Rambo1872 4,065 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Was impressed by Crooks tonight when he came on. Looks like he can drive forward and will hopefully get more time on the pitch from here on in. His height will benefit us as well in certain situations. I was impressed tonight with the performance but i'm keeping a level head and respecting the fact that QOS werent that good a side tonight and the weekend opposition will be alot tougher. Glad to be back to winning matches with multiple goals to inject a bit of confidence and fitness back in. The first 30 minutes were horrible and the formation came undone but we got there in the end after they accepted defeat. How did the rest of you guys (and ladies) think about Crooks 20 minutes?

Prso's headband 35,452 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I thought he played the ball well, broke up play a few times and showed a decent burst of pace a couple of times. Feet firmly on the ground though. It was only QoS and it was a good confidence booster, especially for McKay, Waghorn and Wilson. Who I think will all start on Sunday Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Hard to tell from how little time he was on the pitch. Looks a tidy enough player though, definitely adds a physical presence and looks like he might actually have a good burst of pace in him too.

ritchieshearercaldow 22,137 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Looked promising but he'll need more game time to settle in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeWallaceRFC 3,920 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 As I said in another thread, good to finally have the right kind of Crooks at Ibrox! Looked great. Strong, composed, quick on and off the ball. A really solid performance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOAT 30,449 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 He never really did much except run into the corner when he didn't need to and give the ball away. lets give him more time before blowing our load over him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueboyG 5,238 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Was ok , nothing special, shit it in 50/50 tackle just after he came on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElBufalo20 7,892 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 He had about 20 touches of a football with us 4-0 up. Wait til 5 games at least to judge him or start a thread. That's the problem these days players are praised or dismissed far too quickly Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,836 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Glad to see him get on. Just can't see where he gets into our starting 11. Rossiter is a better option. Good problem to have I guess Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cushynumber 25,178 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Looked okay. Big unit of a lad and this was the perfect time to introduce him for game time. Apart from that... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 11,484 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Almost made a really bad mistake losing the ball in our third after running nowhere with the ball but other than that he looked decent but too earlier to tell. Got hopes for him though Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegendofCoop 17,291 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Can definitely see a player in there. Looked like he's very confident with the ball. Nice wee 'lob wedge' pass around one of the attacking players coming out of the box late on. Can see that he's nowhere near match fit yet though...but that will come soon enough!

BEE 4,880 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 That was Crooks? It looked like we'd just picked some massive random guy out the crowd, because he didn't know what the fuck he was meant to be doing for the majority of the time!

Rangersfansmediawatch 1,055 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Was on the pitch for 18mins..Lets not wet our wee panties. Looked quite composed on the ball,good range of passing both short and long,Tried to pass the ball across his own penalty box and gave the ball away. Don't really see a lot of 6'4in midfielders although he said that was his best position,Crooks is supposed to be the better of the two. Needs game time against better teams to see if he cuts it.

Considering we were 4-0 up and he is just back after a long time out injured he made the right choice. Didn't shit it, but made an intelligent decision. Looks a good player. Big with good pace. Hopefully it all works out for him and us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
