Captain Hilts 12,819 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 He fancies himself as a ball winning midfielder which would seem to fit in to what Gerrard is trying to do. This sits fine with me in all honesty. Won't be on a sizeable wage and we're not stuck with him at the end of the season if he's pish.

jackrfc95 4,255 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Every player that's been signed since Gerrard arrived is under 25 and reasonably solid or absolutely huge. I'm excluding McGregor, Arfield and Murphy as I believe they were already in pipeline before he arrived. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the way I see it, if he comes in and is amazing then we'll most likely have an option on him. If he comes in and is pish we can send him back and haven't lost very much.

McGregor and Arfield were well on their way to becoming Rangers players before Gerrard was even appointed. Mark Allen said the scouting system had identified Katic and we would've no doubt pursued him this summer regardless of manager. Goldson wanted regular football after a difficult few years at Brighton which we could offer and it obviously played a big part in his decision to move here. I can buy in to the idea that Gerrard had personal knowledge of Ejaria and Sadiq and he takes a lot of credit for bringing these two promising youth prospects here. Do we know if Gerrard had personal knowledge of Coulibaly or were we scouting him anyway? Normally I'd credit any manager for the signing of a player under their reign but that changed with Pedro. JJ identified Morelos and recommended him as a signing therefore it was deemed that Pedro should be given no credit whatsoever. So if our DoF and scouting system are identifying and bringing Arfield, McGregore, and Katic here, shouldn't they get the credit? When people spoke about 'The Gerrard Effect' I was expecting a higher calibre of player coming to Scottish football that we normally could attract. All of the players we've signed so far don't fall in to that category. I don't think Rangers NEED Steven Gerrard in order to lure players here and many do the club a disservice by implying it. We're still a massive club and a global brand which is why Gerrard came here in the first place! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRW. 5,631 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I think Coulibaly will be a really decent signing, based on the videos I’ve seen of him (which show the good & bad side) He’ll be well suited to Scottish football & the style we’re playing. He has some work to do on the technical side of the game, capable of really good & pretty poor aspects on the ball. However he looks superb in the tackle, big, powerful, pacey, athletic & full of energy. shaka and BridgeIsBlue 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're still a massive club and a global brand which is why Gerrard came here in the first place! i said that to my friend last night. not one player we have signed this summer has specifically been signed due to gerrards pulling power. that will only really come into effect if or when we make a move for a household name player and their is offers from mid - bottom EPL teams or dare i say they cunts.
