Its a position that really should be about bringing in better than whats already there, not stop gaps and fillers. Davies moving on will certainly help but regardless of that we've not strengthened arguably our weakest position last season. We've just added numbers. And 1 did go out already, Helander, and he should have been / should be replaced by better than just Balogun who also replaces the injured King (who himself isn't at the level needed yet). I'm keen for Davies to go if we get a good experienced established replacement in. Last thing we need is another project player like Panzo who wasn't even selected to start coventrys biggest games of the season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GersInCanada 7,775 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 I had never heard of him before he came on v Newcastle. The positive impression I got that night was reinforced yesterday. See no reason not to promote him to the 1st team squad for next season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a friendly but he didn't look out of place. With a smaller squad size hopefully a few of these younger players will be around the first team more and get some game time.

Ted E Bayer 484 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Looks solid. He's appears to have all the attributes. Physically commanding and good technical ability. An exciting prospect. This is quite harsh, and I might be on my own here but, I thought he would have put a foot in to avoid the cross that leads to Newcastle's second. He'll learn from it though. Looking forward to seeing him more. Zappa6995 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieMacRFC 850 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 I wouldn't send him on loan, I'd be getting him into the 1st team when possible to gain experience maybe from the bench but deffo against some of the lesser teams, if he can be the next Bassey then don't hold him back, happens too often with young players who are good enough but age seems to see them get held back.

bluenoz 30,971 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Young players go on loan to get valued game time and toughen up against senior pros. I don't see that with Yfeko. He is physically ready. He looks like a better prospect than King imo. I would keep him in the squad as 4th choice and who knows, he may end up forcing his way into the starting line-up like Bassey did. threshold 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangersross 6,530 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Pleasantly surprised by how ready for first-team football he looks. Think he’d be very well suited to playing on the left side of a back three. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Ps I really do hope Matondo proves us all wrong but I doubt that will happen) His touch for what should have been a certain shot on target and a goal for the majority of decent players says it all for me. Superb pass and that first touch leading to loss of possession is a measure of the boy, unfortunately. Ball control should be bread and butter for professional footballer but it seems some get on with raw pace at times. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play if people have seen this boy play regularly. For me ive seen him play, what 60 mins or so in 2 pre season friendly matches. Was impressed but based on that dont feel capable of making a judgement. Smile 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's true I think what is wrong with us as supporters is we all want to see that youth players breaking through and making it at Rangers. He's a good player has talent but behind a few very good players in his position. Good that he's showed Beale what he's got all the same.
