Smile 26,600 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 7 million terrible if true but that's what you pay for even an average player in England, I like Kent but still feel we are short on strikers not wingers. It would be a brave board to turn down Gerrard for whats been a great start to the league bar the disaster yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its true the question to be answered by Rangers is why this business was not concluded weeks ago. It was clear Liverpool did not rate the player as first team material for them. It was clear that Rangers did rate him as the sort of first team player we needed. Was it only today that Liverpool decided to accept whatever Rangers offered, or was it only today that Rangers decided it would pay what Liverpool was asking? Which was it? The player is nowhere near match fit so there is bound to be a period of time while he gets up to Gerrard-requirements for fitness. Look at Helander. He's been here for weeks and weeks and still can't get a game. Point being it could be well into the autumn and maybe even approaching winter before a fit Kent is ready to start playing regular first team football. Missing games where he might have made a winning difference...…..like yesterday. All part of Stevies masterplan. Play shite against the scum and go in and ask for the Euro money to buy Kent.

Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Hopefully the 7mill is the price of the whole deal including his contract and Liverpool are doing a Scum FC trick with their transfer pricing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueMe 25,327 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 The fee will include add-ons and bonuses etc and even then, i can't see it being close to £7m tbh. Gerrard was quick to rubbish the £4.5m fee we had apparently paid for Helander and the £3m fee for Katic- i can see him doing the same here tbh.

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 The longer last season went on the better Kent played. We know we are getting a player who knows the setup, most of the team, and the manager. The figure quoted during the summer was 12M. At 6-7M it's a bold move but possibly a rather wise one.

I'm still amazed he thinks he can get through an entire season of 3 domestic competitions to be competed for (I'd like to say won but not after yesterday's shambles) plus a Europa League run. 2 strikers where one is a reforming serial red-carder who is still proving he's lost that tag, and the other is 36 years old. That, and the release of other strikers on the books. Does Gerrard genuinely think he can have a successful season just relying on 2 strikers.

Not to worry, apparently we're getting Salah on loan. Yes another striker would be appreciated, but who knows what goes on in the head of a football manager?! Look at how we set up yesterday! The Kent move is a significant statement. He is by no means the finished article, but does have plenty ability and of the right mentailty and last by no means least, Stevie would need to set us up differently, as in attack!
