A game at Tannadice when it was covered in sand was one of the best performances I've seen from a player in Scotland. He was light years ahead of everyone on the pitch that day. Scored two and made two I thinkListening to that just now. de Boer certainly loved his time with us.
The treble season he was unreal! what a player

Fs mate, he was the Ajax manager, Inter, Swansea, how can you forget that? Unless he's got a twin brother I don't know about.I always thought Ronald De Boer would move into management. I know he coaches at Ajax youth levels, i wonder if he’ll ever step up to senior management.
Was it not during the 2002/03 title run in?Arveladze & de Boer both got a double.I think Flo also scored a couple that day?

Think it was Arveladze pal.I think Flo also scored a couple that day?
So did iI nearly jumped in with two feet.......nearly!!
He was a modern day attacker who could play across the forward line but a traditional number 9 was never his game. If I remember correctly for both Ajax and Barcelona he played more on the right hand side and coming infield rather than outside the fullback.Funny because I wouldnt consider de Boer a number 9 in the traditional sense but he quite clearly was. I always thought he was more of a 10 that would play off or behind a 9
Im sure I seen or read a piece where Thompson was telling the the same story.Might not be popular on here, but I like this podcast.
Got into it a lot over the last few weeks.
De Boer thinking Thompson has never played football before.
Imagine signing a 30 year old Barca / Netherlands regular these days. What a time that was to be a Rangers fan - I grew up thinking that was normal!

Was that the Saturday evening kick off?

Not sure what day it was, but I agree about De Boer. Pitch was a disgrace, 21 players falling about, De Boer imperious and ran riot.Was that the Saturday evening kick off? If so it was a great night and De Boer was outstanding
De Boer was sometimes criticized because he didn’t necessarily dive into the 40/60 tackles that some think is required of a Rangers player.
He was still a very brave player.
Against that mob I watched Balde go right through him in the first minutes of a game at Ibrox.
After complaining a bit I noticed Ronnie shouting and gesturing at his teammates that he wanted the ball into his feet. From there on he backed into Balde , got the ball to feet and drew quite a few free kicks until it looked to me that Balde had to back off.
It took a bit of guts knowing that Big Bobo was going to smash him every time he got the ball.
Balde made one of the most appalling ‘challenges’ I’ve ever seen in an Old Firm. It was on De Boer in the Konterman semi final.
Committed a Schumacher style assault on De Boer from behind. He was clearly targeting him as one of our main danger men.
It took balls for De Boer to keep getting up from these hits and still putting them to the sword.

I like that Kenny Macintyre. Doesn’t hide the fact he’s a Rangers man either.
