King Jela 20,662 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Miovski and Shankland would probably contribute more than Dessers and Roofe tbh. graeme_4 and El-Hadji Spit RFC 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has more potential imo. 4 years younger. I think he could do a good shift in Europe in time They are both worth a punt though. Down to how much it takes to sign them and wether their Rangers hating clubs will enter into negotiations. graeme_4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the bench. Danilio will be our top goal scorer this season when fit. Even Shankand knows he wouldn't be starting games as our first choice striker.

OrangeRab 3,031 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 10 hours ago, stevemac said: Not every signing is about sell on value That’s true but it also has to be at the core of our transfer model. 40% of our fees the last few seasons have been on guys 26 or over. So you’re going to struggle to recoup much if any of that after they’ve been with us for a few seasons. If we’re in a tight title race and one player could be the difference between the league or not and we’re confident of their impact. Signing someone like Shankland makes total sense. But we need to move away from spending big money on the profile of guys like Dessers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BlueSuedeSambas 54,449 Posted November 5, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2023 Aberdeen paid £500,000 for Miovski. they paid a low six figure fee for Ramandi, who they sold to Lecce and he’s now being linked with Inter Milan. What we need to do is get better at identifying players of that sort of profile. We sign too many project players from better leagues in the hope we can get them back to a level rather than guys who are doing well in smaller or comparable leagues to what we play in who are clearly on the way up.

I’ve seen him a few times and he does well but then also misses a lot of chances. Another player id have in the squad but for what Aberdeen would want it’s not really value for us OrangeRab and Laudrupsleftfoot 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

demise 3,574 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I think we should definitely sign a new striker in Jan. For the moment our main strikers have 5 goals each, Danilo and Dessers, and thats not a lot for early november. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDB14 2,809 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Not for me, he’s good but no spring chicken, would cost a few bob with no resale value and wouldn’t displace Danilo. If he was a few years younger with potential to step up a level I’d be more keen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moody Blue Legend 61,989 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Thought his holdup play was decent, strength has improved 10 fold but i still think Rangers need a better standard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sparrow 118 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I'm not his biggest fan but as a Scottish produced squad player, hitting his prime years (just turned 28), who is in and around the Scotland squad, it probably isn't the worst investment. He's the type who moves on and steps up to the next level so on that basis I'd have him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
