17 Jun 2018 20:51:03
Now we are talkin . not old overrated has beens but young enthusiastic exciting players with loads of ambition . let’s go
17 Jun 2018 21:33:20
SG said to be monitoring Jordan Jones from Kilmarnock with a possible move just shortly. Anyone think this could be a good move? Fits Gerards philosophy for high pressing and quick attacks.
17 Jun 2018 23:34:05
we already enquired about him at xmas which came directly from his agent but neither party i cld come to an agreement over a deal
anytime i’ve seen the lad he’s been quick and direct
17 Jun 2018 23:42:51
I like the lad
18 Jun 2018 00:17:48
I think Gerrard’s philosophy is win football matches by any means necessary. That’s what he was like as a captain anyways. I don’t think he is a fan of one type of play, which is meant to be why him and Brenda did not see eye to eye at times (allegedly) .
18 Jun 2018 00:43:48
I thought he was talking about Jordan rossiter
17 Jun 2018 20:38:50
Cardoso and Herrera not on Spain trip. Looks like they're toast. On the up side Katic and Goldson look fekin 'HUUUUGE! '. No more easy shifts for strikers v us. Seriously, they dwarf every other player in training 👍.
17 Jun 2018 20:45:24
Scratch the Cardoso bit-he’s there.
17 Jun 2018 22:12:37
Herrera there too, picture of him at airport
17 Jun 2018 22:31:24
A good little un, will always beat a good big un, Confucius, he say, 😂😂😂
17 Jun 2018 23:10:01
But so is halliday
18 Jun 2018 08:47:42
Check the pictures of them training in Spain. Neither Cardosso or Herrera are there.
17 Jun 2018 19:47:31
Hi TJBB was in Barcelona few months ago avoided the Irish bars but watched the old firm game in belush's bar got screen and few TVs would recommend chilled place not far from la rambla.
17 Jun 2018 20:44:39
Cheers Prso, will check it out. i'm in the example area so not far.
17 Jun 2018 19:33:10
We need a couple of strikers and quick who would you like to see brought in? And permanent or loan?
I would like (1) McBurnie or (2) Moult permanently.
Solanke and Sadiq on season loan.
Would get permanent striker and Sadiq in as soon as possible. And that way we can wait on Liverpool giving us a answer on Solanke.
17 Jun 2018 22:42:15
McBurnie and Moult, honestly! They're many, many miles off what we need. Have you actually watched these two guys?
18 Jun 2018 04:24:35
Moult couldn't cut it down south so he's not good enough for us.
17 Jun 2018 19:17:53
Still think we need another Centre half but don't think we are looking until either Alves or Cardoso leaves. Which one would you like to see leave and who would you replace them with?
17 Jun 2018 20:10:12
I would let Cardoso leave replace him with Caulker
18 Jun 2018 21:16:47
Think we dodged a bullet with moult. admit I wanted him at the time but the proof is in the pudding . can’t xut it diwn there in his boyhood team so no thanks Louis
17 Jun 2018 18:17:22
Afternoon all,
Will be in Barcelona on the 12 July. Anyone got any suggestions on where to watch the Rangers game. Had a quick search and there seems to be no shortage of Irish bars! Did see one called Lennox the pub, anyone been in.
17 Jun 2018 18:11:55
Bears, Now that the fixtures have been published, how many points do you think we should expect from the first 4 games?
The new trg kit looks good, totally different which I think is very important. Hope the full kit is along the same lines. I think mentally, opposition linked our old strip to a struggling, disjointed, promoted side, which gave them a mental edge. Now they will see the real Rangers and the chevrons will give them nightmares.
17 Jun 2018 19:10:58
At least 9
17 Jun 2018 19:34:09
Im expecting 12 points from our first 4 games, what about you TJBB? We have got to be positive. Last season dropping points to the lesser teams is not acceptable.
17 Jun 2018 20:14:07
12 points. Has to be . If we don't expect 12 then we are basically saying we won't be winning any league before season starts . got to believe we can win every game until proved otherwise.
17 Jun 2018 20:14:24
10 would be decent at this stage of the season. 12 would be something else as this would obviously mean we beaten the sheep and them, away!
17 Jun 2018 20:45:19
So TJBB you'd be happy dropping 2 points after 4 games?
