That's not true, celtic are 3 points better off after 21 games than they were last year after 21 games.Em. They are a point worse off through 21 games this year than last year. They are about the same. Its us who havent been as good. Thats the difference.
I wouldn’t be overly surprised if that’s where our back up RB comes from. One of the EPL reserve/B teams. Worked well with Bassey and we could go down the route again.Saw on Twitter that our youths/B team played a friendly vs the Man Utd U23 team down there yesterday. Potentially assessing a loanee from them?

I remember we beat a team in Gibraltar in ELQ and Gerrard said post match that we were 'close' to a signing.
It turned out to be Helander and the players name broke an hour or two after the game.
Really hoping for similar tonight.
Italian media are saying it looks likely both will now stay with Bologna. Olsen to Brugge off at the momentBologna chairman has been quoted again talking about Skov Olsen and Mitchell Dijks saying that they’ve “received proposals but they are not adequate”.
I’ve seen photos of Bologna’s training today and Olsen is training on his own separately from the squad. When these things happen usually something gives. I’d be amazed if Olsen plays for Bologna again this season in these circumstances.
If he doesn’t go to Brugge I’d bet good money he’ll be loaned out. And if Rangers have any genuine interest in him, I’m sure it’s a loan-to-buy that the club will be looking for.
I’m not.Well your wrong
Interesting, clearly the Brugge deal ain’t happening because it was reported as “close” about a week ago.Italian media are saying it looks likely both will now stay with Bologna. Olsen to Brugge off at the moment
Known, or are you guessing?We’ll probably bring in a Dutch based RW/AM known to Gio on loan with an option to buy.
The closer it gets to deadline day the more and more adequate the proposal will become, whether it is our proposal or Brugge's. As you say, it's not often a player goes from training on his own to being back with the squad.Bologna chairman has been quoted again talking about Skov Olsen and Mitchell Dijks saying that they’ve “received proposals but they are not adequate”.

A Rolls Royce player no doubt, but a bit old now.Yes with the name Xavi

I’m pretty sure they need to cash to fund their own signings. A loan just isn’t going to happen.Loan with option to buy for ASO would be the dream.
If no one else can strike a deal they might just want him away. Especially if he's training on his own.I’m pretty sure they need to cash to fund their own signings. A loan just isn’t going to happen.
As I said above a big factor is the fact that Olsen is training on his own. In a World Cup year. It’s very very hard for a player to regain the manager’s trust and be reintegrated into the squad in this instance.I’m pretty sure they need to cash to fund their own signings. A loan just isn’t going to happen.

Yeah I think it was him and Dijks, said they should be more like Dominguez. I imagine Dijks isn't happy at game time because Hickey is first choice now.Didn’t the manager say he doesn’t want him & the other guy to play again, because they aren’t commited to Bologna LD ?
We're in desperate need of a blurry check-in screen image from Bologna airport
He'll be afforded the luxury of the same bedding-in period all new players get when moving to Rangers. The first 20 min of their debut.Even if poor Skov Olsen signed, he’s been hyped up to near insufferable levels on various platforms. He’s on a hiding to nothing.
And most of these folk won’t have ever seen him in any great detail.

Any truth in the WhatsApp rumour of Declan Gallagher to Hearts which you’d imagine would speed up Souttar to us?
Can't see it. Would cost them more for Gallagher than they are likely to get for Souttar I'd imagine, given he has a bit on his contract.Any truth in the WhatsApp rumour of Declan Gallagher to Hearts which you’d imagine would speed up Souttar to us?
Replacing Souttar with a big diddy like Declan 'baseball bat' Gallagher. That's some downgrade.
That’s pretty decent considering Ofoborh has been judged by some after zero minutes in the pitch.He'll be afforded the luxury of the same bedding-in period all new players get when moving to Rangers. The first 20 min of their debut.
Jamie Paterson worth a look? Having a really good season with Swansea (8 goals 4 assists) but seems to be wanting a move so hasn’t been played the last few games.
He’s 30 so probably wouldn’t be a long term solution. Russell Martin said he’ll leave if someone meets their valuation, depends what that is I suppose.
utterly removed from what we are trying to achieve.
The players I would expect us to sign in the 30 + age bracket would be utter exceptions, Defoe, Davis, McGregor, I would expect a squad of players like that supplemented with players we will be looking to develop and sell with a far younger age profile.How’d you mean?

You really should put, /s after that comment.If we are going to sign Skov Olsen it is almost unforgiveable Itten was given the number 11 IMO, whoever made that decision should have their role under review.
Clinging onto that hope, although it does seem likely he'll end up at Brugge. Wonder why that move seemed to collapse when it was all but done?
I disagree. There’s nothing wrong with football fans sharing opinions on players they’d like our club to sign. Would you rather people made a thread anytime they had a player in mind?
If this thread was only about legit rumours and links it would be about two pages long. If any posters here glance at a name and immediately assume we are after them then more fool those posters. With a few clicks you can find the source posts of such names and in a matter of seconds.
I find it strange that so many are intent on policing this thread. I can understand scum chat being banned but really find it weird when people vent frustrations about the thread going off topic and there being no rumours.
well in that case, I'd like us to try and sign Mbappé he's on a free soon after all, and if we can't get him try Salah I heard he's no happy at Liverpool, and De Bruyne would be good for our midfield. there's already a place for what you're talking about, it's called fantasy football, I'd rather have just two pages on the transfer thread with worthwhile/realistic info, than pages upon pages of fiction, which is what it really is, for folks who like that kind of stuff they should start another transfer thread and call it the fiction transfer threadI disagree.

Wonder if the weekend would hold that up as well, meaning players will need to be signed tomorrow or FridaySomething was mentioned on Skysports about any non Uk players brought into Britain would need to be registered 48 hrs before deadline due to Brexit.
Starting to think now the Brugge offer is nonsense.Bologna have not accepted an offer from anyone. Brugge are no closer to the signing than we are.
