Arfield is a proper, tidy player. The kind of guy that we need. 

 

Anybody who says otherwise has not watched the current squad.

But we've not seen much of Arfield, have we?

And what if he is a player who is coming in to replace another, less effective player ?

Who is that then, Dorrans?

£3 million for Windass? Is Rousseau scouting for Cardiff .

No, but complaining about not getting defenders in before a midfielder, when the window isn't even open is more than just a touch premature.

 

If you were making that same statement on the last day of the window I would be wholeheartedly agreeing with you.  But clubs don't have the luxury of bringing in recruits based on hierarchical structure of needs.  They can't be saying "right, need two CB's... don't sign anyone until we get two CB's".  Response "But boss, Messi just said he wants to play for us for free".  Boss "we need CB's first so don't be signing anyone till we get those CB's".

 

Point being - you can hardly complain about the lack of defensive recruits, or the recruitment of a midfielder prior to a defender, when the window hasn't even opened.

My point is don't waste money on wages for a player we don't need, save it for some good defenders. We don't have a lot of funds as far as I know.

You do realise that the window isn't even open yet, right ?  Deary me.

We wait until the window is open then?

He was injured.

Let's hope it is not a reoccurrence of his past injury woes because he could be a very good addition to the squad.

We need some decent defenders not another aging midfielder.

We’re extremely poor in every area of the pitch. 

We must remain positive. Stevie G will come in and reverse our fortunes

Can't make payment for Rangers TV. A blessing in disguise.

The advice in Mexico to all players will be "Dinnae go to the Rangers".

It's almost worse for them in that this is meant to be them flying relatively high and when it comes down to it, they are Colin Nish and it's only going to go downhill from here.

 

At least we know we are poor but can only get better.

I would have said that last season .

I know Morelos puts a shift in but his finishing of late is diabolical. Hopefully Cumming can step up to the plate on Sunday.

Can't fault them for effort in the second half but our lack of composure and quality up front was obvious.

Well, he refuses the credit as it happened because Cummings took unwell and he had to be persuaded to put McCrorie on in midfield because he only knew of him as a defender.

Does Jimmy no watch the fitba' 

How many of these players on that performance would Gerrard want to keep?

Has Kenny Miller sanctioned this appointment .

I see that the father of our MOH, also MOH is the coach for the Celtic team - interesting.

It makes a very pleasant change to see Rangers players winning 50-50s, finding each other with passes, looking composed and comfortable on the ball.

Maybe Gerrard is bringing his piggy bank with him. 

Double Post

After last year's humbling by Progres Neanderthal I don't know if I'm that keen on another European adventure. 

I think a good manager can get a lot more out of this group of players. Finding him is the challenge.

Gave up at half time watching it. Murty plays the same formation that just plays into Roger's hands. Other teams with so called lesser players can go to Parkhead and put up a better display. If it is Gerrard let's hope he can bring some motivation, belief and organisation.

I think I am a bit blasé about this next Celtic game. That is I am not confident we will win but I don't really care if we lose. its  all up in the air as regards a new manager/coach but like most I live in hope that we start to turn the corner very soon.

I've also heard him say he loves Scotland seemed to be linked with Hearts at one time.

I stayed at the same hotel in Inverary. He was there with his family.
