Rangers interested in Hamer (14 Viewers)

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Champions League? Winning some silverware? Wage rise / signing on fee? Being at one of the top clubs in their league. Can think of a few reasons why he might be tempted, obviously with my Sky Blue specs on I disagree with them all, but then I’m not him or his agent.

Wants to play ENGLISH football

You think someone would offer us £10m for Hamer right now. You are out of your mind.

What I think he's worth and what someone would offer are 2 different questions.

No chance this window but come the summer if he has a strong second gag to the season he will be worth nearer £10m than £5m. You only have to look at recent championship transfers .....

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

We will get an 8 figure fee for him

 

[SBAndy]

I foresee that he will stay until next January’s window. We tend to make our bigger sales in the January window and it generally means you get more money in. I also foresee the fans going mental because he isn’t replaced - for exactly the same financial reasons.

 

[Mcbean]

politely please they can fuck right off !

 

[Deleted member 11652]

£5 mil and I’ll be happy assuming his form stays the same.

 

[Astute]

First club to build us a stadium in Coventry can have him.

Yep - Norwich want £40m for Buendia. Not saying anyone is going to offer us £10m for Gus now, but if we didn't get at least that for him in the summer (and I don't want to sell him, as I'd like to see him play for us in the flesh) then I'd be unhappy, as he will be sought after by several suitors. Go back a few years and you'll find some of my old posts about how good Wimbledon (the originals) were brilliant at talking up the value of their players, and sticking out for the price. Just a few '£20m rated Bapaga' type' comments via local journalists. Set our own agenda re: prices.

 

[covcity4life]

Hopefully not true although rangers are so good right now I'm sure he would excel there

Some people laughed at us getting a fee over 5m.

I don't think we should settle for anything less though.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Does one full season in the Champ takes it by storm and summer value is easily £10m+.

 

[Skybluefaz]

He is basically a better version of Gerrard

Just make sure we stay in the league

Main reason, Gerrard didnt play for us

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Main reason Gerrard didnt play for us

If only Stevie had Michael Doyle alongside him eh

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

If only Stevie had Michael Doyle alongside him eh

He (Stevie) would have been an even better player then

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

He (Stevie) would have been an even better player then

Would never have slipped with Doyle ramming a rocket up his arse

I am hoping you are joking if only for your credibility.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Probably wouldnt be alive to tell the tale in the same team as doyler if he cost a title

Yeah sure, but the question was why would he want to play for Rangers (as if there was no possible reason) and that was a list of possible reasons. Not saying he does want to play for them, but if a decent offer came in he’d have a decision to make for sure.

 

[Woodster]

The total package would have to be very close to a club record fee to let him go for me, on the proviso we stay up of course. From what I’ve seen he’s not just our stand-out player, he’s one of the league’s stand-out players.

[Malaka]

They can do one

I didn't say which Gerrard.

 

[Super Graham Withey]

For me Hamer is overrated. He gives the ball away far too much. If the money is right, move him on,

This must be a joke

No not a joke, just an observation based on watching every game this season to date,

Odd, mostly everyone else on this forum really rates him.

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

I’m sure Strachan put a bid in for Gerrard at one point

 

[SleepyGinger]

3 million?? We sold Bayliss for 2 after a good season in league 2 and an average one in league 1. Absolute nonsense, want double that, I don’t think Rangers can afford him.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

We'd be mad to sell him for anything less than £5m. Already come to terms with the fact he's only going to be here for one season though.

 

[Bugsy]

nonsense, he's been the player of the season so far ...PUSB

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Even if it obviously wrong. I can't see him not sweeping player of the season awards. Unless he leaves.

 

[Skybluefaz]

Who has been the best player so far then?

 

[Gibbo]

There is a point where the additional benefit of Hamers' extra quality is bettered by having more of other players paid for by the transfer fee earned by selling him. If £1m bought Walker and £1.5 bought Hamer in the first place, clearly even £3m gets you two or even three quality players. And makes you less reliant on one man.

Doubling our money in only 12 months, by any measure, would be good business normally. However in a competitive market we have look for more than that. Who knows how to value footballer, least of all us lot, but £5m must be the starting point.

There is no point selling him in January, assuming we get a bid, unless Covid is really clobbering us. His value can only rise, and a sale now jeopardizes the fight against relegation, so would be shooting ourselves in the foot.

In short - max on the cash in summer - particularly the up front money - fill the gaps for next season - left wing back, central defence cover, attacking midfield.

Maybe even flog Godden and put that money down as a contribution towards getting an upper-Championship level striker.
