Scott Arfield

[BlueSuedeSambas 54,197]

Never understood people who talk about him as a player we need to move on. Hardworking player who can be effective from the start like he was today or come off the bench and give you a solid shift too.

Outstanding..... Thought he was done. 

 

Think he has benefited by not having to play for Canada all summer.

Looks leaner and sharper and makes runs no-one else in our midfield even thinks about making.

He has the freedom to make those runs because the other midfielders aren't 😂😂😂

Looking back to the way he played first season.  Can only benefit rangers so I’m happy.

Arfield is someone I'd always have in the squad. I think his international situation didn't help matters last year but the bigger impact on his upturn in form, for me, is having a more competitive squad. It brings out the best in good players, especially if they've gone from being a mainstay to being on the fringes for a few weeks.

Big difference in his right position, with a preseason and without international football. 

Him retiring from international duty would be great for us.

Was quietly effective on Thursday as well.

[Smile 26,621]

My man of the match.

[coopsleftboot 5,512]

The one central midfielder who will break forward ahead of the ball.  What we’ve been crying out for someone to be doing 

[Number5 2,128]

Gives you a shift and does both the dirty stuff when required and is always a threat.

Offers something totally different.

His part in the Jones goal was class

[magic8ball 27,901]

There's always chat about new midfeiders and what we want them to be, 3 guys have been getting some stick lately, Davis, Kamara and Arfield, All 3 have shown qualities recently to show that some of what we want we already have. 

[Clemdog 39,389]

I said earlier in the Season that Arfield was a good option to have in the squad, he's proving me wrong and others even more wrong. 

Right now he's our best CM.

That Ottawa helped him..

Superb today such an intelligent performance from him. Has really stepped it up in Jack's absence

I think we need to be wary of these scatter-gun threads after a good result where everyone playing get's a thread, almost - but I'm glad fans are starting to see what he (Arfield) brings to the team and the ability he has. 

Like Kent was up until recently (and Hagi currently is) and Itten was (up until today), Jordan Jones too - I wish we'd just lay off the players with ability and appreciate they have bad games/spells, not always in the managers thoughts or need time to settle back in etc etc 

They don't become bad players overnight. There's factors we need to bare in mind.

I've no time for anyone talentless playing for us - without getting started constantly on the talented players, too.

No different to the many threads on players when we drop points really. Too many get over excited or chuck the towel in over players.

He has always been hard working and gave 100% but it is nice to see it come together with a decent result. 

Will be an important player this year even if not always first choice. We have been crying about strength in depth but that is exactly what he gives us.

Agreed. I'm sick making the same point myself several times a week after a good result everyone's great and after a bad result everyone's shite. We need balance and take players on their merits/ability and not carried away either way.

[The Specky Forum Organiser 65,438]

He's been consistently good this calendar year. Carried us at points til football was stopped.

[Steelydan1690 20,228]

On his game his runs in to the box are amazing tbh

People who have never kicked a ball in their life I would imagine.

He’s back to the form he had in the first half of last season

I’m not a big fan of Arfield, but must admit he has played well for us lately.

Doesn't happen though we can either take on the world or are not much better than a pub team 😂

As good as he has played lately he is a squad player and when Aribo and Jack are back will see limited time imo.

Basically what we have needed for the last few years. 

[bornabear 6,211]

Not a lover of Scotty like some on here, but I thought he was outstanding today.

I had him as my MOTM in what was an exce!!ent team performance today.

[Dan Deacon 55,546]

Superb today. Still should have netted 2 against hibs.
