DIESEL RFC 32 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I'm very meh on this dealThe idea of spending about £4 million on a centre half when the team is crying out for 2 midfielders and a striker is very troublingI would settle for a partnership of Bartley and Goian and us spending the Juhasz money on positions we desperately need to strengthenWhat the fuck does meh mean?that even a word?

DBBTB 29,468 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I am with you on that.A central midfielder, a winger and a striker are all of a higher concern just now.And even then there would probably still be enough money left over to pick up an experienced centre half who's current club would be willing to let him go for free.Any centre half or midfielder with half an ounce of talent should be able to come up here and use their experience to basically coast it, providing they apply themselves properly. Guys like Majstorovic, Weir, Dubbery, Moravcik, Berg, Morris & Eremenko have all shown that in fairly recent seasons.The fact that we could pick up a number of guys of that ilk this for small/nominal fees suggests we should spend why money we do have on real quality for the final third.

demise 1,328 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I would rather bring Cuellar for 2mil and spend the rest and some extra cash on central midfielder and a striker. Link to post Share on other sites
Nicolas Cage 31 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I'd echo the statements of a few posters above in saying that we shouldn't be spending 4 million euros on a centre back at the moment. Bartley & Goian is a good enough partnership for the SPL. Partner for Davis, partner for Jelavic and a left midfielder should be where we invest our serious money. Link to post Share on other sites
BELFAST FINEST 7 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 really starting to worry about what kind of team we`l hav this season.. whyte get the well needed funds out please. Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz52 11,837 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 It's easy enough saying we want a wingers, striker etc.. Incase no-one has noticed, we struggle to complete any transfer, I'll take what I can get at the moment if it's strengthening the team and Roland Juhasz would do that Link to post Share on other sites
Amac9 2,060 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 We need a top class CB to replace Bougherra. Bartley is IMO not ready to play 30+ games a season, Goian has suffered in the past with injuries, Weir is 41 now and Broadfoot should not be allowed to play.But is spending nearly £4m on a 28 year old CB good business? We badly need a CM, LW and a good ST. Link to post Share on other sites

We badly need a CM, LW and a good ST.That's how I'd summarise this possible transfer. Juhasz would be a good replacement for Bougherra but not at nearly £4M. We've sold a 28 year old centre back in Bougherra for £1.7M and to replace him with another 28 year old centre back for nearly £4M doesn't seem like good business. Link to post Share on other sites
Boab 73 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 1201 FOOTBALL: - BBC Sport's Chris McLaughlin on Twitter: "Rangers have not ended their interest in Roland Juhasz after a bid was rejected by Anderlecht. No new bid today though." Link to post Share on other sites
gandhisflip 5 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 We sold a 28yr old CH who was in his last year of contract and didn't want to be here. We'd be signing a 28yr old centre half on a 4yr deal for c. £3m. From all accounts this lad is top drawer and if we got him around that price our spending would be roughly:-£3m Juhasz£1.5m Wallace£0.5m Goian£0.4m Ortiz£5.4m Ins£1.7m Boogie£0.9m Adam£2.6m OutsSo even with Juhasz we'd only have spent net £2.8m to £3m. I'd imagine leaving us funds for 2 more decent signings - a striker and a left winger if Whyte's noises about front loading investment are genuine. Link to post Share on other sites
Amac9 2,060 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 If the are looking for an extra £200,000 then I don't see us walking away yet. It's not as if they are looking for an awful lot more money but we should not be paying he extra money after they told us a price that they deemed acceptable.Keep the same bid in and try and flog them one of our duds.

We've sold a 28 year old centre back in Bougherra for £1.7M and to replace him with another 28 year old centre back for nearly £4M doesn't seem like good business.Agreed, would rather get a decent striker in for that money. While i'd like to strengthen at the back, I think we have enough to just about cover us for now. Link to post Share on other sites
Goianegra 3,387 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Bartley/Goian may well be good enough, but what do we do when either of them is injured. We only have a 41 year old and Broadfoot who we all know isn't good enough. We could play Bartley in the holding role, push Davis into a more attacking role and partner Goian with Juhasz then we wouldn't need a CM.

Loan Ranger 48 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Quite a big deal being made in Hungarian and Belgian press about the 'promise made to Juhasz' ie - if bid amount comes in that he would be allowed to leave.I can see this forcing Anderlechts hand - really bad press for them...would imagine it would put players off signing for them.
