The signing of Joe Aribo shows how far we have come in the past few years. The thought of signing a player being linked with Arsenal and Man City just a few months back would have been laughable in seasons gone by.
We were fighting teams from the lower reaches of the Championship and Division 1 for players not too long ago. Now we are attracting not just experienced players like Defoe and Davis but young and upcoming guys with bags of potential. One more centre half and a back up striker and I really believe we have the squad capable of giving it a real go this season.

Del2807 You are bang on. I have been banging on about 1 more CB and one more striker and we will be there. Just a wee note to the glass half empty brigade. PLEASE REFILL YOUR GLASS. STEVIE G KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING.
26 Jun 2019 13:19:59
I don't mind him going but would like a fee and sell on clause inserted in any deal cause i think the boy will come good.
24 Jun 2019 18:08:56
The manager saying he is not going anywhere. Good man.
24 Jun 2019 22:28:29
Has aribo failed medical.
24 Jun 2019 23:31:17
6 counties we won't find out till tomorrow the earliest I expect he will have passed it with flying colours.
25 Jun 2019 05:06:49
6counties do you want him to fail it?
25 Jun 2019 09:34:58
That’s Rossiter gone good luck wee man when you go new club.
25 Jun 2019 11:14:57
I liked rossiter but maybe 1 injury too many, plus we are well covered in that dept.
As for Aribo, the medical results are not out so may need a second scan like Turnbull, but I expect it will be fine. They may well parade him in the Portugal camp (Faro)
24 Jun 2019 16:29:30
Was on sky sports SG has confirmed Aribo currently having his medical. Barring any late issues welcome to the Famous.
24 Jun 2019 17:44:56
Until medical is passed I ain’t counting any chickens. The pic of Turnbull with top on could come back to haunt Celtic as rumour has it there is a small issue with Turnbull medical. Here’s hoping Aribo passes with flying colours and has the scarf above his head this evening.
24 Jun 2019 18:24:08
Aye definitely agree but the turnbull one is weird ud have expected him announced but there's rumours on twitter that there was a knee issue that popped up but tbh who actually gives a toss not our player n on a better note gerrard ain't interested on the derby job.
24 Jun 2019 18:33:11
Got to agree, the site of MoJo signing for us will haunt them to their graves!
24 Jun 2019 19:01:10
Hopefully rangers put in a percentage of any transfer for origo.
25 Jun 2019 10:08:04
I never realised we were already selling Aribo.
24 Jun 2019 14:35:30
Most major papers reporting Derby to offer Gerrard management job with '8m bonus' for achieving promotion and a 2.5m salary.
If true, could be a disaster for us tbh. Considering the volume of players he's brought in.
24 Jun 2019 14:49:52
Can’t see him leaving. He already rejected them the first time.
24 Jun 2019 14:52:14
Seen reports of it to but the players are signing to play for stevie and i don't think he would have went for aribo edmunsston etc if he knew derby were aftr him he prob waited an took them to derby.
24 Jun 2019 15:02:38
They'd also need to offer Rangers a fee to release him from his current contract which I believe ties him to the club until 2022. Money talks bit I'm sure Gerrard sees us as a better option than Derby.
24 Jun 2019 15:07:03
Depends if he’s tempted by money or as he has already said he wants to stay here and kick on from last season I’m sure he will get plenty of other offers in years to come don’t think he feels the time is right yet.
24 Jun 2019 15:07:37
most likely celtic friendly media propaganda.
24 Jun 2019 15:15:13
It’s fine Rafa can replace him .
24 Jun 2019 15:16:57
No surprise other clubs are wanting him but I'd be astonished, as well as absolutely gutted if he went now. Clearly loves the job he's in and has the chance to make a name for himself. One bad season in the championship, which is so tough to get out of, and his reputation is shattered.
Money ultimately talks, and eventually he'll move south for a big salary, but surely building his reputation and learning his trade counts more at the moment. These big money offers will only get bigger if he does well. He know it, and in the future, we'll accept it. Not now though.
24 Jun 2019 15:32:13
I'd like to think that Steven Gerrard has some integrity and is a man of his word and stays to become legend at rangers. I don't think money will sway him as being honest derby are no where near the size of rangers and he says he wants to he the man who brings glory back to the famous Glasgow rangers.
24 Jun 2019 15:47:50
gerrard is a very wealthy person and will be earning a good salary with add ons at Ibrox. He must know that if he wins the league for Rangers that his stock will increase and he will move a step nearer the Liverpool Job when the time comes. Why would he risk all of that to go to Derby where gaining promotion won't be easy!
24 Jun 2019 16:11:18
He's going nowhere, it's media propaganda trying to unsettle us at Ibrox and sowing doubt into the minds of potential signings. We've been on the front foot for a few months now, proactive instead of hanging on to their tails, and they don't like it. I thought most fans would realise that right away and not give these ridiculous fantasies any credence at all.
24 Jun 2019 16:52:32
Its all bull he won't be going nowhere.
24 Jun 2019 17:18:54
Gerrard is a loyal ambitious person and Manager. He could have went to Chelsea to win title as a player but stayed loyal to his club.
As a Manager there’s NO WAY he would go to Derby in favour of us at this stage.
A BPL side like Newcastle could potentially sway him and even then I’m not so sure, but I genuinely don’t think he would leave in favour of ENG Championship club.
Maybe further down the line if he can’t achieve success here but he and we believe he can.
He realises the magnitude of the job and the World wide fan base, wants to experience European nights and title races so he is ready to take over at Liverpool in a few seasons.
24 Jun 2019 17:28:14
I think Gerrard will stay and learn his trade here, it’s and excellent platform for his to become the future Liverpool manager. He’s not in it for the money he’s here to learn how to manage a huge club.
24 Jun 2019 17:59:06
got to remember guys steve g is not short of a coin so i can't see the wages at derby being a big issue, think he will stay loyal to the cause.
24 Jun 2019 18:27:03
Gerrards been interviewd and stated he's aware of there interest but he's nit interested he's honourd to be our manager and is focused and commited remember him knockin back a big money move to chelsea he ain't driven by money he's a proper dyed in the wool blue nose now he's here for 55.
