The decline is true but it is more a coincidence. Candeias was a very average player. Sure he ran a lot but so did Scott Arfield when playing out wide. What was Tav's excuse then? Candeias has nothing to do with the fact Tav makes one good cross every ten. We need a proper right winger. Someone like Kanchelskis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In hindsight, I'd far rather have had his name on the team sheet at RW than Barker, Ojo, Jones or Aribo (out of position). I thought it was something like that, I’d agree tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,330 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Candeias was average at best, also the game's he would be most effective in we have done well. He isn't going to make the difference at home to the likes of Hamilton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquire8 42,336 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Also keeping a RW around just so our RB and captain can have a few better games is nonsense. Our captain should be consistent and drive the team through all games regardless of who he plays alongside. Gerrard need to make tough choices to become a successful Rangers manager and Tav is one of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanjo 26,327 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Candeias was better than Ojo and that was obvious. Average as he was, he gave us an option no one else done well in doing. An absolute priority position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 30,681 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I think people are underestimating the type of player we can sign. For the first time in ten years, we have valuable assets. Tav, Katic & Kamara are all worth a few million each and may be available this summer. We are just about to sign Hagi for 5M. A winger of similar value to Kent would not be out of the question. To say those days are long gone is thinking past tense. We have new retail, no Ashley debt, new investors on the horizon, other players with sell-on value (Morelos, Aribo, Barisic), James Bisgrove - marketing, retail sales this year will be huge and much more... Things are better than people say unless you are listening to Declan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

British_Empire 9,648 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Mixed on the Candaies debate tbh. Never really rated him, thought he was average but then again sometimes an average player, just because of the way he plays can complement others so it's sometimes not as black and white as he's good or shite. I never shed any tears when he left. Put it that way. I do think he did do a lot of dirty work, but let's be honest here, the same things Tav get's criticised for - he was still getting slaughtered for too when Candaies was here.

BookWorm 4,112 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Candeias was a good player when on his game and he defo did make Tav look better generally because of his work rate and getting up and down that right wing. It was his inconsistency that did for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEPPS BOY 73,791 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Any decent offer on Katic we should punt him. The manager clearly doesn’t rate him so what’s the point in knocking back bids. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fin8577 402 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 In my opinion we have made a good start with Holt, Foderingham, Halliday, Rossiter and Flannigan. Morelos needs to go but only for a big fee Tav i would cash in on Kamara if we could get £8mill for him then i would personally take him to them Jones needs to go Barker needs to go offers us literally nothing Murphy i like him but again won't be playing much so its time to go reinvest the wages somewhere else Stewart decent squad player but never gonna be a starter so i would get shot of him In terms of players coming in i think we need 2 good quality strikers a right winger a tough leader in the middle of the park and a good quality right back that can defend. I feel really underwhelmed by the likes of Dykes and Ferguson being linked to us and i think we need better quality players if we are to progress in europe and the league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
