McCrorie

[Jjbscotty]

Was listening to rangers radio archives from Friday night and two of the guys on there are saying that they are hearing that he will be sold in the summer, has anyone else heard this? I really hope he’s not going to be moved on.

 

[DaveC]

Not a chance, a loan is possible depending on where he is in the pecking order with new signings and loans returning.

Can’t see him being sold.

 

[Axelrod]

Not a chance of this

 

[Dalmuirbear]

I doubt very much that anyone will know what our future plans are for Ross out-with the management team.

 

[Necro]

Not against the idea of him going out on loan but selling him at this stage of his career would be unforgivable

 

[mustn’t grumble]

Incorrect. Mccrorie is a future captain. He’ll benefit from a season long loan in a top league somewhere next season, then he’ll return to be our first choice CDM.

 

[bornabluenose]

Can't see him being sold ,definitely would be open to a loan deal .

I like McCrorie he has the minerals to make it at Ibrox ,he now needs to kick on on the football side.

 

[Slickrick]

Loan is no use for McCrorie. He needs to learn and watch from Davis with a view to later taking over. Davis moves the ball quick and well and finds little passes to get things moving.

 

[Necro]

Loan is no use for McCrorie. He needs to learn and watch from Davis with a view to later taking over. Davis moves the ball quick and well and finds little passes to get things moving.

He's been doing that this season, he needs to be playing regularly in order to improve

 

[The Royal Standard]

Cant see him being sold at all , neither he should be

 

[bilkobear]

If he goes out on loan I would like to think it was to a country like Holland.

 

[Square and compass]

Imo we should have tried harder to keep bates who is no worse that soutarr.
And no need to fork out 2 million.
So i hope they dont go down the same road with mcrorie.
The likes off docherty, rossister, hardie and mccrorie should be given runs in the team before any knee jerk reactions.
They have 10 years plus of football left in their careers

 

[Bigbluebear]

He needs to get better with the ball. If he doesnt then hes no use to us.

 

[Zander73]

I’d give him a go for another season. If nothing else he’s decent cover. I honestly think we’d kick ourselves if we let him go now

 

[High Society]

He needs to get better with the ball. If he doesnt then hes no use to us.

Don’t be ridiculous, he’s a winner, great in the air, strong in the tackle and quick. He stands up to be counted when it matters, Parkhead, Pittodrie, Easter Road. He’s EXACTLYNwht we need in a scrap.
We’ve got enough footballers in the middle.

 

[A1bertz]

He needs to get better with the ball. If he doesnt then hes no use to us.

Is he gonna learn that now?

 

[kilbirnie bear]

No point going out on loan.We’ll need a decent size squad,with decent quality,if we have another run in Europe like this season

McCrorie should be a important part of the squad

 

[mad4rfcme]

He is my choice as our future captain.

 

[Yer da]

A loan to another team in our division would be beneficial for both parties.

 

[CooperSF]

Hearts are crying out for that sort of player.

 

[freddie_crawford]

I still think he’s better as a centre half than a midfielder

 

[ald]

I find it very hard to get a good read on what the future holds for McCrorie. I recognise that he has real qualities. That said, I struggle a bit to see where he fits in to a Rangers team on a long term basis. I just don’t see us playing the next 5 / 10 years with a mainstay central midfield player who is quite as defensive as McCrorie. I am just not convinced that a 30 / 40 game a year Rangers central midfielder doesn’t need to have more to him going forward than McCrorie offers. Is he really going to be happy playing 20 / 30 games a year, in the role of occasional starts predominantly away from home or against bigger top 6 type teams at Ibrox plus substitute appearances where we want to hold what we have? I wouldn’t be altogether surprised to see him sold in the summer. Nor would I be surprised to see him go on and have a really successful career at a club where that defensive holding role is much more important week in week out than it is at Rangers.

Like who ?

 

[Tomted]

Hope that the selling Ross McRorie is now true. He is both useful and versatile. He can fill in more than adequately in central defence, midfield and right back. With the number of games we hope to be involved in both here and in Europe, Ross McRorie will be invaluable.

 

[BRaven]

If he goes out on loan I would like to think it was to a country like Holland.

Agreed.

It would be a wise move to try and move a lot of our youth prospects there although I suspect Scottish players are well down the pecking order with regards to keeping them at a decent level there which would improve their game.

