McBurnie to Rangers 19:29 - Jun 3 with 6342 viewsMagic_Michu

I'm finding it distressing to hear report after report linking McBurnie to Rangers for ONLY £4 million.

We have in our ranks a striker who has proven that he will score 20 + goals in the championship.

For a young British striker who guarantees that sort of strike rate in the current market then it's easily £10 million + before you even consider an offer, surely?

He hasn’t. He’s had a very good half season on loan at Barnsley and people are translating that into goals for us. He was also a goal machine for the U23s to be fair.

I think Barnsley played him off a big target man and he poached quite a few of his goals. He’d be more than likely asked to lead the line here. Different game.

I’m sure he’d be an asset to us, but he nowhere near guarantees 20 goals.


Played him as a left winger actually and still scored that amount of goals. We would be nuts to sell, offer him a big contract and keep him on board.

Quite agree it would be ridiculous to sell him for the kind of prices quoted. I’d hope we keep hold of him, but wouldn’t put all my eggs in the McBurnie basket.

They played with a front three. I suppose you could class him as a winger in the same way as you could class Salah as a winger

Left forward as opposed to left wing. He did play left wing 3 times however, and as you would expect, scored 0.

He was playing off a target man in a 3 pronged attack, he was the left forward.

Its not McBurnies fault he wants away. We have given him no game time but we gave A Ayew plenty of chances and failed.


Gave him no game time?????? FFS.

He has happily taken wages whilst at a side in league that is too good for him.

Now we are at a level where he can possibly earn his wages he's pimping himself about.

Knuckle down or fuk off to the tinpot league up North, if hes not prepared to fight for the cause.

You've lost me there Res.
One start was it and some second half substitute appearances (many of them in the last few minutes)
Definitely very little "game time". Said all along he needed half a dozen games on the trot to really get to grips with his potential.

So if we lose McBurnie,Bony,the 2 Ayews and Abraham's loan is over..that means we're going to need minimum 2 more strikers (excluding 2 more playmakers/wingers)..

What kind of mess is this..Even small time Championship players like him and Bartley want out ffs..soon we'll be hearing the likes of Fer and Clucas wanting to leave as well..so much work to be done in these 2 months it's crazy.

Happily taken his wages??? He's a f#cking pro footballer, what do you expect him to do, play for fack all.

He's busted a gut to do well for the Swans, both at youth and senior level, if he's got a hankering to go back up North that could be nor a multitude of reasons you silly f#cking kunt.

I facking give up aye

I agree. We have to move fast and a new manager coming in really needs to be sorted. It has dragged on too long.
Radio silence needs to be dropped and we need to set out our intentions and then act upon them.

He was the one under 23 player to get a chance at senior level. I'm not sure how many minutes he played, both in the league but also the various cups but it was significant.

For one reason or another, but more like quite a few 'another's' he couldn't hold a place down, and rightly so.

He showed glimpses but that was never enough to warrant giving him a run of games.

He 'had' to go out on loan as we wasn't going to hold a place down in the EPL and anyone thinking he was are just clutching at straws or have just airbrushed his weaknesses out of their minds.

This is the level we're at now..

Bartley and McBurnie will be a huge loss on our assault to the summit.

I can't be dealing with this average sh*t.. I'll be sinking down to your Swansea level soon.

They give it all the talk in the West.. but when they're out of their comfort zone of averageness.. they revert to type, always..

The fact of the matter is.. McBurnie has one specific professional skill.. a poacher.

Huw Jenkins
Gary Richards
Cameron Toshack

Are not going to take that one valuable skill to the next level..

Only World Class eyes can improve him.

Steven Gerrard is World Class.. he might not have been a striker.. but he does have Michael Owen on speed dial if he's failing him.

You know Steve Gerrard is keeping taps on Skrtel..but his agent said that a deal is unlikely because Rangers can only afford about one fifth of Skrtel's reported 60 k/week salary in Turkey.

Point is..they can only afford to pay around 12 k/week for their highest earning player..

There is no way they'll put Ollie on higher than 10 k/week..Which also means..We can easily offer him double wages and if we're serious in keeping him. It's really up to the board..If we lose him it'd be a massive,unnecessary f*ck up.

He did but he only emerged late on where as Ollie had been flirting with senior level for a season and a half.

YES


For the next 2 years..we'll still be able to offer players decent wages with the help of parachute payments..Ollie is a good asset to have.

Nobody said that..it's only speculation.

But the thing is..McBurnie is a Rangers fan..the only way to keep him with us is by offering him big wages in comparisons to what they can offer.

What am I missing here?

How has he proved he can guarantee 20+ goals a season in the Championship when he hasn’t hit 10 goals in a season once in his career?

I like McBurnie but people are getting a little carried away.


He's had a good season, I really think he will be even better next season, just the type of player we need for the transition back to the Championship.

He's one I wouldn't want to lose.

Just like with Kyle Bartley. It seems madness to have persivered with him for so long when there are doubts if he is up to Premier League standard, and then sell him once we get relegated to a league where he's proven he's up to the standard. Absolute madness.

Can't find his wages but Mike Van der Horn is quoted to be on £11,000 a week and Mawson on £12,000.

I wouldn't have liked at McBurnie if we'd stayed in the Premier League but as we have seen with him and Abraham a quick player with a eye for goal and a bit of presence can do really well.
A number of sources coming up with Ghoddos as a player Potter with bring with him but I'd still prefer McBurnie.
(Sema would be a good buy - pace that leaves Barrow in his shadow and a decent player.)

Matt Grimes is on more than that. No way those figures are accurate.
