Ace 3,556 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 RYAN KENT is fed up being the loan Ranger. Constant change in pursuit of happiness has brought about six clubs in five years for the far-travelled 22-year-old. From Liverpool to Coventry, to Barnsley and Bristol, with an ill-fated spell at SC Frieburg in between. Yet he’s never truly settled anywhere the way he has in Scotland. Brought to Glasgow last summer, Kent capped an outstanding season with a nomination for both PFA Scotland Player of the Year and Young Player of Year. The winger has excelled under Steven Gerrard at Ibrox, but admits he has no idea if the pair will be reunited next season. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/4192150/ryan-kent-Rangers-liverpool/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1556746343 Bobby Hume and CoopsLaud 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hedgehog 10,673 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Would love to get him permanently but they want stupid money so I would love to have at least another year on loan. He’s loving it playing for us. 👍 Bobby Hume and Copland bear 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IpswichGer 3,773 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Must be a deal we can cut somewhere. Give them an exclusive buy back deal or a say in what price we can sell him on for if we do sign him. Dave Hedgehog and Bearsden bear 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philiprfc 1,799 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Loaning him back is the most realistic scenario I think. 50ShadesofBlue and Dave Hedgehog 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat 4,511 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I rate him highly and hope we can keep him - on loan if need be - for another season. Dave Hedgehog and Bobby Hume 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
orange&blue92 1,284 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Loan is the only realistic option unfortunately, he will go for £10m plus down south no problem. Problem we have now, is buying these guys before most folk see their talent. Seasideger and Bristol loyal 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyscott1963 18,290 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 The kid goes back down the road and ends telling them he's chucking it,as he is "fed up being sent out on loan" They might as well play ball and sell us the kid,and not be too fuckin stupid with the asking price. If this is where he wants to be,and nowhere else then we've knocked it off. Bobby Hume and Blumhoilann 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudrup1984 25,100 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Hopefully a bit of common sense will prevail. We clearly want him. Gerrard desperately wants him. Kent is happy here and he doesn't seem to have any future at Liverpool. Liverpool and teams in the EPL are awash with money. Hopefully they show a bit of goodwill towards Kent, Gerrard and us. Our relationship can only help. If we could get a deal at 5million I think that's pretty fair. Loan would be most likely if anything though. Would be delighted if he was here next season.

Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Shortlisted for SPFL Young Player of the Year will simply bump up his price and we have no chance of signing him - almost a certainty that he will be off. However, top English clubs looking at their young promising players will be keen to send them on loan to us, as we can develop them with title contention and European experience - something the likes of the Championship and Lg 1 clubs wouldn't be able to offer.

stuart1994 4,302 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Actually praying that Liverppol cut us some sort of deal £5/6M and we break the bank for him, can see him being part of a league winning side. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is where he wants to be,and nowhere else then we've knocked it off. I would agree that this should be the most practical outcome. We're it not for fucking agents!!! I am convinced that these twats alone are responsible for the majority of lost talent and inflated wages. Remember the days when a player said he wanted to go to a club, and could make it happen because neither he, nor especially the agent was a greedy, over inflated-ego cunt?

If we can get him for about £5m it would be money well spent. We'd at least double that in just a few seasons up here, more if we can get him playing in Europe every year scottyscott1963 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,715 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Would love it, but got to assume that with all the other wide players we now have in the squad that we dont think it likely to happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueshoff 11,800 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 He's 22 - he's not going back and into that Liverpool squad. He is a minor asset to them. If he doesn't want to be sold he'll be back out on loan. Anyone know when his Liverpool contract expires? scottyscott1963 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEPPS BOY 73,890 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Would like him to stay but he would need to improve his goals and assists stats. Really poor numbers this season considering the talent he has. Der Hammer of Der Gods 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smile 26,600 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Not fussy on Ryan Kent good/great in the games against teams that open up against us but not so good against teams that sit in slows the game down at times and final ball is still suspect.

Agree with this, we need more end product from him for the numbers being quoted although he did have a slow start so I’d expect his numbers have been improving.
