Never seen the fuss about a young striker scoring goals huh.
We won't be receiving any few million pound offers for him in the near future. On current form the only player we should be receiving multi million pound offers for is Paul Smyth.
Closely followed by our two strikers in double figures but any offers should be balanced against how useful they will be for us next season. |
That’s not a Player Trading model though, rbee.
You sell at the top of their value, regardless of of league position. You reinvest part of the fees in - couple of players in behind who actually improve the squad.
Sell at the top, reinvest well. Rinse and repeat.
Doesn’t matter how useful they’d be next season. That’s a different approach.
How much confidence you have in our leadership’s ability to reinvest it successfully? Well, that’s a different matter. Perhaps it shouldn’t be the model? And, if it should, perhaps others should be executing it? |  | | |

Agree Hunter but you have to try and strike the balance even with our current model.
Hopefully Kolli, Kone and Burrell are not at their peak and shouldn't be sold for peanuts.
If we have to sell one of them for peanuts then that is also another subject. |  | | |

Strange .
Heard he’d picked up an injury midweek last week but saw him
In training pics later in the week .
Then not in squad.
Not for the first time is he the one bombed out .
I do agree with previous post that deleting all QPR social media does seem a little juvenile .
And another modern day player trait that annoys me .
But what I will say is that he will have been silenced once again by the CEO and perhaps that is the only way of him getting his point across |  | | |

Good luck to him.
Better off without fragile egos dragging him down at a crucial part of his development.
His Dad was posting cryptic French club badges and then quickly deleting them the last time he was shit on, I wonder if he'll go there. |  | | |

Is Kolli going to get any better? Based on this season compared to last you'd have to say no.
Look at Kone and Burrell. Both scoring, but much more importantly they impact the game when not. And you can see they will be even better next season and could potentially play in lower half PL.
Kolli? Has scored a few goals over two seasons against poor opposition (Sheff Weds, Norwich, Portsmouth), yet completely disappears in the majority of games.
I honestly couldn't name a game when he has been our best player when he didn't score. He just doesn't do enough.
He is behind Bennie now, who looks a much better all round team player, and is younger than Kolli.
If we can sell Kolli then he has to go. And I don't believe he'll be missed that much on the pitch. |  |

He is not “behind Bennie” in most people’s opinions. Ben Williams and Christian Nourry’s, perhaps, because they signed one and not the other. But I’m pretty confident most fans think Kolli is a better player than Bennie as thing stands, and has the potential to be a far superior player.
To also say that a 20 yr old isn’t going to get any better is a bit ludicrous. Of course he could.
You post is full of personal opinion dressed up as fact. And they’re opinions I doubt the majority agree with. However it’s the line I expect to see a little more of to justify the sale when it is announced. [Post edited 4 May 9:58]

Be surprised if we got £1m for him.
5 goals this season looks good until you dig deeper and see there were 2 v Sheff Weds, 2 v a rancid Pompey and 1 v Watford. Probably the 3 easiest games we had
Had a big chance for a run since Jan and never quite looked good enough.
There is potential there for sure, but I wonder if he ever reaches it.
Maybe a Lincoln type go for him this summer |  |

We have been here before. Im getting a little tired of the posturing coming from him (and his dad?)
If he doesnt want to be here then sell him. Better than having him around bringing the place down. Becuase if he stays we will be having yet another Kolli off thread in the next transfer window. |  |

A Lincoln type? How many other recently promoted teams, back into the 2nd tier after 65 years, with an iconic 13th century grotesque carved into an inner wall of its local cathedral are there? [Post edited 4 May 10:13]

I pay no attention to social media. All I see from the first team games and Development games (where Rayan is mostly a spectator these days) is a respectful young lad who gives his all when in an Rs shirt.
But okay let’s follow the model: sell an exciting young prospect and spunk the money on a no-mark with pound shop elastic-bands for hamstrings. |
This is a kid who gets people of their seats and has never gets a decent run in the side.
Hope he’s here for years but I very much doubt it. | | | |

Yeh expect Bennie to ascend to the level of Championship wunderkind over the next few weeks. He certainly didn’t look it on Saturday. Becoming tiresome all this now. |  | | |

This is one we should keep but if he is asking big money he has not earned the right yet we have 3 decent strikers who are promising. If he wont play sell him and see how he does. Sell on clause like eza | | | |
| Kolli Off on 09:56 - May 4 with 2944 views | Paddyhoops |
According to fotmob or transfermarkyt he’s played just over a thousand minutes which equates t o less than a quarter of our games .
Either through injuries or not been considered , that’s not a lot .
So for a twenty year old , I think he’s done well .
It doesn’t look like he’s face fits so it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s off. | | | |

Done it all while knowing they want to ship him out, and that his team mates know they want to ship him out regardless of his form. | | | |

I really don't get why we're not backing him more. Are people actually expecting a kid who’s been with us since 8 to come flying out the Dev Squad and transition seamlessly into the first team like some secret Kevin Gallen regen?
He’d have been swept up Sterling / Elliot style long before now. Most his peers are Nat League South at best.
Like Sheff Weds, Pompey etc. are some kind of Sunday league outfit where anybody with boots could bag.. take a look at those finishes + Plymouth away etc last season.
I could see someone punting £4m+ on that potential. |  | | |

I don’t think he is asking for big money. I think he’s asking for more minutes. Tbh, for a player of his age, profile and goals to min ratio, we should be looking to give him lots of minutes, especially if you operate a player trading model.
The fact we aren’t indicates the ego of those above is getting in the way of the best interests of the club. We all know a certain someone hates him and someone else has previously indicated he had little future at the club. | | | |

You maximise playing minutes for your most sellable assets who will bring in the most revenue.
Kone and Burrell are those two, you wouldn't play Kolli ahead of either of them, he's not good enough.
As someone else pointed out, look at who he scored against. He's going to be great in Holland or France. | |

Too many questions with Kolli that none of us appear to know all the answers to, but seems clear to us all it can't go on like this. Either he needs to sort himself out, Nourry and Williams need to resolve their personal issues, or we sell him for as much as we can get...or loan him for a year to France/Holland and review it in a years time.
He hasn't had enough games to say he'll be great or he won't, but I've said it before, the management of the whole situation with Kolli is embarrassing and another poor reflection on Nourry in my opinion. | | | |

I agree with the first statement. But it’s a straw man argument.
Behind those two, and possibly Madsen and Edwards, Kolli is the next big asset, given his age, goals to mins ratio, and profile. He looked at him in the West Ham cup game and the commentators said as much. We play 442. There is plenty of opportunity to give him mins. He could play the last 30 of every game. And Burrell was out injured for 3.5 months. There has been plenty of opportunity to give him more minutes.
It’s all a straw man to defend the ego of the hierarchy getting in the way of the best interests of the club.
If he scored 8-10 with 5-8 assists next season, at his age (bear in mind Burrell is 26), his value would be multiples what it is now. If you have him 20-30 mins every game and had him as your back up starter in case of injuries (surely not!), I think he’d get there. We haven’t even given him the minutes we could have this season. | | | |

Unless I'm much mistaken he's had the best minutes per goal involvement over the past couple of seasons and is demonstrably the best finisher at the Club.
You keep saying he's only scored against certain teams, but I'd counter that you can only score when you're actually picked. Kolli's never been given a run in the side for some reason (not helped by untimely injuries).
I agree he's behind Burrell and Kone in the pecking order, but not by too much, and is wayyy ahead of Bennie as both a striker, finisher and overall footballer |  |

He’s played over 2,300 first team career minutes. 700 odd since February. | |
