Prso's headband 35,783 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 There’s plenty of players out of contract at the end of this season which is brilliant news. The end of the Warburton and Caixinha not good enough era Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Looks to me like the Club has updated its website today with a listing of the first team squad. They've been ultra quick to add Kent to the list of forwards. Interesting that they've kept Murphy's name in the first team squad. That'd imply he might yet make a contribution this season. No mention of Grezda though. Is he now firmly rooted in the netherworld of development team football where as an international player he can only now get a game with the youngsters and those over-age players who can be selected for these games. That's going to do his international career a whole power of good, and introduce a bit of a risk of a dissatisfied player in the development squad. Looks like its been left to Murty to pick up the Grezda pieces. Some piece of work from Allen too where it looks like he couldn't organise either a transfer or a loan deal for the player. An expensive asset who is no longer an asset but an expensive liability - on the books until somehow, someday his contract can be ended or a transfer organised. Nobody's winning out of this unsatisfactory arrangement - unless that is Grezda is just happy to take the money and do the minimum for it for as long as the Rangers money keeps rolling in.

The Blues 375 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Grezda transfer was strange. Did anyone watch him play before we signed him. Did we give him a proper chance. How many games did he actually start. The fact we can’t even move him on for nothing even although he is a current international. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of those mentioned in OP Holt, Rossiter, Alnwick and Herrera all expire at the end of season. Murphy contracted until ‘21 and Grezda until ‘22.

Grezda until 2022 is an absolute joke of a move from our side, didn't realise it was so long How can we give a guy a 4 year contract when he was just coming back from a long term injury and we couldn't have seen much of him playing before that, terrible business Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe want to keep him around given Jones injury? Valance1690 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I know what you mean but we've been burned before and surely this is lesson now to play it a bit safe when it comes to players we don't really know By all means take a punt on them but this cunt is just eating up a wage now until we can get him punted. Really don't think we'll ever see him again regardless of how long Jones is out for! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grezda was replaced by Murty at halftime a couple of weeks ago for basically loitering on the pitch,Your last sentence answers the question I'd say.
