All round very good player. There's an article posted by a statistic website that basically outlined Candeias as the guy creating all the chances for Windass and Morelos. "Looking at Candeias’ pass map from open play this season above, it is no surprise to see most of his contributions have come from that right wing. From that wing, Candeias has found James Tavernier for 10 key passes, Alfredo Morelos 9 key passes, and Josh Windass for 9 key passes. Most would agree those three are Rangers most dangerous attacking threats, so the Portuguese winger finding them so often has certainly helped lead to his success this year. Furthermore, looking at where the average location for those players were when Candieas set them up for a shot, we see all of three of them located in the “Danger Zone”. This is the area in the 18 yard box in between the 6 yard box and these shots have been found to be the most likely to be scored. When Daniel Candieas is setting up the likes of Morelos and Windass, he is finding them in the most dangerous locations on the pitch where they can score goals." https://thebackpassrule.com/2018/02/15/daniel-candeias-has-quietly-put-together-a-great-season/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudrupsleftfoot 11,025 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Shame he's 30, I fear we're seeing the best of him this season. You don't see many wingers beyond 30 capable of putting in the shift he does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All round very good player. Windass gets absolutely hounded by a large section of our support. Morelos is apparently a dud. Murphy is the only one I’d agree with getting more praise than Candeias. Not seen one negative post about him in this thread. Far from under rated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugonot 50 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Good move to extend his contract, I like his attitude, his workrate and tenacity are second to none, rarely leaves anything on the training ground or the pitch I am very happy for him and the club well done Rangers and Daniel Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibroxholm 2,280 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 I like Candeias as a player and he certainly puts in a shift. He has earned his contract extension. Do think he kind of epitomises what we are currently good and bad at. He is better against a team who is pushing out against us, has then space to use his pace and throw in an early cross for our forwards to run on to. Not nearly so effective when a team is sitting in as he lacks the close control and trickery to create in that situation. coopscracker 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cushynumber 25,178 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 In the last two old firm games, he has made the wunderkind that is Tierney look very average indeed. graeme_4, BridgeIsBlue and mearns loyal 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
