Wallace

[slimjim1690 4,534]

Expected most of the replies TBH, but one of my main reasons for making this suggestion is with Murphy now gone I can’t for the life of me see where any goals are going to come from on the left, Kent has no end product, Middleton can supply a ball but doesn’t look a goal scoring threat, whereas at least Wallace has scored a few in his time, I still think it may be worth a shot at least.

He could still play at left back we have choices now and will rotate the squad.

[EMRFC 4,780]

Wallace is only on the bench because Barisic can’t play Europa qualifiers, next

[DariuszAdamczuk 548]

Wallace is brutal, has been for ages

For all we fault Tav’s defensive abilities Wallace makes him look like Davie Weir defensively. 

Would give a youngster a chance before playing Wallace

I thought silly season ended when the season began? 

 

Obviously I was wrong....

After noticing his name on the bench last night it got me to thinking with Murphy gone for the season and if we don't get another winger in on time do we think that Wallace could be used in a more forward position on the left midfield, SG as mentioned that the formation will change depending upon the opposition and with Wallace decent going forward (and he has chipped in before with goals) he might be an option  in for instance a 4411 or 442, thoughts? 

worst shout ever

Gerrard is wrong. There's no way Wallace can play as a cb, back 3 or not.

Did he not play there with Hearts a bit

[Misteral 2,932]

I wouldn't be too nervous if he played as a CB in a three one day to see what happens but can't see him being played much at LB or further forward. But you never know what players are showing in training and SG can spring the odd surprise.

According to posters on this forum, our options for left wing are:

Barasic

Wallace

Lafferty

Shellsuit Bob

Grado.

Wallace will be a fantastic player as cover from the bench. Natural cover for barosic with flannigan covering Tavs position. Sttong defencive squad when we add another cb. Looking good at the back. Bring on the Million Dollar Dembele !!!

Has he ever played in LCB ?  I know some full backs move into that role when they no longer have the pace full back requires.  He is over 6ft so perhaps could be trained for it,,  Just a thought, would obviously still prefer another CB in before the window shuts.

once mate I can remember, though rather didn't - at tannadice in the cup. lost a goal inside a minute.

If this season is to bring us 55 I hope that Lee Wallace has the opportunity to play a part in it . 

[tannerall 25,935]

Said it before, Wallace could become a terrific centre back, or even better I can see him playing the defensive mid just in front of our two centre backs., and become  a mainstay again. 

I still expect him to feature strongly again for us as time goes on. Good to have a player of his experience to rely on.

[TopCat 4,511]

With all due respect to the player I want rid of Wallace tbh........ he just isn't good enough for Rangers... in any position.

[bordersbear 1,105]

Said in a thread ages ago that I think Wallace had been carrying an injury for a long time. He looked like a crab when he was running. All lopsided . Could be the reason for his long absence after his groin op.

Would be interesting to see a team/ formation made up of the mental suggestions that have been made on here. 

 

Be no worse than McCoist or Pedro's teams tbf.

He’s no even a defensive defender.

Pretty much exactly the same mate 

[16BlueSherbert90 19,223]

Question is, has he kept up with fitness since being off?  He would only be good enough for last 10 minutes of a game and even then that's a wild expectation,  surely.

He was injured as well, you think he was put on the bench of only fit enough to play 10 mins? Who do think he is Sadiq?

Yeah 

[frenv 2,125]

Gives us a stronger bench, but if selling him helping bringing in another signing (CB or AMF), I'm all for it.

[saintbob1969 1,459]

We have seen improvements in all our players: why not expect to see a better Lee Wallace under Gerrards management.

Ffs second person on this thread to say Wallace would be good as a defensive midfielder. I just don’t see it and think cunts must be on monkey dust 

No chance will he play CDM for us unless we’re ravaged with injury’s and have no other option.

[CooperSF 5,792]

Tavernier

Flanagan

 

Barisic

Wallace

 

Another CB and we are covered for the ensure back line.
