Summer Transfer Thread

[Stevethebluenose90]

I don’t think I can handle this for another 3 and a half months

 

[Applepine]

I do love these threads and don't quite understand people getting annoyed at it as they don't believe the names mentioned.

Defoe though? Come on???? Surely not?

Defoes a defo

 

[RFC#1Scotty]

I’m sure at the very least he’s a better option than Hodson.

Look at Tierney for Celtic, I feel there's so many great young talent we can take advantage of down south who are not getting into the first team that we can exploit. I think he'd do well and you're spot on about that, he's a definite upgrade to Hodson.

 

[Camby_bear72]

Actually burst out laughing seeing cunts turning their nose up at Defoe, what planet do some ppl live on? Would score a barrowload without a doubt! And btw there is no Bournemouth player earning 100 grand a week.

 

[BlueStu72]

True or false isnt relevant, if you're turning your nose up at the prospect of Jermaine Defoe, you need your head looked at.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Brighton supporters talking about Goldson as a replacement for Dunk next season.

Must be of decent calibre as Dunk is a cracking CB.

 

[YoungGer97]

Confirmed by the club.

Welcome back Greegsy.

Another planet, it's no different to some who turned their nose up at Fernando Torres, the same Torres who this season was still scoring goals in a top league. Honestly, if we get players of that ilk, you can guarantee there would be 20+ goals in there. Morelos will have quality around him finally. I would love to see these sort of players come in.

 

[The Ultimate Warrior]

%^*& it...

I wouldn't want Defoe he likely would be on wages kicking the arse of 50k a week ...thats got admin all over it - some things are more important.

As an aside the deal to take him to Bournemouth was a 20 million package they aren't fucking that off after a year.

 

[Edmond Dantes]

Kris boyd is the leagues top scorer

 

[snoopyboymason]

Defoe is 35 years old ffs we may aswell have kept kenny miller if thats the age we want upfront

Defoe is a far superior striker always has been

 

[What's the story]

Yet still playing brilliant this season, have you watched him play this season ? i suggest you haven't aand are just jumping on the bandwagon because of his age.

He was brilliant at left back both legs v Middlesborough againt a very fast and powerful winger in Traore.

I have watched plenty of him. He was good against boro. He' 33 however. He's nowhere close to the same force he was going forward. I think we can get young full back who we can sell on who offers more. Hutton is a lazy lazy transfer target.

McGregor is different. 36 is fine for a keeper and a good goalie is hard to come by.

 

[WATP3006]

When’s the next signing?

 

[Jed jed1]

Right Rangers, Defoe next

Hope so mate love to see him up here

 

[Jed jed1]

Did promise a signing today

Take a bow son

 

[WATP3006]

Right Rangers, Defoe next

We know this one is a joke!

 

[What's the story]

Right Rangers, Defoe next

Wit! Surely Not!

 

[humie]

Did promise a signing today

good info as always. I put up a thread a week or so ago about football insider saying that McGregor and Arfield were signing and they were right

 

[Number11]

 

[Union Jack 1872]

Right Rangers, Defoe next

Stop it people will be getting the sack for constantly refreshing and the Divorce rate will go through the roof with women thinking their man is having an affair when all he’s doing is checking the transfer thread

 

[JD1872]

Defoe is not that much younger than Gerrard, I am therefore going to have to insist Gerrard brings his boots with him

 

[WearsideGallantFew]

Right Rangers, Defoe next

don't even pretend there's a chance of Defoe joining the famous.

 

[RFC1976]

Right Rangers, Defoe next

Going to need to feck this out mate I’ve got work to do and need to sleep at nights can’t be on here refreshing this forum all the time I lost a good few days sleep with the Gerrard express thread

 

[Bluetothecore]

What planet do some folk live on man? Jermaine Defoe would bang goals in up here when he’s 75 ffs!
He’d run amok up here, 35 or not. The issue might just be his absolutely astronomical wage demands.
However, if it was to somehow happen, let’s not kid ourselves on that it’s somehow a poor signing.

