Tugay had arguably better and more established players around him whereas Niko will probably be one of the first names on the team sheet in this squad, but i'm hopeful Niko will go on and make an even better contribution. I would say Pedro Mendes, but thats cause I'm fairly young and can't remember many other players joining of that calibre. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye Pedro would be a fair shout too, although Tugay and Niko have came in at a similar age while Mendes was a wee bit older iirc. Either way we know we've got a player who is capable of a killer pass and not adverse to a pop at goal so it's good Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoGeo7 10,627 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Calamity Bell out and Kranjcar in........speaks volumes for how far we've come in a year. Really excited by this one, I think he has the quality to cut open stubborn defences which we were sorely lacking last year. Now to mariappa, full back cover, go and a striker.

smartypants 4,460 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Potentially excellent signing, things are shaping up nicely Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillete 1,338 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Injury free , he will be a great addition I'm sure my worry is we don't have a good number 9 in to compliment his passing vision. this guy could nutmeg a mermaid Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyscott1963 18,636 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Sort of reminds me of Tugay the new guy. Why run about and waste energy when you can ping passes the way he is capable of. You could become famous with that 55th new world record title win for Rangers. Welcome Niko Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanoli 4,628 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Welcome aboard Niko. If he's still half the player he was a couple years ago we're in for a real treat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I'm excited by this one. Our midfield is bulking in numbers and I'm intrigued to see how Warburton will set-up this coming season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NixonRFC 1,453 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Name value alone it's a great piece of business, my worry is he's only played 80 odd games in 4 years and was recently at a 2nd Division club in America, if we can consistently get him on the pitch we'll have a real player on our hands, the battle for now is getting him on the pitch consistently. He's definitely worth a gamble, him and Barton are blue chippers for name value though they'll have the dressing room buzzing Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILLYBOY50 1,638 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 think he will be a superb signing for the gers he will unlock defences with ease something we struggled to do last year. hopefully we now get an out and out goalscorer to get on the end of the balls that Niko will now provide. he is coming onto sky sports shortly interested in what he has to say about signing for the most successful club in the world.

MolsGoals 96 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 The big question is if we can get Niko fit because his class is undoubted, feel very confident of this with the background staff we have in place. This could turn out to be our best piece of business in a long time as we have picked up a very high quality player for next to nothing all because he had lost his way a little bit.

Other than the cup final, I can't see how it could have been much better. The football alone was night and day from the style we used to play imo. I agree its a stunning signing, has quality written all over it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
