chris182 6,310 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Aye he will most likely improve their back line. Nice they are spending a fortune on his loan tho. Unless he can play goalie they've still an issue there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only reason he's getting the big hype. He is an improvement on what they have. Hoping but it goes the same way as when they got Robbie Keane.

Any ‘big name’ player (in their mind) is a gamble in coming to Scotland, far bigger and better have came and failed to establish themselves as their reputation would suggest or even taken time to settle. I said previously the main thinking in my mind regarding him was fan appeasement (one of their own) at a fraction of the cost, smoke and mirrors. I’ve no idea how good or bad he is as I’ve never watched him on a consistent basis and I’m not going to be duped in to believing he is (as suggested in the thread earlier a Sergio Ramos type figure) just because he plays for a mediocre ROI side and has came from a run of the mill premiership team where he couldn’t get a game. I don’t care who they sign, I still believe in a head to head we have the beating of them including him or not... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimfanciesthedude 24,562 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 It's not wether Duffy is better than the two they have, its wether duffy can play in the spfl no bother (he can) and therefore can they sell ajer for decent money and still canter it against dung scottish teams (likely so) Like it or not this is a smart move from they bastards if they can get their ten mill for ajer, now the CL is gone all they care about is the 10, not the Europa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZZed 4,510 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 He's that good I've never heard of him up till now and he has been a premier league player. Rangers will deal with him in exactly the same way as all the big names from the Premier League who arrived at septic park, he will get put back in his box.

RangersMedia 35,961 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 They lack physicality at the back - Duffy is strong in the air and a more physical British style CB. He is a square peg for a square hole, and I don't think he makes them weaker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Monk 3,207 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 He definitely improves them, however, I think Duffy is one of those defenders who does better in a team that likes to defend and is used to sitting deeper. In this league slow CB's get exploited as both us and them are forced to play high lines and a lot of his defending is going to be against counter attacks. He's clearly a good player but not anything to really fear imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
