Heard this morning that Caixinha has a player in mind he wants to sign and that he will be our new captain next season. Expecting name to be in the papers by next week

I do t think any new player should just walk in and be captain of Rangers first they should prove them self too be a role model too players on the park and young players at auchinhowie and show there full commitment too the club

If that's true it's likely to be the centre half Ghana international Rashid Sumaila who will most likely be 1 of the 1st players to arrive at the club. He's out of contract worked under Caixinha twice and is his godson.
Maybe he will be the link between the coach and the manager a good Captain should be.
Yeah a modern day captain should be good with media and set a good example for the younger players but to me I prefer a proper bread and butter Centre Half in that role like Gough and Butcher when I was a young Bluenose

Happened with Butcher, though he had the stature.

The only caveat to the above statement would be if the new captain is already an established captain. For example, If we brought in say a Darren Fletcher. I'd presume he would and should get the nod.

Whoever we sign i think it is possible that we will not sign any spfl players maybe a player from Aberdeen but due to finances a player would need to be on a free as the sheeps valuations will be to high. Think Ped will have had a list in his pocket beforr he arrived and unless he's seen someone here since that he likes I'll be surprised

Think Miller has all the attributes to be Captain and prob his last Season. Only thing is he may not start or last the entire match not sure about the Ghanian lad as Captain his English must be very good and it may be a bit unwise him being Caixinha's god son could cause problems?

Wallace has the potential to be a solid left back but do not yhink he's Captain material. Also do not think we are in a position to sell Wallace not unless a good bid comes in its prob too early for Beerman to play every week but not 100% sure on this as it could be the making of them tough one

Very few foreign coaching regimes place the same importance on the captaincy as we British do.

TGR, doubt we'd make a 24 year-old who knows nothing about our club or captain.

First of all I reckon that we might just have more funds available for transfer fees than we have been assuming. Certainly, if Rodgers is being given £15 across the City as is being rumoured then we will need a decent amount of funding. Perhaps some of the funds so desperately required could come from the sale of McKay, MOH, Waghorn and Garner. The latter two are still likely to have interest from England as will McKay and there should be interest in MOH even in Scotland.

So assuming that we do have some quality funds for investment then I would love to see some of this funds used to bring in a quality player that is already captain of his current club and is a leader. Wallace has shown loyalty but he is never a leader and lacks all the on the field traits that a leader should have.

It will be an interesting summer and I have to believe that we will see four or five new players arrive with the same number leaving.

I feel a captain needs to be a cb or mf. seeing everything, maybe pulling the strings and but definitely being heard. Whilst miller is a great inspiration and motivator you can only do so much from up top. He drops deep enough as it is lol.

Why is beerman not ready to hold down the position if your good enough your old enough in my opinion if he plays as well this week if selected as he has done in the 2 previous games I'll be hoping he plays the semi final against Celtic

see if rodgers wants 20 -25 million he will get it believe me they will sell dembelle and he will get whatever he is sold for and lawell and their board will just bank the champions league money.

rangers need a captain we havent got one and if king kenny does stay next season we will need to use him as a sub i would think, i would however give him the armband for the remainder of this season

I'll get shot down for this but I'd give Danny Wilson the captains armband. He done well with it at hearts and has done great playing alongside Bates so it shows that the extra responsibility might raise his game.

Stu, I for one agree that Wilson should be the man to take the armband
