I know much focus has been on Skov because of his potential price but I'm interested to hear your early impressions of our other record breaking fee forward Naderi. At almost 23 having played very little top flight football, has what you've seen given u confidence in him that he'll become the striker we need?

Said it at the start. Crazy price for him, and injury prone. Kinda runs about like a headless chicken, but has not played as a line forward, not the way he played.

He's still raw, but played well, if not great. I think he will develop. That description applies equally to Fernandez, and look at the difference between his first 5-6 games and now. We missed an experienced striker like Defoe who would have sniffed out a chance and had a clinical moment.
Naderi will be here next season, and I suspect another option will be brought in during the summer.

He's Chermiti's bag man just now, and is doing a lot of the dirty work. Like it was with Many Rangers players previously, it's way too early to judge him. I'd like to see him as the main no 9. We've created very little for him.

I like him.
I think he'll prove a good signing, more so next season when he's upped his fitness levels. I think he's better up top rather than linking play. He'll be a top player.

Both Naderi and Skov Olsen have had quiet starts to their Rangers career, and both need time to show what they are capable of. Unfortunately, patience is in very short supply.

I'm not keen on the Chermiti - Naderi combination. I can't think of any examples of playing what is effectively two target men up front, and it working. It reminds me a bit of Hateley - Duncan Ferguson, which never really happened, and the same with Sutton - Hartson.
I can't think of anywhere that it's worked. Naderi looked absolutely gubbed after about 70 minutes, and should have been replaced.

Both have done very little to deserve to play for Rangers imo.
