JR 1,480 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Gers Agree Lee DealLEE McCULLOCH is set to become Walter Smith's eighth summer signing after Rangers successfully agreed a deal with Wigan today.Walter Smith tried to capture the Scotland star in the January window but is now close to finally completing the transfer of the former Motherwell man who can play up front or on the left side of midfield.McCulloch will now meet Rangers officials to discuss personal terms and if everything goes smoothly he will join the squad on the pre-season trip to Germany.MORE ON THIS STORY LATER Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 505 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Must admit I'm don't think we should be paying £2million for the likes of McCulloch. I'd have thought there were better players for that money out there but as Sebo showed last season, that's not always the case.McCulloch will bring a bit of physical presence to the team and considering the number of times teams battered through us last season (until Weir arrived to help), bringing in him to play up front or in a wider, deeper role isn't that bad an idea.Let's wait until the end of the season before we judge his contribution.

Boab 73 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I seen it on RM latest news, went on the RFC official site, clenched my fist briefly and came to write this.I think it will be a good signing, another piece of the jigsaw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 9 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 mehi suppose he needs a chancei just dont understand the logic in signing him thoughAgreed. I have the same feeling about McC as I did (and do) about Webster - a pointless signing and I don't believe he is good enough.As soon as he signs on the dotted line though, he is a Rangers player, and gets every chance to prove me wrong That is exactly what both Thomson and Hutton have done. So Webster and McC can do the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 53,775 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I think the main reasons are because he's strong, versatile, expereinced, is a grafter and works hard for his team He adds another dimension to our squad and we have lacked that for years!

papaguy51 912 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 He's scored goals in important games in England and been a fixture in the Premiership (and Championship) for the last 4/5 years. Plus, he WANTS to play for us. He is one of us.People need to realise that we are building a squad, not a first 11. He might not be able to fit in a place naturally at the moment, but as the season goes on and people get suspended, injured and/or tired, this big squad we're building will do us good.
