Besides the point, but he seems to be stealing a wage by (sometimes) confirming speculation. Anyway, £20m for Bassey seems unreal for Rangers. He’s been an absolute liability every time he’s come up against Jordan White. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 How dare someone speak ill of Mr Romano. He speaks of transfers that the players don't even know of. The greatest. Wash your dirty mouth out and apologise to the man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at ten Haags signings, looks like it was about a 75% success rate. None as expensive as Bassey though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thistle_do_nicely Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Bassey and Aribo away; is Morelos wanting out or happy to stay another year? Will look very different without those three tbf. I guess kent and morelos are more likely to go next season, purely on the basis that losing 4 first team players in one season is a bit too much upheaval and you'll be reluctant to entertain "fair" value offers. A big enough premium and they'll be away i suppose... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Kent and Alfie are the 2 that I'm desperate to keep, apparently Morelos has bought a new hoose in Glasgow so you never know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see if anything comes of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the fee is £4m as reported Liverpool are getting 8 x what they paid for a guy that never played for them. That’s a Championship Manager 01/02 type of transfer . Amazing business by Liverpool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMCs Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Essentially a done deal then. £4m seems a bit much for me. Now a young athletic first-choice left back please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually the joint-second-highest transfer fee that we've paid for a CB (wonder if anyone can remember the highest?). Liverpool bought him with six months left on his deal and Preston had zero leverage. We're now buying him and Liverpool have all the leverage because the whole world has just seen that we've a few quid to spend now.

G51 Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 It was indeed Big Bert. Scorer of thunderb*****ds, conceder of comedy goals. £4.5m Amoruso is second incidentally with £4m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously; they are wetting themselves at buying a guy for 800k never playing him,putting him out on loan therfor paying next to nothing for his keep then selling him for £4m. By all accounts he had a meh season out on loan to top it off. I wasn't having a dig at The Rangers, just an observation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think we've overpaid here especially if it's £4m as a full fee though. Sky Sports are reporting it as £3m + £1m in add-ons but The Times broke the story first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
