With him seemingly playing in a different position now, can't see King playing another game at us for CB if ever again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be hard mind you He took about 20 touches in the box whenever he got a chance. He's never going to be a penalty box striker. If Dessers isn't good enough, neither is Danilo. Danilo just avoided the criticism by being unavailable for most of Beale's worst games. Jamie0202 and MacBoyd 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he scored the winner against Betis. I can't really believe that having watched both players, you can't spot the fact that Roofe is a better finisher than Dessers.

bluenoz 32,522 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Danilo is 10x the player Dessers could only dream of becoming. He was rusty coming back from a severe head injury whilst playing with a mask, but I've seen enough to see he has better ball control and movement and can actually head a ball (something you expect from a striker, which Dessers is poor at). Yes, he missed a few golden opportunities, but he will put them away when fully fit. Expecting big things from him next year if he can stay injury-free.

Badger 9,096 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Roofe - when fit and firing - was the best striker in Scotland. Problem is..... It's all one being that when you are almost never fit and firing. For >50% of his time at Rangers, a 40yr old me would have contributed just as much (i.e. absolutely fuck all). That said, I'm unconvinced Roofe will ever get back to his best..... Or has the heart to even try. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah agree - he also looks like he can’t really run, like he’d permanently hobbling - absolutely zero chance we offer him another contract.

rangersross 6,724 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Roofe's got to be one of our best paid players. Excited to see who we bring in this summer when that salary's freed up (and hopefully Lammers + Dessers off the wage bill too).

I’m hoping it’s a good sign the manager mentioned checking Serling and Mcausland for Thursday’s game. If it was really bad at the end of the hibs game he wouldn’t have mentioned Thursday.
