Joe Garner.

Fukking thread is reeking

[King Jela 20,350]

Think the criticism is harsh. He had a good chance in the first he completely fluffed but I think he was far from our biggest problem today. 

[jim beam 2,188]

Really not impressed so far but will give him time.

[markem 7,251]

Some extremely harsh words being chucked about on this thread.  

Let's give the guy a chance eh.

Like an 8 year old always trying to get the last hit in. The type of cunt you'd love to punch. I do think he will come good though.

If he'd been sent off in the first ten for a petulant kick out while on the floor he'd had deserved a punch in the face. So far looks out of his depth.

[torquay gers 91]

at least the bloke plays with a bit of fire in his belly because he cant believe is playing for the rangers, so fucking back off

[.Williamson. 81,941]

I think he'll come good. 

He could do with cutting out the wrestling shite he does when he goes down but I like that he puts himself about a bit

[insider 123]

I am not impressed with him at all and I have to question the manager who sanctioned his purchase for 1.8 million pounds.

He would be better served actually trying to play football rather than what  He does at at the moment which I struggle to describe to be honest.

I agree.  Garner and Waghorn could be a terrific partnership.

I think he'll come good. He's strong, he works hard, and he's technically pretty good.

I think he looks technically really poor. His shot in the first half was going about 10 yards wide before it was deflected and then he just swung a leg in hope at the cutback and completely missed the ball. His first touch isn't tight enough either.

I don't like to put a Rangers player down but as I've said in other posts I have seen nothing to give me any encouragement that Garner will come good!

 

[Pearson83 1,059]

Maybe to early to judge but can see him struggling with style manager plays. 

[DESGER 241]

If the rest of the team had the same fight we would be OK!

[plumbGER 24,518]

Pretty much of the same opinion that he needs to focus on playing football and cutting out the needless wrestling shite.

There's a time and a place for it if the defender tries to rough you up, but going out your way to start it is pointless imo.

[To Be A Ranger 4,032]

Get a grip ffs.

He's the type of CF who will give everything at the risk of a booking. He goes head to head and fights like fuck.  The service to him is abysmal.  He fights until booked then has to lay off a bit. He is great in the air.

This Rangers team takes so long to get a decent pass to him he has a massive CB on his back before he can make space to do something with the ball.

Potentially great player with crap service

[Zappa6995 3,637]

Never Rangers class so he suits this current team to a tee.

hope you are right but cannot see it he seems more interested in fighting with opposition  he has shown ne no skill and certainly cannot finish

Over 100 career goals with an average of a goal every 3 games.

He can finish.

Really disappointed with this signing so far. Biggest transfer fee we've paid in years and for what? A diving wee bastard who spends more time rolling around the deck wrestling with defenders legs than actually playing football. His nonsense is really starting to grate on me because the reality is he simply isn't a great footballer! 

I know it's early doors and he deserves his chance like anyone else but he has to step it up big style and ffs stop flopping around like a wee fanny. Cringey stuff and not what I'd expect from a Rangers centre forward.

He's pish tbh.

You think "he's pish" ?! A bit harsh mate, but it's your opinion I guess. But I can remember the stick Mark Hateley got from our fans after his first few games, and the rest they say is history! I'm definitely going to wait and see if he comes good before panning him.

This

 

the guys been wrote off after a few games!!!, he's getting next to no service, playing up front on his own, it's a fucking disgrace some off the comments on here!....today he was a bit over the top with a few, fair enough, but at least he shows he's bothered about winning.

A diving wee bastard who flops around like a wee fanny and he's pish.

No rush to judgement there,I'm glad you're giving him a chance.

Maybe I am too quick to judge, as I said he deserves his chance like anybody else.

That being said, he's been awful so far.

I thought he was one of our better players today and this is coming from someone who's openly not been impressed with him, didn't want to sign him and was annoyed he was starting.

That being said I hate this argument that he has no service, why are people ignoring he had two clear chances and blew them both?

I was the same, I don't particularly rate him but he's a useful player to have if anything and he was better than a couple of the other players. 

I don't see him as a lone striker right enough...

[Johnmon 12]

Refs are wise to him already. Preston's most booked player last year and his goal tally for the season was fecking 6. 

Cost more than Dembellend who has already hit 10. Needs to drop the plastic hard man shit and start hitting the net before he earns any respect

[Bears r us 30,769]

Far too soon to know but his antics will see many yellow and red cards if someone does not have a word with him IMO. 

[jamess 3,407]

Bit early to tell,  but i'm not sure how he fits into the way we are set up to play.

[Sweetheart 8,458]

For me Garner needs to chill abit when playing, he gets frustrated too easily with the physicality of the Scottish game. The opposition see that and play it to their advantage. He needs to get a grip on it before he gets red carded.
