Do The Rangers have any good players?

[Franck Stanton]

Would welcome Lee Wallace and John Daly with open arms. Both good players who could shine for us under Stubs coaching.

[Pete]

Nobody has even mentioned David Templeton, another one who chose a few pounds over personal development.

They've all made their bed and they'll have to lie in it.

He's definitely a good player, but he's consistent by his inconsistency. It was the same story at Hearts, so in his case it's not just the Sevco factor. Good player though, I wouldn't mind him playing for Hibs at all, but can't really see it happening for some reason (probably wages).

I think Wallace has gone backwards in his career, as has been stated, by taking the money and signing for Rangers. You can understand the Boyd's, Miller's and McCullough's of this world, with their veteran status, going out to grass in the lower leagues for the king's shilling, but the likes of Wallace, Black and Deano have possibly wrecked their careers.

That said, Wallace, with the proper coaching and training, with some big games under his belt playing at a proper club, could probably resurrect. He was the only Hun who showed a modicum of threat and enterprise down that left hand side, at least until the third goal. Then he concentrated on avoiding humiliation, like the rest of the Hun.

Wallace is just another mercenary with thuggish tendencies. Could have been a decent player with the right coaching and losing a couple of chips off his shoulders.

[blackpoolhibs]

We do like to get a wee bit ahead of ourselves on here at times. Of course they must have some decent players, they are ahead of us, the best Hibs team in years.

[FRes Hibbie]

Lee Wallace is a waster. Should be 1st choice left-back for Scotland at this stage of his career but, as others have said, he chased the short-term buck at the huns. No matter what he does now he'll not get ahead of Andy Robertson who's done exactly what Wallace should've.

[basehibby]

Nicky Law has usually looked a good player for them - he was a bit invisible for them on sat though but that could be considered preferable to standing out for being gash as could be said for some of his team mates

Player coach? Has he any coaching experience? Which coach would he be replacing?
I think the coaches we have just brought in in the summer have done ok so far.

I asked similar questions the other day when someone else touted him for a coaching role. Not ha an answer as far as I know.

Does he even have his badges? If he's showing promise as a coach why haven't Rangers given him a coaching role? Or have they?

I always thought Wallace was a good player, and not just because he's a Hibs fan either. But his game has deteriorated since he went to Sevco. The same could be said of McGregor, another Hibs fan.

Wallace has all the physical attributes but you have to question the mentality of someone who knowingly sacrificed his scotland career and any chance of success at club level.

It's not like he is helping the club either. The guys milking rangers for huge salaries are about to bankrupt the club for a second time.

Nicky Law is the only one from Saturday who would have made it to the Hibs squad....

Saturday was a very bad day at the office for Rangers but they still have a number of very good players.

Personally I would take;

Wallace
McGregor
Law
Shiels
Boyd (when fit and motivated)
Miller (I dont think he is past it, he is just starved of service)
Clark
Daly (Pay as you play deal)

Wallace, McGregor and Boyd/Miller would walk into our side at the moment imo.

no danger would any of thoes 4 as it currently stands would walk in to our side. wallace - would/could you drop stevenson. Mcgregor - who would you drop gray hanlon or fontain? boyd/miller - again who would you drop malonga or a young up and comming striker who has scored 2 in 2 and 7 for the season.

that said with being short upfront i would take miller as cover/rotation and help the young guys like handling, cummings, allan

Personally speaking I would replace Stevenson with Wallace, Fontaine with McGregor and Cummings with Miller just now.

I don't think there is any debate that Wallace is a better player than Stevenson and while Fontaine has been good in recent weeks I think McGregor is a better player and someone we could build a defence around.

Cummings is hot and cold this season and IMO is not ready to play first team football week-in, week-out but is doing so just now out of necessity.

I think everyone gets a touch misty-eyed about McGregor growing up in Leith as a Hibbie, thus meaning he is exactly what we need. Same has repeatedly been the case regarding Danny Swanson. He is 30 next year, so i'd sooner build a defence round others. As a free agent in the summer, he could have shown intentions to make a deal with Hibs rather chase the Hun buck. Alas, he was at the other end on Saturday taking a spanking.

A good, guy speaks well about his journey in the game, but I think theres far better out there, including a couple already playing for us.

Lewis Stevenson is much, much better than the empty husk of a footballer that currently is Lee Wallace. Wallace sacrificed his opportunity to have a good career for a quick payday at Ibrox, fair enough that was his decision.

For our first two goals, he's let his opposite number have the time to take a touch, set himself and then shoot unopposed, and then for the second he, along with 2 team mates, gets drawn to the ball incredibly easily by Malonga while Gray runs into the box and Allan sits off and waits to make the cross.

Lee Wallace, the hearts player, was a quality left back with the world at his feet. Lee Wallace, the rangers player, is a pale shadow of the player he used to be.

[emerald green]

From what I saw on Saturday, they are all s****. Not one of them would get a game in the current Hibs team. One or two maybe as squad players.

Lets stop making out they are better than they really are. If they are, they wouldn't have been humiliated by Hibs at the weekend.

Couldn't agree more. His football has suffered big time.

His game is shot.

[rosco-hibee]

Based on Saturdays performance, the only player I'd even think of enquiring about is Nicky Law, was the only player looking even remotely close to making something happen against us.

i couldn't believe how off the pace the likes of Wallace, Miller, Boyd et al were. Lewis had deano in his pocket when he came on.

Templeton is a decent winger, but there must be a reason he doesn't get a game, injury or otherwise.

[scoopyboy]

In my opinion Rangers biggest problem is that their players aren't fit, I thought that was glaringly obvious on Saturday.

If they get fit under McDowall or if somebody else comes in then they might improve.

If they are as bad as a lot of people on here are making out why are we still behind them?

IIRC in games at Ibrox they have scored four against Dumbarton and QOTS and took six off Raith.

In our home games against the same three teams we have scored zip, zip and one.

We still have a bit to go.

[brianmc]

As the old gag goes they've got some players that look good on paper but sadly we play on grass...
As for Nicky Law? Even the zombie fans rate his performance against us as worse than Black's! *going by the bampottery I've read on rangers media etc Safe to say those sites don't have swear filters-some of their comments are borderline criminal (I'd imagine)

[NOLA]

Nicky Law, think hes a good player.

I would take law, bell, aird, daly and wallace. Not guaranteed starters.

Wouldn't touch boyd or miller with barge pole.

Just read yesterday's news of Lewis MacLeod moving to Brentford.

That's them now lost their most valuable player for less than 1 million.


To Brentford!!

Agree totally with that. We have done well in the bigger games but struggled against teams that sit in. Rangers squad has loads of goals in it and will get better than they were at ER.

Boyd wouldn't get in my kids team. A useless lump of a player. McGregor is nowhere near as good as any of our defenders. Wallace is miles out of form,condition,training.
