Ryan Jack - 383 league appearances over 12 seasons. Career average - 32 games. Average with Rangers - 26 games
Filip Helander - 240 league appearances over 12 seasons. Career average - 20 games. Average with Rangers - 18 games
Kemar Roofe - 280 league appearances over 11 seasons. Career average - 25 games. Average with Rangers - 28 games
Connor Goldson - 359 league appearances over 12 seasons. Career average - 30 games. Average with Rangers - 48 games
John Souttar - 223 league appearances over 10 seasons. Career average - 22 games. Average with Hearts - 21 games.
I've put Jack in as a reference point as we can be too quick to judge him when others have similar stats ( though most of Jack's injury concerns have been recently ) .
You can see the difference in someone like Goldson. Over his heart issues and one of our most consistent starters.
We paid £3.5 million for Helander. Excellent defender. But. Is an average of 18 games a season value for money?
We reportedly paid £4.5 million for Roofe. 1 in 2 goal scorer for Rangers. But again fitness has been an issue.
Can Rangers afford to take a gamble on Souttar?
In my view, not as a first choice CH.
Though he fills other criteria. Decent player. Cheap. Young.
We need A. N. Other with Goldson still seemingly running down his contract, Helander's injury woes and Balogun in his early 30's and contract up in the summer.
In the 55 Title winning season, our top performers all played over 40 games in all competitions.
Goldson - 56 games
Kent - 52 games
Kamara - 51 games
Barisic - 50 games
Davis - 49 games
Tav - 46 games
Hagi - 45 games
Arfield - 45 games
Morelos - 44 games
McGregor - 42 games
Aribo - 42 games
Gio has already shown he likes consistency in team selection.
Would you bet on Souttar reaching those figures?

Nope.

13 Jan 2022 16:12:01
John Souter has missed 2 games from a minor knock since he came back from his last major injury in March. So yes i will take a risk and say yes he can do it.

13 Jan 2022 16:12:02
He's a backup at best, if he's seen as a 1st 11 player then Rangers are going backwards.

13 Jan 2022 16:27:35
We've not even officially signed john souttar yet and some already looking for snow when there's none at all atm🤔He's over his 2 bad achilies injuries as he's played for hearts constantly of late! Give it a rest and let's wait and see before saying this and that's going to happen because he's had 2 bad injuries in the past🤔Look on the plus side for a change and what if he's now had his bad luck of injuries🤔The good thing i take out of souttar's injuries were they were unfortunate bad ones but he seems to not be injured with the small niggling injuries which can over a period of time be much worse🤔If we sign him get behind him and stop putting the negative dampers out there continually about the guy!

13 Jan 2022 16:57:13
Agree sir walter, low risk signing imo, low fee to be paid if we sign him, no matter who we sign it's a risk if they'll settle, at least souttar knows the spl well and settling in shouldn't be a problem,

13 Jan 2022 17:00:58
Hes also a 1 in 2 goal scorer for his national team .

13 Jan 2022 17:31:49
It's no surprise that Souttar has has injury problems in the past considering he's been playing top level football for the last 9 years and being only 25 years old. He was pushing himself to the max week in week out whilst he was still growing, injuries were inevitable.

I'm hopeful that physically he's done all the growing he's going to do and his injury woes are a thing of the past.

One sure thing is that I will grow if he batters a header past Hart in a Rangers top! 🤣🤯.

13 Jan 2022 17:33:57
SirWalter, your saying he hasn't signed yet but last week you said he's signed a pre contract. Which is it to be?

13 Jan 2022 17:49:47
You can't go with stats, remember Rosenthal, cost a few million when arrived at the club, first game came on as sub against St Johnstone got injured out for a couple of seasons, Goldson heart problem very rarely misses a game.

13 Jan 2022 18:38:42
Mr ph I look for a player to average 38 games a season across all competitions.

13 Jan 2022 19:40:01
Everyone allowed an opinion coops.

13 Jan 2022 19:55:49
Hendo, I remember being at a Rangers v Killie game at Rugby Park when Rosenthal took a severe injury.

13 Jan 2022 20:01:23
Baxterboy get your facts correct before spouting false statements my friend. I didn't say john souttar had signed for rangers on a pre contract last week🤔I said i was told he will sign a pre contract with rangers thus choosing us over English championship clubs, ok🤔I was told we would hear this news this midweek so of course the announcement is late but i'm told is definitely coming once everything is in place🤔Hope that clears that up for you Baxterboy🤔Remember you said souttar wouldn't be coming to rangers so we'll not be long in finding out which one of us is correct pal😁.

13 Jan 2022 20:55:18
I think you need to read your posts again my friend. You definitely said " Souter has signed a pre contract so get used to it" were your words. You also said Lyndon Dykes was signing for Rangers. My friend!

13 Jan 2022 20:56:13
Walter if your claiming u never said souttar had signed pre contract last WK u cannot be correct in any situation. If u never said it u cannot be correct. Just saying all about opinions but own what u say right or wrong. 💙.

13 Jan 2022 21:09:49
Oh dear Broxi bear, if you read my posts correctly then you'll realise that I'm not denying I said Souter isn't signing. In fact I'm sticking with what I said, Souter is not signing for Rangers.

13 Jan 2022 21:11:33
Broxibear, forget my last post, I thought that was intended for me instead of Walter. Apologies.

13 Jan 2022 22:32:33
Baxterboy, i thought it was St Johnston as it might of even been his debut, but if you were there then stand corrected.

13 Jan 2022 22:36:10
Baxterboy just checked that and it was St Johnston
He made just 20 more appearances after his injury in a 2-0 win over St Johnstone before leaving in 2002.Yea.

13 Jan 2022 22:48:18
Baxter I was reading your post with a very confused face😂 Then I seen your second post mate. Alls good I'm not sure regarding souttar will back him all the way if he signs tho. A new pal for jack, Kemar and big fil 😆😂 good old sarcasm.

13 Jan 2022 23:10:38
Baxterboy i'm sure the Ed will be able to say whether i said last week regarding john souttar which you're saying or not my friend🤔It's john souttar we're talking about here not lyndon dykes 🤔For the record i was told rangers would be signing dykes and it was wrong. We all put on here what we hear or are told by various sources but we all get things wrong my friend 👀.

14 Jan 2022 00:31:38
We do all get things wrong, not sure why some people always go on about sources tho pal 🤔. Constantly asking john if its a source u are sources with too, but turns out the source was at school with your wife 🤔
Then pure denial of the Ginger Ramos, along with many other things👌
I'm a firm believer in the boy who cried wolf. Therefore find it hard to believe anything 👌
When some people get caught out they just pretend they are catching fish 🤔😂.

14 Jan 2022 01:10:06
Sirwalter, no worries at all. I respect your input and enjoy your posts. I certainly don't mean any harm to you sir.

14 Jan 2022 01:13:14
Hendo, regarding Rosenthal, I'm pretty sure your right but he definitely pulled up at Rugby Park. Probably the same issue.
