hugh dallas 29 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I thought he was pretty poor on Saturday and maybe it was because his mind is elsewhere. I know we've hardly got a lot of options but whittaker played some of his best games at centre half last season and papac and mcculloch could do a job aswell.

markybear 136 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 It'd be financial suicide not to play him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.E.C. 18,959 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Yes. Best defender to choose from. Simple as that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougieRFC 36 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Honestly, no. Move Papac or Wallace into the centre, a player who's mind is not in the game is useless, he won't be commiting to challenged %100 either, as he won't risk an injury and the potential collapse of his move to Qatar Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugh dallas 29 Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 I would play him aswell but was having an argument with one of my mates about it and I could see where he was coming from. Boughy probably doesn't give a fuck whether we go through or not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creampuff 22,628 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 What choice do we have?If we don't play him we're playing a fullback in there, so yes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Stu 1 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Even a half interested bougherra is better than anybody else we currently have. If Goian gets clearance then definetly him and boughy at the back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amac9 2,060 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 He was excellent yesterday beside Goian.Wy would we leave our best defender out for a game that could end up netting us over £15m if we progress to the next round and possibly the CL group stages?If he can help us get past Malmo then he can go with my blessings.

kplfishtank 4,660 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 yes he should play if fit, as we are still paying his wages , then sell him as 3 million is too much to refuse with 1 year left on contract. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boughy probably doesn't give a fuck whether we go through or not.Thats a bit harsh, the guys gave his all for us since he joined. We get an offer for him that suits us and he gets 35k a week tax free. Suits everybody. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goianegra 4,686 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 It's funny how you said "Bougherra was poor" and "McCulloch could do a job" in the same post. Of course we should play our best CB in a game that's worth millions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

norgerpd 280 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 We dont have a choice for Malmo.After that,punt him and use the money for the guy from Anderlecht.Seems straight forward to me but this is Rangers we are talking about.We never seem to look at the long-term situation.

simplythebest 11,453 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Bougherra's head is elsewhere no doubt, but our alternatives aren't good enough to drop him for a game as important as this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,581 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Judging by some of these comments you'd think we need Bougherra never to leave us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 i think it would be rediculous not to play boogieand frankly, the calls for moving other people into defense is kinda sillyso, you want to botch together a central defense for one of - if not the most important game of our season?that's crazy, it's not football manager lads, these guys are human beings and need time to gel with each other and create an understanding with each other.we will already have unrest in the back 4 if goian is playing, you cant constantly fuck about with a team unless they are all world class players - we only have a couple of world class players, so no way. same defense is the only way to go for this Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