This guy is a predator in and around the box as you say even at 35 would bang in the goals.

Interesting site here;

Would seem to be at odds with your assessment.

For what it's worth I'd love to see him in a Gers' top but have my doubts.

WATP

 

[RDFM]

You're going to be 100% disappointed then.

Hahahahahah Hahahahahahah

Try double it and then some

 

[Plissken]

I’m not pretending in any way!!!

Will it happen? We are certainly trying!

A loan deal?

 

[AmsterdamBear]

I’m not pretending in any way!!!

Oh you fucker.

 

[RDFM]

Hope he knocks it back and we go for someone younger.

 

[Tagsbear]

Hope he knocks it back and we go for someone younger.

What the fucks the problem with having a couple of experienced players? Even at 35 Defoe is fast and sharp and would bag us at least 25 goals next season.

All that matters is winning the title, and if you’re arguing Defoe wouldn’t be a major asset you’re off your rocker.

 

[StaunchGer54]

your at it

 

[Buccaneers Bear]

I don't understand this need for every signing to be young and having sell on potential. We need a mixture of both, the younger signings will come. I'm not saying Defoe will happen but to turn our noses up at a proven goal scorer just because he isn't in his early 20's in insane. We couldn't afford a player that good at that age in this current market.

 

[RangersEasyOK]

Hope he knocks it back and we go for someone younger.

You don’t care about the ability just as long as he’s young ?

 

[RangersEasyOK]

I actually can’t believe there’s people who don’t want Jermaine Defoe, mentalists

 

[Recoba]

I have watched plenty of him. He was good against boro. He' 33 however. He's nowhere close to the same force he was going forward. I think we can get young full back who we can sell on who offers more. Hutton is a lazy lazy transfer target.

McGregor is different. 36 is fine for a keeper and a good goalie is hard to come by.

Hutton can defend better than he used to, we have no cover for left or right back and he can cover both positions.

Doesnt sound lazy to me m8

 

[Alfie_WATP]

There is an interest in Defoe and it's believed to be a 1 year loan deal.

 

[Superrangers]

I thought he went to Dubai on sunday night?

 

[RDFM]

You don’t care about the ability just as long as he’s young ?

Yes you’re right I hope we sign a really shit young striker.

What the fucks the problem with having a couple of experienced players? Even at 35 Defoe is fast and sharp and would bag us at least 25 goals next season.

All that matters is winning the title, and if you’re arguing Defoe wouldn’t be a major asset you’re off your rocker.

And Kranjcar will stroll it and Barton will run the show and Alves will dominate and blah blah blah.

 

[WalterSandy]

Defoe would score for fun up here...if fit the amount of chances we create he would score 25+ easy if he's willing to take a massive wage cut to right I'd sign him in a heart beat !

 

[What's the story]

Hutton can defend better than he used to, we have no cover for left or right back and he can cover both positions.

Fair enough but for me I think there has to be better and more innovative options. Mark Allan/stevie g must have more ideas than 33 year old ec players.

 

[StaunchGer54]

I’m not! FF promise

The rumour is true

Sueeee perb!

 

[YoungGer97]

Yes you’re right I hope we sign a really shit young striker.

Your dp is literally Kris Boyd

Indeed it literally is, looks good doesn’t it?

 

[Recoba]

I agree we cant be signing lots of 30 plus players, i would like to pick out gems from europe, young hungry players we can develop and sell on, perhaps we will get a mix of both.

 

[Buccaneers Bear]

And Kranjcar will stroll it and Barton will run the show and Alves will dominate and blah blah blah.

How can people keep going with this same argument? Not every player is like them. Three players didn't play anywhere as good as they should have so let's just write every player off that's an older big name because that means every single one of them is rotten....

We should absolutely right off older players yes.

 

[11huistra11]

Got a feeling the folk who’d turn their noses up at Defoe for being old would be the same who’d complain about is going for a McBurnie or a Mariott for being too expensive & inexperienced.

Just no pleasing some
