We will, inevitably, have a big clear out this summer. Good. There’s barely a player in that squad who you could argue is essential to next season. Our recruitment this last two years has been abysmal.
We have to be brutal and push some players out the door. That includes players that continue to deceive the support. It’s taken me a long time to come round to the Tav, Goldson issue and I seem to be alone in spotting that Matondo is one of the worst footballers ever to steal a wage from us. Midfield is so passive, so uninspiring. As for Dessers, I can’t recall ever watching a Rangers number 9 receive a ball and not reacting with hope, excitement, anticipation. It’s a case of I wonder how he’ll lose this ball. He rarely surprises me.
Koppen has shown imagination in his scouting. Diomande has shown real promise and Cortes vastly improved our wide play (an area we are so poor in). Hopefully his injury heals in time for a decent pre-season and we can negotiate a drop in the option price.
I hate to say this but our rivals had a similar deadwood clear out in summer 2021 and, through good recruitment, quickly put a new team on the park. It cost them money, but not an astronomical amount.
Over to you Nils.