Their youth system is lightyears above our dinosaur game.

 

[Rfclee]

SG not so long ago was saying he's the future of Rangers and a future captain. Highly doubt he will go anywhere

 

[chilebear]

Can’t see it to be honest.

I’d say Rossiter and Docherty will be for the off

 

[Bouncebackability]

I’ll be avoiding listening to that station then if that’s what they are coming out with.

 

[derbyloyal]

Hearts are crying out for that sort of player.

Was just thinking that myself.

 

[High Society]

Like who ?

Davies, Arfield, Kamara, Dorrans,

Do you watch Rangers?

 

[Arkanoid]

I heard from Gerrard's own mouth that he sees him as a future Rangers captain which I'll take over any rumour nonsense

 

[Blackpool Dave]

Don’t be ridiculous, he’s a winner, great in the air, strong in the tackle and quick. He stands up to be counted when it matters, Parkhead, Pittodrie, Easter Road. He’s EXACTLYNwht we need in a scrap.

A man who takes no prisoners

 

[Yankeeger]

Davies, Arfield, Kamara, Dorrans,

Do you watch Rangers?

You clearly don't go to games or watch the games on the telly

Just to advise Dorrans hasn’t played for about 10 month

Never heard of Davies , is he a new signing?

Arfield jury is out on what type of midfielder we think or want him to be

Kamara only in the door and looks promising but so did Coulibaly

Your point is ?

 

[BrownBrogues]

Absolutely no chance

Who’s airfield is he a new signing?

 

[Recoba]

I heard that on Rangersradio aswell, they are saying he has asked to leave due to lack of game time.

Hopefully not

 

[orjan_persson]

Quite.

 

[orjan_persson]

Who’s airfield is he a new signing?

He's been a runway success this season.

 

[JMCK]

If he can't hold on to the ball, either when has it himself or in the pass then he won't make it at Rangers; this is basically the midfielder's role. That result and performance yesterday is the case in point, of a team controlling the ball in midfield, mainly. I can't see McCrorie leaving, but it wouldn't surprise my either. Gerrard wants players who are good footballers first and foremost; I'm not convinced he is a fan of Ross.

Kante isn’t great at passing and he’s the best DM in the world.

 

[Crouchy]

McCrorie will captain Rangers in the next 5 years.

We should not be even contemplating selling the guy.

 

[Nerf Herder]

He's a centre half, that's where we need to play him.

 

[JMCK]

Kante isn’t great at passing and he’s the best DM in the world.

I looked at Kante's Wikipedia page, and it contradicts what you say, in fact it compliments his distribution among his great many other attributes.

I watched him plenty and his passing isn’t great.

 

[JMCK]

I watched him plenty and his passing isn’t great.

In your opinion, but there's no way he will play at the very top level if he can't pass.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

What we can't do is leave him out for 6/8 weeks and bring him in from the cold in a massive game.

Some times it's not muscle you need but composure, a calming influence.

Kamara should have started ahead of McCrorie at the piggery.

 

[JCDarcheville]

Sold! Surely not.

I still think he’s better as a centre half than a midfielder

This - 100%. He will only ever be a central midfield specialist for particular games when we think we need his battle in midfield. His use of the ball and awaresness isn’t strong enough with the game all around him.

He has all the attributes of a top quality centre half (power, pace, tackling, aerial ability), and his use of the ball with the game infront of him is excellent.

He is too good a player to be sitting on the bench all year except for tough away fixtures in Europe and at parkhead and Pittodrie. I think he should be playing at centre half every week, unless we move him to the middle for particular games.

He can be a future capatain of Rangers but to be that, he needs to be in the team every week first. I’m not convinced that ever happens in central midfield.

 

[standardbarger]

If he goes out on loan I would like to think it was to a country like Holland.

Don't want him on loan to any team we can do with him here he is real good player, to good to go on loan.

 

[Tamson]

I'd be playing McCrorie next week against the sheep. He's shown some of his best performances against them. While Kamara has been impressive I don't think he showed up well in the previous 2 games in the cup.

 

[KopGer]

The notion that he’s asked to leave is utter shite.

Unheralded, irrelevant media outlet in pish talk for hits and credibility shocker.
