We constantly hear that the only way forward for us is to be a development team bringing in players on the cheap, bringing them on and selling them for a profit. I think that we need to have a serious rethink about this for a number of reasons.
The crash in value of Championship players. I think we have missed the boat regarding “doing a Brentford “. If you discount the chances of a once in a decade Eze, how much are Chair, Willock and Dieng now worth?
Having the best first team squad possible. Instead of selling Rangers as a club where you can come, improve and sell on , why not just get players who want to play for the club NOW and see it the place to be? If that means they are slightly older, so what? There’s always a place for a Richard Dunne, Nelson and for those of us who are a bit older, McClintock and Webb. Luton and especially Millwall have definitely gone down this route, signing players who fit team now and both are in the playoffs with a chance of making the Premier League. |  |
