He will be offloaded if we can despite many, many posters saying how good he was and he is far better than Wallace. Sadly, he has a 4 year contract!!! |  | |  |

Can just imagine the chat now - 'Hi Niko, we've had offers from Rochdale, Crewe, Barrow and LA Galaxy for you...any of those moves sound of interest?
probably.' |  |

would be on low money. you never know...stranger things have happened he might start pulling up trees. Get busy living.. | | | |

It's good for him that he is getting playing time and good for us as one less wage to pay. I would prefer if it was in League 1 as I feel the experience would be more relevant and beneficial. I don't think he will 'toughen up' over there. Anyway, wish him all the best. | | | |

Kane will be more problematic to move on, even on a free. Being banned from playing the next 6 games and with a now difficult reputation, will there be a club prepared to take him to which he'd be happy to go? |  | | |

This kid is going to live a hell of a life for 65 games of football. |  | | |

I think there will be enough takers for an experienced right/wing back at this level. Especially for those that get off to a bad start. But how will it work? Will we have to cancel his contract so he becomes a free agent? | | | |

MLS season ends the first week of November (excluding playoffs.) So Niko will be back for a couple of months to change his underwear, before he's off somewhere else. Probably. | | | |

I'm not sure. There must be several ways it could be done. A mutual agreement to cancel his existing contract with us so he can accept an offer from another club would be one way. A club prepared to buy out his contract with us - he's got one year left - would be another. Or just an offer of £x amount for the transfer and agreed terms with the player. | | | |

Interesting that LA Galaxy had to pay Chicago Fire $50k in order to secure this deal (some sort of draft pick). They probably get more from this deal than us. | | | |

Haha great post aston_hoop the same thought crossed my mind .Perfect weather most of the year and beautiful people walking/skating around as well as some of the finest dining and nightlife in the World its not hard choice.
Of course the wages are low and with the cost of living high it might be a slight bit rougher but not much.
Stay ouf of those houses in the mountains or canyons of course horrific wildfires most years sadly |  | | |

I thought he said that a few teams would pay £9m for him? Has he not shared their numbers? |  |

Poor decision with hindsight by the club to give him a 4 year contract, which he's less than a year into, I believe. If he was good enough then, why is he not good enough now? For me, from what I've seen to him, there are too many deficits in his game for him to go on to cut it at Champ level, and it looks like Warburton now agrees. |  |

Chuck Oberhoser III, IBS News, Footsoccer round up:
'LA Galaxy has swooped like a mighty condor to secure the signing of the versatile Nicky Hamsterlineman from London Rangers. The Finlandian international is able to play at either defensive end or wide receiver for the offensive special team. Manager Hulk Gundercrust has got himself a real humdinger of a signing! Go Ocelots! ' [Post edited 6 Aug 2021 20:41]

That extension did come in the middle of the Manning / BOS panic and I don’t think it will bite us too hard - he’s a decent player and he’ll find a club if we don’t want him. |  | | |

Can't agree that he's decent on current evidence - always vulnerable to being caught out at corners, lacks physical strength, and diffident and/or usually ineffective going forwards. Doesn't seem a good reader of the game to boot. As he's not even managed two dozen games at Champ level despite being 25 next birthday, one has to wonder if US 'soccer' or the mighty Kilmarnock aren't a more accurate gauge of his talents.
Hope he proves me wrong as the likes of Dykes and Wallace have in spades, but I just can't see it. | |

The MLS is a tough league. Flights everywhere. Players wear special compression clothing to combat the effects of pressurisation. One week you are playing in the altitude in Colorado, a few days later in the heat and humidity of Florida and then next the icy wind of Chicago. | | | |

Because he's such a big-time footballer, he'll spend his time chillin' with the Kardashians, eating steak at Morton's, recreating the Richard Gere character in Pretty Woman (and then getting arrested for it), and hanging out with bikini-clad beauties on the beach. | | | |

Firstly, he'll have to impress at LA...which won't be easy. Little surprised they've shown an interest, but delighted as it exemplifies our thoughts that Rangers products are becoming sought after commodities in the football world. | |
