Yes Have any shown any signs of losing their edge, fitness or age affecting them, lack of heart for the battle ahead? No Folk negative for the sake of it, or prerry naive thinking we'll get better whilst taking chance of the new player not settling in quickly etc. Age isn't really that important. We'd struggle to find a better keeper than McGregor even if we had millions to spend on a new keeper. He's been fantastic and could probably play for another few years. Pretty much everyone wanted Davis playing on Sunday because he has been playing so well, and Defoe has scored 13 goals. Providing Defoe takes a drastic wage reduction, all 3 would be very decent moves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Great news. All quality despite their age and add value. They may not be on mega money, but they won't be cheap either. Throw in Gerrard's new deal and no doubt his staff. We're skint right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point is he’s going from a mega wage funded by Bournemouth to a very much more modest wage at Rangers, shoes commitment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BouncyBluenose87 1,561 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 To those questioning the extension to Defoe’s deal...give yourselves a shake. He’s contributed massively so far this season, both on and off the park. Ok, he’s had a dry spell in recent weeks with the limited game time he’s had, but nobody will be more aware of this than Jermaine himself. He’s a model pro (love the guy...a perfect role model for strikers everywhere) that’s still hungry to score goals. The players around him need to step up and do more to put chances on a plate for him. Give him these clear cut chances and the majority of the time he’ll produce the goods. He’s ruthless in front of goal 👍🏼 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyscott1963 18,405 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Apart from the fact they will continue to add experience to the squad,it will be some amount of experience to pass on to the younger players in the squad. Seems like Alfie has been getting the benefit of Jermain Defoe being here. No brainer for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmcf 34,303 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Happy with that . McGregor and Davis have been instrumental to where we are today and though Defoe hasn't featured much lately his goal tally has been impressive . Thats the backbone of the team right there , and their experience will prove invaluable to those around them . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gj923 1,457 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 McGregor is a no brainer as he has proven his worth. Likewise with Davis happy to keep him provided he is on modest wages given his age. Defoe no as although he has scored 10 goals in the SPL the majority have come in games we have/would have won easily without his contribution. Let’s face it he will not be getting offered peanuts to stay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they’ve been good this season but we’re not even half way through yet and they’re at an age where they can’t go on much longer, will they still be able to do it at the level we require over a year from now? I hope the club have got this right because they’ll still both be on good money and I can’t help but feel that could be better spent on younger players. Davis was sadly missed on Sunday and none of our young midfielders come anywhere close to what he brings. These three players can help get us the league title this season. Worry about age degeneration next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
