Looks to me like Gerrard is trying to build a bit of physical size into the team now as part of his style. If you read Alec Ferguson's stuff he used to look at the build of a player first then scope out the rest of his game. Can't be a bad approach.

Stevie I hope we ride these clowns 🤡.

12 Jun 2018 23:07:13
I heard a recent interview with Gerrard where he said that although it was important to have skill and ability he liked his teams to be physical. Exactly what we need. Get rid of the "after you" attitude right off and we"ll do well.

12 Jun 2018 22:18:14
Cheers lads will sleep easy now.

13 Jun 2018 10:48:30
What the hell is the delay with goldson any one know

12 Jun 2018 21:31:15
So all the tims can't work out why we have bought a player and buying more. On hotlines openlines asking how . How can it be . Our beloved Phil and our friends in the media told us Rangers had no money . Surely Phil wasnt lying. Phil would never lie to us. the papers wouldn't lie to us. Maybe your sources are paranoid. Paranoia does many a thing to the brain. Paranoia brings fear and makes you dillusional. Paranoia makes you obsessed with things you don't like. One thing is true in your obsessed paranoid state of mind we are coming to get you.

Ha ha ha love it best post ever

12 Jun 2018 21:55:50
😂😂Ill Phil! The gift that keeps on giving. You do know the gullible mhankies actually pay to read his ramblings. 🤣🤣🤣

13 Jun 2018 00:00:32
Spot on C. F bear. Remember the old saying. Just because I am paranoid, it doesn't mean they are not out to get me.

12 Jun 2018 18:12:25
Just looked at that lad umar sadiq. As you said he's a bit rough but could do a job with his height and with further game time may be a hidden gem

12 Jun 2018 17:13:25
Looking at our transfers so far its pretty exciting;

McGregor big step up on Fod (though he is a good stopper) and 3 or 4 more years at the top.

Goldson get this over the line suspense is killing me 25 just entering his peak.

Katic never seen the guy but 21 and highly thought of

Murphy good player hopefully better this year with more support, better players around him 28 at his best

Arfield regular in Burnley first team till his calf injury 29 again at his best

Ejara this one puzzles me Liverpool won't want him warming the bench but his performances last year at Sunderland just not good enough. Please let me be wrong

Whichever way you look at it this is a big step up from last year.
I'd like to see Hutton free, McBurnie permament, Wilson loan (with option) and Solanke loan that's a lot of new faces.

12 Jun 2018 18:09:29
blue pete, still another cb, alves will sulk and go, hutton all day long. powerhouse midfielder, i'd take jednick of villa, never mcburnie, what's he done.

13 Jun 2018 00:07:07
Would really love to see McBurnie sign for us. Big strong centre forward, young, fit and desperate to play for the jersey. I think he would bang them in for fun, especially if he gets good service.

12 Jun 2018 16:17:02
Anyone any idea about this lad from Roma is he any good.

12 Jun 2018 16:36:02
Look ok. A bit rough around the edges but could do a job here. You can YouTube him and see for yourself.

12 Jun 2018 17:21:32
Sadiq umar would tear the spl up like a young kanu with usain bolts pace.

12 Jun 2018 16:09:35
The big Swedish lad we had on trial has just signed for Bradford. On ssn.

12 Jun 2018 15:47:19
With the Katic deal complete and Goldson on his way, I'd like to see another 6 players in and I think we'll have done very well this summer.

Full Back-I think Hodson and Wallace will both be leaving so a player capable of playing on either flank to provide competition.

Centre Back-I think one of Alves and Cardoso will go so a replacement for them to give us four good centre back options and also young Aidan Wilson maybe coming into the fold as well.

Centre Mid-I can see Holt and Halliday leaving so bringing in an experienced no nonsense Midfielder. Usually I would say we have more than enough options here but just going with the amount of injuries picked up last season, one more wouldn't hurt.

Winger-Young pacy winger, possibly Wilson or Kent again as an alternative option to Candeias and Murphy. Hopefully Middleton gets a few games also.

Centre Forward x2-I would like to see Cummings come back, I think he has a lot more to offer than he showed last season. Also would like a strong player to hold the ball up again as an alternative to Morelos or a replacement depending on what happens with that, maybe Solanke on loan but we shall see.

Just my opinions and of course we have to see if clubs are willing to take some of the squad players off our hands and what Gerrard wants in the team but yeah that's what I would like to see happen.

12 Jun 2018 15:56:19
I agree with most mate hope morelos stays tho

12 Jun 2018 15:58:34
Think if Cummings was coming back it would have been done by now

12 Jun 2018 16:38:25
ArthurD I do agree that it seems to have ran its course, would have been good back up but I have faith that Gerrard and Allen have a lot more good business to come!

