  1. He seems to have gone up a level at City. He was rated at Rangers but not at the same level as Lowry, King, etc. Obviously made the right choice to leave and unlike his brother Dapo, Dire seems to have the right attitude. Hopefully keeps developing and we could have some pace on the wings. Dire was was wanted by Spurs, Brugge and PSV in the summer, so he seems we'll rated. PSV at the minute are wonderkid central and are constantly signing top rated young players.
  2. He had a good game and could've scored. After a first start like that, I'll be shocked if he doesn't begin to play more.
  3. He had a big test aswell. Van Veen is a very tough ST to deal with. Bit of pace, strength, height and a lot of skill. I thought Van Veen gave him a bit of a hard time but King grew well into the game and had a decent game. I was surprised how good in the air King was. He did leap and strength training outwith the club before pre season began. It seems to have massive worked, he has came on leaps and bounds physically since the summer. It also shows how much he his working towards himself and the future. There are quite a few games before the World Cup break. So he should get a lot of first team games with Goldson and Souttar out until atleast the end of the World Cup. Sands is there but it seems King has shot passed him.
  4. Devine is eligible still aswell. McKinnon, Weston and others out on loan are also eligible. Bar McAussland and Fraser the Rangers team is fairly young and has quite a few 2006s. Outside of Doak it's an older Liverpool side. Stuff like that needs to be taken into consideration.
  5. If Liverpool keep wracking up the injures, he might be there sooner than most think. Ure I'm not sure about. He has decent technique but will take a poor touch at times. He has the build so there is every chance, but he just reminds me of another Rudden and Hardie. Decent at youth level but never making it at Rangers.
  6. Goldson off injured. Looks like he's done his thigh. Hopefully just a strain and not a tear. King on and could probably cement his place until the winter break, depending on the severity of Goldson's injury.
  7. English clubs can't sign pre contracts with players based in England. If they are under a certain age they also have to pay large compensation (in the millions)
  8. Yeah outside of drawing Turkey or Greece in Pot 3 it's the worst draw we could've got. Even then Georgia are an improving side with a top tier winger.
  9. King came on early in the second half for Rangers and had a solid game. He played a peach of a pass to Tav in the build up for Rangers 4th. It seems King has went ahead of Sands and became 3rd choice CB now. Hopefully he keeps developing and ousts Goldson next season.
  10. I really hope he doesn't end up at Celtic or Rangers (no chance of that lol). Going away from the UK and learning a different style would be great for him. That game against Ukraine will have definitely got him on the radar of a few clubs.
  11. Similar but McGregor had more successful loans at 23/24. McCrorie has sat in the stands at the same age. I honestly don't know why McCrorie hasn't been out on loan or just our straight out number 2. When we had that covid outbreak last season, he started in Europe and against Celtic keeping 2 clean sheets and playing well. Then he was never seen again. He's clearly rated by both Rangers and Scotland but unless he has been promised to be number 1, it seems a strange career decision to stay with Rangers. I hope it works out and he becomes Rangers and Scotland number 1 but at the minute I don't see it working that way.
  12. McGregor started breaking in at mid 24 but was always dropped by PLG for Letzi when he was fit. Once PLG went he became number 1. That was roughly when he turned 25.
  13. He was solid. Passing looked a lot better than it did under Gemmell against NI u21. I said at the last squad I'd have King in the squad as a 6th choice CB. No need for him to play but he will learn a lot playing and training with top players. Also integrates him early into the squad and get used to everything and everyone. He's going to be a top player. Because he's been talked about for so long. People forget King's only 18. King was one of Rangers only bright lights today. King has been rated the best prospect at Ibrox since he was a kid. Rated higher than Gilmour and Patterson, which says a lot. My 5/6 CBs would be McKenna, Hendry, Porteous, King, Tierney. Then 1/2 of Hanley, Souttar, Cooper, Kingsley.
  14. He did well. Nice technique and link play. Conner Allan was Rangers only shining light. Looked very solid at CB. Good technique and read the game well.
