And that's with only remembering one player getting past him in every game he played for us last season. Guy is a brick wall, just not very good on the ball at all.

'on a side note, £8 million for Worrall? Then how much is Bates really worth?' And you come out with £2m? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blue_Devil 185 Posted October 12, 2018 In the game that Bates missed, Hamburg got turned over 6-0. I am not saying that that is all down to Bates, but he seems to be a positive influence on the team and usually gets one of the higher ratings in reviews of Hamburg games.

DariuszAdamczuk 548 Posted October 12, 2018 Let’s be honest the boy was an absolute bomb scare and an accident waiting to happen who looked half decent in amongst a plethora of horrendous defenders we had last season Couldn’t lace Goldson, Katic, McAuley or even Worrall’s boots 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's cause I said I don't think Worrall is worth anywhere near £8m. Are you fucking brain dead or something? Stop stalking me ya fucked up troll. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AyrshireBlue 384 Posted October 12, 2018 He's done well so far. The slower pace of game no doubt helps.. Smashed the mouthy captain of St Pauli twice and the fans now love him.. If he learns more of the game whilst in Germany he may well become a decent no frills centre half. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueKnight87 2,123 Posted October 12, 2018 He looked good for us but let's be honest he was the best of a bad bunch last season. If he stayed he would be backup to Katic and Goldson who are far ahead of him in ability. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bougherra cost us £3m and out of those three, I know who I'd rather have in our team. Worrall is significantly better than Bougherra. Bougherra is 36 years old and is retired.

bordersbear 912 Posted October 12, 2018 4 hours ago, jackrfc95 said: He was told he wouldn't be first choice which is absolutely correct. If we had been going into this season with Bates as one of our main centre halves people wouldn't of been happy. They wouldn't "have" been happy either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drum 158 Posted October 12, 2018 Thought Bates was a decent CB but we'll never know whether he would have sunk or swam in SG's Rangers. I am in no doubt SG would still have signed Katic and Goldson had Bates stayed. Whether Worrall would be here is debatable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TMB 8,727 Posted October 12, 2018 5 hours ago, Redwhiteandblue said: Did we offer him a contract? If we did, was it the sort of contract you would expect for a first team Rangers player? He was offered a contract. It was nowhere near the money that German outfit threw at him. Besides, he was vastly overrated and so is McCrorie. We have better players than those two in our squad now.

plumbGER 17,738 Posted October 12, 2018 We of some good defenders at the club just now and we of until the end of the season to assess Worrall to see if he is worth pursuing. We of seen him make a few mistakes already so hopefully the management of being working to sort his defensive lapses out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smile 17,806 Posted October 12, 2018 Bates is a good defender and will improve Worrall may get better but he's slow cumbersome and the Hearts players got past him any time he tried. We don't have bates now we have Worrall so we will have to hope he improves or Katic gets fit again as he's our best defender. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoatbridgeBear 4,327 Posted October 12, 2018 He was rank rotten bar the odd decent display and 1 cracking display at the hellhole. Boyd outpaced him and he resorted to hoofing it up the park every single time he had it. German 2nd division fucking hell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