12 Jun 2018 19:25:53
MCFEC

I agree think Cummings was worth another go

12 Jun 2018 20:48:13
Welcome to the mighty Glasgow Rangers Nikola. may you’re stay bring you and us much success

LETS GO

13 Jun 2018 17:03:17
Very happy with the Katic deal advice it’s exactly the profile we should be chasing, not all will work out but £2M is peanuts in today’s market. I’ve never seen the man play but hopefully he’ll be a star and sort out our worst position from last season. If we get Goldson in as well that’s good business for starters. Lots of good Bosmans around just now now also to supplement the squad, I’d go for Mulumbu and Hutton for starters, would be open to McAuley for a season and if we could get Solanke on loan as well then happy days. Long way to go in the window, 1 month till Europe starts and lots of business to be done!

Very impressed by the speed of this deal also, congrats to the men behind the scenes.

12 Jun 2018 15:36:19
I wonder if all those who disagreed with me when I said we’d gazump Spartak Moscow are feeling a tad stupid now! 🤪🤪

12 Jun 2018 16:30:41
Well done sir. Where were all the people with inside info on this?

12 Jun 2018 18:01:33
Bluepete I didn’t have any inside info. I only replied to the nae sayers who were bleating on he was going to Moscow that it wasn’t a done deal and we could gazump them. Que the disagree button going into meltdown. 😂😂🤦‍♂️

12 Jun 2018 14:55:42
I read some celtic fans have been asking where we're getting the money from to buy players, lol, obviously they're starting to panic, scared much ;-)

12 Jun 2018 15:08:22
I read that on the record hotline. They are laughable.

12 Jun 2018 14:08:22
Buzzing! The news coming from Ibrox is tremendous! Quality players are being brought in with sell on value too, but hey, if they perform and get us back to the top, who would want to sell anyway? Good time to be a bear at long last! LEEEETTTSSSS GOOOOO!

12 Jun 2018 14:32:17
Damn right buzzing

12 Jun 2018 14:53:03
Skidney damn tooting mate. You really have to feel sorry for all the smellies who come on here day after day after day just to disagree with every single post! 🤦‍♂️🤭🤭🤭🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

12 Jun 2018 12:50:06
I said last week we were going to be making strides end of week to start of week. 3 signings imminent!

Let’s go!

12 Jun 2018 13:05:41
Cmaaaaaan exciting times boys

12 Jun 2018 14:48:33
Also said about investment and there r big rumours going around about Hummel getting the naming rights for Murray park. I’m full of shite eh. start believing, things are on the way up for us!

Let’s go!

12 Jun 2018 15:04:40
Investment won't be coming any time soon. Money being made available for the spine of the team.

12 Jun 2018 15:23:29
There’s talk of Hummel taking naming rights on Murray park, 100%- this is what you call investment .

12 Jun 2018 12:22:15
That's another one away at the SFA
NS Rangers

12 Jun 2018 09:36:23
First time on here Goulson looks a good signing. And Croatian player Katic.
Arfield will be a standout.
And young Roma player looks good too

12 Jun 2018 10:17:50
Goldson does
Look good mate excited to show all the doubters

12 Jun 2018 12:52:11
Slowly going about our business. The start of a new spine of the team. Shagger, Goldson, Katic, Rossiter and Arfield. Hopefully a few more to follow.

12 Jun 2018 20:54:14
Please don’t forget mcorrie. jack . and the doc . boys deserve a good chance

12 Jun 2018 05:34:16
Couldn't believe when I read the report the the team in Portugal not only want us to simply free Alaves they also want us to pay out his contract to off set them not being able to afford to pay him a signing on fee like wtf? Are these people for real they want us to give them our player and pay the transfer fee as well we need to toughen up with players we don't have to cash Chelsea or man city have if Alaves himself really wants out of rangers and back home to Portugal then it should be HIM paying US compensation to get out of his contract people really need to get real and stop trying to take our club for mugs.

12 Jun 2018 06:33:52
Situations like that always seem to happen to us on a regular basis Tommy, we always seem to tie up players on decent money and longer contracts and can’t seem to get shot of them, but in the case of Alves I hope he stays as he is a decent defender

12 Jun 2018 08:53:38
There are a few astute businessmen on the board and won't be taken as mugs. That said, you've got to question some of the wages paid for players signed up last season who have contributed little when you consider that top Hibs earners are on 3K a week and we just pipped them to 3rd place. Either Lennon is a genius or we've under performed massively. Aberdeen's salary structure is no doubt on par with Hibs. Under normal circumstances and business practices shareholders would be shouting their heads off in anger.

12 Jun 2018 11:55:22
Did s aloko not pay some or all the transfer to move to rangers
