Ibroxblue 122 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Rangers will ask £7.5million for goalkeeper Allan McGregor if English Premier League clubs seek to lure him away from Scotland. The Ibrox No 1 is the most valuable remaining asset in Walter Smith's squad and is expected to attract offers during the January transfer window. Rangers will not want to part with McGregor cheaply but, with no European income following the Champions League calamity in Kaunas, a significant bid could prove tempting. The 26-year-old signed a new five-year contract last summer which runs to 2013 and therefore helps hold up his transfer market value. Fellow Scotland cap Neil Alexander is already in situ as a capable deputy and there have been indications that Smith's scouting staff are checking out other keepers, including Partick Thistle's Northern Ireland international Jonny Tuffey.... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/...r.html?ITO=1490 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,789 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Nobody will pay 7.5 million for McGregor. there have been indications that Smith's scouting staff are checking out other keepers, including Partick Thistle's Northern Ireland international Jonny Tuffey. While Tuffy is a talented young keeper, I think it would be very bold to expect him to make the step up from Partick Thistle to Rangers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 If only but if we sold McGregor then we would have to go out and buy a new number 1 - I wouldn't feel confident with Alexander as our number 1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jelle1880 225 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Seems to be fair, I have faith in Alexander and McGregor is worth it (especially to the milk cow that the EPL is ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GersDude90 1 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Exactly what we should be doing. The EPl clubs tend to pay over the odds for players, might as well Milk it. I think Tuffeys gonna turn into a quality keeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMWWBK 0 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Nacho Novo being linked with Real Madrid. Alan McGregor being linked with a multi million move to one of the EPL's big spenders.

mrmytto 220 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Weren't Tottenham willing to pay £9 for him in the summer? 9 quid?! ha alexander is our true number 1 Nah. IF we manage to sell McGregor for £7.5 million, we can buy a decent keeper, and also some creative players, it would be worth it! The sale of Cuellar got us a few good players. It might be bad though, as it would boost his ego even further! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmytto 220 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I just wouldn't feel confident with Alexander as our number 1. Nor would I Muff. With that money, we'd be able to bring in a good goalkeeper from the EPL, some of the sub goalkeepers are good aswell! We'd be laughing all the way to the bank.

BlueSuedeSambas 53,789 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 If I was Martin Bain I'd be begging an EPL side to make an offer for McGregor. There are a number of keepers who are not only better than McGregor, but also a number who don't carry the same baggage that he does. My choice would be Bogdan Lobont as he's better at organsing and commanding his box, has better distribution and would be availble for less than we would recieve for McGregor.

Adam 0 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 OMG!!! Just a bit harsh lads! This time last year we all thought McGregor was worth over 9 mill because Sunderland paid that for Gordon!! the man just needs to regain the confidence of last year...he is an outstanding keeper when he is on top form, last year before his injury proved that.
