Chopra for 5 million!! Are they mad!! I hope Sunderland go down but I bet Keane is a scary bassa to play for and he will get the best out of players and I can see them doing ok. The first game on Sky is Sunderland v Spurs. First time il be routing for Spurs. But its actually good having interest in a team whether you want them to win or lose, its better than not giving a shite like when Birmingham play Bolton - Sky always seem to televise games like that and they make for shocking viewing.

I remember his Scotland debut a few years ago and he played an absolute stormer upfront. It was at Hampden and we won 1-0 but I cant remember who it was. Since then he has definatly been one of Scotlands better players IMO. He "should" cruise the SPL and I can see him getting a run upfront a lot as Beasley will play left. He is strong and should score a good few. We are crying out for midfielders to get goals and McCulloch should get double figures.

Hertz are even more crazy to knock it back
-
Im happy with this signing and would think he will be a first teamer. If he was a foreigner the transfer fee wouldnt get a mention. He has always done a good job for Scotland when ive watched him and he has held his own no problem in the premiership. Welcome to the Gers Lee

I agree with going in solid for 50/50s but i dont think they should be going into team mates in training the same as they would in the SPL match. They should leave themselves another gear for real matches. Fergusons words were you should get wired into your team mates and give your best mate a kick up in the air - thats not training, thats rugby. That is also once of the things wrong with the scottish mentality in the game these days - I bet if the Spaniards, French, Germans and Italians would be in shock about that.

Never heard of this dude. The new owner has been brought back to Thailand to faces tax charges. He could end up in jail for 10 years. That would send Man City all pair shaped and would be funny to see Eriksson's face.
-
"Darchey puts balls in your hands and stuff and makes them disappear" But disagree about his training routine. It cant be good to get "wired" into your team mates (whatever wired means) and give them a good kick in the air. There is being competitive and being dirty. Have to say though, BF is looking trim and fit in those pictures.

Laudrup is what 37? And Albertz was still playing last season and just left a club. Sheringham and Brewster are still playing at 40 so they could probably still play depending on injuries. But they should still be signed up as part of the coaching / scouting set up.
-
I've highlighted a bit in bold. We may have signed 7 players but does anyone else agree with me that we have only really signed 3 potential first teamers? Obviously the 3 im talking about are Darcheville, Cuellar and Beasley, but the rest are going to be squad players. Now there isnt anything wrong with this as we need fine back up and good numbers but I still think we are crying out for at least 2 more players who will go straight into the first team. Maybe Gow will have a bit more to play as he is a vertisle player who can play in behind the strikers and I have a good feeling about him. But if we arent buying guys who are first pick then we arent improving IMO and we cant go into another season of being average after picking up no silverware in the last 2 seasons. Im not having a dig at Smith's buys here Im just saying in the up coming weeks we still need to buy 2 players who can make a difference.

Great crowd BTW, it looks more than the 30,000 counted. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHnymOMP8u4&NR=1

Sounds like we should be signing Laudrup up for a year. He could probably do a job for us coming off the bench at games. No Gazza on show!!
-
Yeah totally agree Pete, he practically tackles Hemdani for the ball in our own half. Id like to see Ferguson barely cross into his own half and try to be more attacking but the more a player matures he tends to go towards his own box. Its either that he just sits infront of the back 4 and we do let Buffel try and come good.
-
The talent in that team was scary. Would id do for some of the players shown to be back: Albertz, De Boer, Gio, Mols, Numan, Ferguson, Tugay, Klos etc. I actually forgot De Boer played in the same team as them, I thought he came just at same time as Caniggia and Nerlinger just as DA sold off our great midfield.
-
Reading this, Im just realising Whittaker is a right back and not right midfield. Thats worse if we use 1.8 million for a position where we have a player on the top of his game - Hutton. It may make Hutton determined to keep his place but we should be putting that money into another position and taking he likes of Danny Mills on a free contract for RB cover.
-
If Boyd was worth 3 million plus then we should bite the hand off anyone who would make an offer. If he gets fitter and loses a pound or 8 then id be happy with him as he would be more mobile to give more to the team.
-
Jee Whizz! I wanted a new keeper but not him, he is a nightmare.
-
As someone said not long ago, we'd be better of with Roy Walker (Here's another cataphrase). West Ham did the right thing in getting rid of him, but only to replace him with Richard Wright who is a keeper imposter
-
But as Ive said on many occassions the standard of player in Scotland has dropped dramatically in the last 2 decades. We signed Goram in 1991. Also the other point ive said on many occassions is its ok taking 1 or 2 of the better SPL players but not fill a team with them. This isnt a personal attack on Whittaker as I dont know much about him but I just dont see Rangers progressing with a team including Naismith, Boyd, Whittaker, Thomson, Gow, Broadfoot, Murray etc. It should be us breeding better youngsters with Murray Park.
-
1.8 million Id rather go for someone out of the SPL. Players like this wont improve us. We should have a better set of players than Hibs. If a Hibs player is coming to us and getting in the first team than says we are average.
-
Good signing this IMO. A young highly rated centre half. If Webster comes good then we could have a good partnership on the making. BTW, how do you pronouce his name? Is it Kewlar? or is it Kooler?
-
No probs thats 2 pints you owe me
-
Your right Sebo doesnt deserve ANOTHER chance, he deserves a first chance
-
Nope, I cant see where I mentioned that. I said maybe keep Sionko for the right until we get a replacement
-
Holy shit, i never knew they were back already. So Sionko, Buffel and Sebo are all training. Im pretty pleased they are stil there, i think they all deserve another chance but in Sebo's case he deserves his first chance . We are short on the right so its best keeping Sionko there until we get a replacement.
