The Summer 2022 Rangers Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread

[CaptainCourageous]

Just shows you how ignorant some fans are.

If Southampton don’t think aribo would make them a better team then they’re mental

Adam Armstrong, Stuart Armstrong, Elynnoussi, Redmond get games for Southampton. They are dug meat.

This Southampton fan says Aribo has got a heavy first touch

Someone send him the clip of aribo killing the ball that fell from the moon first time at the piggery in Xmas 2019 and ask him how heavy that was

Mate Neil Armstrong could get a game for them.

 

[What's the story]

Defo describing Sakala.

 

[RangersEasyOK!]

I agree with regards to Kent, a £7m investment and one would expect a financial return on that investment.

Alfie and Aribo have more than returned on their respective investment. Leaving on a free is a missed opportunity for sure, but not a financial liability

It is absolutely a financial liability if they leave for free as they dont generate any money for us to replace them with.

 

[Battle Fever's On]

They will be playing in a 7s games with their pals from when they were younger, kamara done it last year. Team of pros against a team of lads from the area they grew up in but didn’t stick at it like them

It's an area we are keeping a keen eye on, some incredible talent emerging from there.

 

[ssblue]

Our budget come late August may look very different to what it is just now.

Hence why we may need to be patient with signings of which I think there will ultimately be 4 or 5.

No point in going for certain players now when better, more expensive ones may be within our reach later.

Would still expect 1 or maybe 2 signings this month.

What about his goal at Tynecastle? he brought a long ball down brilliantly and finished superbly.

 

[Main Stand]

We have a very good relationship with the Kinnetic academy, and will likely take more from them in the future in addition to the one we signed earlier in the year.

Aribo started out there too.

Unreal how wide he is about Aribo.

 

[BomberBrownFan]

Premier League fans really are cretins

Another great example mate

It must be some life being a sports "journalist" in Scotland. Listen to fan podcasts and read this thread and then start up a story that we're interested in targets suggested by FF and Heart and Hand.

The Israeli one is perfect example. Andy on HandH said there was 40 scouts from all over Europe watching an Israel game and he said he hopes we were watching Gloukh because he's impressed him. 2 days later, we have likes of Daily Record etc saying we're after him.

That's what happens when you replace experienced journalists with first year students learning the job because its cheaper to hire them.

 

[cottonbudd]

He's literally describing Sakala and not Aribo

 

[bkerr72]

Edit.. double post.

 

[Andrew webb]

He has shares and is a non executive director so close enough

Good point and Stuart Gibson same position

 

[Now and forever]

He has shares and is a non executive director so close enough

Nowhere near owning and running us.

 

[bkerr72]

What about his goal at Tynecastle? he brought a long ball down brilliantly and finished superbly.

Still don't know how that goal wasn't at least on the list for club goal of the season award such an underrated goal.

 

[Andrew webb]

Nowhere near owning and running us.

I know but would have money to buy out others on board if they sell ?

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Aribo literally has one of the best touches going. It’s ridiculous. Touch and the way he shields the ball.

Still remember the moment he scored in Seville. Cutting onions…

 

[ICA_86]

He deserves so much better than Southampton.

 

[DeeGer10]

Nowhere near owning and running us.

He could if he wanted to.

 

[Now and forever]

I know but would have money to buy out others on board if they sell ?

That may be so but he doesn't own or run us which was the point.

And i wouldn't want private equity firms owning and running us.

 

[Now and forever]

He could if he wanted to.

Which isn't the point.

Our Joe wears sticky boots FFS.

One of the best in the box I've ever watched at Rangers, in terms of close control. So wide of the mark that description made on that earlier.

 

[DeeGer10]

Which isn't the point.

Well it is because its a very distinct possibility, something you're saying you don't want.

 

[longtallsally]

I wouldn't be too disappointed if we lost Aribo. The guy is a wonderful talent and a joy to watch but for the system Gio plays a Ryan Kent type for the right hand side could make us more fluid. Appreciate there would be negatives as well such as ball retention but could see it working.

