I wouldn't be using that Pedro deemed him surplus, if I was you, to bolster your point. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be helping our youth players out - guys like Barjonas and Burt who appear to be more technical footballers Wouldnt say they are more technical thank him. He just doesnt have the legs anymore Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarBear1972 180 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I would keep Miller as player coach next season. Always decent for the big games and pops up with important goals. Not a player for week in week out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always decent for the big games and pops up with important goals. Not a player for week in week out. I think the problem with Miller is that he will want to play in every game, even though he doesn't have the levels anymore for that, and that could adversely affect the team due to his stubbornness. And Niko will go at the end of the season, as he should. His legs have definitely gone for this level and he needs a walking pace game rather than 100 miles an hour like here. He should do a del Piero and go to Oz, or back to the states. Better pace and climate for him, and he can enjoy his football. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laudrup1690 1,064 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Would of been a cracking player for us 10 years ago,just a shame we got him to late in his career. get rid as soon as possible Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fair point and I get why you've made it. However, if you talk the talk, get in amongst the fans, sing the songs, etc would you not have a bit more dig than Halliday? He'll look back and realise he wasted his chance to be a Ranger rolling around the ground clutching various parts of his body. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll look back and realise he wasted his chance to be a Ranger rolling around the ground clutching various parts of his body. While being a bear can give you that little extra dig, it doesn't make you physically stronger. One of the reasons Halliday struggled in the Championship and was "rolling around" was because he was getting kicked about by hammer-throwing cunts. His lack of strength is an obvious weakness in his game, and the main reason why I don't think he can make it here, but I certainly won't fault him for trying his best. It's just that his best isn't good enough, sadly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davie Weir, Gordon Strachan etc... Players a bit older than 39 have played at the top level many many times. I'm sure there was a 50yr old playing at a decent level in the 80's/90's. That's not me saying give him another contract, but I wouldn't be against him being given a coaching job and still be registered to play. Obviously wages would be structured on a pay as you play deal with his basic coaching wage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange Persson 548 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 A bit sore on Niko here I think. Guy has done nothing but try really. To get an injury like he did, at his age after many previous ones, then fight back to actually play, takes a lot of damned hard work. It hasn't worked out but the guy has killed himself trying to get fit right from he signed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incidentally there still is a 50 year old playing in Japan...can’t remember his name but he has played in a number of other leagues also.
