I was just going to ask that. I've just seen an article suggesting 7–10 days. That's nothing at all or a Rossitter situation!

You specifically brought up assists. I just took it to its logical conclusion. There was actually a fuller discusson above about his all-round stats and qualities. The sarcasm is unnecessary. I think it's absolute madness to punt a player because he's not the finished article at 22-years-old. Not only does he still have plenty of scope to improve, it is also terrible management. We should be punting the aging players and keeping those with youth and potential. (Saying that, if someone came in to give us a profit on him, I'd take it. I'd take that with every player.)

How many assists do you think a full-back should be providing? Are you thinking he should be putting up Tavernier numbers? Take Trent Alexander-Arnold, who I think we can agree is the most creative FB in the PL; He has 7 assists from 34 games, which is around 0.20 per 90. If we extrapolate that to the 13 games Ridvan has played, you would be looking at around 2–3 assists. I would also argue Ridvan assist output is better because his xA is around 3.5. If our forwards were any good he'd be sitting at 3–4 assists. He is creating the chances. TAA also has two goals. Moreover, Ridvan is only 22. Do you not think players can improve? I think it's worth keeping him for another year or two, and if the injury record continues, then sell. Punting him – and any player – because he's not exactly what you want at this exact moment is madness. The sensible thing to do is replace the aging Barisic and keep Ridvan.

We were after that Brazilian left-back. Were we not intending to complete that deal in the summer?

Dessers was scoring for Nigeria.

Full-time. 4-1. Rangers win the cup.

4-1. Easy cut-back for a tap-in. My favourite type of goal.

3-1. A lovely team goal: a one-two before a toe-poke through the 'keeper's legs.

This linesman's a Tim.

We've taken the lead with our own absolute beauty! 2-1.

Bugger... They've just scored a worldie. 'Keeper's got no chance. 1-1.

Rangers 1 - 0 Partick Whit's the goalie daein, Tom? Fantastic ball, though.

Georges Heylens.

If you hover over the poster's name or avatar an ignore button appears. You're right, though: I'm sure there was a easier method.

It's a poll on a football forum, not a general election.

I thought I had made it public. It is now.

Yes, I agree. It's also just trash most of the time.

Ibrox is getting work done. I believe all our pre-season matches will therefore be away - I could be mistaken, though.

I'm quite pleased that this forces us to let his contract run out - I would presume the renewal would be similar to what he's currently on, which would be a mistake to continue with.

Nope. 8-year deal. Tellin' ye.

The stats suggest Lundstram is better as the deeper of the two 6s, and let another be the ball carrier, like Diomande or Raskin.

He's also not great running with the ball, but is a good passer (outwith crossing, but he doesn't cross the ball much so it's irrelevant):

Ibrox Noise is a load of rubbish. It's an interesting stat, though. It could be a flaw of his, or it could be just where he's positioned, in any case we should be covering for it. Nevertheless, it is just one stat - the rest of his defensive stats are pretty good:
