Cerberus Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Alves Skrtel will be brilliant. He's a Portuguese Slovakian international and plays regularly against top strikers in the Italian Turkish league. He's skoosh Scottish football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverWolfe Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 P&Ber going for a tired and over used cliché.... It's only a cliche because you dafties never learn and keep making the same mistakes over and over again. £2.7m and likely a big wage for a washed up 33 year old who just wants one last pay day. Then you'll be on here in a years time surprised at how he's only managed 20 games and how no-one could've known this world class player was going to be shite in Scotland while giving it the cliche talk when Tony Adams is about sign on the dotted line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senorsoupe Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 In 2016 Sevco signed Pip Senderos, how did that go? In 2017 Sevco signed Bruno Alves, how did that go? In 2018 Sevco want to sign Martin Skrtel, how do you think that will go? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To play Devils advocate for a second, last few times I have seen Skrtel he has been pretty good and is far superior to either of the other two mentioned. Yuk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Skrtel seems very hot headed. I’d give him about 15 minutes in the opening game against Clogingston FC. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuk. Is he? Alves is better I'd say, he's just "injured" a lot. Skrtel is just another huddy who'll under estimate the league. Harry Wilson on the other hand, is an absolute star. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO (In My Opinion) Skrtel is a very very good CH, but as you correctly say, the attitude of players coming to Scotland often is what undoes them and I cant speak for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the loan connections will be where Gerrard's influence will be best seen. As much as the media and Rangers fans want to wet themselves with excitement over the prospect of "big name" former Liverpool players, getting the likes of Harry Wilson on loan will be much better for them in the short term on the pitch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skrtel in his day was a good CH but given his age and the costs involved it would be a mental signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, Skrtel has been in Turkey for three seasons now, sure you're not remembering the player he was before? Turkish league is an absolute killer of careers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love it if you sign him.I don't need a crystal ball to tell you he's not worth that sort of outlay at Rangers right now. The fact you and your fellow bears would accept the signing is the reason your "clubs holding company" will go bust again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Tunbridge Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 From a totally neutral POV (point of view) I think Skrtel would walk this league tbh. Expect when he gets bodied off Celtic. Hopefully I’m wrong and he’s a complete failure also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really depends on what his current form is like and you do appear to be getting worked up over what is tabloid speculation. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
