Incoming? Ryan Kent

[Rifleman ITK]

Too expensive.

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

Wages

[mattbianco1]

Why not

Give him a trial at least

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I've not been too supportive of a move for him in the past... but on a free transfer, maybe it's one we could make work?

A right footed left winger, an area we could definitely use some added depth in.

I'd fancy Wilder to get a tune out of it.

Don't think wilder has got a tune out of these Billy big bollocks type players yet.

See Ravel and that lad Sunderland fans loved for further reference

Why has his contract been
terminated? Could be a bad egg ( disruptive )
If that's the case Wilder wouldn't touch him with a
bargepole.

TBF to Ravel I don't think we heard anything but good things about him. He just wasn't good enough to break into one of our best teams ever.

 

[Shadota]

Feel free to correct me on this, but I'm pretty sure that because his contract has been terminated outside of a transfer window, we would have to wait until January to sign him, even though he is now a free agent.

I'd certainly take him though. Good dribbler, pacy, plays from the left wing. All traits which we are lacking at present. Wouldn't mind seeing us pick him up on a trial for the time being, just to make sure he's a good fit with the squad.

 

[mattbianco1]

We've got no chance now. We can't compete against massive clubs like that. GLTTL

 

[Berkshire Blade]

There's a reason players get let go.

There's also a reason English players go to the backwater that is Turkey when one of the biggest global leagues is on their doorstep and the potential to get into it is at quite a few championship sides.

They've got enough bloody kents as it is

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

I would normally see a contract terminated early as a massive red flag, but falling out with Jose Mourinho doesn't necessarily make someone a wrong'un

I think that we would be allowed to sign him now, he just wouldn't be allowed to be registered and play until the window opens. (I think)

[10-0 win]

Fehnerbache bringing in loads of new players over the summer also a significant reason for him not getting gametime.

 

[Blademan89]

Be daft not to tap him up for rest of season to provide competition for hamer, perfect signing with plenty of experience.

 

[SUFCinks]

I think if we can make the wages work he would be a great option to replace oHare in the 10 role. Much better feet, much faster, much more technical/creative.

You don't get your contract mutually terminated this early in the season just because the manager has remembered he's brought a lot of players in.
Somethings clearly not right.

 

[HeySethUTB]

Bump. I know he’ll split opinions but he’s still a free agent Blackburn rumoured to be sniffing around. On a free it’s low risk, potentially high reward.

I think if you look at the why he’s had his contract terminated it seems more likely the fall out he had with the manger happened because he’s said something silly/disrespectful during a meeting about lack of playing time (even fans were asking why he wasn’t starting). He was ostracised and this turned into breach of conduct and an employments right violation with the club to blame. I say this because Fenerbahce only agreed to terminate his contract when Kent told them he was taking his mistreatment to CAS (Court of Arbitration for Sport), it seems very much like an admission of guilt by the club because the outcome of any such legal dispute ends in non penalty termination of the players contract with the potential of sanctions put against the club.

That said its very strange that he’s not yet been picked up by anyone.

I still think he would be a good option. He has/had lots of talent and COULD be like a Ross Barkley & luton type signing but for us. Lads played at some of the highest levels in world football and had good games at that level.

I wouldn't be adverse to having him on a short-term deal with an extension option.

Allow him to cover the wide areas, plenty of cameo appearances, the odd rotatory start and see what he's all about.
That would be a low-risk transfer with potential upside. As you say, he does have the talent and the 'extension' incentive might bring out the best in him.

 

[HeySethUTB]

For me Kent is no brainer given that he’s fit and isn’t demanding too much. If he was to recapture his form at rangers he’d be a top quality left winger, it would allow Hamer to move centrally.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Would

 

[HOT CURRIE 10]

I was looking forward for this thread to resurrect itself after 4 seasons running,I’ve missed it dreadfully.

 

[Aquifer007]

Worth a punt for sure!

 

[Slug]

Could be a good option to bring off the bench to run at tiring defences.

I think he’d also be capable of playing behind the striker as a number 10. Like an Ndiaye type.

Ohh i’ve missed this thread!

 

[Groucho Blade]

Has he been without a club for months?

Will he need a ‘pre-season’ to get up to speed?

Sign him today and he should be ready for selection by QPR away on 1 March

 

[Bladethebrian]

He’s just a no
