Sadly no more to be said.Very likeable guy but deep down we all know he isn’t going to make it with us. I would be surprised if he actually makes a career in football, one injury after the other.

Was actually going to post this.Anyone who watched “Superstars’ back in the late 70s /early 80s knows this.

I think we're just being extremely careful with him at the moment, to avoid a recurrence of his problems.
You’re from Death Valley mate
Personally, I don’t think we have enough quality cover to allow to go on loan.
After Arfield, Jack and McCrorie, you’re bringing in Coulibaly or Halliday for now.
And as my original post said very impressive for a guy with the injury history he’s had to dateDocherty was top, but just ahead of Rossiter .
Tav was 3rd but a bit behind the 1st 2.
Of course Davis but, do you trust Dorrans’ fitness?Steve Davis..... ffs mate Dorrans is due back in about a month and by all accounts we are trying to sign Kamara this month as well. We have plenty of options for the middle of the park.
If he's been fit since October like it's been quoted and he hasn't featured in the SPL then I'd imagine this Cup game would be an ideal chance to get some game time.Why?

Aye fair point MU, hope the lad gets his chance and see what happens at some pointI get that mate, but Gerrard may want to use the game to ensure his first choice 11 get some match practice before we start a difficult section of league games.
I'm sure we'd all love him to come good & be poty asap
But realistically speaking - there are no signs that this is even remotely feasible right now
With all the best goodwill in the world he needs a minimum of a full 90 minutes for at least 6-10 games on the trot - without any reaction or issues - before we could in anyway rely on him - otherwise we're just keeping others out the team with all the disruption to our shape, organisation and continuity that a settled side brings
It's often said football has no place for sentiment- well much as it might pain me to say it - this applies to JR
We can't afford to give him the run of games he needs to become consistent - he needs to go out on loan - or regrettably moved on permanently
Gerrard said a while back he was going to ease rossitter in and build him up very, very slowly given he has barely kicked a ball in a few years. If I remember correctly he also said it would incredibly frustrating for the player but he was still young and the thought process has to be a long term one. Unless Gerrard's opinion on him has drastically changed them I'm going for option 1.If he has been fit since October then I only see two scenarios here.
1. He is being given time to build up strength and fitness before getting regular game time.
Or
2. His level of ability is reflected by the current pecking order, and players such as McCrorie, Jack, Arfield, Coulibaly etc. are simply better.
Time will tell I suppose.

I really feel sorry for him, he’s as talented a lad as anyone we have but I worry that the Scottish game with all the hammer throwers in it may be too dirty for him
I hope he gets game time in the second half of the season but no one will want to lose there place in the team so he might struggle for a start
Maybe we are just going slow, slow slow with him as important to give the kid and his body a period of stability. Get through this season, then a tough pre season and I'm hoping he's raring to go .When is his contract up?
Rotten patter.Its over, let it go
Bit harsh. Reasonable point with unreasonable criticism from you. Often injured prior to being signed; nothing surprising in that continuing. We have moved on as a club.I wish your time on here was over.

Nearly 3 years with practically nothing to show for it, yet Grezda has been torn down and written off after 6 months by a fair few. Why is that exactly?
For a support with whom many are so impatient and irrational, Rossiter seems to have gotten some special treatment.
If you take this view then you’re condemning us to paying his wages with little in return. I don’t see the problem with loaning him out now which may see him do well. If he does he’ll come back with essential experience and confidence to push on for the last year of his contract.Can't see a loan deal happening here he's been injured far too long. Plus you don't try to nurture someone back from a long injury by loaning them out. Surely we'd much rather manage that ourselves. My gut says he's going nowhere until his contract ends and we let him go.
I agree with this.I think a spell out on loan would be best all round here. He needs a run of 10-12 games to get his match fitness up, he’s not going to get that here. If he could get the opportunity to do that somewhere we would be much better placed to see if his body is up to the strain of playing week in week out.
I’d like to see a loan also.
Somewhere we trust, obviously, with a real set up, but I want to see him get 10-15 games on the trot.
Imagine an all firing Rossiter come June? :-0
He’s a great lad. Love to see him next to McCrorie at some point again soon. The tenacity and energy is first class.
Starts next game,
Of course Davis but, do you trust Dorrans’ fitness?
Kamara has yet to prove himself at Rangers and cannot be a better option than Rossiter until he does.
Kamara might be brilliant but playing for Rangers is another matter.Kamara has played regularly in this league, is obviously rated by our management team, has no fitness issues so I would suggest he is a better option than Rossiter!
Rossiter will hopefully get over his injury woes, but at the moment he isn't able to play 2 games in a row so he is an option that can't be relied upon!

Nice avatar lolSadly no more to be said.
Playing well for Dundee is a million miles away from being successful at Ibrox. So Kamara is nothing more than potential as yet. Hope it works out but let’s not over hype him.Kamara has played regularly in this league, is obviously rated by our management team, has no fitness issues so I would suggest he is a better option than Rossiter!

Rossiter being just behind Docherty in fitness takes some doing as Docherty was a 400m runner before he turned to football.
Rolls Royce of a player imho.
