    Cantwell was our best defender yesterday, for the most part he was tracking runnners deep and making last ditch challenges.  I think if we played Lundstrum instead of Jack (Who's like a man down) then Cantwell could have stuck to a more advanced position.

    Was all going so well until you mentioned Lundstrum 🤣🤣

    Kent will go on to have a good career at a decent level.

    I think Kamara will also do okay.

    I honestly think Morelos will go on a downward spiral of obscurity. Get a decent move next on a free, ride the bench, leave in a huff, go to a smaller team, struggle for fitness and his head will go.

    Morelia could be the new Carlos Pena

     

  3. Too safe and risk aversive. Needs to try and beat a man/play a killer pass. Would rather try and fail than not try at all. Anyone can play square balls. If we wanted sideway passes we would play Lundstrum.

    Goldson should be putting a tackle in anaw a thought?

    He thought about it, but obvs not confident he could take the ball cleanly. Was too early to take a red.

    Anybody who thinks Glenn Middleton should be on that list has a short memory.

    When Kent was injured, he was playing for 3 Rangers teams in one week and scoring for every one.

    When Kent was fit, Gerrard fucked him out on loan after loan for two and a half years to be forgotten about, then finally let him go to Utd. All this despite him having a five year contract.

    He's played for every Scotland age group and there is a player in there. Who's going to be our left winger when our most technically gifted player pisses off at the end of the season? Remember Middleton was only a teenager when he last played for Rangers.

    He's not in Kent's class, but I'd welcome him back. Only turns 23 on 1st Jan. Wasted at Tannadice.

    Thanks for your input Glen

    If he has a storming second half of the season, then he might attract the interest of other clubs in bigger leagues.

    If this was to happen, then if we meet the agreed fee in the summer, he might reject the contract terms we offer, or ask for a lot more than he will at the moment, leading to him ending up at another club.

    Buying him now would settle the doubts, but also runs the risk that he picks up a big injury between now and the end of the season, or he becomes absolutely chronic and realise he is not worth the fee we have paid.

    We can debate valuation all day long, but we wouldn't have won either of Beales first two games without him.

    What?

    1. Do you think there's a club that's going to spend £10-15m on Tillman?

    2. We don't have an agreement in place with Tillman to sign him. If we get a bid accepted we still need to negotiate with him. Why would he choose to join us if we're just going to sell him? If there were other clubs interested in him that he would prefer he could just go direct to them.

    Did you think we woukd get £20M fir Bassey?

    Apparently we do have fee agreed and first dibs. 

    Maybe he woukd see a move to us as a spring board to the epl. Like Aribo, Bassey etc

    Agreed on the second point. First point is a tricky one I think. Aribo came from Charlton, Tillman from Bayern Munich, so there’s automatically a premium. We also exploited the cross border Bosman rule to Aribo for that cheap, he probably would’ve cost us £3-5m if we’d been buying him. I think Tillman arrived a better player than Aribo did as well. 

    Tillman is 6 years younger than Aribo, or 3 years younger than when Aribo signed over 3 years ago.

    Clubs will pay big money for young players with potential, only need to look at Bassey & Patterson.

    I would try and do a deal for Tillman and move him on quickly.
