Gonzo79 13,585 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 He deserves one going on recent performances. A no nonsense defender is always good to have around. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
les186 271 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Yes a new deal which turns him into an asset, he merits it, and so he does not leave for nothing at the end of the season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dondarrion 41 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I would give him a new contract, if I'm being honest, a lot of players were having problems on that pitch last night not just him, his inexperience made it look worse. Plenty of room for improvement but plenty of time too. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMc 2,468 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I thought he was an absolute donkey and so completely out of his depth at Rangers he was going to be the ginger Scott Nisbet. I was being harsh on Nisbet there. I may have been a trifle hasty in that judgement. He definitely looked like a proper defender recently. That might be because we now have a manager who has some understanding of defending of course. On balance he's earned his spot and if he can keep it in the next few weeks then aye, he's earned a new contract offer. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little General 80 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 New contract yes he's earned one. As for starting, I'd have Cardoso playing ahead of him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 For sure he should be given a deal. Whenever Ive seen him he looks like he is getting better. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 6,118 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Of course the young man should be given a contract. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfideldo 406 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Having seen most of his games for Under 20's (although he was an overage player) I was very surprised that he made the break through to the first team. He has proved me and a lot of others wrong, but to be where we want to be I think we need better. I see parallels with Stephen McManus, having seen a lot of him at youth level I was shocked he broke in to Celtic's first team. Ultimately he turned into a competent defender, captaining Celtic and playing for Scotland. I never thought David Bates would be at Rangers beyond his current contract, but I think he has done well enough to justify a new contract within reason. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I am going to put the cat amongst the pigeons and say, I don't think he is near good enough to play in Europe or take us on to the next level. Unless he will accept a 1 year contract, I would release him. We really need better players. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
