Broxi1872 187 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 David Moyes eyes future role for David Weir at Everton Weir played for Moyes at Everton before joining Rangers Manager David Moyes would welcome Rangers captain David Weir back to Everton in a coaching capacity.The 40-year-old is out of contract at Ibrox in the summer but has hinted at playing on next season. "I would love to have him back at Everton as part of my staff in the future, if he's interested," Moyes told BBC Radio Scotland. "He's a great professional and someone who all the players at Everton and Rangers should look up to." Weir, who played under Moyes at Goodison Park before his switch to Rangers in 2007, lifted the Co-operative Insurance Cup on Sunday. And the veteran defender turned in an assured display throughout a gruelling 120 minutes as Rangers beat Celtic 2-1 after extra time. "I thought last year he would probably call it a day," said Moyes, who analysed the game for BBC One Scotland's television coverage."He may only have 10 or 12 weeks to go as a player. But on that performance, he's doing great and I think Davie will know best when the time comes." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/r/rangers/9431346.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CottonRunt 1,024 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I would like him to be offered a position on our coaching staff to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseyjones 3,009 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I would like him to be offered a position on our coaching staff to be honest.His family are still living down south, so I wouldn't think he would want that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear 25 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 He's one of those players that should evolve into a good coach then manager. He's someone i'll always have my eye on to see if he does well therefore be linked to a future role at Ibrox in either the senior coaching position then manager.

FlippinEck 3,835 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 He still trains at Everton from time to time when he is away from Rangers and down visiting his family so its no surprise to see that Moyes wants him around the club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZX750 31 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Well miss him a lot when he goes, wouldn't surprise me if we went for someone like Zaliukas.Zaliukas to replace Weir is almost as pathetic as Fan Fan to replace Boumsong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mithrandir713 8 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Good for Davie, but me being A selfish person would love him to stay and pass on some of that positional awareness to our young guns! His tackling is world class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
