Alex Rae - deal for a striker done

[Teddy bear]

Think it will be Zungu and Taylor. Hoping for Zungu and Roofe.

Who's Taylor?

 

[Trueblueal]

I must have missed understood then mate. Seemed the OP was saying Rae was revealing more.

Rae is saying a deal for a striker is done. He didn't expand and he wasn't asked a single question by anyone to get more detail. On a football program that was odd.

Seems it, aye. Wonder why he said it.

 

[Trueblueal]

When is said striker to be announced?

Its a race to see which arrives first. A striker or my 2 preorder tops

 

[Blue Max]

Was told this morning deal for Maja is due to happen in the next few days for around £3-4m. Didn’t really believe it but sounds like may have something in it.

I think I might ejaculate in my pants if we sign Maja, especially for that fee.

 

[Baloo72]

Literally anyone could come out and say a deal has been done considering Gerrard said he expects 1 or 2 in very soon.

Exactly

 

[Trueblueal]

Seems it, aye. Wonder why he said it.

Because he has been told a deal is done?

 

[bluestreak]

He said it LONG before COVID


No thanks.

On a serious note, if it's Roofe I'll be happy but very surprised. I'm still of the belief it shall be the Croatian lad Maric. I've convinced myself that short video of folk at Ibrox was him being shown around.

Hope you’re right

 

[GourockBear]

What’s this rumour?

Just a rumour passed on yesterday that it was nearly over the line but waiting on their league ending (3rd August)

 

[dtbdel]

We need a more mobile frontman one that works his arse off and could get on the end of the good balls from Tav and Barisic.

oh for a Hateley type of striker

 

[Trueblueal]

Just a rumour passed on yesterday that it was nearly over the line but waiting on their league ending (3rd August)

Interesting, where is this rumour coming from?

 

[Est1872]

If it was Taylor he'd have signed before pre-season not after the season started.

Such a weird one with him.

Would've thought it would be announced where he was going long before now!?

 

[JD1872]

Itten looks like a Kamberi clone and evens plays a bit like him although he has clearly got a higher pedigree.

He is like Kamberi premium edition

 

[GourockBear]

Interesting, where is this rumour coming from?

Literally just a pal mate, not claiming to be ITK. For what it’s worth he heard about Lille Interest in Alfie a week before it came out.

 

[BobbyShearer55-65]

Alex Rae that said we were getting fresh investors?

Major investment coming in from the far east.

Last January.

Still waiting for that one.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

oh for a Hateley type of striker

Yes, would be excellent we would be feared in the box now a lot of Barisic and Tavs crosses are wasted.

 

[Zwingli'sSausages]

Excitedly checks thread for news on Maja or Roofe.
Finds a YouTube clip of Curtis Main.

 

[Crispy Bacon]

We have a ST and CM done, if Alfie goes we have 2 st. We are in a good place. I’m almost rooting for Alfie sale because it will leave us so much better as a squad.

 

[Rodney Wallace]

Funded by Jim Mccoll investment Alex son aye?

Going on his previous statements the guys about as connected as I am.

 

[IbroxForever]

What’s this rumour?

Looked him up and he is defo a player we should go for.

 

[Barbarossa]

Lot of attention seekers in this thread.

No chance Maja is coming for 3/4m.

 

[The Gon]

Cedric Itten?

You heard something or just taking a punt?

 

[SuperGers07]

Itten bagged a hat trick last night

 

[Robert Prytz]

Such a weird one with him.

Would've thought it would be announced where he was going long before now!?

Who is Taylor?

 

[frankie_dux]

Has Albertz ever been right on these threads ?

he is never itk

 

[chilebear]

Itten looks like a Kamberi clone and evens plays a bit like him although he is clearly got a higher pedigree.

He is like Kamberi premium edition

Ive never heaed of him. Any clips?

 

[Rio Loyal]

We have a ST and CM done, if Alfie goes we have 2 st. We are in a good place. I’m almost rooting for Alfie sale because it will leave us so much better as a squad.

We do ?? I’ve not seen anything confirmed what’s the names ??

 

[The Gon]

Itten bagged a hat trick last night

If he was playing last night there's no way a deal is as close as has been suggested. Can't be him.

 

[chilebear]

Who is Taylor?

Dennis.

 

[mr_snrub]

Literally just a pal mate, not claiming to be ITK. For what it’s worth he heard about Lille Interest in Alfie a week before it came out.

Never heard of him, but good record in the Swiss league. Watched his highlights (which doesn't mean much) buts looks a good finisher and quite creative. Kind of rumour I can get behind.

 

[Robert Prytz]

Dennis.

Steven Davis will be pleased

 

[Rio Loyal]

Who is Taylor?

Lyle Taylor

 

[Crispy Bacon]

We do ?? I’ve not seen anything confirmed what’s the names ??

Said all along i’ll take nothing away from the club so if you’ve followed the transfer thread you’ll know.

 

[mr_snrub]

wire in

 

[Est1872]

Who is Taylor?

Lyle Taylor. Charlton striker, but out of contract now. Refused to play for Charlton when the English games restarted to avoid risking injury and scuppering his next move.

Still, no idea where he is going. We were one of the rumoured clubs to be in for him.

 

[Robert Prytz]

Lyle Taylor

Forgot about him.

 

[Rio Loyal]

Said all along i’ll take nothing away from the club so if you’ve followed the transfer thread you’ll know.

I have and can’t remember you telling anything, Can you give me a wee re fresh.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Cedric Itten looks to have had a very good season in 19/20, with 20 goals in 36 appearances. Season before disrupted by a medial crucial ligament injury.

Never seen him play (await the highlights reel) but he’s an interesting prospect.

 

[Mview83]

Just did a Twitter search for Cedric Itten and found a Galatasaray fan who wants them to sign Sam Cosgrove hahaha

[Diego Maradona]

What is clear from this is that Alex Rae should be ignored when it comes to inside info. As clueless as the rest of us.

 

[chilebear]

wire in

Thats a good clip of him. Do all those Swiss chaps look the same?

 

[Zizou]

no he isn’t

seen him say two potential signings and both were bullshit.

He actually is if you look at his past potential signings.

 

[mr_snrub]

Thats a good clip of him. Do all those Swiss chaps look the same?

Seems so, neutral territory

 

[Braeside58]

We definitely need a striker, especially if Alfie does leave, though I would prefer 2.

 

[Teddy bear]

We have a ST and CM done, if Alfie goes we have 2 st. We are in a good place. I’m almost rooting for Alfie sale because it will leave us so much better as a squad.

No idea who you are or if you're "itk" but I'm choosing to believe you.
2 strikers and a cm would be tremendous, if of course they are quality players.

Not ITK. Don’t claim to be. Have a mate who works with the first team daily. Got passed info, was given info on Mebude, Alfie and some targets, bits here and there. All seem to be correct so far. I’ve always said i’ll never take anything away from the club with regards to announcements so will leave it down to club to announce anything but what I’ve been told leads me to believe we are in a very good place. As always with FF - it’s take it or leave it - Everyone is an adult and can choose to believe.

 

[cooperman]

wonder if it could be Lyle Taylor

 

[BIG JAI]

Major investment coming in from the far east.

Last January.

Still waiting for that one.

i mean in fairness they had to pull out of the newcastle deal first

 

[CumbrianBear]

Curious to know if the 2 that are apparently close are signings we would of made even if Morelos stayed. And that any other striker we bring in will only happen if Morelos goes and will it be that player that we spend a large chunk of the fee we get for Alfredo.

You heard any names pal ?
