McCoist "Jota's a genius"

[sir_walter_smith]

Has one of the worst haircuts in Scottish football but Jota will end up fetching them a fortune.

Is that before or after a sell on % is deducted?

 

[McCoist’sTinHat]

He’s average at best. A complete sand dancer, hence why he’s playing there and not at a club who are capable of competing in Europe.

Utter nonsense.

He’s a very good player. Yes, he’s a bit tippy tappy and loves a stepover, but he’s a Portuguese winger so what do you expect.

He’s got an end product, scores goals and puts in dangerous crosses. That doesn’t mean I won’t back our full backs to stop him when we play them.

To completely ignore he was a big part of them winning the league last season is blinkered.

 

[Loud and proud]

Ally is everyones friend.

 

[Larkhall_Exile]

Ally McCoist in breathless Jota 'genius' verdict as legend admits Rangers 'one of these days' worries​

Leave it out!

Ally, you're my brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.

 

[Timardim]

He wrote Careless Whisper at 17, what have you ever done?

He was 21 when he jointly wrote it along with Andrew Ridgely .

 

[sr1983]

I can't remember the last time I was this angry about something.

 

[PartizanGit]

He wrote Careless Whisper at 17, what have you ever done?

Not hung around in public toilets looking for sex, hopefully.

 

[Timardim]

Super Ally , You'd think he would know better by now.....

 

[1972 bear]

McCoist in talking shite shocker!!!

 

[Alfred Blair]

He’s talking about him like he’s George Best.

Aye, he’s a good player but he’s not a genius.

He is that good he's back at the scum as nobody wanted him

 

[jayd1872]

I love Ally but he has always went way over the top in his praise for that mob and over critical of our players. No point in getting heartburn over it he's not going to change now

 

[Spart7]

I love Ally but he has always went way over the top in his praise for that mob and over critical of our players. No point in getting heartburn over it he's not going to change now

In that regard he is no different to a fair number of posters on here.

 

[Malsie1872]

I'm shocked that a Rangers man would say...

"I was looking forward to watching Celtic yesterday, and I did, I enjoyed them"

Yep.Cant understand that

 

[Blue and white ‘75]

No need to fawn over George Michael by calling him a genius.

%^*& that.

Let’s be honest , we wish we had signed him

 

[William Cutting]

"breathless verdict"

 

[MilngavieLoyal]

He is that good he's back at the scum as nobody wanted him

Are you saying he’s not a good player?

 

[OnTheWay]

Everybody's best pal

 

[Grizzly_Bear]

Let’s be honest , we wish we had signed him

I don't, wouldn't contemplate swapping him for Ryan Kent, or Rabbi Matondo, on what I've seen so far.
Let's see how this season pans out, but I think Gio has their number and Jota's not troubled us much to date.

 

[Cooper_11]

Good player, yes.
Genius, no.
Ally’s playing mind games calling him a genius when he knows fine well he’s not.

 

[20rangersultras07]

I don't, wouldn't contemplate swapping him for Ryan Kent, or Rabbi Matondo, on what I've seen so far.
Let's see how this season pans out, but I think Gio has their number and Jota's not troubled us much to date.

Since gio came in, they’ve beat us more than we’ve beat them and Jota has also scored against us

 

[Mr. T.]

Genius is stretching it, very good player admittedly

Going by a couple of interviews, he also seems to be a decent, respectful young man.

 

[Sandbear]

McCoist in hyperbole moment , who would have thunk it

 

[Grizzly_Bear]

Since gio came in, they’ve beat us more than we’ve beat them and Jota has also scored against us

I'm talking about the last couple of games, once the team started gelling under Gio.
We'll see, but I don't think they're anywhere near the team that they, and a few on here, think they are.

 

[Alex_Bear]

Few on here seem desperate for posters to praise bheast players, then get all offended when they don't. It's a rangers forum ,Fkin oddballs.

 

[Kris1872]

No denying the wee dick is a good player but let’s see how the “genius” gets on in the UCL. A genius would be capable of tearing up brilliant defenders. Just can’t see it with Jota.

 

[Professor Yaffle]

If any of us came on here and proclaimed any current Celtic player a genius we would get utterly slaughtered.

What is his IQ out of interest

 

[irvine96]

He's probably Celtics best player but no way is he a genius

 

[Barryhopez]

Good player, yes.
Genius, no.
Ally’s playing mind games calling him a genius when he knows fine well he’s not.

So it's not what McCoist is saying, it's what he isn't saying?! Reading between the lines, McCoist has Celtic on the run...

Like a hark back to 2013.

 

[Bluepixie]

The good thing about his goal at the weekend is that he will now be trying that every time he gets within 30 yards of goal. No lay-offs to better positioned teammates. Row Z 98 times out of a 100.

 

[Now and forever]

Ally likes to show how impartial he is

 

[RSEA]

Woof

 

[Bluethruandthru]

Fucking embarrassing

Only word for it

 

[Blue and white ‘75]

Are you still saying that now

 

[Grizzly_Bear]

Are you still saying that now

Yes, one game isn't going to change that.

Are you at it?

 

[Blue and white ‘75]

Yes, one game isn't going to change that.

Are you at it?

Look i don’t like Jota because he plays for them, all I’m saying is if he didn’t I wished we’d signed him

 

[Grizzly_Bear]

Look i don’t like Jota because he plays for them, all I’m saying is if he didn’t I wished we’d signed him

I know what you said. If you love him that much, go to the shit-pit and watch the sand dancing fanny. You'll find it easier to get a ticket there than Ibrox.

 

[Torque_87]

Ally has to be everyone's pal in the media tbh.

 

[Nescafe_loyal]

He's what i want Kent to be. Runs takes a man on and scores goals. Kent runs takes a man on. Stops and takes him on again lol

Genius though. Bolt ally

 

[Business_Bear]

Everyone's mate by the way Woodsy!

 

[Brissy Bear]

I don't, wouldn't contemplate swapping him for Ryan Kent, or Rabbi Matondo, on what I've seen so far.
Let's see how this season pans out, but I think Gio has their number and Jota's not troubled us much to date.

I'd have him over Matondo for sure.
I think Kent is a better player, however Jota does seem to have the goals/assists that Kent doesn't.

 

[MeanMachine69]

So is that rat sutton and he would never make such comment about 1 of us

Sutton said Lundstram was phenomenol last season I remember. Hartson was heaping praise on Matondo and Lawrence last week. Obvs on their day off from being bitter tramps.

 

[derbyloyal]

Ally is widely accepted in England (where, rightly or wrongly, no one gives 2 f*cks about Scottish football) as the best pundit going on account of his enthusiasm and love for the game. Folk absolutely love him down here.

The entity he loves the most and is most enthusiastic about is Rangers FC. One only has to see footage of him during our European run last season to know this to be true.

He's arguably the greatest striker in our history. No explanation needed.

His leadership in and around 2012 gave heart and hope to so many. His managerial exploits in the lower leagues can be questioned, but when it was all falling apart it was him and Sandy Jardine who kept us together.

Why must we constantly find reason to slag him off? He is, and always will be, an absolute hero to me.

 

[Grizzly_Bear]

I'd have him over Matondo for sure.
I think Kent is a better player, however Jota does seem to have the goals/assists that Kent doesn't.

Maybe give Matondo 5 minutes before writing him off

 

[Brissy Bear]

Maybe give Matondo 5 minutes before writing him off

Should have clarified "at the moment".
I like look of Matondo, but one has so far proven he can cope in our league. Hopefully Matondo kicks on and does same.

 

[TW14]

For me, the most dangerous offensive player in the league.
