Chrambo Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Rangers won't be able to resist breaking their own rules on overpaying, especially after Scott Allan...as for us, it is totally contrary to our strategy to take players FROM English premiership. Think this could be the sticking point, wages. He'll have to take a big cut to end up back at Ibrox. Could be worth it though to put himself back in the window for a move back to Premiership.

Chris Benoit Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I'd take him in a heartbeat. Not sure what kind of money Rangers are chucking around on wages now but I'd doubt after a pretty stop start career so far he'd want to go play at a lower level even if it is only for a year.

BigC Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Would get into all 12 SPL squads and be a guaranteed starter for at least 9 clubs and in contention to start most games at 11 of 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Kilpatrick Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 The guy is a goalscoring threat so I would be interested. However, if we do have any funds for another player we should be looking at central midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 He's a really good player, but I'd be surprised if he came back up here. He'll get picked up by a championship side in England I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be worth it though to put himself back in the window for a move back to Premiership. I think rangers are still paying some bigger wages but not ?20k a week wages. As you say a potential sticking point. But, he seems to be posting a lot of rangers stuff on Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin_T Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Certainly didn't hold back on the GIRUYs in the games against Hearts.

Westendjambo Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 He hates to lose and seems like the aggressive type who plays for the badge regardless of whom he is playing for, therefor I wouldn't mind seeing him in a maroon jersey.

Floyd Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 It's amazing how that after winning our opening 4 fixtures, some on here think that we should be turning our nose up at signing a player of his caliber. I think it's the fact that he dared to once play for Rangers that has people taking this stance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bauld Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Unless we lose a player like Walker I see no point in it. I know Buaben is struggling, El Hass is injured and Anderson appears to be a bit Jimmy White. Pallardo will be back soon to strengthen the middle. You can't just sign player after player because a couple have injuries, financially it would ruin us. Not that I really want them to but Hibs should go all out to sign him. A player like that could be their only hope against Rangers this season. Plus I'd enjoy the seethe on bears den. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jammy T Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Rangers don't appear to want him. He looked the sort of player that could play in the central attacking midfield role. Definitely wasn't a striker or a winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely wasn't a striker or a winger. Probably a tangent, but, he's the second "attacking midfielder" I've seen suggested in the last day. Both have been met with comments about wingers. Neither player is a winger and we all seem to feel we want an attacking midfielder. He won't end up here, he'll go elsewhere, but the lad is a talent.

Ribble Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 He'll not be back in Scottish football, Celtic are the only team that could meet his wage expectations and they don't want/need him, we can't afford him and he won't go back to Rangers for 2 reasons, 1, they can't afford him so have brought in the showboating boy from Spurs on loan and 2, his national team manger has made it clear that playing in the Championship in Scotland will not see Vukic back in the national team!
