Depends on what they want for him
but If it was based on a direct replacement for Fredo: No.

I would, could be another Kris Boyd. For those who argue Boyd didn't score in the "big" games, he always scored in and won the points in the games that we've struggled in recently, Accies, St Johnstone, Hearts etc.

I agree SirStruth and kris boyd didn't get selected to start in our majority of big games. You're correct mate, we most definitely can beat celtic, its the stupid points we lose to the so called smaller clubs is our problem. Shankland could score the goals against they teams which in turn could turn us into title winners. Far too quick folk on here write players with smaller clubs off by saying they're not good enough for us, how do you know?

Shankland is a goalscorer in the lower leagues so was Nicky Clark. can't see then letting him go on the cheap unless strapped for cash. Could have had him free last year must have been deemed not good enough.

As highlighted by GaryStevens, it would depend on what we had to pay for him. We will need a quality squad for next season, something we have lacked up til now and it has shown in our results post Christmas. Shankland could be used in games agains lesser clubs. However, if Morelos is to leave then we will need a proven quality striker from a better league than the Scottish Championship.

Spot on SGL. I have been saying this all season. Lawrence Shankland would score for fun against the lesser teams. That's been our problem for a few seasons now. It's no good beating the mankey mob and end up drawing with the lesser teams the following week. That's 2 points dropped every time. Believe me they soon mount up. We need a predator in the box, and that's exactly what a player like Shankland is. ONWARDS AND UPWARDS THE FAMOUS.

all these players we are being linked with, shankland, ferguson, dykes cosgrove, the prices being bumped around are between 10 and 12 million for the lot, let's be honest would anyone in their right minds pay that, all their clubs are bordering on skint and would play hardball, to me i think its a non starter.

Ger4life - if we want respect we must learn to respect the 'lesser' teams who beat us or took points from us especially since the Dubai trip!

I would of took Shankland for free when he was at Ayr, the other 3 are not going to help Rangers win the league, unless your happy with 2nd place again.

Like the Stuck says, if you would be happy with the likes of Shankland or Hickey or Souttar or Docherty or Dykes or Boyle you'd also have to be happy with second place - or worse. They are all about two levels down from what we need to secure a league title and to sustain a run in Europe.

guys Morelos couldn't score against the lower level teams because we couldn't get the ball to him.

its the midfield that we need to have sorted with a decent number 10 to play the killer pass.

this year shankland wouldn't have scored for fun because we wouldn't have got the ball to him.

Not for the money he would cost no.

I would but not 1st choice.

Guys, our current squad got us, 2nd Place, oh wait a minute, that's not good enough, so, why are we so happy to discount other options. I know that it's all about personal opinions, but, at present, we're not good enough to win this league, and SG and RW know this, so we'll see what they come up with within a reasonable finance perspective.
