Players to keep. Starters and bench. I'll go first.
Kelly (number 2)
Kasa
Nsiala
Souttar
Raskin (only if signing an extension)
Igamane
Rice
Have I missed anyone?
12 May 2025 10:45:24
Barron
Dio
Cerny.
12 May 2025 10:46:25
Ibrox, I'd keep Dessers.
With nearly 50 goals in two seasons, the guy's a keeper!
12 May 2025 10:49:11
Aye diomande.
12 May 2025 11:03:36
Kelly back up
Souttar starter
Kasanwirjo starter
Nsiala back up
Fernandes back up
Balogun back up
Jefte back up
Hutton squad player
Diomande starter
Raskin starter
Cameron back up to begin with.
Rice back up
Barron back up
Cortes starter/ back up can't decide yet.
Curtis squad player
Nsio squad player
Igamane starter
Dessers back up
But no chance do we get rid of others in the summer.
Dowell, Davies, Cifuentes, Hagi, Lawrence, Propper, Danilo shouldn't be a problem, but then Matondo, Tavernier, Butland will be with others.
But if what was said on here is true with Gerrard returning as our manager then Tavernier will be our captain next season, still can't see Gerrard returning though.
12 May 2025 11:20:12
Rice should be starting before Barron. What if we managed to keep Cerny and sign Sima.
I would play Cerny as the 10 behind a front two of Igamane and Sima.
A midfield 3 of Raskin Dio Rice.
I know we'll add players to the midfield in the summer but that's a decent foundation to start with.
Of course a new back 4.
12 May 2025 11:25:43
I'd punt Soutter he's another one that Rangers fans have convinced themselves he's good but he's average at best.
12 May 2025 11:48:40
Kelly
Kasa
Sterling
Souttar
Nsiala
Jefte
Barron
Raskin
Diomande
Rice
Cortes
Rice
Igamane
Danilo
Some of these I'd let go for the right offers.
It's just not possible for us to have such a huge overhaul of players in one window but the priority would be to have the high earners or non contributors off the wage bill. These should be prioritised.
Dowell
Davies
Matondo
Cifuentes
Hagi
Lawrence
Tav
Butland
Propper.
12 May 2025 11:48:44
Barra, the best cb in the country in my opinion and know cb better than Souttar comes and plays in this league.
12 May 2025 11:51:07
Keeper Lcb lb cm rw signed for first 11.
12 May 2025 12:06:54
Funny feeling our man is running a couple of users names again.
12 May 2025 12:08:19
Sorry, I missed Barron who is certainly keep. Dessers goal return has been excellent. Yesterday absolutely summed him up. A horrendous miss and then took a half chance and did well. With his age and form, I'd be looking to sell and recoup what we paid providing we have someone ready to come in and fill his boots. A hard one to get right though.
12 May 2025 12:18:18
Ideally we keep -
GK - Kelly and Munn
LB - Jefte and Fraser
LCB - Nsiala
RCB - Souttar and Fernandes
RB - Kasa and Hutton
LCM - Dio and Curtis
CM - Barron and Rice
RCM - Raskin, Cameron and Nsio
LW - Cortes
ST - Iga
RW -
It's an almost impossible ask to move on / replace - Butland, Tav, Divine, Sterling, Davies, King, Proper, Balogun, Yilmaz, Bajrami, Cifuentes, Hagi, Lawrence, Dowell, Cerny, McAusland, Matondo, Dessers, Danilo - all in one window.
12 May 2025 12:28:38
What about his mistake in the old firm game, that happens a good few times over a season that costs us, feel we need better if we are serious about putting a decent challenge in, your opinion but Carter Vickers is a better centre half in my opinion.
12 May 2025 12:40:03
I know this is probably not going to go down well, but I would sell Dio if a decent bid was received. I just don't see what he brings to the team at all. We can do much better in my view.
12 May 2025 13:06:22
I would let souttar go as well vastly overrated by some. Nowhere near good enough.
12 May 2025 13:14:55
Souttar is not even the best CB at the club nevermind in the country. Both Balogun and Carter vickers are better than Souttar. I would like to see Kasa get more game time at CB To see what he's about in there.
12 May 2025 13:29:12
Catkin
Rice before Barron debatable. On last night wouldn't shift Barron because outstanding last night. Wait/ see.
12 May 2025 14:15:23
Miller I think next season we are going to see Rice potential and his breakthrough. I think we have to play Rice now for him to kick on.
12 May 2025 15:08:30
I hate to say it but cathkin is right about CCV and balogun being better than souttar the boy is a bombscare.
12 May 2025 15:32:38
Barron is currently miles ahead of Rice - also given his application and desire, I can only see that gap increasing as Barron has a work ethic that's light years ahead of most.
Club are currently trying to convert Rice, and Barron, to a six - think this actually suits Barron, however I don't think it suits Rice, but he's not physically capable of playing the 8 just yet.
Both are in desperate need of an experienced 6 to learn from though.
12 May 2025 15:42:52
Ibrox, I'm going to have to disagree with you on Dessers.
I suppose he's one of those players that splits opinions.
12 May 2025 15:58:56
Nonsense storm.
12 May 2025 17:04:17
Mark44, I've got to side with you re Dessers, very difficult to attempt to replicate 48 goals in 2 seasons.
12 May 2025 18:45:47
Jim, another striker will not hit those numbers. That's my thinking anyhow.
12 May 2025 19:10:16
I kind of agree DTB. I have also mentioned his inconsistency for such a big fee but I'm sort of leaning towards giving him another year.