17 Jun 2018 20:46:42
Think 12 points very achievable plus great point to rest we mean business. Would probably put us top and show were difficult to move.
17 Jun 2018 21:39:36
Not much realism on here as usual!
8 points from first 4 games would be very acceptable to me.
New tactics, new team against Aberdeen and Celtic.12 points is setting us up for a fall.
Remind me how Souness started?
17 Jun 2018 21:53:59
Hi Goalie. No, never happy to drop any points. i'm cautiously optimistic that we could challenge next season. let's just take one step at a time. Celtic, Aberdeen and Rangers all expect 12 points, we can't all be correct.
17 Jun 2018 14:33:27
How can Wallace not be fit? He returned to full training days before suspension?
17 Jun 2018 17:03:13
He's not trained since
17 Jun 2018 13:36:03
Reading a rumour about Saido Berahino. Not sure how much I fancy this one. No doubt a few seasons ago this boy was class but if its only a loan move I would rather he goes elsewhere to sort himself out.
17 Jun 2018 14:21:38
It's nonsense anyway so I wouldn't waste too much time thinking about it
17 Jun 2018 18:01:22
I would take him on loan he was a quality player couple year ago we could bring that quality back out and if you can imagine the player we would have even if it’s a loan we need more quality to challenge
17 Jun 2018 13:29:30
Have to say that our new hummel training gear and the grey hooded top our squad flew out to spain in this morning, is also nice!
17 Jun 2018 14:19:11
Agree Cooper. Do you know if Dorrans was with the squad? Big year for him think he has a lot to give just did t happen for him after coming back from injury but for me could still be a big player for us.
We have been linked with a number of wingers which side right or left is in need of another player? Is Middleton a great layer to compete with Murphy?
Cheers
17 Jun 2018 15:54:44
Dorrans flew out to Spain wi rest of squad. On a positive note that empty jersey ohalloran has left to join Melbourne city. Delighted.
17 Jun 2018 16:32:55
Surprised O’Halloran went there a bit too far away to go and watch his beloved Celtic
17 Jun 2018 12:59:11
Posters on here crying out for our youngsters to be given a chance. To say we shouldn't be bringing in young loan signings because we have our own is stupid. Do you guys want to win silverware? Players we are linked with on loan include Berahino, Solanke, Foden, Sidique etc. What young players have we got that are anywhere near that level?
17 Jun 2018 18:02:57
Agree 100% follow we will
17 Jun 2018 10:35:06
Does Wallace have a new injury or is he still recovering from the injury that kept him out last season?
Has Ryan Jack recovered from his injury?
17 Jun 2018 11:35:42
Wallace notgoing to Spain still recovering from injury
17 Jun 2018 11:41:13
I thought I seen a picture of Jack training could be wrong though mate
17 Jun 2018 12:26:30
The Wallace 'injury' is a smokescreen. Gerrard wants rid.
17 Jun 2018 12:57:17
No he does nae if he did it would b known like holt n haliday not requierd
17 Jun 2018 13:20:38
He's not injured he just isn't fully fit
17 Jun 2018 13:46:13
Yeah have to agree that club want Wallace out the club?
It’s sad it’s come to this but I don’t reckon he will play again for us!
17 Jun 2018 15:20:42
Yes, Ryan Jack is fit, he is now in full training with the rest of the first team, nice to see that the 2 young lads Middleton and Atakayi have travelled to Spain with the first team squad,
Apparently Wallace is still struggling with a groin injury and Steven Gerrard thinks it is better to stay and use the facilities and staff at the Hummel training centre to get back to fitness
17 Jun 2018 15:25:15
It wouldn't be known, the thing with SG is everything is done behind closed doors until the last minute just like it should be so if he did want rid of Wallace then we wouldn't know and anyone that says otherwise is just guessing.
17 Jun 2018 09:52:48
Just seen the teams we could get if we get passed the 1st qualification round of Europa League the likes of Braga, Besiktas, Sevilla, Leipzig and Burnley.
These teams would walk over us i'm afraid to say so let's all hope we get the luck we thoroughly deserve and avoid these teams.
