Shankland would be a slight improvement but not who we should be looking at.

I doubt any club would be mad enough to spend anywhere near £4m on Dessers anyway. Probably just a daft rumour.

If we can get £4.2m for Dessers, we should definitely sell him and bring in a replacement.

We keep starting matches with Lawrence and Wright. Attack is the best form of defence, so the problems with the press start up front, in my opinion. But Tav has definitely lost a yard of pace.

Several players played a part in the OG. Tav didn't get over to their winger fast enough and Souttar and Propper weren't in line with each other when the cross came in, leading to the OG. He was our best defender though. Likes a tackle, reads the game well and is a good passer.

Went for Cerny because without his terrific goal, we might've been looking at three straight draws. Our inability to finish teams off is infuriating.

It's okay to admit I was right. 🤪

I read somewhere that he was training with the first team just prior to the friendly in Berlin.

He has an occasional decent shot on goal. Other than that, I'm not sure what else he does.

I just can't be arsed with Lawrence or Dowell, so took desperate measures.

Really need a win tomorrow, after two draws.

Lowry wasn't good enough for Hearts, so he's definitely not good enough for Rangers. The acceptance of mediocrity amongst some of our support must make Celtc winning everything easier for them, I suppose.

Igamane was in Poland with the first team squad yesterday.

I'm going to get accused of Haaland bashing now, aren't I. I think I'll blame Roy Keane.

Lawrence and Dessers are quite similar in that they do some stuff okay but overall, I just don't think they're what's required in their respective positions, particularly the way Clement sets the team up.

It's widely thought that Haaland isn't a very good all-round footballer. He scores goals, that's it. He's also City's sole striker.

Man City get away with Haaland playing similarly because they have outstanding players around him. We don't have that. Lawrence, Wright and McCausland were the players supporting him last night and none of them are good enough (although I have hope for McCausland).

Our new first choice striker, obviously. 😃

I've went for Jefte. In his short time on the park, he caused Kiev more problems than anyone else. I hope Clement is now considering him as a wide forward, rather than a left back.

Strikers aren't likely to cost many goals and full-backs aren't likely to score many, so that's a strange method of comparison. Ridvan is also a few years younger than Dessers, so there's time for him to improve.

We've watched him for a full season. Is that not a reasonable timescale to judge a player's worth or ability? He's not a youngster.

I just don't want him as a No.1 striker. He'd be okay as a back up.
