Re: The Transfer Window Rumours thread

there were Rangers fans on twitter earlier saying they should hold out for 20m for Matondo.

I did say he has improved dramatically this season .

The daily Record is reporting Rangers will still have to pay the majority of his wages if he goes to Blackburn

You read this board , same as I do . There so many experts on social media , the knowledge of some Rangers fans is only equaled by the knowledge on here.....

i can remember a couple of games for Cercle Bruges he looked absolutely unplayable, single handedly destroyed teams - then nothing for long periods

Right then a couple of days left of the window so what would we like? For me a young striker from a Premier League club along with one with a bit of a track record. I think we have enough in the wide areas including youngsters so probably another progressive central midfielder.

The person on Twitter who has got a lot of things right in this window says we have offers in for a Senaglese forward who is out of contract and a Leicester player - got a fair idea who the latter is, but I’ve not a clue about the former.

Worth a read perhaps in light of some of our recent signings.

We’re being linked to this guy on Twitter. He’s Senegalese, not sure if he’s out of contract though.

No disrespect to you, but the football cliche 'good business' is just plain daft.

Let's be honest a signing only becomes good business if the player is either a success or sold at a profit.

not every move like this will be successful, but that doesn't mean they aren't good business at the outset.

we could continue signing 29-30 year olds and never have any chance or recouping the transfer fees. at least by buying some players with the potential to increase in value a lot we have some possibility of it paying off. Even if 1 in 10 signings like this make it big it's probably still worthwhile given the elevated fees premier league teams pay. and the fact we can offer him a season in Belgium to progress without having to struggle for game time here is also pretty sensible

Re: The Transfer Window Rumours thread

Is the loan to Kortrijk a way of avoiding what I still call FFP penalties I wonder?
