SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

I think Rangers would want him, but it just comes down to fee and what other options Lewis Ferguson's got and wages and all that sort of stuff, you know.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

I dare say Rangers would probably be willing to go pretty high for him, but again, it'll depend on options he's got.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

But yeah, look, it's clearly one that Rangers want to get.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

I'm just not sure, Andrew, that it would be possible.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

I don't want to beat your mouth.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

staying up he then gets into the world cup squad as well would you fully expect that he is now a fully fledged member of rangers first team 100 questions asked 100 i'm a huge fan of him i think he's very very good he is he's quick he makes things happen he's a good size he gets a goal he can create

SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

Steve Clarke loves him I think he'll go and he's got every chance given the fitness issues of Ben Ganondale and he probably offers something a bit different I'm not saying he's going to start games in the World Cup but I definitely think he can play a part to me the loan deal was good for him I think Rangers could have actually done with him for the second part of the season but I think the loan deal worked really well you get more experience and he works ever so hard he's got an end product and yeah to me he shouldn't be going out on loan again he should go back in to be part of Rangers first team squad

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

they're the ones that potentially you're looking at what type of fee would that take anyone else below that it's more a sort of youngster that you're looking to come in maybe supplement the squad and in a couple of years can go on to then become a starter yeah and someone like Luke Graham to me would fit that bill I really like him again I think he has developed really well under Steven Presley can he go and knock out 60 games a year for Rangers I'm not so sure just now but I think he's one that you need to take you need to try and get anyway Elliot Watts another one that you look at

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

you know he's eligible for Scotland he played for the 21s he's going to be available for a certain fee maybe 3 million or something from another well again do you go and take him but it's not just I think what we have to be careful is it's not just let's just Rangers can't just have a scenario but let's just sign loads of Scottish players you know but you need to not overlook the ones that are staring you right in the face and I think Andrew Cavanagh has already said that's what they're going to do

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

Yeah, and see when Oli McBurnley first came out, Andrew, and said that he'd phone Steve Clarke, I knew Steve Clarke would react in that way.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

I don't think anyone who's watched Steve Clarke for the last seven years as Scotland manager knew that yet.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

Look, as Marv says, he...

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

he obviously just has decided that Oli McBurnie is not for him I don't think he could have done any more to be fair to him to try and get into the squad and he was even speaking yesterday after the game where he said look I respect the decision now and you know I wish Scotland all the best but I don't think there was ever any chance of him getting in the squad Let's speak to Alec who is a Celtic fan in Renfrew Alec what have you got for us this evening?

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

was speak to Laurence Shanklin to say I want you to stay and it was you know it was really really 50-50 and to be perfectly honest he got to the stage where Hartz had started pre-season training and Laurence Shanklin wasn't there I always remember him I think he went to Spain to meet up with him and they clearly had to make the compromise that would potentially put themselves in this position but I don't think anyone to be fair to Hartz could really have foreseen the circumstances that's happened and

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

how things have panned out, both for Hearts and both for Rangers, to the point where Lauren Shanklin became so sought after and that Rangers were happy to do it.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

Yeah, it does.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

I mean, you think back to Ange Postacoglu's first year and I think if you look at the work Celtic did that summer and then into the January, I think it basically kept the core of the team for the next three, four years.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

I think last summer was so topsy-turvy.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

There was clearly a lot of politics at play at the club with everything that was going on with Brendan Rodgers on the board and how that turned out as well.

Superscoreboard
SHANKLAND TO RANGERS? | SUNDAY 24TH MAY

But as I was saying earlier, Andy, I think whether it's Martin O'Neill or whether it's someone else, I think Celtic have to
