I spent a half-hour reading match reports etc on the guy this afternoon. He has worked on protecting his defence, being more aggressive off the ball and generally upping his work rate. He was already skilled on the ball with the ability to dribble past players to launch attacks. This has let him influence games much more and he has been their main man this season so far.
Decent stats that albeit I've no idea of the real standard of the league he's in.
Nothing like Thomson.
And how may times have you watched him?
Someone talking sense.
I work for a championship club and have seen a lot of him, nothing like Kevin Thomson
Who would you say he plays like in our side at the moment mate?
Do you rate him? Do you think he would do a job for us? Do you think he can improve further? Is the police guy still alive at the end of Squid Game??
5 mins of YouTube video is enough to confirm that mate.
Just because you work in finance for Bournemouth doesn't mean you'll have seen much of Rothwell.
All the clips since he was linked, waltzes past players with ease, Thomson never ever done that.
I would say Thomson was a bit of an enforcer (not in a derogatory way), with huge energy levels and he was neat in possession. Is this fella a ball winner? His YT video makes him look more of a box to box and very skilful.
Wisnae even a good defeat.
Yes it’s literally my job to watch football games, wasn’t Kevin Thomson a deep lying ball winner?
He actually looks shite
I haven’t seen Mbappe play but would take him on a bosman next season
I’d say arfield personally
Appreciate your response.
What would you say about Joe Rothwell mate ? His skills and qualities ? And previously I’ve seen us closely linked to Jed Wallace of Millwall who I’d understood might be similar to JR , is that fair and if so which of the two would you favour IF we had the choice . Thanks .

Top man, thanks for the insight. Are there any other players in the Championship you would be happier about us signing?
I’m the few games I’ve seen of rothwell he’s full of energy good runner with and without the ball, like arfield but more aware of his centre mid duties. Jed Wallace is a good player think he would be a very reliable squad player for us and a good signing if wages weren’t too high
From what I’ve seen of Jed Wallace I like him quite a lot I wondered if he would be the guy to come in as the right MF player mate .
Aye OK.
If you like your own voice then fair enough. Others put their point forward and don't care about the idiots who try and brow beat them, or better yet - they care little for the idiots that can't think for themselves and just follow the idiot before them.
Watching the clips of him he has great feet and carries the ball well.
Both Rothwell and Wallace are good players and would play different positions. I’d be happy to see both sign. Wallace would shine for us and our style. Rothwell would fit right in, he has that bit about him that you need at Rangers.
Which roles would you see those players starting in mate ?
I’d like to see what Wallace is made of when given a bit of a free number 10 type role plus he can play left or right really. Rothwell is a tough one, he seems to have such a perfect attitude to work at and develop many styles. It does seem though Beale and Gerrard like having CM that can do everything, Rothwell is that type of guy. He’ll run box to box but he’ll also be tactical and smart. Hard to really put definite position down with this Rangers system as players like Aribo etc can be used out of their best positions in a midfield structure. Rothwell won’t have an out of position, he’ll own most positions asked to play, IMO. Though, I’m not ever an expert and we could sign both and they both end up balls for us or have the hatchet men cripple them which is very likely up here on a wet winters evening.
everyone we sign can't be looked at as a sell on signing. we have to buy players who'l do the job. regardless of worth in contract. SG and staff know far more about this lad than any on here do. i'l trust their judgement for sure.
Could be though don’t have a clue.
Rangers will probably sign him on a free and he will then spend several months getting up to speed ie Bacuna
What is an average player. If Messi is 10, Ronaldo &Neymar etc 9.5, Salah & Lewandowski 9, then a huge number will be below average. Many of whom are excellent players.
