Goram Stevens Cuellar Gough (c) Numan Laudrup Ferguson Van Bronkhorst Albertz Prso McCoist Subs Klos Amoruso Gascoigne McCall Reyna McCann Mols We do have a lack of obvious right sided options both at RB and RM in a greatest XI of the last 30 yrs. I've put Laudrup as RM, but don't feel he is most effective there. Stevens was probably our best RB, although Hutton had an outstanding 8-9mths. Cuellar had arguably the best European season of any player we've had in my time watching Rangers. He was a wall and an outstanding siege defender. Trevor Steven on the right. Classy player.

The man was an absolute flyer and could give centre halves a 5 yard start and still leave them in his wake. He scored 145 goals in 163 games!!! Treated shamefully by Scot Symon when he was blamed for the Berwick cup defeat. This was made even worse when Symon refused to play him in the Cup Winners Cup Final and played a centre half, Roger Hynd, up front instead. We lost 1-0 when we had beaten some great teams on the way through. I do not think it was his decision; from memory it was the chairman John Lawrence who blamed several players and said they would never wear the jersey again. Forrest, Dandy McLean were picked out and later Symon went by the wayside. I firmly believe if Lawrence had not thrown the toys out the pram we would have won the Cup Winners cup.

Without a doubt we would have won the ECWC in 1967 if we had kept hold of Forrest, the best finisher i've seen in my time watching Rangers, with due respect to McCoist. For what it's worth imo we would have stopped their run of titles also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tannerall 25,935 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Goram Jardine, Young, Gough Caldow Souness, Baxter, Gascoigne, Ferguson McCoist Laudrup Had to think very hard before leaving out Greig, Henderson and Cooper. Even Numan and Butcher. And am expecting Morelos might just be squeezing in to the team in the near future. And if I was a (biased) manager I'd be shoving Alex MacDonald and Tam Forsyth in for sentimental reasons. (Also a shame we do not have decent video of the pre 1950s players ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many I had to sadly leave out. That's as close to the perfect team that I've seen with possibly Souness in for McCall . Would also find a place on the bench for one of my favourite Rangers players - Alex MacDonald . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morelos got sent off in the 98th minute against a cellic select after scoring 12 in a 18-1 win. (Biased ref gave tims a penalty which the goalie saved but the ref scored the rebound.)

Wullies_bowly_legs 3,860 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Just realise how much some of the younger bears have missed with regards to the great players we have had at the club like Caldow, Greig, Baxter, Forrest, Henderson etc. Same with me as regards the famous Iron Curtain in the 40s- 50’s As I still remember my old man going on about them. The Iron Curtain was the defensive line of Rangers F.C. during the late 1940s and early 1950s. The normal line-up in the early 1950s consisted of goalkeeper Bobby Brown, full backs George Young and Jock Shaw, centre half Willie Woodburn and wing halves Ian McColl and Sammy Cox. Would have loved to have seen them play.💙 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
