papaguy51 912 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Good. Maybe Furman our Lampard will actually get a go at things now. Now, consider this. I've been moaning for weeks about how Celtic are about to sign the understudy of (IMO) the best player in the world, Xavi Hernandez of Barca, assuming it actually goes through. I've been all Mr Doom and Gloom about it, probably boring the pants off half of you. But I read that snippet from Stardog this morning and it's gave me hope! In our reserves we have the understudy of Frank Lampard in young Furman. He'd been at Chelsea longer than Frank and had trained with him for years. A runner beyound our strikers? Could he well be the answer to our problem? I wonder if Walter will turn a blind eye to yet another excellent young talent, he could save us £3mil in the transfer market.

ricksen_da_best 2,034 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 The day he signed, hes been touted as " Our Lampard ". Even the chelsea fans say he was a daft release. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade 0 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 He is Lampards double on the park aswell. The lad is twenty now, this season will surely be one of the most important in his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey_RFC 122 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Scott Durie told me that Furman doesn't have much pace but he's got very good technical ability... Lampard anyone? Papaguy, I think you may be right . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paintbox 0 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 I always worry about hyping up a young player too much. Few of them even get a chance and now we're saying this guy should be a Rangers Lampard. If he isn't after three games do we expect loads of supporters will tell him he's shite and should eff off?

ScotBear 144 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 This guy should have been involved in our first team more regularly long before now. He's 20 FFS, how long are they going to hold him back for ?! Is he worse than Adam ? Is he worse than McCulloch in a central midfield role ? Is he worse than Dailly in a central midfield role ? I would guess.........no f*cking way ! So get him in the team Walter......now !! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueIsTheColour 35 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 There is no harm in giving the lad a chance but from what i have seen he isn't going to make it at Rangers. I know this is an unpopular oppinion but i haven't seen anything from that lad, either in the reserves or the first team which suggests to me he has the presence and composure that a central midfielder at Rangers needs. He certainly doesn't have that instinct of being in the best positions when needed that Lampard has mastered and doesn't get forward nearly enough. If anything he is a younger Thomson in my oppinion.

The thing is PB, if he's worse than Dailly, McCulloch or Adam at 20, there's no way we should be keeping him. I agree on our fans with youngsters, we possibly have the worst set of fans available in terms of giving chances to young players. It's pretty positive here on RMedia, but at Ibrox it's totally different. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTP 221 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 My mate met Furman and a few of the other lads 2 weeks ago and one of the boys (Elmslie or Shinnie) was winding Dean up saying he was the gaffers "bum boy"! So maybe Walter does like him? (cue the witty replies .....) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nimbus1 1 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 regardless of age, if a player is good enough then he will play, rooney, owen, walcott..........to anme a few, at 20 its that time whereby if hes good enough he will play, i honestly dnt think he can be any worse than adam, lm, daily.... not seen much of him, 1st time was the liverpool game last week, and he was chasing shadows.....!!! i honestly dnt think he is the answer, but time will tell.......

We know that under Walter, the 'good enough / old enough' theory doesn't apply. John Fleck IS better than Charlie Adam and Lee McCulloch. Doesn't play though, simply because Walter thinks he's too young. And to use that Liverpool game as an example is ridiculous. If Furman was chasing shadows, he was the only one fucking moving!

radlord 24 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 No excuse for not putting Furman in. He looked good last season when he came in against Motherwell. Even if Wattie wants to think of it as temporarily dropping one of his gay lovers from midfield due to the Kaunas result. Maybe that'll stop him getting a nosebleed.

I had already said that i was basing my oppinion on his performances in both the reserves AND the first team. Yes i seen him against Motherwell and Dundee United. What is your point?
