He does when you look at the stats.He absolutely doesn’t, which is obviously the opinion of the manager also.
Haha Harry winks ffs.Like the wee man, if we can get £4m for him I’d take it, let him go and then use that cash for buying a no 8.
Harry Winks is on my list, if he can come for £30k a week plus a fee of £10m with UCL qualification I’d be happy.
Still think we have 4-5 outgoings, with 2-3 coming in.
That’s not Sakala either as he has played a lot more than just 20 minute cameosWho's giving us 21 goal contributions from the bench for the last 20 minutes?
Colak and Morelos are the strikers they are the big targets. . If you watch fashions interview gio has already told him he would be used in wide positions in a very candid interview he says gio prefers a bigger target manWe don’t play to a big target man all the time?
Sorry you're right. 12 goals in 2182 match minutes. A goal every 182 minutes on the pitch, that's not counting assists. Second top last season per minute. So as I said, who is replacing that for a few million?That’s not Sakala either as he has played a lot more than just 20 minute cameos
I know I’m delusional on that one.Haha Harry winks ffs.
Our system should be more reliant on dominance & predictability of outcomes, rather than hopeful and random occurrences. Gio is building a side based on more predictable but overwhelming play. Sakala just doesn’t fit this Rangers side anymore. He’s a lovely guy & has surely contributed, but his overall play can’t be trusted at the top.Easy enough to say take the £3m but then you need to think about who is available in that bracket to replace him that is capable of his minutes to goals ratio which is a goal every 2 games. Not easy to replace that within a squad.
He had them on the ropes at the piggery as well.I like the chaos he brings to the opposition, semi v them as a perfect example.
His stats were comfortably better than Kent last year domestically.Who's giving us 21 goal contributions from the bench for the last 20 minutes?
Hilarious, pathetic comment.FS11. Sometimes dreams die.

Gerrard chased Simpson. Managers get it wrong. We shall see.Not sakala either as Gio doesn’t rate him clearly
Agree. As nice a guy as Fashion Jr is and as much as he's scored a fair few goals he doesn't have the footballing intelligence or composure to become a top player. We can definitely improve and if we can get £3m for him I'd bite their hand off.I think the Sakala one is a real dilemma, and agree with so many points made above on both sides of the argument.
Frustrating yes, but there’s a Ted McMinn factor at play with him. If he doesn’t know what he’s doing, how will our opponents ?
He’s definitely contributed to us last season, but if he’s not going to be played, then putting his fee to an Olaru, or a third striker who has a bit of pace to him will probably strengthen us overall.
Look what happened last seasonuse the money to buy a third choice striker? Hopefully we do not do that.
My feelings as wellI think the Sakala one is a real dilemma, and agree with so many points made above on both sides of the argument.

Hes that bad at it that Gio chose to play a midfielder.I never want to be playing crucial games and cup finals without a recognised striker again, we’ve had that too often. Morelos and possibly Colak are reliable, Roofe certainly isn’t so I’d be keeping Sakala as an option.
Signing Sakala on a free was surely a no brainer? Harsh to say it hasn't worked out given he was a squad player last season, 12 goals and 7 assists is surely a decent return for a squad player?We have replaced him already with Matondo. If he doesn't want to play second best he will have to move on. Over the course of the season he will see game time as I don't like the idea of Tillman bring played wide. Aribo is gone and Hagi is Injured.
Matondo is the level we should have signed last year but we went for the cheap option. It's not paid off 100% but we will make a profit on him if he is sold this year.
His more positive performances have not been missed with certain clubs in Europe.
They take sponsorship and advertising opportunities with the club so are likely to be fed infoWhy does he get the info ?
Genuine question
