ian1964 10,458 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Arsenal sent a scout to Hearts' meeting with Rangers yesterday, with the north London club understood to be monitoring the form of Allan McGregor. Aston Villa, Manchester United and Sevilla have all been linked with McGregor, the Rangers goalkeeper who is expected to generate a transfer fee of about �£5m if, as is likely, he departs Ibrox at the end of the season. Madjid Bougherra, the Rangers defender who has been linked with Arsenal in the past, also played in Hearts' 1-0 win at Tynecastle. McGregor, who turns 29 this month, was a virtual spectator despite his team's defeat. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal's scouts continue to study him as they look to solve what has proved a troublesome position for Ars�¨ne Wenger. McGregor's age may count against him, with Wenger generally in favour of signing younger players. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/jan/23/allan-mcgregor-hearts-rangers? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Fingers crossed that he's still here come the first game in February. He'd be a great buy for ANY club and a serious loss for us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metlika 0 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Poor figure, if we sell him for anything less than �£7m then there is something wrong, maybe more. Also the papers take on the situation "and if likely he will leave", ffs really poor journalism as he has a contract and surely our debt would be way down on the figures currently. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totti 0 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Should be worth �£9 or 10 million but knowing us we'll fuck it up somehow. Does anyone know if McGregor has any particular wish to stay at the club? We only get fed lies and horse shit so who knows. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Would be a cracking signing for Arsenal and agree huge loss for us. A figure below 8 million is laughable. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyk 158 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 SSN reporting Arsenal, Man City and another EPL team have all bid around �£5m for him..........:sad: Really is a depressing time.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascender 352 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I'm surprised he's still here given all the alleged interest in him that there's been for some time which maybe tells you all you need to know about some of the crap written by papers. As to his value, he's only worth what someone is willing to pay for him and in making their valuation they'll take in to account that we're in the financial shit and also play in the SPL, but on the up-side, that he's got a while left on his contract and is happy here. I think 5M - 7M is realistic. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? He's a good GK but Alexander is a more than able back up/number 1. I'd be disappointed to see him go but not half as disappointed when Miller left or if/when Boogie leaves. Selling McGregor for �£5m is a joke though. I'd be holding out for no less than �£8m. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they should just sign Alexander then and leave Shagger with us:tongue: 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
