Popular Post Ski 15 Posted Wednesday at 17:09 Popular Post Share Posted Wednesday at 17:09 Just listened to Sunday's podcast and feel the need to make a point. Since summer of 2023 Kyogo has scored 31 goals and has just been sold for £8.5 million Danilo has scored 12 goals at a cost of £6.5 million Dessers has scored 40 goals at a cost of £4.15 million and a lot of fans want him chased out of Ibrox at a loss. I am not a blind Dessers fan, but imagine where we would have been last 2 seasons without him? He is much more reliable than poor Danilo. In 6 seasons Morelos, who I loved, scored 18, 30, 29, 17, 18 and 12 goals. So Buff, at his peak only, has been better than Dessers but averaged under 21 goals a season. there is a very good chance that Dessers will pass that this season We cannot blame him for the price paid, he had no say in that and all footballers want to earn as much as they can. Yes, he misses a lot of chances. In the last 3 games he has only scored 5 when he should have had 6. The last person to miss this many chances was Ally McCoist, and he grew on us. I was never part of the Ally, Ally, gtf. I believe we should support our players. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone on here knows the Gersnet podcast is not a reliable source of information and everyone on it only appears because Frankie pays them handsomely. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutton_blows_goats 5,775 Posted Wednesday at 17:26 Share Posted Wednesday at 17:26 I hate this comparison to Kygo tbh. Pains me to say it, but compare goals all you like, but you need to compare trophy count. If Dessers was winning us trophies the way Ally did, it certainly helps fan perception. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we expect to see you on Sunday then to pick up your fat paycheck? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CammyF 8,862 Posted Wednesday at 17:57 Popular Post Share Posted Wednesday at 17:57 We wanted a 20 goal a season striker, and we got one. Due to our continued lack of trophies, Dessers became the focal point for us "failing", but as you say, we'd be worse off without him. Kyogo doesn't win trophies on his own, same as Dessers (and Tav) don't lose trophies on their own. It's came to a point that no matter what Dessers does, he'll never be accepted by all fans. Being booed onto the pitch, being booed off the pitch and being booed during games certainly isn't going to help. Kris Boyd was never fully accepted and he played (mostly) in a successful Rangers team, same can be said for others (Kenny Miller). Like you, I think Dessers offers more than Danilo and is currently our top scorer and some fans want to sell him for peanuts. Utter madness. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, its about winning trophies. Simples. I look at some of the discontent over in the east end and to me the main reason it doesn't bubble over is because of their success. It wont be until we properly challenge for the title that the cracks will be more obvious. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is tantamount to saying it isn't all Dessers' fault. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 11,140 Posted Wednesday at 18:24 Share Posted Wednesday at 18:24 Morelos got his fair share of criticism for missing sitters, but the difference is his overall link-up play was beneficial to the team. Dessers' overall game contributes very little to the team. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, I am no Dessers fanboy, just don't like the abuse he tales when he is our most reliable source of goals in the last 10 years 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put Dessers in their team, he would have the trophies. Put Kyogo in ours and he wouldn't. SuperAlly would not have won with this team last few years. Neither has the UK's highest ever scoring defender Edited Wednesday at 23:43 by Ski 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
