BlueSuedeSambas 56,462 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Perhaps a bit premature (and it would give me great pleasure to bin it if it doesn't happen) but it really looks like Bougherra could be off the Bordauex Now that will leave us with the task of finding yet another centre half who can come in and match the achievements of Cuellar and Bougherra. Can lightening really strike for a third time, I'm not so sure. But throw your suggestions in here and let the speculation/desperation begin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplythebest 11,453 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 He won't be replaced, Smith will just play a donkey who's already here like Webster or Broadfoot or even give Christian Dailly a new deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 56,462 Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 We're hardly going to go out and spend a decent transfer fee on a replacement are we? Everybody was saying that this time a year ago, yet Bougherra proved to be a snip at a third of the price we got for Cuellar. In all seriousness CB is the one area that I think Walter will get it right time and time again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 11,453 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Dado we were spending money last summer, it's a totally different situation, last summer we spent about 20 million in total i think. This summer i don't see where the transfer fees are going to come from, even to spend 2.5 million like we spent on Bougherra. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

papaguy51 941 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I think we'd need two centrebacks if Bougherra goes, especially with Dailly and Webster away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This summer i don't see where the transfer fees are going to come from, even to spend 2.5 million like we spent on Bougherra. was thinking this too, but lets hope walter gets the transfer fee to spend on a new CB, if thats the case i think its pretty stupid instead of just keeping bougherra, rather than selling him then giving walter the transfer money to maybe bring in another quality CB Lets see what happens in the coming days m8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotBear 144 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I just can't imagine us seeing a centre back at Ibrox for quite some time that has the pace and composure on the ball of Bougherra. Something we, and all other Scottish sides, have sadly lacked in recent years. I don't doubt Walter will bring in a decent centre back to replace him, but I doubt they'll have that pace which can be crucial at Champions League level.

fiddyp 15 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Since when is he going anywhere? We get linked with Trezeguet and everyone is like GTF but when someone is allegedly linked with Boogie we've accepted he's gone. I haven't seen any sourced info on this and it is a load of bollocks.
