There was a Danish left back joined Rangers in the 80s by the name of Jan Bartram. He was highly rated, ended up spending most of his career in the Bundesliga and became the first choice Danish international left back at a time when Denmark had a good team. He joined Rangers and it was a disaster, he clearly hated the place, he left after 6 months, during that time he failed to dislodge Stuart Munro as our left back, gave an interview to a Danish paper where he described Souness as a 'beast' and a 'bastard' and complained about the physical nature of football in Scotland. He wasn't a bad player, just a bad fit.
Lammers feels like this decade's Bartram. It's better all round if he leaves, he's not a bad player, just a bad fit.
Wikipedia:
"[Bartram] got his national breakthrough with AGF in the top-flight Danish 1st Division championship as a left-sided attacking midfielder, and helped the club win the 1986 1st Division championship."
"[Bartram] signed for Scottish club Rangers, but his stay was a short one. He was assured by Rangers manager Graeme Souness that he would fit into his tactics, but found himself deployed as a strictly defensive full back."
Poor fit, or not used properly?

794 minutes in 365 days?. Welcome to the ward, son.
He hasn't been injured, as far as I can see - it's just the nature of the Argentine league, which is split up. Fbref, I believe, don't have data for every competition.

Galdames looks to be an extremely defensive LB (played CB once).
I have always wondered if Clement will transition us into a 3-4-3, which he liked at Brugge.
Galdames would fit into a back-three.

I liked the profile of Cordoba, but I always thought he looked extremely clumsy on the clips I saw.

McLean is too old.

I plan to run a Euro 2024 prediction league, as is tradition now. A simpler and shorter game.
Any interest?

Bluedell (2.11) and T-1000 (1.96) had the best points-per-game (ppg) scores, which is impressive considering they both missed 4 games.
FA1833 (1.65) and Stewarty (1.60) played very few games, but their ppg would get them into the top 10-12 if they played all games.
Seven Maximums from Bluedell is just ridiculous. The second best tally is a group of seven with 2!
Yorkie Bear, Ted McMinnime and 26th of foot were the best at hitting the Correct Result, with 41 each. Onevision, Lenny3k and Mack1950 were quite strong on this metric.
Bluedell (22) and Ted McMinnime (20) were best at getting the Correct Number of Rangers Goals. Malangsob gets into the top 10 in this metric.
Bluedell and Rousseau top the First Rangers Goalscorer charts, with 14. Graeme and SBG were also strong scorers in this metric.
There was a group of four (Bluedell, T-1000, Yorkie Bear and 26th of foot) topping the Correct Score charts, with 9. BEARGER was a strong performer, too.

Third post. First in two years. All three on the exact same subject.
Strange, but nothing inherently wrong with it.

Negri's must be the best goals per game ratio?
Transfermrkt has his Goals per 90 at 0.95, but I'm not sure about their data.
Dessers this season has 0.42 G/90, for comparison.

Would be that including penalties? Boyd, Miller, McCoist, Hateley etc all took pens where Morelos and Dessers don't.
It must be because Tavernier is hitting 18-19 in the last three years (excluding this year).

The average tally since 56/57 (European football era) is 26.

If he'd taken our penalties he would have.
When was the last striker to score 40 goals for us in a season?
12 minutes ago, BlackSocksRedTops said:McCoist?
McCoist scored 49 in 92/93.
We barely get over 30 since then (except for Negri's 37 in 97/98).

You are comparing a turd sandwich with a poop taco. Neither is the answer and we should cash in on both.
I'm just proving my point, which you rubbished.
One played as a #9, and got 19 xG worth of chances. One was played everywhere else, and got 4 xG worth of chances.
(Lammers in the Eredivise has an xG of 9 (scored 10), playing as a #9.)
All I'm saying is, he'll maybe do better as a #9.
I'm not saying he's the answer.
I have always said that all of our players are for sale if we get a decent offer.

Playing him as a 9 doesn’t change that when he had good chances for us he couldn’t take them.
He has an xG of 4 for his time with us (scored 2).
Dessers has an xG of 19 (scored 16).
Which one played as the #9?
Edit: Lammers in the Eredivise has an xG of 9 (scored 10).

Or find out what Utrecht have done to transform him into an effective, free scoring number 9.
Playing him as a #9 is a start...

We definitely need to sell him, he's had a great second half of the season and surely there will be teams willing to buy him. The risk is high if he comes back, he may not perform again and we will be stuck with him.I would still like to see him get an opportunity in his favoured #9 position.
If there's an offer I'd take it, though.

You often get players that are good passers, for example, playing in Europe at centre-back or as a deep-lying playmaker.
They come to the UK and our dinosaurs think, 'oh - he can pass a bit, let's put him in the hole', and then wonder why it doesn't work out.
