[Albion] Rangers Interested in Murphy

[severnside gull]

Not sure Rangers have any cash?
Suspect Sheffield United might be interested in buying him back but the price is going to be in the order of £2m-£3m if we are going to sell at all.
Personally I would keep him as I think he could perform at this level.
I'd let Skalak and LuaLua go though

I doubt Rangers have the type of money that will buy Murphy. In today’s market he’s got to be worth at least £2m.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

A loan out for Murphy is better for now - in the worst case we could do with him in the Championship next year

 

[BensGrandad]

I would think that he would only be worth about £1.5m top whack and we would be happy to get that.

Someone has got to be 4th choice winger.

I'm amazed that choices 1,2 & 3 have all remind fit and healthy for half a season.
Knockaert still shouldn't be walking after Watford, away.

Rangers are L1/L2 standard. He'd be an absolute superstar for them and probably get sold back to a Prem club for around 20 mill where he'd fail miserably... sell on clause needed.

I like Murphy. There’s talent there for sure. He has the ability to beat a man, he works hard defensively, and he can finish. Unfortunately, like others have said, his decision making isn’t ideal and it often lets him down at vital moments. For me he’s a good Championship player who could probably do a passable job in the Premier League, but, like Skalak, we should be looking to upgrade sooner or later.

 

[NooBHA]

it hasn't, it was always at that level. Skillful player but lacking up top where the decision making process takes place.

Those 74 appearances are over two and half seasons and you neglect to differentiate between starts and subs?

Probably best to off load him in this window to free up space in the 25, especially as he isn't a home grown player!

And prey tell where you are gonna find a better back up player for less than paying about £5m for ?

After Barbers comments I wonder who this inside source is. Me smells BS

Doesn't really matter. If we were selling Dunk or Stephens or Propper we would need to be damn sure who we were going to replace them with, and be damn sure we'd be getting them. But the need to have a replacement for our 4th. or 5th. choice winger - not so important. We have good attacking fullbacks, so could double them up - Bong and Suttner on the left, Bruno and Schelotto on the right. Or even - heaven forbid - we could give one of our youngsters a chance. I've checked it out, and we are actually allowed to play U23 or U18s in the first team, believe it or not...........................................

And Ahannach is over 21 so really needs to either be in our 25 man squad or out on loan anyway.

Boooooooooooo

About his level L1/lower championship

But in the last two seasons he helped us finish top 3 of the Championship twice. I'd say his level is top half of the Championship. Where you get the idea that he's L1 level I have no idea.

Do you really think that he would be valued at anywhere near that price to buy a replacement.

 

[albionalex]

When Fulham, Sunderland and Rangers were linked in the summer, the fee mentioned was £4million.

Seems odd we would sell him for less than we paid for him (I believe it was around £2million after clauses).

 

[Don Tmatter]

Swap him for Rangers's right back Tavernier, thought he had a storming game today.

Nooooooo...doesn't have the pace for the Championship let alone the Premiership...

I am a Gers fan and there is no one in their squad who would improve our team.

As for the 'Great Unwashed' , likewise......


Best look to Europe for the signings...

Never stopped them before.
