Ted E Bayer 540 Posted Tuesday at 15:04 Share Posted Tuesday at 15:04 With news that we were in for Davy Klaassen, whose allegedly opted for Ajax, are there any CM, CDM midfielders available on a free that we could pick up to strengthen the squad?

KingKirk 26,461 Posted Tuesday at 15:12 Share Posted Tuesday at 15:12 Unless something happens in the next week I think it's very unlikely now. As was said on H&H it'll take anyone 4 weeks to get full fit then its only 4-6 weeks till January so no real benefit Ted E Bayer and rangersross 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Introduced 20 mins at a time over another four weeks. Then out with a hamstring. GlasgowRangersFC, gj923, rangersross and 6 others 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point, there's also the Ikea furniture build to add to the mix, that will rule out any new signing for one or two games.

Import Export 7 Posted Tuesday at 16:28 Share Posted Tuesday at 16:28 Pretty disheartened that we missed out on Klassen as I think he's a tremendous player. However, there's still time to add reinforcements. ayrshireranger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 56,372 Posted Tuesday at 16:32 Share Posted Tuesday at 16:32 No player worth any value is signing for us now when they can’t even play in Europe. It’s what we’ve got until January at the earliest and even that will be dependent on others leaving first I suspect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moody Blue 10,005 Posted Tuesday at 16:35 Share Posted Tuesday at 16:35 Having made a big deal about getting the wage bill down, I fail to see why we’ll increase it by bringing in a free transfer of any quality as they’ll want thousands p/w. Like it or not, we’re going with what we’ve got until Jan now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris182 6,525 Posted Tuesday at 18:18 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:18 Klaassen would have been a boost Ted E Bayer 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somemightsay7 3,098 Posted Tuesday at 18:19 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:19 There's just no point. Any player available now will be older, take weeks to get anywhere near match fit and unlikely to be part of our long term plans. If our clubs strategy is to now focus on young up and coming players then lets actually commit to it for once and see it through.

PromDeAnglais 6,731 Posted Tuesday at 22:02 Share Posted Tuesday at 22:02 Agree with @Somemightsay7 There is zero fucking point signing some 30+ on a free. This season is a write off so why spunk needless wages, it's money we don't have and it's not as if they'll have any meaningful impact on the result of this season. By time they're up to speed it'll be January, the league will be over and we'll be crashing out of Europe. Pointless. OrangeRab 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malkytfp1 19,624 Posted yesterday at 08:55 Share Posted yesterday at 08:55 Not for me. Stick to our guns that this season is a downsizing season for the sake of the future of our club. However we must start utilizing what we have. Would rather see the likes of Bailey Rice, Lovelace etc getting game time over some European journeymen stealing a wage. A proper build for the future.

An experienced playmaker is a huge gap in our squad though. Ted E Bayer 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
