Rangers are interested in a Argentinian cb,20 year old Nicholas Romero, trying to do a deal now.
16 Feb 2024 00:52:40
Sorry obviously not right now but for the summer.
16 Feb 2024 08:10:16
According to whom?
16 Feb 2024 08:57:51
Mystar, a lot of the talk is of getting a proper goalscorer, fair enough, can't argue with that. However, for me a full rejig ofour defence has been needed for a while to take us up a notch, especially in Europe.
16 Feb 2024 09:13:45
Bar we have the best defence in the country so we don’t need a full rejig at all. Can see us signing a cb to partner Goldson and a left back to replace Borna but that’s it.
16 Feb 2024 09:18:59
Agree 2 CH's and a right back who defends, anno he's been decent this year, better going forward in my opinion, good player good numbers, I'll just get my hat.
16 Feb 2024 10:52:49
Maybe we’re looking for Goldsons longer term replacement, which would make sense.
16 Feb 2024 11:17:01
David, Much rather replace Goldson than sign someone to partner him.
16 Feb 2024 12:01:15
Not sure but did we give Hutton or ricksen the same amount of stick as tav gets? I'd have tav in the same category if not better?
16 Feb 2024 12:42:51
Goldson has been a great servant to the club.
16 Feb 2024 12:56:54
For a team that needs a new back line, a new striker, a creative midfielder and a new right winger - we're doing pretty well.
16 Feb 2024 13:18:13
Anyone who thinks Tav needs replaces is absolutely deluded. If he was as good at defending as he is going forward he'd be at Real Madrid. He's a good defender and an incredible attacker. We are lucky to have him. Ricksen was overrated, often a liability, and wasn't in the same league and he's also better than Hutton was.
16 Feb 2024 13:42:39
We`ll be looking for a new left back to replace Barisic ( probably Jefte) and left sided centre back to replace Davies who I think we will look to offload . That may mean an extra year for Balogun as cover depending on his fitness. Although he can play alongside Goldson, Souttar should be his long term replacement in the right centre back position. No way we will be looking for a right back to replace Tav especially with Sterling already at the club.
16 Feb 2024 14:25:21
Davidb I have to disagree with you 100% just because we have the best defence in the league at the moment doesn’t mean we shouldn’t want better. For me that’s standing still and a problem we had after 55 and what Celtic have just now. Even if we win the league we still need better players to move the team forward. You need to keep striving for better. Have we got the best defence in europa league? I agree with you bar. We need atleast 2 CHs souttar is ok need better balogun needs replaced Davies we can do better and Goldson is not improving anymore IMO he has lost at least a yard of pace and we need better so that’s now 3 ?♂️ I think we can get another year or two out of Goldson.
We will need another left back as Borna should be away in the summer he should not get a new deal.
16 Feb 2024 14:26:54
55 ricksen got a hell of a lot of stick.
I wouldn’t replace Tav he is having his best season defensively IMO a since he has been here tho he was good during 55.
16 Feb 2024 15:20:12
yes we have the best defence in the country but look at who we are playing no one apart from the mob that has beaten us twice already tav goldson and boma have to be replaced if we want to progress in europe and beat pacific shelf, the goals we have lost this season has been down to the usual suspects.
16 Feb 2024 15:21:53
Ricksen as a right back was actually pretty poor. He got absolutely slated in his first season, couldn’t defend at all and was rightly subbed after about 25mins of his first old firm as Bobby Petta was ripping him to pieces and he was very close to being sent off. Luckily we found a new pos For him as a central mid where he excelled and got voted player of the year.
As a right back Tav is light years ahead of him. Hutton was decent but for all he was thought of as an ‘attacking fullback’ in his days his numbers were minuscule compared to Tav. It’s always the same, folk have the habit of looking back on players of the past with partially selective memories. 100% a few years after Tav has left he’ll be thought of by most as a legend (and probably rightly so).
16 Feb 2024 15:48:25
We have only shipped 13 goals all season and 3 of them are against Celtic hardly a poor defence.
16 Feb 2024 16:00:48
Rabbi - Is that the same Goldson who wanted away but nobody came in for him? He is the best at club at moment but no one in this squad should be untouchable if we see better out there!
16 Feb 2024 16:28:08
Hutton and Ricksen got a lot of stick to be fair, Ricksen never got going fully in a Rangers shirt until he moved into midfield, took Hutton a few years to develop into a marauding fullback as well.
16 Feb 2024 16:48:44
well we aren't going to spend millions on a defence when they are betting the teams we play week in week out. Rangers just won't go out and pay 10 M for a defender just so we might do well in EU. sorry it doesn't work like that. we buy players who will do well in scotland and might make some money should we sell on.
16 Feb 2024 16:56:00
It's a dereliction of duty if we aren't planning for life without tav.
Hes 33 in 6 months, he won't go forever.
16 Feb 2024 17:29:21
Saw online that we've scored 1,000 goals since Tav joined the club. He's been involved in >240 of those (scored and assists) . That's a frankly ridiculous number for anyone in anY position. Yet he still gets stick, I think I large part because he's been the captain at one of the toughest points in our history. Realistically we've only been back really competing for the title at a resource level for 2/ 3 Seasons. Anyone that wants him out is nuts.
16 Feb 2024 17:29:37
Souttar is nowhere near Goldson replacement.
16 Feb 2024 19:27:54
2 centre backs and 3 strikers needed in the summer.
16 Feb 2024 22:22:07
3 strikers? ? Why not 5.
16 Feb 2024 21:08:20
Do we have the best defence in the Europa league? ??.

17 Feb 2024 08:56:51
GDog, who's going to replace Roofe, Lammers and Silva?
17 Feb 2024 12:26:30
Think we will sign two cf in the summer Mark along with Danilo.
18 Feb 2024 14:36:21
BAR
Couldn't agree more. Sorry if heartless but Goldson gives me fear, Souter does job but not brilliant. If gers pull out stops get decent CH/ CF I'll be joyous.
