Rangers hitman Martyn Waghorn tells new boss Pedro Caixinha: Play me up top and I'll get you the goals

[eejay the dj 31,964]

I'm saying all this after saying last week that Waggy will fire us into the Cup final .

Scoring just about half of those against the likes of East Stirling and Annan don't make you a good striker.

Also, a high proportion of those are penalties.

1 against Annan and 2 against Stranraer. 3 of them. The rest were against Premiership teams. Hardly half is it?

Although I agree a lot of them were penalties.

Right enough, forgot about that game.

Still 10 against Premiership teams. Think only Miller has better than that.

Won us vital points last season that helped us on the way to win the Championship.

It is possible to get important results against teams other than the taigs.

It's not, but it's been a bastard of a season and the majority of the squad have been pish.

He may thrive under a new manager who believes in him and plays him through the middle, he may not. Time will tell.

One minute you are saying he has been shite like all the other players and now your defending him by saying he has scored goals v QOS

Fucking woopee doo . Which one is it ?

Just admit . The guy is not good enough .I would think more of you instead of disagreeing the toss

This is Rangers . We need a much better goal scorer than this .

I said he's been poor but have also said that's largely due to the fact he had a bad injury and Warburton played him out of position.

You asked what vital goals he's scored for us and I named a couple. Just because he hasn't scored against the taigs or Aberdeen, which is probably all that you're interested in, doesn't mean he hasn't scored important goals.

Why are you getting your panties in a twist? It's OK to disagree my lad.

Still trying too hard  bud

[danger ranger 922]

Waghorn hasn't got the finishing that's required, also his touch is too heavy with bad control under pressure, perfect example was when he was elbowed in the face due to not controlling the ball.

[Uncle Fester 186]

He's a one in ten striker who works hard and can't be faulted for effort, but I'm sorry he's nowhere near what's required.

[Bakbear 3,586]

A lot of truth in this thread. 

Thing about waghorn is he can be great or he can be shite. Total confidence player who I think had lost his belief in the MW approach. 

MW was playing him out of position every week and it did nothing for him. He works hard, looks committed to the club and never hides when things are going bad. When we were not getting the results who was in front of the camera? 

I don't think he will be good enough in the long run but he has quality and just maybe a new manager and playing in the right position will see his good games outweigh the bad ones. 

[eskbankloyal 19,446]

He & Warburton did not see eye to eye at all this year so hopefully he can push on under Caixinha.

Ask Kenny.

And I only said it was a possibility.

28 goals last season and 15 already this season proves he isn't a poor striker.

He's a confidence player though. Picking up a bad injury at the start of this season, after only just recovering from the one he had last season, then being used sparingly by Warburton out wide didn't do him any favours.

I think a good spell consistently through the middle and he'll do the business for us.

(Tu)

I'd keep him. He's not a clinical enough scorer to be the first choice who plays every week and nets 25 goals a season but he's more than good enough be a good supporting act to somebody who is while chipping in with 10-15 a season himself.

We need to improve our squad quality and depth if we want to win the league any time soon but I think Waghorn has enough about him to be a part of that and we have far more pressing issues to worry about before we start demanding for him to be sold.
