Yea absolutely bonkers. You just know he will end up back down south and play loads of games same as Helander, mystery foot problem that disappeared not long after we released him.

Loyal72 12,103 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I've got to be honest, he's probably due to wrap being a professional footballer. For our sakes and his. delparlane, BlueAvenger and Albion 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess a weeks a long time in football! You could see how pissed off he was walking up the tunnel, shirt off and absolutely raging - guy is desperate to play. We’re not a charity. He is physically unable to fulfil the duties we pay him for. Our patience and understanding has been more than most employers. Time for a serious heart to heart - he can have no further part in our future. Two strikers (one purchase, one loan) needed in January imo.

One way or another, we were always going to be paying off his contract, and no club was going to take him off our hands with his persistent injury issues. If we’re paying the full salary anyway (because why would Roofe agree to less?) we might as well get use of him when we occasionally can. Doing that got us the goal that got us into the next Europa League round. JCDBigBear and Bad Robot 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyal72 12,103 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 To those saying he secured us big money in Europe, aye that's fair enough - but we pay money to sign players, wages, fees, whatever. I'd guess with the amount we've been paying him, either through ourselves or insurance, he's due us some cashback. But absolutely needs to retire. Fucked himself doing nothing, really.

Badger 8,819 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Fit and match sharp he is probably a player that is better than we could usually get and when fully fit is probably the best striker in Scotland. But..... Barring a couple of short spells, he has never been fit and match sharp in 3.5yrs he has been at Rangers. He has been a waste of a wage.

If he could stay fit he would be outstanding, there is a great player in him which is the most frustrating thing. You know you have a player that should and could be scoring important goals getting paid a big wage with little return.

Two strikers (one purchase, one loan) needed in January imo. No ones suggesting we're a charity - but you sign players you accept the risk - and I assume you have them insured so to some extent his wages might be covered. No idea. Has he been a success in terms of injuries, obviously not, but to suggest, as people on here have, that he's 'stealing a wage'. As if he's manipulating the situation. I think that's total bs. He's clearly leaving at the end of the season - wish him well, though doubt he has much longer as a pro and wouldn't be surprised to see him retire at the end of the season rangersross and Albion 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
