Couldn't tell you about himThe same level Shane Duffy has made 96 appearances at?

Apparently he's only on £8k a week..but basically an English championship standard playerwould never be abel to afford him
Who does he play for?You'll get Cained for that, mate.
We need to address a potential problem in midfield.I love the man but he can't continue playing the volume of games he is currently. We need to maintain progression and need to look longer term.
It's hard to compare any of our midfield to him who play the likes of Kilmarnock every other week. You could compare our European exploits to Sheff Utd playing Liverpool etcTrue, but Jack, Kamara and Davis are of a higher quality than Fleck.
Spending serious dough on a 30 year old certainly isn't our business model either.
That means he won’t play for rangers again imoFleck is coming up 30 this year so probably too old to spend a big transfer fee on, plus his contract doesn't expire until 2023, he starts for Sheff Utd so they probably wouldn't be interested in a loan deal.
Eve n if that was true. Not worth it IMO.Adam sight more.
His talent is Biblical.Who does he play for?
Any video footage?
Fleck has the knowledge of the Scottish game, Duffer didn'tSo did Duffy.
So was big Marv's, get him signed.His talent is Biblical.
So did Duffy.
With God on his side, he can't fail.So was big Marv's, get him signed.
He can obviously still play when injured, it's a no brainer.

I've not watched Duffy. I watch Sheffield Utd quite a bit, Fleck is more than capable of being a good box to box for us
He isn’t what we need and we won’t be signing him.Fleck has the knowledge of the Scottish game, Duffer didn't
Just seems a natural replacement. Would cost a few bob granted. Would be good fit though.
Possible?
Fair enoughTbf to Fleck, he is surrounded by vastly inferior teammates than our midfielders are.
Anyway, as I previously said, it's totally against our business model to spend money on someone of that age.
Fair enough mateI actually agree with you, the point I was making is that just because a player plays in a better league than the SPL, doesnt mean they'd walk it up here
Hahaha if you say so mateHe isn’t what we need and we won’t be signing him.
That to me sounds like a better option. They obviously know that we MUST have a planned succession for Davis and Arfield and so I assume they’re on the case. We need to ask ourselves is Davis up to playing Champions League and then league games in same week?Fleck is closing in on 30 and would cost an absolute fortune.
Ryan Gauld would be a better shout. He's became one of the best players in Portugal outside of the big 4 and is available for free at the end of the season. He is 25 and can play as both an attacking and sitting midfielder. He has a good range of passing and vision. He could be molded into that sitting playmaker role. He'd also count as homegrown in nation.
I’m guessing the young boy from Bournemouth is seen as the successor to a Davis.Just seems a natural replacement. Would cost a few bob granted. Would be good fit though.
Possible?
Keep forgetting who we have out on loan, and where they playing. Would be good to find out how these loanees are doingWe have a lad on loan to Arbroath who in a couple of seasons could be SD replacement Ben Williamson
I mean Davis has shown with the Europa League he can handle it, however he is 36 and 6-12 months is a long time in football especially to someone Davis age.That to me sounds like a better option. They obviously know that we MUST have a planned succession for Davis and Arfield and so I assume they’re on the case. We need to ask ourselves is Davis up to playing Champions League and then league games in same week?
I trust that our scouting department will have options ready to put to Stevie G.
I think we may have to put sentiment to the side this summer as SG is tasked with getting us ready for the CL so it may be that we lose people and replace people that we like.
Did you clock him on loan at Hivs, was woeful at Ibrox and still looked like a 16 year old boy out of his depth. Hagi is younger and looks far more of a talent right now let alone what he'll become, forward steps not backwards steps. The homegrown quota is a fallacy as Gerrard has repeatedly been happy to take a reduced squad in Europe than have Scottish dross bulking his squadFleck is closing in on 30 and would cost an absolute fortune.

He's playing well and if Faranse manage to stay up it will be all thanks to him. 7 goals and 4 assists. He scored a beautiful back heel recently.Have you seen him play recently, I'd love to read about how he's getting on. I think I remember an article posted on here recently but I am not sure if it was about his recent form.
Does he get a game for Scotland?
We cain only trywould never be abel to afford him
The midfield 3 compliment well and Fair play to Wilder as well making attacking subs as soon as going behind, just a shame McBurnie has a toblerone heid or we could have had a cracker on the cardsFleck has been outstanding in this 2nd half. Him and Norwood are streets ahead of their teammates.
So you think we will?Hahaha if you say so mate
And i think when he knows he is losing his pace he will be the first person to admit it.Davis is playing the best football I’ve ever seen him play. He’s going no where
Doubt itSo you think we will?
Gauld is a cm and Hagi plays RAM/CAM. Not really comparable in like for like.Did you clock him on loan at Hivs, was woeful at Ibrox and still looked like a 16 year old boy out of his depth.

If he's that good Porto, Benfica or Sporting would have signed him up on a Bosman then? I'd take him on my 5s side but never for RangersGauld is a cm and Hagi plays RAM/CAM. Not really comparable in like for like.
So you wouldn't take a player on a free who is doing very well in a superior league, because a couple of years ago he was poor in a 6 month spell at Hibs?
I'd rather judge the player he is now than the player he was 2 years ago.
Sporting and Braga are after him.If he's that good Porto, Benfica or Sporting would have signed him up on a Bosman then? I'd take him on my 5s side but never for Rangers
Correct.Apart from his final season where I’m sure he picked up an injury before loan to us, he was anything but a squad player
The talk is he is sighing for Braga in the summer, has the most MOTM awards in the league so far and the most creative player out with the big 3.If he's that good Porto, Benfica or Sporting would have signed him up on a Bosman then? I'd take him on my 5s side but never for Rangers
A No from me.Just seems a natural replacement. Would cost a few bob granted. Would be good fit though.
Possible?
YesIs this same Fleck who played for us?
Same name, entirely different player.Is this same Fleck who played for us?
We could Cain the credit card!would never be abel to afford him
Hooked Erskine BearSame name, entirely different player.
That won't happen.Just seems a natural replacement. Would cost a few bob granted. Would be good fit though.
