Gaitens08 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Should rangers scout the great players from south america, get a few good years out of them then sell them for a big fee rather than scout decent scots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes in theory, but I think the UK work permit rule means they have to be Internationalists or youths in order to get a work permit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jelle1880 225 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Not only the Eastern teams, in Belgium too there's a lot of teams that have discovered the South-American market. The thing is: These players are mostly very technical, but not adapted for Scottish football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is: These players are mostly very technical, but not adapted for Scottish football. which is why we should get them at 14-15 when we have 4-5 years to mould them before they're ready for 1st team.

Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Can't say we've been very successful with former players from South America in the past, so no, I think we should be doing more to look at talent in Canada (surely some people there actually play proper football) and the USA.

docspiderman 1,228 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 We did have a few Brazilian kids 6 or 7 years ago but nothing came of it. Do we have any real on the ground scouts anywhere? I know Ewan Chester is back reviewing dvds supplied by the small network of agents we use. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
