You are ignoring that we have an additional 7 players that we have signed, 6 if you exclude Davis. The saved wages you mention above have probably already been eaten up by the new signings.

Sometimes you wonder whether people have never seen it all before.... where a decision seems to have been made, only for it to be reneged upon... indeed, very close to home, as in the very same person this thread is discussing, about 15 years ago asked Liverpool for a transfer request and said he wanted to move to Chelsea..... only to then renege and stay at Liverpool merely a day later.

Correct, Liverpool released him, so no payments from Liverpool.

Really ? If that’s the case we’ve won a watch with Ojo too ??

Anyone see Aribo’s video from the Portugal training camp ?? out wide right, cut in from the wing, onto the left foot and pinged one I to the top corner, literally in off both post and bar. the lad can definitely play on the right hand side as an inverted winger

Yeah, I remember SG saying that. I was just pointing out that Charlton used him, in that one game that I saw, on the right hand side.

Stolen from Twitter..... "We've made him a fantastic and magnificent offer. If he rejects, we move on"

I've only seen him the once, which was in the League One Play Off final against Sunderland. And all I would say is "wait till you see him play". Looked to me like the best player on the park. Even before we were linked with him, and whilst watching that game I was saying to myself "I wouldn't mind Rangers picking this lad up". He's fast, he's direct, he's skillful, he's strong, he's prepared to have a pop from outside the box and he oozes the confidence to take players on and commit them. Not 100% sure where we would play him but, in that game against Sunderland, they actually played him as an inverted attacking midfielder - played on the right hand side for most of the game. I would hold back on your skepticism until you've seen the lad play. I, personally, am very excited by this signing.

Any truth to Aribo being in Glasgow for talks ?

Saw Aribo in the play off final and he was a handful all game. wouldnt be disappointed with him ! Turnbull is a no go - Motherwell want “fat in excess of our record transfer fee of £1.8 million”. Won’t happen.

Reading and comprehension clearly not strong traits of yours.

You may want to read back and see that dB said Gazza and Laudrup were "unproven at Rangers", whatever that means. YOU then changed that from being unproven to being risky. The whole initial discussion was about Polster being unproven, not about him being a risk

Seriously ? Both Laudrup and Gazza could be considered risks. But considered unproven ? Absolutely no chance. IMO of course.

Explain to me how Matt Polster could possibly be "proven to SG" ? Maybe if you hadn't used Laudrup and Gascoigne YOU would have a point. It's tiring you defending players and their worthiness based on the fact that "SG signed him" - you are almost making it out that SG is infallible in the transfer market - and that also is clearly untrue.

Kamara, Tavernier and Morelos. All going for a combined 30 mill (possibly). Who would take it ? Tough one for me - we need funds but, at the same time, those 3 could very well be the spine of our team to win the league next season. of the 3 the one I’d be most willing to let go would be Morelos. I think he would be easier to replace than the other 2. Tav offers so much going forward and would be very difficult to replace. Kamara is such a cultured player I could see him as a mainstay. He’s also young so there’s plenty of room for improvement which also means increased value.

Eh ? “Craig likes debate for debates sake” ??? Take your time, go back and read and you’ll find it was YOU who questioned my remark that’s Polster is unproven. That’s YOU making debate for debates sake. At least try to get it right. Its ok to admit you’re wrong sometimes dB.

Ok then, I’ll bite. where has Polster proven himself to SG ? Aside from uS college football ? SG signed Ejaria too, that turned out well. just because they are SG signings doesn’t mean he can’t get them wrong. Polster is unproven - and no amount of “but SG signed him” proves otherwise.

Doesn’t matter if Pep signed him. He’s still unproven. not sure why you’re questioning it when it’s clearly true.

Flanagan may be a RB and may defend better than Tav - but we will lose a lot of our attacking threat if we lose Tav - completely different players. Polster - completely unproven

I fell for that earlier too Ian... It is a spoof account

Tav for 10 mill would be good business, but he would be very tough to replace

Interestingly Ojo mentioned on his Twitter about the growth he had made whilst being on loan the last season or two and said “next season”.... this tweet was “liked” by Michael Beale

Somebody from the club must have made a faux pas.... I read it on their Twitter yesterday and seems it has been taken down..... EDIT : I see it was a fake account - sorry folks.... wasn't paying attention as I have a lot of "stuff" going on right now.

Kent confirmed as back next season on loan

Now confirmed by the Club that Kent will be back next season on loan.
