I know it's not a fashionable opinion or the answer to our overall issues but IMO if you had that lad Murray up top and played him in a high number of SPL games, he would score a lot of goals for us. He always a pain in the ass when he plays against us. To go further, IMO he would score more than Danilo based on the same amount of games played. And he wouldn't cost 6 million. 

Yeah, it's just his age; he's one of these late bloomers.

If only he took every chance that falls to him he’d be on a hundred goals for the season so far. 😅

No striker scores every chance. If he was more prolific, he wouldn't be at Rangers and would have cost considerable more than 5 million.

And less league goals than Simon Murray, who cost nothing, and is on less than our tea lady... 🙈

That's not what I said though.  Dessers record is almost 1 in 2 games over ALL competitions in less than 2 seasons. Quite a record no matter how you want to portray it.

 

Simon Murray isn't our player, he scores goals, no doubt about it, but so did Shankland. I'd have neither at Ibrox as first, or 2nd choice striker. 

 

Weirdly, Danilo, who has contributed the square root of nothing compared to Dessers escapes the scrutiny, abuse and negativity that Dessers unfairly receives.

Unfashionable, and untrue.  

 

Murray has scored 0.47 goals per 90. 

 

Danilo has scored 0.65 goals per 90.

 

Murray is effective when he has space to run into, which he wouldn't get with us.

Once again, read my post, I never quoted you.

Though thought Danilo played well when he came on.
