Arnold with his team mate and friend?

Should we be offended?

Didn't say be offended, I just put up a picture of him hanging out with his mate. His other pics are cringworthy of just himself posing

If the football life does not work out, we know his other job will be.

I think there's a descent player in there, and with proper coaching, he could go on to be a fairly descent SPL level player. I doubt he'd get that here though. Probably best for both parties if he were to move on.

[elephants stoned 2,994]

Hope he makes the world cup, if only to get us a decent fee if he did ok.

[Jimfanciesthedude 24,573]

From what I have seen so far, I just don't get him. He had a decent game pre-season v Dundee when he scored and after that he has been terrible, cannot pass to a team mate, dithers on ball and loses possession etc. He had a good match against Dundee Utd then poor again after that. The sooner we punt him the better imo.

he's a central defensive mid who's being asked to bomb up and down the right flank for us, no fucking wonder he looks awful and un-interested

[Creampuff 22,628]

The difference in the balance of the team dropping him for Aird made was remarkable.

worryingly you have to wonder why aird was dropped in the first place, aird showed amazing potential in the bottom league, he should never have been dropped at the start of last season

[King Jela 20,371]

He's been shite for us, but then again I wouldn't expect a defensive midfielder to flourish for us playing on the right wing.

I heard it was because someone discovered he was from Canada

Has he made his mind up yet. Canada or Scotland....

[there'sonlyoneamoruso 1,724]

If Peralta does miss the WC, I'll be disappointed for him. He may never get a chance to play on the big stage again.

He had a poor season last year, but as others have said he was played out of position. Would love to see how he gets on if played as a DM for us next season.

[FernandoR20 2,133]

Saying he's been ruled out. Fucking typical.

[bouncy 315]

he will be the world cup player of the tournament then get his move...or get injured and we're stuck with him

[Gillete 1,338]

Yep

Confirmed he will miss the world cup

[STEPPS BOY 74,053]

There goes Honduras's chances of winning World cup

[therightway 65]

So if he is ruled out of the tournament does that mean we don't get any World Cup payments from FIFA can only hope he was maybe in their official named WC squad and we may be due something still even if he is replaced

Missing out: Arnold Peralta is out of this summer's World Cup.SNS Group

Rangers midfielder Arnold Peralta has been ruled out of the World Cup through injury.

The 25-year-old was taken out of Honduras' 23-man squad for Brazil and replaced with defender Edder Delgado.

Coach Luis Fernando Suarez had tried to give the player time to recover from a thigh injury but he was unable to play any part in warm up matches against Turkey and Israel.

Peralta had previously expressed his desire to look for a new club after the tournament, saying: "The idea is to look for another team after the World Cup, that was my idea, to listen to offers.

"Like every player I would like to continue touring countries and take in more experiences."

Honduras have been drawn in Group E with France, Switzerland and Ecuador.

Before the tournament starts they will face England in Miami on Saturday, June 7.

That's us definitely stuck with him then

Wonder if he wants a hand finding another club?

[centenarystand 2,227]

If it wasnt for bad luck we would have no luck at all.

[BFerguson6 121]

I see nothing at all in him that resembles a decent footballer, we went halfway round the world and came back with this coo.

Triple H?

[BlueAvenger 10,276]

Devastating news that he is out of the World Cup.......we will be stuck with him !!

[elephants stoned 2,994]

I was looking forward to seeing him
