DiamondDan 2,386 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Laudrup edged Gazza but nobody else in the last 40 years has been anywhere near their level. They 2 were in a league of their own. Others deserving of a mention, but not at the level of they 2 are Cooper, De Boers (were at their level just not by time Rangers got them) and Gough.

Mate Cuellar went through a period where it was literally like watching a man play against 12 year olds. He was colossal. Really surprised he didn’t go to the very top because he was immense, I was gutted when he left. More so than anybody else we’ve sold on.

hammer93 15,060 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Gazza shades it over Laudrup, Cooper was my idol growing up but those two were phenomenal Polo and 32Blue 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly below that level Butcher, Johnston, McCoist, Hateley, Trevor Steven, Albertz, Van Bronckhorst, Numan, Ferguson before he disappeared down south.

MurrayWilson 3,439 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Gazza at his absolute best had no equal, not even laudrup and thats saying something. Laudrup did it a lot more often though, he hardly had even had a mediocre game never mind a quiet one, until his last season. 32Blue, WWTC and Polo 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherTJ 172 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Laudrup, then Davie Cooper - imagine if they'd played in the same era on either wing... Gazza was probably the most naturally gifted we ever had - but more often than not the body would turn up and the mind would be elsewhere.

WWTC 2,247 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 McCoist doesnt get the recognition he deserves, his two goals that ultimately won him the golden boot summed him up, but they’re not as viewed as some of his others. But Gascoigne for me, without question. It was almost as if he went out every game with the mindset that people has paid to see him, and he very rarely disappointed. Will never forget his performance at Firhill. Was standing behind the goals in the old stadium and the pitch was horrific, yet he floated around the whole game. Literally 5 feet away from a World Class player who’s head was aa much in the stands with us as it was on the pitch. On his game, simply unplayable. The most naturally gifted footballer ive ever seen. MurrayWilson 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaka 1,694 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 In my lifetime it's got to be Laudrup. He's literally the reason I became interested in football and became a Rangers fan. Although as a defender I always had a soft spot for Amoruso. Laudrup1984 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EMRFC 4,824 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I mean probably someone from late 90s/early 00s but as far as me personally being able to watch games and understand what’s actually happening it’s probably someone like Cuellar, Davis, Jelavic, McGregor or even Tavernier.

SANDYGER 149 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Laudrup, everytime he had the ball you just knew something was going to happen. Absolute Rolls Royce of a footballer who was so far ahead of anybody in our league with the exception of Gazza of course. I can't recall him ever having a poor or average game Laudrup1984 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
