It's great. If you watch him from the moment he realises he's not getting the ball he's just planted to the ground watching and hoping ?

He was a bit inconsistent, though he had it in his game to score some crackers or produce in big games. Generally a good squad player for us, and - unlike many of recent years - wasn't a total shitebag. 

I'll always have a soft spot for him because of that goal against Celtic, as well as him transferring his contract over in 2012 when many supposed diehards chose to bag a bigger signing fee instead. Still seems to enjoy reminding the manky bastards about that goal too.

Usual ibrox whipping boy. Ironically consistent, never spectacular but had some important moments. And still took pelters.

I thought he was pretty pish to be fair, although that goal against the beggars will live with me forever!! ????

[kanjo 26,328]

Don't think he was too great to be honest.  I always thought McCulloch was the better option back then.  He did do his part for 3iar though and he gave us some great moments.

A steady player, like Papac.

He was pish.

[Misteral 2,932]

Technically he came up short but tried his best, and apart from that goal we probably wouldn't remember him. But we do and we all love him for that magic moment.

See more than anything Id take a guy like him back immediately. 

We've somehow always managed to have a squad of decent players, but who despite some being limited (edu)  just seemed to have a will to win. 

So I accept those who didnt rate him, but id hunner percent take him and his like back tomorrow. 

 

[ally62 393]

fuckin love that game, got ma picture in Nuts cause of that game....great day....!!!!!

[SIRB_72 4,000]

I actually really liked him, he always worked hard and tried his best despite being limited. He will always be a cult hero because that goal!

I always remember his performance in the match below against them. He ran himself into the ground that day. He chased every ball and never gave up. He didn't give them a second that day. Don't know if anyone remembers his performance that because it was very much all about the 3 points and grinding it out.

 

[McEwan's Lager 30,531]

He was quite average and played only a bit part the first two seasons he was here.

Third season he played nearly every game because we sold Thomson, sometimes alongside Lee McCulloch - a partnership that was a bit soul destroying.

His last season was his best. He actually played quite well until December when we chucked away our 12 point lead.

[cushynumber 25,178]

I could never see what he actually brought to the team. He was always the least wanted name on the teamsheet because he wasn't very good. Not very good at all.

[RangersMedia 35,961]

For a player that wasn't great technically... he was a regular starter in a team that won 7 trophies. Obviously had something about him, although was one of the weaker regulars of that era.

This. One of the best moments of my life.

Ebded up miles from where I sat 

[EastEnclosureBear 2,919]

THAT goal will live with me forever, I remember looking over at the Copland mid celebration and it was fucking wild. Still makes the hairs stand up. 

[The hustler 398]

Had EDU not been american then I think he'd achieved more. For me there's something about american players that prevents them reaching the very top. Don't know what it is

[gmcf 34,233]

Think he was very underrated by our fans . Didn't do a lot on the ball , but whether we were defending or attacking he was always available to take a pass . Like Lafferty , seemed to come alive when it mattered - after the split . 

As an individual , thought he was an ignorant b.....d . Went with my kids to get autographs after games on their shirts and he always just walked out wearing his headphones . Got his pictures , but it always seemed it was a drag . Not as bad as Naismith , Jelavich , McGregor though , who always sneaked out another door . 

[TMB 14,167]

I didn't like Edu.  We were always told he would be box to box but he offered little in defence or attack.  

I was pissed off with the shape of the midfield in general towards the end of his time here.  We had Naismith out wide (although I know he never kept to that position), Davis in the middle, and Edu next to him.  We would've been better with Davis wide right, Naismith in the middle, and getting rid of Edu foe a genuine ball winning midfielder.  In fact, there was one game Edu missed and Naismith started as a CM and was outstanding. 

Edu was a good athlete but he lacked any real ability.  I guess you could say he was much Edu about nothing.

Sir Walters reaction when the edu pops up with the world class wonder strike ???

[Billythebear77 10,386]

And he wasn't brilliant, but he wasn't shite.....decent hard worker in the middle of the pitch, he let Davis and others do the nice stuff.
