30:43
Stevie gm am really hoping king gets moved on.
12 Apr 2025 22:59:48
Strom, he's playing for Sassuolo - who paid 6m euros for him.
Currently sitting top of Serie B and cruising towards Serie A.
Haven't watched any of him, but know the Guys for Scotland who watch the lads over in Italy and they rate him.
12 Apr 2025 23:06:40
I agree tav fraser ain't good enough so jefte to compete with another would be my ideal situation.
13 Apr 2025 00:24:38
Yea I think Fraser is better than Jefte.
Think he's a better player and he's also Scottish which although not essential it's a bonus point.
I'd rather have Fraser as back up than Jefte. But would want better as a starter.
Also, the Serbian league player is a left back.
7 assists and 1 goal in 28 games over 2 teams this season, as of last week.
13 Apr 2025 06:33:46
OWS, i honestly can't see tav now being bought by another club and i honestly think he'll remain at Rangers but in all probability he won't be a guaranteed first pick as we now need to sign his replacement right back ?I think yilmaz will be sold and i'd hope we can sign james penrice from hearts to replace yilmaz ?.
13 Apr 2025 08:47:14
Still some talk of Turkish n Saudi links I'm sure, both been on the go for a bit, probably nothing.
13 Apr 2025 09:30:07
Cheers ehl mate.
Fraser is nowhere near as good as jefte come on now.
13 Apr 2025 09:59:40
Fraser is a good player, but needs to find a couple of levels in order to step up to first team level.
Hopefully the loan to Livi gives him that boost.
I know PC was keen to see him move up the pitch and compared him technically to Cerny and I know he's played at both LB and LW for Livi - so maybe he'll evolve in to a winger.
In terms of comparing him to Jefte, there really isn't any comparison and it just goes to show how blinkered fans become when they either take a liking or a disliking to a player.
13 Apr 2025 10:21:21
Doig would never join us and Johnston maybe too expensive now, certainly should have had Max when at Motherwell.
13 Apr 2025 11:50:44
Cooper correct reports Johnston going to Lisbon circa 10 million.
