Muirheadbear 1,483 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 The World Cup draw has thrown up an interesting scenario. Boogy will be playing against England this Summer. History has shown that player's transfer fees can go mad, especially if that player has had a good World Cup. His profile has the potential to rocket during the World Cup. (El Hadj Douif - 10m remember?!) My point is this; should we hang onto Boogy (if that's possible) until the Summer or take the first decent offer this January? I'm not opening a discussion on whether we should sell Boogy for his recent indicretions, moreover it's basically a cold business decision about a player who will (he wants to go soon anyway) leave us some short time from now anyway. I reckon holding onto him makes sense (bank willing) until the World Cup is over (also help our league campaign this season). Over to you???? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Brown Brogue Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I think this is the exact scenario the player himself will be hoping for. Cuellar had an amazing season in Europe to boost his profile and get his move to the Premiership, Bougherra hasnt had that so the World Cup will be his shop window, as will the ACON in January.

Muff 245 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Keep him, unless a ridiculous bid comes in - he's one of our best player, and with the games we have during the AFCON, we should be able to cope without him! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShootSpeedKillLight 0 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Would be an amazingly stupid decision to sell him in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasGers 96 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 We should keep him as long as we can; I would only sell him for silly money Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott-RFC 308 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 His value will rocket if he plays well in Englands group at the WC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del 667 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Even if his attitude isnt perfect it would be stupid to sell him now! His value will go up by at least £1-2m once he has played in the AFCON and the World Cup and if keeping our best defender for 6months to earn £6-8m rather than £3-5m then even on a purely business sense its a no brainer! Unless we get a bid of around £5-7m for him in Januray we should keep him until the summer! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clashcitystalker 27 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 He will be worth more after the World Cup. So we'll sell him in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del 667 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 He will be worth more after the World Cup. So we'll sell him in January. That sounds like Rangers logic to me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulRFC1 115 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Another dilemma Keep Boogie till summer then sell him and let boyd go for free or sell boogie in january and get boyd a new contract ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dextor 0 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Nothing has changed as far as i'm concerned. We don't need to sell unless silly money is offered. I want Boogie to stay because he's our best player and will help us win the title, simples. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdasyn 431 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Keep onto him as long as he's playing good football. He was outstanding on Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

caseyjones 3,009 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 He, as part of a poor Algerian team, will be worth more before the WC. Algeria are only in there due to their good results at home and will be the whipping boys of Group C. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
