We're you alright with 5 million quid being spent on Dessers?

I agree with you and Graeme of that but part of me thinks we have went out and bought 3 strikers to replace 3 strikers - Morelos - Colak - Roofe a year earlier purely as his fitness can’t be relied on.

Sydney van Hooijdonk is in the interest of Feyenoord, reports 1908.nl. The striker must succeed Danilo when the Brazilian actually leaves De Kuip. The technical staff is convinced that Pierre van Hooijdonk's son can be of added value to the stadium club.

Feyenoord seems to be taking Danilo's departure seriously into account. The Rotterdammers were previously associated with the Japanese Ayase Ueda and now Van Hooijdonk's name is emphatically used in the Maas building. The stadium club has not yet reported concretely to Bologna FC at this stage.

When Rangers FC approaches Feyenoord's asking price and a final departure beckons, things can go quickly. Van Hooijdonk has recently been told that he may leave Bologna FC. Trainer Thiago Motta has indicated that the 23-year-old striker is not included in the plans and can look forward to a new employer

Thank you der Berliner.  No offence but I hate the transfer window.  It always starts with hope and ends in disappointment.

For once in recent years, this window looks to be a good one 😉

Agree so far!  Two or three areas still need strengthening but that will happen only if we sell a few bodies.

Roll on August to we get some competitive football

"Rangers FC is approaching an agreement with a new offer to release Danilo from Feyenoord. That reports the Algemeen Dagblad on Sunday evening.

The Scottish record champion has made an ultimate offer to Feyenoord worth more than six million euros.”

Danilo seems to be quite highly thought of.  I don't watch Dutch football but he must be decent at that price.

 

Hopefully we can still afford to improve the defence a bit.

Geniune question, would Danilo score or make anymore goals than Sakala would if he was first choice? If Sakala had been in the first team under Beale since the start of last season he'd be knocking on for 30 g/a in the league if I've got it right.

 

My maths might be wrong but...

 

His p90 in the league since Beale for g/a is 1.1.

 

He played 18 games totalling 1,111 minutes.

 

He was available for 13 games prior to Beale excluding injury so I multiplied the 1,111 minutes by 0.72 13/18 which would be 799minutes/8.8 games.

 

Then 8.8 x 1.1 (his p90 for Beale) and it's 9.7.

 

Add that to the 16 he got under Beale and you're looking at a hypothetical 26 g/a in 1,910 minutes I.e 21 full 90's. That's just in the league.

 

People sleep on Fashion man, he was the difference yesterday but people are talking about Dowell and Ridvan who to be fair were good.

 

I might be howling but I fully believe if you start with Sakala and a another striker this season, in the league at least, he'll get 20 goals no problem.

 

Maths might be iffy, apologies if it is.
