Broxi 11,674 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Deserves a thread of his own, was brilliant today. Considering he is only 17 years old I think he is one of the best, certainly most exciting, player we have produced in years!If he moves on from Rangers he should definitely make it in the Premier League and a future Scotland star if he fulfils his potential.Maybe premature statements but he's certainly looking a player just now. Can't make the mistake of leaving too soon though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eosmhdo 1,879 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Great game, great prospect.Only young so if well advised will stay til we are on top again and will still a young man then.Hope his agent is his dad and not one of the parasites Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamie 4,855 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 It's great when he gets the ball in space and lifts the head.You can almost feel the anticipation.Great close control and first touch.Needs some work on crossing with his left foot and he'd be awesome.

Hilly86 714 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Played so well today, obviously gave himself confidence to try things.One bit of control in the second half was just glorious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cushynumber 25,178 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Thought he played really well today. I'd like to see soome of our lounger lads work on there upper body strengh in the Gym. I know he is only 17 but half of them look like a sharp breeze would blow them over.If he does the work now, then at 21 he will be virtually unstoppable Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue68 2,497 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Hopefully we will have the chance to watch him develop into a top class player. He has the potential to be one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainAmerica18 846 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Could only laugh when he turned back on himself just to nutmeg somebody again Best I've seen of him, deserved a goal to round the day off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvager 498 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Superb talent. Just hope he fulfills it at Rangers over a long period of time. Has a chance to be a BIG star if it does not go to his head like some others before him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Carpintero 546 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 When he moves on it should be for many many millions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcodebear 85 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 He should remain on the right of midfield .................that appears to be his natural position?Why McCoist keeps playing him on the left is beyond all understanding.He doesn't have 'Bud' Johnston's turn of speed, but he makes up for it with his sheer ability.He has it in him to be an exceptional player.

Moody Blue Legend 61,960 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 When he moves on it should be for many many millions.Hopefully a good few years away, cracking wee player. Getting more confident as the weeks go by. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzalivesforever 2,001 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 We didn't produce him. He was at Kilmarnock for 7 years and they released him at 16 due to some underlying medical problem that would halt his playing career. Days later he signed for us.

bornabear 6,221 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 He certainly is the best young player I've seen for quite a while.He has style, great football brain and is arrogant when needed, reminds me of a certain legend who had these qualities....

barcodebear 85 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 kenny shiels must be kicking himself now lol, boys pure class, how they let him go is beyond anyone.I read recently that as a young lad he was plagued by injuries and although Kilmarnock thought he had great potential they thought it was a risk to sign him on a contract.Rangers wanted him and the rest is history.Sometimes it's worth taking a punt on a promising young lad ............growing pains can affect their physicality.
