They won’t spend. Look it’s not a money pit..you can speculate to accumulate etc but unless we sell two for decent money we won’t be spending big.Because of the guys leaving and potential lack of investment, it utterly terrifies me. I don't trust our board to spend.
Yes, we then go into the playoff round.We go into the 3rd qualifying rounds if we win that game do we need to play another round or do we go straight in.
Deja vu from this summer and we got papped out by MalmoWe need to qualify for the cl before any spending will be done
If that’s the case again, it’s frankly ridiculous. A pile of extra unbudgeted money from the EL run, plus Patterson sale and Gerrard compensation. We need to rebuild and improve this team.We need to qualify for the cl before any spending will be done
Was speaking to my mate about this yesterday and those would be my first three to try to cash in all. All three are too inconsistent.I'll be shocked if most of those players don't see this as a natural stopping point.
They've done everything and more they could in a Rangers shirt.
Tbh with Kent, Aribo and Kamara I feel its time to move on. All 3 are great on their day but we've started to see diminishing returns on them in the league.
Try and get our monies worth and hopefully properly reinvest it in the team.
We're looking at turning a massive profit this season and then there's the likely hood of a big sale or two come the summer to add to the pot GVB will get backedIf that’s the case again, it’s frankly ridiculous.

And he should be. Regardless of sales.We're looking at turning a massive profit this season and then there's the likely hood of a big sale or two come the summer to add to the pot GVB will get backed
Hopefully not.We need to qualify for the cl before any spending will be done
Is that a Greek player? :shh:Mabey try a wee bit of paragraphs first?
That is one big positive , we should be using them instead of bringing in squad fillers.We've got a tremendous group of young players coming through, we need to look at them before spending millions on players who we don't know. Would Lowry have been a worse option than some of the guys who played tonight?
We have 2 qualifying rounds unfortunately.We go into the 3rd qualifying rounds if we win that game do we need to play another round or do we go straight in.
Maybe learn to spell before correcting others.Mabey try a wee bit of paragraphs first?
If we lose on Saturday he may not get anything,he may be gone.GVB needs to be given a chance to build his own team now, he has shown in Europe that he is very good tactically and I’ve been impressed with how he has gelled the team together in recent weeks after some poor results.
I expect a number of players like Aribo, Kent and Goldson will see this as the time to move on. We need to move players on quickly and strengthen ahead of the qualifiers
Digging the boy out but spelling maybe wrong hahaMabey try a wee bit of paragraphs first?
Gio has got the foundations of a great team with Tavernier, Bassey, Lundstram, Jack, Aribo, Morelos, etc.
Tactically he’s been outstanding in Europe and needs to be backed in the summer. Next season could be even better with his own players upgrading in some of our weak areas.
Jack hasn't been able to be regularly fit for years now.
He can't be considered the foundation of anything.
We need to spend to have any chance of qualifying. We tried that approach this season and failed to qualify.We need to qualify for the cl before any spending will be done
You're bang on mate,the board have to back him,player sales etc,to the tune of 20 million,3 to 4 players that are proven.Now before anyone thinks this is a knee jerk thread after tonight, it’s far from that. Since his arrival, Gio has had a fairly mixed bag I think it’s fair to say, however by getting us as far as he did and to take us so close shows he has something about him. He’s tactically switched on, flexible and more impressively for me, took a team of someone else’s players to another level and into a European Final. The summer is an absolute certainty to be one of complete overhaul so the baton is now passed to the board. We will sell, most likely Kamara, Aribo, possible Morelos and Kent as well as losing the likes of Goldson, McGregor and Davis from the wage will. With Robertson telling SSN the other day that the euro run has earned us slightly more than the CL group stages and add in a minimum of £20m from sales, they quite simply have to back Gio. He’s not been perfect domestically, but after the euro run he’s absolutely earned the right to be backed and backed properly at that. Failure to do so will simply see us fall back into the managerial merry to round
Simple mate,recruitment is key,and we will have to pony up,aribo is a 20 mill player if there's a buyer,alfi is a yoyo,20 mill one season 10 the next,the boy lowery has me exited.We will need to back the manger not only for the champions league.but also towing the league back
8 mill aribo???no mate.We made more than a CL group stage this year. We sold Patterson for £12m upfront. We’ve spent fuckall.
Aribo will go for £8m and potentially a few others.
If we don’t seriously invest Robertson needs chased as I’ve no idea what the %^*& he is doing
Like I,and most bears think.The board need to pony up in the summer. It's as simple as that.

Not went through thread,hope he isn't,we lost to a penalty,I am raw,but proud.we have a final on sat.geo needs backed,big time,give him at least 20 million.Gio has been here 6 months and has got us to 2 finals, the points we dropped were mostly early in his reign, he's not even been able to put his stamp on the team properly yet.
he's also did this with injury issues in attack. I think he's getting a hard time on here
Mate I don’t disagree with any of this, I think it’s absolutely imperative he gets a really decent budget.Gio has been here 6 months and has got us to 2 finals, the points we dropped were mostly early in his reign, he's not even been able to put his stamp on the team properly yet.

I think he needs that chance to bring 4/5 of his players in. his feyenoord team were far more attacking than what he's shown here, I felt he adapted to the players here, I think we will see a few more technical players come in.Mate I don’t disagree with any of this, I think it’s absolutely imperative he gets a really decent budget.
Like any job,I got job as tool hire manager,still dealing with historic shit fae 2 years ago.every day at a time.I think he needs that chance to bring 4/5 of his players in. his feyenoord team were far more attacking than what he's shown here, I felt he adapted to the players here, I think we will see a few more technical players come in.
He has a release clause8 mill aribo???no mate.
Would that not get renegotiated with a new deal?He has a release clause
The calibre of player who seen rangers in the uefa cup final,who smashed dortmund and lepzig mate.i still wonder what calibre of player folk think we can afford to sign will want to play in scotland
Yeah, red face this morning.Digging the boy out but spelling maybe wrong haha
Perhaps but can you honestly see him signing one?Would that not get renegotiated with a new deal?
You make a good point, we had a run of these clever, low cost signings but that seems to have dried up.For those saying we don't need anymore experiments. Every player we sign is an experiment, it's the market we're shopping in.
Look at the core of our team. Our captain was an unfancied player with his career dwindling away in the English lower leagues, Goldson had just returned to the game after heart surgery, Aribo from the English lower leagues, Morelos plucked from obscurity in Finland, Kamara 50k from another Scottish side.
However, this summer needs to see us actually be forward thinking. No more vanity loans like Ramsey. Some evidence of joined up thinking regarding contracts and player transfers and as much as it might lead to some players leaving before we're ready to see the back of them I think we need an almost blanket policy that any player not committing to a new deal with 12 months left will be sold.
Really? We have been great at moments this season! When you consider we looked stale at the start of the season and then lost our manager I think this has been a hugely successful season! And last night I will remember for the rest of my life - we held our own against a team that has beat Barca!So we just keep them? We have not been good this season irrelevant of the Europa League final. We have got to rebuild the team with good players and to do that we need to free up wages etc
