I think it's more if you look at our team we have a really small player pool he is our player and should start before retirees like Kranjcar and Pena who still seems to not be fit and it's January. Even when not starting he could improve our bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gsa 3,906 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I'm possibly one of his harsher critics but I can accept he's relatively tidy on the ball. He is however one of the weakest and slowest professional players I've ever seen. Added to that he lacks any fight or fortitude and hits the deck every 10 mins feigning injury.

LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Carlos Pena has scored 5 goals in his first 14 games for us. The same amount of goals Halliday managed in 42 appearances for us last season. Yet this thread is full of people claiming Halliday would be a better option Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIRB_72 3,987 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Absence makes the heart grow fonder comes to mind. The guy loves the club and lived the dream and good on him but he's not a very good player and the only reason he is still on the books is because he was given a stupid lengthy contract.

I don't rate Niko for us but to put Halliday anywhere near his ability is a joke in itself. Andy was fucking useless for us last year and caused as many goals as he created. Pena is better than Halliday aswell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should sell the other two for whatever we can get, both have proven to be shite players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully as the standard of player gets better then players like Halliday and Holt can come in when required and show up a bit better I also think that Murty’s strength lies in his player management skills, regardless of Haliday’s previous endeavours in a Rangers shirt he is no doubt committed and will do his upmost for the team. I genuinely hope he progresses through Murty’s guidance and will deliver the kind of performances we as fellow supporters would hope to give in his position. Good luck...

I'd get rid of Kranjcar and Halliday before id get rid of Pena. Im not a big fan of Pena but he shows a lot more for us than those other two do. Obviously there's only so far we can get with the lack of money we currently have but Andy Halliday will bring absolutely nothing to us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were putting a lot of balls in the box during that second half and Pena's good at getting on the end of those. He's given us a good goals return this season.

James Rolle 514 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Worth seeing how Halliday performs in what is a different team and style of play since he left. Jury is out for me but provides another option in midefield, and doesn’t cost us anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
