Derek Ferguson has called for an Ibrox clear out and questioned the wisdom of spending £5m on Malik Tillman.
The Bayern Munich starlet has been on loan at Ibrox this season, attracted all of the usual hype then gone into hiding in three appearances against Celtic.
Since Micky Beale took charge in November Ianis Hagi has been handed a contract extension with Todd Cantwell and Nicolas Raskin signed to bring life to the turgid midfielders currently at the club.
Spending £5m on the Bayern kid this summer might bring in Dembele Dollars further down the line but at a real push it is difficult to see Beale being handed a £10m war-chest when he has stars like Kemar Roofe, John Lunstram, John Souttar, Rabbi Matondo and Ridvan Yilmaz clogging up the payroll.
Ibrox fans look like being underwhelmed by the summer revamp but Ferguson is demanding an overhaul of a squad rammed with serial losers.
Watching Barry’s brother on Open Goal the Record reports Deek saying:
Over the last number of years you put up with so much with Morelos because he gives you it. But at this stage? I’m fed up of the guy. He needs to go. A number need to leave. There’s a realisation at Rangers that the board need to get a grip. If they want to compete with Celtic, they have to find a way.
Kent is one I’d keep if he wants to be there. Barisic? Not for me. He’s shown in the past he can’t handle it mentally. Goldson? Aye. Tav? He’s different class going forward but he struggles defensively. They turn and jog back. Tillman? Wouldn’t pay £5m for him. He’s a young boy but in that game did he have the legs and desire?
Tillman may of course decide that one season is more than enough at Ibrox and get out before it damages his career any further.
The Chuckle brothers need to communicate better with each other,just the other day Barry was giving it buy Tillman for £5 million and swiftly sell him on for £15 million.
Now we have Barry’s big brother screaming at Beale don’t buy him.
As if Bayern will say to sevco here take one of our players for £5 million and feel to sell immediately for £15 million as Bayern couldn’t do this themselves.
Love it , the bus driver park told all of them at their AGM there is NO money , do all these experts not understand the word NO.
I’ll bet that was Derek Ferguson’s sister in law who advised him to say that about Tillman ! After all she is the financial muscle in their family after brother Baz signed over his wealth to her to avoid the old tax mob ! You can’t beat good ,financial advice these days …Can you !
Pay £5 million, where would it come from, no assets to sell, no money in the bank, no rich investors, the recent share issue disclosed to companies house should tell you there is no money, directors loans being paid back at value of 25p per share, bur shares are only worth 1p.
Dave King is furious at the diluted price of his shares, he can’t sell due to losing money on them.
These type of stories are only feel good news to appease the fans, however some fans are recently waking up to the fabricated stories going round.
Looks like the losers all have their knickers in a twist again!
Amazing the number of people who get a living out of sevco commentating!
