Boab 73 Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 None of these quotes indicate him wanting to leave at all, maybe he'll say that in later articles I don't know but not like the Sun to exaggerate would it Reading between the lines would indicate him wanting to go but that's not obvious.

Yup. He's saying how disappointed he is about how it's gone so far and he's declared how much he loved PSG (a club he's supported since a boy). Again, the quotes about Walter and luck not being on his side indicate nothing about him wanting to leave. Typical rags looking to stir up a storm in a tea cup as soon as we reach top of the league and turn in our best performance of the season! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I'm getting the feeling that we're unlikely to see him play for Rangers again With Beasley and Novo on form playing hey who cares And even if Beasley and Novo weren't playing Lafferty, Naismith would still be ahead of him.

docspiderman 1,283 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 PSG didn't want him near their squad which is why they are paying all of his wages in the hope that we would buy him at the end of his year long loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef 436 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 starts different JEROME ROTHEN wants Rangers to tear up his season-long deal and end his Ibrox nightmare. The French flop has made little impact since his deadline-day loan move from Paris St Germain. The ex-international winger has played just eight times for Gers and has even been floored by a dose of swine flu. Now Rothen, 31, will plead with Gers to allow him to return to PSG in January. He said: "PSG is my club and is always in my heart. "I only left Paris because I sensed something good at Rangers with the Champions League and a new championship. But now I am so disappointed. "I do not have any problems with the coach, but luck has not been with me from my arrival in Scotland." Boss Walter Smith swooped for Rothen after he played against Rangers at the Emirates Cup in London in August. He was a stand-out in only his second game as Gers began their Champions League campaign with a 1-1 draw in Stuttgart. But his subsequent form was erratic and he was criticised for a poor showing in the 4-1 Champions League home defeat by Unirea Urziceni in October. He hasn't featured since then and has tumbled behind DaMarcus Beasley, Nacho Novo, John Fleck and Stevie Naismith in the pecking order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravelingWilBEARy 4,319 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I like Rothen - he shouldn't be out wide though (especially on the fckin right, Walter) he should be in the centre where we could use his passing ability.

The guy has talent but sadly no-one at Ibrox knows how to utilise it Might be argued that if he didn't show passing ability out wide and could not handle the attention from opponents there, how could he stand up to the hurly burly and show passing ability in central midfield. I thought he was an empty shirt looking for an easy time and not enjoying how the game is played here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bakbear 3,586 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I think his signing served its purpose.... Last day of the window, Rangers not signing a single player, when out of the hat a rabbit is pulled.... a Rothen rabbit but a Rabbit nonetheless.... There was much excitement on here, much pontification about making the best signing of the Summer, the French Beckham, outstanding delivery, a class act that will show his worth in the Champions League... we were captivated for at least a few days perhaps even weeks.... alas it has not even come close to working out on the field... perhaps it was never expected to.... but hey we watched the shiny thing :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
