Always good to see a player bashing thread, thought I’d accidentally went into Kerrydale for a second ffs.

Agree, it's frustrating. Every day on here we're discussing how we should loan this or that player out to another club to get him up to speed after an injury, or to get experience for a young player, and here we are going to have Hagi coming back without having made any progress at all in the past season. Similar with Lowry's spell at Hearts.very frustrating indeed when he's a player we could do with getting back to fitness and form next season. why even loan players to these teams if they're just going to bench them.
we should do what liverpool do with loans and have minimum amounts of gametime stipulated or they pay significantly more for the loan
In the modern game you need pace which he lacks but he’s not as slow as people are making out
The lad is a very good footballer and has a good football brain and imo should be given a chance under our manager

Between this and the Cantwell threadAlways good to see a player bashing thread, thought I’d accidentally went into Kerrydale for a second ffs.
People are absolutely obsessed with our players needing electric pace. Most of the time in our league there's absolutely nowhere to run to - just a penalty box packed full of defenders and all the pace in the world won't make any difference to getting through that.
I know who I would put my mortgage on in a 100 metre sprint and it wouldn’t be Hagi.
What gaps? They had every player in the penalty box ffsAnd when Killie came out at 2-1 down we had no pace to exploit the gaps with 10 men.
Don't know Cantwell would need to fit in a tint in his hair and an instragram post........
Who's your team playing on Sunday?Never rated Hagi that highly I must admit. He’s clearly got some ability but lacks the physical aspect of the game.
Put it this way I wouldn’t want him in my team for a game like Sunday
Once they leave they can’t get enough of them mate , I pointed this out on the “ big Eck gtf “ thread in 2006Is there any one folk on here actually like?
Cantwell is much better technically than hagi as well as also being a much better athlete, cantwell isn’t quick but he has got a burst of pace of 10 yards that hagi doesn’t have.You could apply that to Cantwell.
I actually think in a midfield 3 Hagi is a better option than Cantwell as he is a more stable player but there’s not much in it
Both are fatally flawed as they have no pace
Based on what?Looking forward to seeing how he comes through a pre season under PC, and whether he gives him a chance. Personally think he could be brilliant for us under him.

If Clement decides against keeping him this summer does that make him incompetent?Haven’t looked at the updates. Assume it’s usual nonsense
Hagi is a talented player who should be given the chance under a competent manager
If they win the title I’ll like a couple of themIs there any one folk on here actually like?
Ifs, buts and maybes. I’d rather make the call after a preseason with clement than Beale.If Clement decides against keeping him this summer does that make him incompetent?
I suspect Hagi will be sold to generate some funds. He may not even be given a chance to impress the manager.
Until the next game.If they win the title I’ll like a couple of them
Who has actually improved?Look at our players that the manager has improved in a shirt space of time.
Hagi tries like %^*& & is open to playing in a number of positions. I'd say it's a fair bet that given a Clement pre season he'd be a more than decent addition to a Rangers front line.
Against the scum. And in Europe we need pace against most of the rest we need technically players who can keep the ball and draw players to themPeople are absolutely obsessed with our players needing electric pace. Most of the time in our league there's absolutely nowhere to run to - just a penalty box packed full of defenders and all the pace in the world won't make any difference to getting through that.
I’m suggesting that there may not be much in the way of a pre season for him.Ifs, buts and maybes. I’d rather make the call after a preseason with clement than Beale.
So what, we’d won it by then anyway.You never watched the game they pushed out at 2-1 down.
Yeah, we basically need pace when we are playing counter attacking football.Against the scum. And in Europe we need pace against most of the rest we need technically players who can keep the ball and draw players to them

At the time of posting (March) virtually the whole squad had improved. Certainly over before PC was at the club.Who has actually improved?
He is, he has a better first touch and touch overall than hagi. He strikes a ball cleaner as well. He carries the ball a lot better as well.He's not much better technically at all.
What players has the manager improved? If they can't win on saturday it's arguable if he's improved anyone. Results have improved mostly down to a bit of belief but have the players improved enough to get us a title? Would you want to go with this same group next year and hope that Clement will improve them further?Look at our players that the manager has improved in a shirt space of time.

When I posted that reply (March) almost the entire squad had improved when compared with when PC 1st arrived.What players has the manager improved?

I sincerely hope (and believe) that decisions regarding players' futures will have been made long before pre-season.I’m suggesting that there may not be much in the way of a pre season for him.
It is guesswork, I’ll admit, but I think decisions will be made in advance of pre season who is going to be kept on and who isn’t.
We need to get rid of what we call the dead wood and Hagi falls into that category, IMO. He also has sell on value, something I think we’ll be looking to exploit, especially if we don’t make the CL.
I’ll be surprised therefore if Hagi turns up for training in June and Clement thinks, “Hang on, this kid has what it takes to be in my team” - I’m pretty sure he’ll have formed that opinion already if at all.
Nonsense that he was one of our best players last time we won the league, chipped in with a lot of assists and was looking like a very good player until he was injured. But I guess people forget a lot in a short time.What a lot of utter nonsense
If we're going to pull out the definitions of words then I think the whole forum might be fucked. But aye, he's a player who does things that other won't/or can't. He finds passes and space that others are either unable to or are uncapable of doing. He's not the best fit for the league, but I think he's shown that when fully fit and on form then he adds to the squad.Unique?
In what way?
Unique definition: Being the only one of it's kind.
Difference is that Steven Davis was a fast processor of the game, hagi is not. That’s why Davis played at the levels he did, because despite his lack of speed, his speed in which he processed the game meant it didn’t matter.All this about Hagi being slow, Steven Davis has never been the fastest, however if your gifted with a good footballing brain, and the knack of being in the right place right time? Included with Hagi, is also Lowrie, who unfortunately I don’t think will make it, we’ve had headless sprinters before and nothings came of them, Clement I do believe can turn a player round.
That can be countered by look at some of his goals came from out of the blue, personally I see his future going down a rabbit hole, be best if we can get some money and shake hands.Difference is that Steven Davis was a fast processor of the game, hagi is not.
