dazzapat 83 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 If they play those 2 up top together I will be even more gobsmacked than the day I was when I found out Sebo was going to play the lone striker role against them and proceeded to frighten the shite out of them.

whytes3 254 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 In theory I think it could be a greta paring. I don't think Cousin will ever play for us again though - our summer signings have indicated as much. Also, I think Cousin's temprament is too questionable for it to be a long-term measure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 54,252 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Lafferty's best and most consistant form has come when he has played with a smaller more nippy & mobile striker. If he is going to be number one then he should be partnered by either novo or Miller. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginnes90 0 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 I would like to see a Lafferty and Novo partnership but doubt Walter will play them together. Also I know that Naismith is injured but I think him and Lafferty would link up well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby 41 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 i have seen cousin play well once - lyon away. the rest was bollocks imo, and his attitude makes it all the worse. im embarassed he has not been shoved out the door yet - rather lose the money than have him associated with us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfc_no1fan 13 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Id play Cousin over Boyd, Velicka and JCD any day of the week. An arrogant striker who can produce quality, is better than 2 immobile objects and a has been. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chookes 21 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 While I agree that Cousin may in fact be our best striker, I'd like to see Novo with Lafferty. Both players will never give up and Kyle appears to have that bit of quality to go with Novo's over-enthusiasm. I would, however, like to see Cousin in, ahead of Boyd, JCD and Velicka. Maybe the environment and atmosphere will fire him up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should find himself on the bench and Beasley should come in and take his place Our ball retention and hold up play has to be better Novo and Boyd out Lafferty and Beasley in (Only because Cousin will not be considered) --------------------McGregor---------------- Broadfoot----Bougherra---Weir-----Papac --------------------Thomson----------------- -------------Davis---------Mendes---------- Beasley------------Miller-----------Lafferty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebeerhunter 0 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 I cant see Cousin playing for Rangers again. It will be Lafferty and Kenny Miller up front. When have you ever seen Walter pull something unexpected. Never gonna happen. it will be the tried formula not something new, the only other pairing is kenny Miller and Boyd which might work as 1 is moblie but couldn`t score in a brothel and the other looks like he has just scored in a brothel. A wee question, how long will it be if Boydy doesnt score soon before either Walter drops him or the Ibrox crowd gets on his back? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thinking was Lafferty was the same as DadoBringBack, the mobile striker, and Novo is the best we've got at that. I don't think Beasley will play (although I hope he does) but that team will be what we see on Sunday, with Novo in instead of DMB. Is Lafferty fully recovered?

SuperRangers 2 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Cant see it being anything other than 4-5-1 with cousin up front as hes showed in the last few games against them that Caldwell and Mchandus canny handle him. Novo must start as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi PB, I just think that Boyd looks off form just now. Cousin is/was injured and that was why he has not played. I cannot see anyone buying Cousin or JCD. Like I said Cousin to me if he has a good attitude is our best overall striker and I think Lafferty adds pace and height up front too. As for ranjam21 do me a favour and get your facts right. The current RM poll shows that RM members rate Cousin our best overall striker. So go and think before coming up with such pish yourself. Generally speaking treat other members with more respect in your threads anyway even if you do not agree with them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulu 981 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I have been spouting it all week Cousin and Lafferty up front Smeltic wont know what hit them McAnus would put Boyd and JCD in his back pocket but two big guys like Cousin and Lafferty running at them is a different ball game.
