Club confirm Itten

[Jelle1880]

Can we not just enjoy Roofe until Itten is confirmed?

No!

Where's Aribo in that mate?

He's probably been our most impressive middle to front player, so far this season.

Don't get hung up on a permanent change of formation.

Not a chance we'd play that formation against the mentally challengeds or a top European side.

They'd overrun us in the midfield.

We might get 4-2-3-1 against weaker teams on occasion, but certainly not every week.

People on Twitter have been saying it 100%

This isn't twitter.

Anyone who believes anything on twitter from unofficial sources is off their head.

 

[Hazylight1989]

"Rangers have already announced the signing of Kemar Roofe but they're also closing in on Cedric Itten, the athletic understands..."

Thanks mate - Jordan Campbell is the only non fan-based media that I believe.

We should be playing that most weeks, let’s be honest.

The flat three isn’t needed against St Mirren on Sunday.

It was a toss up between Aribo and Hagi for the role behind the striker.

Your telling me the fella with 80 followers and tricolour in their bio is lying and we’re not actually skint?.

 

[Hilly5411]

but it is though, nothing in the clips made him stand out, just a big guy and that's it far as I can see, my gripe is none of these signings will be cheap, get one wrong in the striking dept, and we could be fooked for the season

Have to disagree. Seeing very different from what you’re seeing. I see a guy that’s fast for his height, technically good, comfortable on both feet, composed with finishing, strong and can link up very well with players around him

 

[RTM91]

Other than in europe & maybe against Celtic, Rangers should not be playing 2 sitting midfielders.

[bornabluenose]

No way on this Earth is Aribo dropping out mate. Right now, it's a toss-up between him and Borna as our best player (assuming Alfie goes).

Aribo is on fire and if he carries on the way he has been going he will be virtually unplayable .

 

[craigmc33]

As I stated on the other thread, and sent my proof/source into admin, Itten is in Glasgow to complete a deal to us. That’s from the Swiss side of things, in fact from one of the St Gallon executives. Admin have where I got it from

 

[Scoot1975]

Sniff sniff.

Acting like a rhat if you ask me.....

 

[Uddy Gers]

You dropping Aribo?

Hard one for me.

On his day I think Hagi scrapes it for me. Aribo is a player though.

 

[Finfaecarrick]

Welcome to Glesga Roofe and Itten,
Alfie and the Mrs are getting ready for a flittin.
Hard nut required for the centre of the park,
no-nonsense baller who's bite is a lot worse than his bark.

 

[Gazza 8]

McGregor
Tav Goldson Balogun Barisic
Jack Aribo
Roofe Hagi Kent
Itten​

Maybe.... just maybe!

Does Roofe play in the right??

I thought he played through the middle.

There isn't a chance Aribo drops out.

You’ve got me wrong here. My point is that people were making it out as if there’s been sources that have been pointing towards a more concrete link with Stuttgart than there has been with us

 

[student_loyal]

Your telling me the fella with 80 followers and tricolour in their bio is lying and we’re not actually skint?.

It's only accurate if it's actually an Ivory Coast flag!

 

[MearnsUnionist]

If Hagi and Kent are more 10s than wingers where does Roofe play, nominally, I know they're all interchanging, or 'fannying about' as I sometimes like to call it

There will be some games he'll be competing with Itten for a start, but probably more often he'll be in behind the striker in a 3, or competing with Hagi and Kent in a 2.

Will depend on the opposition mate, I reckon.

On twitter. Which is baws.

Just ignore the bollocks.

No point getting whipped up into a frenzy about any possible link until we see orange text on here.

Will you return with a different username ?.

 

[Leopold]

Hagi may be dropped then.

He wouldn’t be dropped, the squad would be utilised accordingly.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Hagi may be dropped then.

Ideally all will rotate - obviously when we are in a position to do so - rather than flogging the arses off them if we progress in Europe again.

 

[Main Stand]

I thought he played through the middle.

He does, that’s a recent thing. He’s not a number 9 though, think Steven Naismith in that he’s more of a ‘forward’ than out and out striker.

 

[RFC_Champions]

Does Roofe play in the right??

I thought he played through the middle.

No idea mate. I’ve never saw him play

Although based on what i’ve read about him - it looks like be can play anywhere across the front 3.
I’ve read that on here so prob bull shït

There's weeks we will play it, especially against the deep lying defensive teams, definitely.

However, not against quality opposition.

You need the extra central midfielder then.

Yeah, very true mate.

MI5 aren't going to come after you.

Nah worse come after ye in this place. Lol.

Agreed. In reality Roofe and Itten will be fighting it out for a place in the 11 more often than not.

 

[Macca]

Hard one for me.

On his day I think Hagi scrapes it for me. Aribo is a player though.

See I would go the other way at the moment, aribo looks to have more end product at the minute. All about opinions!

I agree.

 

[StaunchCaravan]

If the CCTV guy is getting the police booting down his door tomorrow do we think he could be a trooper and get some footage of Itten as well??

 

[Christopher Moltisanti]

Being lazy here but maybe someone can confirm. Is there actually any substance to this or is it classic FF getting carried away?

 

[SC81]

Hard one for me.

This is the point of having a stronger XI and squad.

Not everyone can play every game.

Sometimes Aribo, sometimes Hagi and sometimes both.

This ...... Rotation is key to success , players aren’t robots.

 

[Laudrup11Cooper]

No!

Patience is a virtue.

 

[John MacKenzie]

Interesting,I know that we expect Alfie to go,but what if he doesn't?,we could scare the living daylights out of teams!.

A lot has been said about formations but remember SG came from a club who played fluid football,could this be in his thoughts?.

I tell you it's becoming scary when I think o

fook you

 

[Big Ainsley Harriott]

Hagi may be dropped then.

Are you steaming?

Yes, he’s at Auchenhowie.

If Roofe AND Itten come in, Morelos is offski.

Could see Kent, Itten and Roofe being front three and Hagi dropping to behind itten in midfield with Aribo and Jack as your two holding midfielder’s.

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Add an all-action CM to that and I'll be happy with what we have squad wise!

That's what id like too, a guy with strength & unlimited energy.

 

[Laudrup11Cooper]

If Roofe AND Itten come in, Morelos is offski.

That's ...a fair assumption.
Can we even risk Morelos on Thursday?

 

[Malcolm Tucker 37]

Wow it’s all go today then!!

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Looks good, doesn't it. Certainly for home games and a few of the aways. Though I'm not confident that's how Gerrard will do it.

Options are vital my friend