17 Jun 2018 10:35:20
It’s going to be very tough if not near impossible to get to the group stages. A massive slice of luck in the 2nd round of the draw is needed. Assuming we get past the 1st round
17 Jun 2018 10:46:07
Fear No Foe if we don't get the luck of the draw we dig in deep bide our time and pounce when the time is right when we made it to Manchester we weren't exactly the favourites against Lisbon or Fiorentina and we get Lyon away anything can happen with a little hard work and confidence
17 Jun 2018 11:00:50
Let’s just take one game at a time and cut our the negatives.
It will take a bit of time for the team to gel and integrate players with SG philosophy but I have no doubt SG will fire up the players for every game. especially European games.
Please try to be positive this season and get behind the club if you are a supporter.
17 Jun 2018 11:30:59
The europa league could be a big distraction i know we need the big euro nights but i'd rather we had a right good crack at the league its going to be hard to qualify anyway
17 Jun 2018 11:51:11
How do you know these teams would walk over us? We don't even know the team Gerrard has planned for next season. I agree they'd walk over the past six seasons of Rangers teams but that's behind us and the team of next season will bear little resemblance. Time to be positive.
17 Jun 2018 14:55:18
I’m very positive about us domestically, but if we get drawin against Leipzig, Burnley and Sevilla then face it we have no chance. SG will transform our beloved team domestically and I’d dare say we will lift silverware this season
17 Jun 2018 09:20:42
Just read that Katic plays as a centre mid as well. Over 6 feet, built like a tank and mobile he is what I want in there to take on Brown. Guy plays against too many dweebs for me.
17 Jun 2018 10:47:03
He also has roughly 19 goals in 190 appearances get him in the box for all the corners
17 Jun 2018 11:43:21
If only we could beat the first man with a corner he'd have a chance
17 Jun 2018 07:13:28
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Review Of The Day 17th June 2018
17 Jun 2018 06:36:26
Hi guys,
Does anyone know if there will be televised friendlies while they are in Spain?
Cheers.
17 Jun 2018 09:33:09
I doubt any games will be televised.
17 Jun 2018 10:13:07
Hi Guys, does anyone know exactly where in Spain the training camp is? I know it is in Andalucia but where, as I will be in the area and hopefully might get a chance to see the lads in training,
17 Jun 2018 15:24:48
Jeez. I only asked a question, where in Andalucia Rangers will be training? and already some muppet has disagreed with me, what's wrong with some people?
I only wanted to go along and watch the lads training
17 Jun 2018 16:47:49
La Manga
17 Jun 2018 19:32:26
Cheers for that colster,
17 Jun 2018 21:19:08
Jet, some manks just come on and hit the disagree buttons without even reading the post. they are so in fear you have to laugh😉
18 Jun 2018 09:28:07
Colster mate, I don't think it is La Manga, that's about 5 hours drive from Malaga, more likely to be Sol Andalusi not far from Malaga, quite a few English teams have trained there, also you fly into Murcia for La Manga,
Anyway judging by the photos the lads are working hard,
17 Jun 2018 05:23:22
Anyone know the list of players going to Spain or is it everyone in the squad.
17 Jun 2018 09:09:00
I'd imagine it will be all senior players and 5/ 6 development squad ie Middleton barjo Burt etc alves at World Cup and Wallace is injured
17 Jun 2018 10:39:08
No wallace on flight
17 Jun 2018 03:44:29
With all the 'euphoria' of new signings there's one guy who slips under the radar that am ****ing buzzing about is rossiter, yes he has the Daniel prodan tag but if this guy stays fit he will be an absolute gem.
17 Jun 2018 07:57:34
Lad will struggle to stay fit but he may just need to be trained individually (Weights not games between matches Etc. ) . But I do have to say that the refs will need to protect him a bit more. Mark Allen’s tackle on him was the most blatant red you’ll ever see.
17 Jun 2018 08:06:01
Absolutely, our Director of football should have been sacked immediately! 😂😂
We know who you mean😛
17 Jun 2018 08:11:43
Auto correct mate?!?
17 Jun 2018 09:21:00
Auto correct changes Scott to Mark?
17 Jun 2018 14:05:26
yes buzzing about rossiter too think he will come good i did say last year we should let him go because of his injuries but hopefully he stays out of trouble and is in SG'S plans. also i think the young liverpool lad we have taken on loan already will be great and hopefully scott arfield not to much being said about him? can't wait for the draw on tuesday? and the friendly against bury . have we any games in spain? any behind door friendlies coming up? #lets go!
