    Simms will not be going back to Tinpot, if the Rangers rumour isn’t true he is Championship bound, Millwall, Middlesburgh & Blackpool all interested
    Aye they’re now pretending not to be bothered about simms going back.

    I'll believe it when I see it in the yearly accounts. It might be that amount with add ons like winning the CL lol......
    This isn't rangers supporting journalists saying this. It's not some spin from the club.

    Aribo is quality, £10 million for him really isn't that much even in the last year of his contract.

    He consistently performed at an incredibly high standard in the Europa League, Southampton won't mind paying £10 mill at all.

    Yep. If Rangers do hold out for the release clause which they certainly have time to do, that's 10 million up front

    People up here need to understand that English clubs have an almost bottomless pit of money to spend.

    Would be good if Hertz missed out on Simms and Shankland.
    I’d be gutted if they missed out on Shankland. They’d be paying £500k and he’s pish.

    Same. I'd be delighted they signed Shankland especially for that fee. Simms on the other hand is very good.

    Would take Shankland in a heartbeat

    Truth is we probably cannot afford him

    The guy is far from pish scoring almost 1:2 career goals from 324 appearances including 28:33 for United in 2019/2020

    The guy is quality still only 26 and I have no doubt he would be a success at Hibs

    The Rangers not interested in Simms

    We've already got Nisbet, Youan, Melkersen and Bojang. Even if we could afford him we can't have 5 strikers for one position.

    My argument is that he is far from pish

    Happy for Hearts to spend 500k on him 😀

    Agreed. Unless something goes badly wrong I'd expect Shankland to have a hit rate of 1 in 3 and be 10+ goals in a season. You are getting track record and a bit of certainty with a signing like that.

    Our top scorers last season were Boyle (11), Nisbet (6), Scott (4) and at the moment we are relying on Nisbet coming back firing/ Doidge recapturing some form/ Youan/Melkerson hitting the ground running. Still far from certain what we are getting.

    Shankland has the experience and proven track record

    We would just need a ‘Martin Boyle’ to set up the chances for him

    £10m is an absolute steal for Aribo. He’s quality and I’ve always said he’d do well in the EPL.

    Fabrizio Romano reporting that it's £6m + add ons. As you say he's quality.

    Just for balance, he has scored 17 goals in his last 68 games, and his last season in the Scot Prm he scored 8 goals in 32 games.

    What was his record on his 1 season in the premiership ? Gordy just answered that above. Not exactly great!

    His stats are massively skewed in his favour as most of his goals are championship level.

    Don’t think he’s a bad player but nowhere near as good as some think.

    8 goals

    Obvious to a blind man running for a bus that his overall play assists and quality had improved making it into the Scotland setup

    Agree but nowhere near the pish that Winston suggests

    Would take him as a Marquee signing if it was doable

    I think he will score a decent amount with the right service - think he’d be a quality addition for Hearts and us for that matter.

    Agree.

    Shankland in a team finishing top four would score more than his fair share.

    Shankland has barely scored a goal in the last couple of years. Would be more concerned if they got Simms, he’s qualify for such a young player. If the currant buns sell Aribo I can see him at Ibrox.

    The chat is that he will sign the current offer if he gets the armband. Which sounds like madness but there has been plenty chat about it. Certainly a player saying he will stay if he's made captain doesn't sound much like captain material to me.
    Maybe it's not "if you stay you'll be captain" but more,"We view you as the captain but if you're going to leave we'll look daft announcing it then needing to replace you in a few weeks time so let us know what's happening?"

    Similar but slightly different, one is the captaincy being used as a bargaining chip, the other is that Ryan is their natural choice but we're protecting ourselves from the usual suspects and their hibsd it type" banter".

    Is Hanlon ok with losing the captaincy? Or will he be "Club Captain" like Gray was?

    Going on his scoring record in the top league it would be more of a four man tent than marquee. He's no better than what we have in doidge and nisbet and we've no idea how good or otherwise our new guys are.
