Should we sign any of the Rangers players?

by FRIDDY109 » 26 Jun 2012 22:09

With reports in past week of players such as Kyle laffety, Steven Davis, Steven Naismith and Steven Whittaker saying they don't want to play for the new The Rangers Football Club I was wondering who should we try and snap up while they want to leave?
I'd personally take either Whittaker or Davis

I think that Davis would be a good signing.

I'd definitely like Sone Aluko, even though we don't need wingers. The man is incredible.

I like Davis and Naismith, both good players. Aluko would be good too, but as Rockhead said, we're pretty well covered on the wings.

Paul Gascoigne was the last one I'd heard of.

No because there's going to be a massive legal battle over contracts. Rangers think they still own them but the players don't.

A cheeky bid might be worth it though.
£200k when the newco think they may get nothing ....

That's a fair point, but i'd defo do it for a fee rather then on a free.

Alan Macgregor would be worth a punt if we didnt have 3 decent keepers at the club already.

Why don't we get a couple on free's then immediately sell them on for big fee's?

These are players who are turning their backs on their boyhood team.. Not sure many fans would want to buy players with that loyalty.

they have been loyal to their boyhood club. this is a new club that they are forced to join without being asked. and they need to do whats right for their careers as well. football is a job remember...

Id take Steven Davis in a heartbeat, Liked him when he was at Villa. He's easily good enough to be an established midtable Premiership player

Obviously see lots of Rangers up here and as for the players making themselves available, Naismith and Davies are the only two that will grace the Premier league. Mcgregor touted up here as the best goalie in britain, has made some right cluster f*** ups, maybe lower Prem team might take him, as for the rest they will do well to even get a slot in the Championship, very average players in a very poor league.

Not sure we'd want him, but think Lafferty will end up in the PL.
