Bazza 21 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Was talking with some guys in the bar tonight about the possibility of this latest Frenchman being linked to us, being a success at Ibrox. This raised the usual points of have ANY Frenchmen really excelled at Rangers? I can't think of too many. The question that we finished on though gave us the most to ponder...What nationality, outwith GB, has had the most success at Ibrox?We came to our own conclusions, but what to you all think?

Coopermania 1 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Good question. Difficult to answer, I would say weve had many good players from overseas, the best being Laudrup in my time. Denmark of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 505 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 JAB, Charbonnier and Hemdani have all done reasonably well. Others such as Boli, Guivarc'h and Fanfan didn't really cut the mustard (sic)....But, probably English, Danish or Dutch generally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza 21 Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 It's hard, because a few nations have had a lot of players with us without really excelling, ie France, where some have had just the one and have done well, Reyna.Overall we stumped for the Dutch because we felt they had the best standard of quality over a wide range of quantity.