 

[JMCK]

If Aribo signed for Southampton, it would be interesting to see what this man had to say about him in a year's time, compared what kind of player he thinks he is at the moment.

 

[Now and forever]

Well it is because its a very distinct possibility, something you're saying you don't want.

No m8 you said it was too late as if it had already happened.

 

[jierobinson92]

Where’s everyone watching this Southampton fan talking about Joe?

 

[SuperAlly1990]

Where’s everyone watching this Southampton fan talking about Joe?

It's a tweet from him.

 

[HamiltonBear]

I assume the club is realistic about knowing our place / level based on the finances we have. We can't compete with these teams in terms of adding real quality. We are a Europa League team who may get lucky and fall into the CL with a good draw and a wee bit of luck.

I'm sure one or two of our opponents in recent seasons have said we are a Champions league level team. One was definitely the Benfica coach.

 

[insanicdrunk]

Where’s everyone watching this Southampton fan talking about Joe?

It was posted above, hes fuked and looks like he has deleted the tweet.

 

[HamiltonBear]

Wonder if cash plus a player? Remember the Stuart Armstrong rumours?

Wages are an obstacle I think.

 

[Robjax22]

Dallinga officially joins toulouse.

Yeah I’m relaxed about this window but letting Aribo, Kent and Morelos get down to their last year is appalling business.

I’m still astonished that we have people on here and Twitter in reasonably privileged positions trying to claim that losing them for free wouldn’t be that bad.

That’s fair enough mate , but you can’t make them sign ..

 

[Robjax22]

If they don’t sign then we sell them

For how much and to who ?

 

[HamiltonBear]

Whoever offers him & his agent the most money IMO. The boys got 1 possibly 2 big deals left and it’ll set him up for life!

Feels like I am just disagreeing with everyone tonight. Not sure he is driven by money. He could have probably got as much, or more, in England when he chose us.

Unfortunately I think he will go, as I believe he has previously been reported as not wanting a new contract. Palace would be a good fit for him.

Was there not one against Dundee Utd at Ibrox before the winter break that was incredible?

Think Gio mentioned it after the game as Joe got man of the match.

 

[Farkimedes]

Maybe thinking of the one v Hearts at Tynecastle?

Goldson played the long ball, Aribo kills it with a first touch and then slots it past Gordon.

 

[bornabluenose]

Aribo has a first touch like a £5000 a night hooker.

The Southampton fan should put down the crack pipe.

 

[Main Stand]

St Johnstone perhaps.

Killed it on the left edge of the box, quickly weaves passes someone then slipped a pass to Sakala.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

If they don’t sign then we sell them

In order to sell them - and in order for someone else to sign them - then the player needs to agree mate. If any of those players chooses to run down their contract, and that’s what Aribo, for example, did at Charlton, then there is nothing we can do about it.

Aribo could get Amber Heard under control with his first touch fs.

 

[VMS]

Imo there will be players going out the door in the coming weeks hence no signings

 

[Aribo17]

Majority of Southampton fans online seem very excited at prospect of signing Aribo.

 

[DeeGer10]

No m8 you said it was too late as if it had already happened.

He has an influence in the board room so yes close enough and could be greater if he decides to. (Which he might who know)

In any board room situation they all have an influence there's not one guy making the decisions.

He's as close as anyone can be with the current situation.

 

[Teddy bear]

Aribo has killed the ball Stone dead from a high height on several occasions.
The first time was our first victory at the piggery under Gerrard.

 

[Robjax22]

I’m sakala’s biggest critic probably. I just don’t think he’s a footballer!
But looking at it, last season he played in 50 games, starting only 18 and ended it with 12 goals and 7 assists. Fair play to him tbh.

Could be a player with a wee bit more coaching imho . His stats last season are good and if he gets settled he,ll definitely improve, he’s lightning quick too . I’d give him a chance mate .
