RedRob72 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Davis was brilliant during his first term at Rangers, some of his European performance were absolutely outstanding. But he's lost the pace and is absolutely not what Rangers need. You already have Dorrans, Arfield, Jack. It's like all Rangers fans have forgot what they were moaning about 2 games ago - which they cannot break down teams which sit tight. Defoe and Davis won't help this. Gerrard has 1 window to save his job and he's blowing it. Your opinion, fair enough Billy, but I’m not sure how you can claim SG has blown the opportunities presented in the January transfer window until you can assess whether they’ve had an impact or not. Half a dozen games at least would only be fair in making a judgement surely? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are honestly comparing Davis to Candieas? Davis would be hopeless on a wing. 3 hours ago, Bairnardo said: Much as I appreciate the need for pettiness, surely there isnt anyone who thinks Defoe is a bad signing? It could go either way, Defoe hasn't played regularly for two years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRob72 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 What could possibly go wrong?Joey was the ‘best player’ in his own mind, at EVERY club he played for not just us, but point taken. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 It could go either way, Defoe hasn't played regularly for two years.You are right, but I see it as a very good signing. I dont think there is any way he will have regressed sufficiently not to massively improve the ****. He is a model pro IMO and a very instinctual striker. Guys like that can go on longer than most and whilst guys like Barton have shown that its not the cakewalk some of them think it is up here, we have to be honest about what they require from Defoe. They need him to score winners against shite teams they are drawing with currently. Shocked if he cant do that tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) Are honestly comparing Davis to Candieas? Davis would be hopeless on a wing. Yes I’m comparing them. At no point did I suggest Davis would play on the wing. ETA: FWIW I don’t see Candeias as a natural winger either but does a job there.

Drew Brees Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Lets face it. Defoe will be handy as f**k in this league. Ye, possibly. we felt the same about Ian Wright, who was younger and had played more games and scored more goals than Defoe in the couple of years before his move north, I remember how that worked out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, it's a tricky one. Wright was shite as were Keane and Barton. Davie Weir was class and McAuley has been ok. Lafferty is only 31 but plays like an auld man whereas McGregor is 36 and has been our second best player. The pattern is that they are mostly superannuated duds but we do get a gem now and then.

To be fair, wasn't Wright quoted around the time just before signing for Celtic, as stating that his main ambition was to be the new Des O'Connor, having just started his chat show? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve had more than our fair share, add Dublin, Juninho, Graveson, Ljungberg, Cole, Aliadiere to your list. Had high hopes for a couple but ultimately all failures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepundit Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 What other footballers have an MBE or an OBE? That's 4 at the club already so I just want to get a head start on who we might be signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
