When we harvest the magic money tree, we can buy better players than Shankland. The money wasted on Danilo and Dessers is criminal.

I've not seen any stats possession so I wont comment on them. I'll just comment on the eye test from what I saw from him last season. I have also seen him play as a #10 which is remarkable for a guy that stats say cant retain possession. In the extreme case that all he offers is lower wages and low fee then yes he is still a better option than Dessers. RE: stats. I'm not entirely sure Shankland is that motivated to play for Hearts this season. An issue I'm sure we all all more than familiar with, from our own team last few seasons.

Sakala was also a win. A guy we got for free, paid a small sign on, paid around half of what we were paying Lundstram and then sold for 4million after 2 years. We need to do more of the small wins like Sakala, the big wins will take care of themselves.

Its not about the goals.

Yes, and this includes under the panacea Gerrard. Its been all wrong for years.

If we could shift Dessers for 3-4 million in January and sign Shankand(who I don't think is particularly great tbh) for 500k and pay him 15k per week that's an instant upgrade for me. That's how bad he is. We also need to stop signing centre backs that are soft as sh**e like Propper. I also lost count, the number of times Cerny could have went in to tackle his man and he just didn't bother and backed off, backed off a few 50/50's too. That's pointless.

Koppen said it was down to money we decided against bringing him back. We are downsizing.

I think that the formation and style of play the manager wants to go with needs a #9 who can hold up the ball and pass to a team mate.

He is definitely better than Dessers, and has been more mobile from the treatment room for the past year, never mind when he is match fit.

Even if Danilo comes back fitter than ever(he wont) I still don't think he is very good.

I've been critical of Butland lately, but I'm not sure what he is supposed to do at that goal. Soutter has to win the duel, he doesn't and the striker gets the luck with a deflection - not sure how the keeper stops that one.

It puzzles me how several successful business individuals, in various workstreams and areas, across various geographical locations and over many years, can be so disengaged in managing a Glasgow football club.

Its bizarre, he was a breath of fresh air when he first came in. He also seems to struggle to play 90 minutes, which for a guy that cost 4.5 million is a concern.

I agree, we should beat Kilmarnock. We have not been playing well for weeks, and it caught up with us yesterday. No Rangers supporter was surprised by yesterdays result which probably tells you what we think of the players we have.

Supporters need to get used to this. The board wrote off the season before it started. The wage bill reduction and no finance to buy new players should tell you everything.

Same issue as with Gio i think - these guys are trying to play European football in the SPL. It doesn’t work.

Hard to argue with that

Buy better players than Kilmarnock?

The thought had crossed my mind.

Clement talking about new players and learning 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

I like Clement but he really is doing his best to change that. Today was a disgrace.

Well there is the totally expected winner. For Killie. lol.

This season is just a total write off sadly. Another one done by mid October.
