Is this guy on crack or what? VLADIMIR WEISS insists Neil Lennon's touchline antics have fired Rangers up for the title run-in. Weiss watched Sunday's Old Firm showdown from a seat among the Ibrox fans as he continues his recovery from the broken foot that has effectively brought an early end to his season-long loan from Manchester City. And the 21-year-old swears "his team-mates" will be more determined than ever to cling on to the SPL crown after Lennon's latest wind-up on Sunday. Before disappearing up the tunnel the Celtic boss cupped two hands to his ears in a gesture of defiance to the Rangers fans who had booed him throughout. It was his way of letting off steam after another week of trauma off the field and he insisted it was just a bit of "humour". But Weiss is one of a number of Rangers players who have had run-ins with Lennon and he believes Walter Smith's men have just been supplied with added motivation to drag themselves over the line. Weiss said: "It seems to me he'll do what he wants to do - nothing can stop him. "It fires us up when we see some of the things he does - making gestures to our fans or whatever." Weiss was involved in the tunnel flashpoint during the Scottish Cup tie which infuriated the Ibrox hierarchy in February. Chief executive Martin Bain insisted that incident was behind the rising of tensions between the two rivals which escalated again at the replay at Parkhead when three Rangers players were sent off and Lennon clashed with Ally McCoist. Both clubs were then dragged up to Holyrood for a shame-game summit. Weiss, speaking for the first time about that furious bust-up, revealed he used it as his inspiration behind his match-turning cameo role in Rangers' League Cup Final victory over Celtic in March. He said: "If I had heard him saying anything to me I would probably have said something back. But I didn't hear anything. "It was only when I got into the dressing room that my team-mates told me something had been said. If that's how he wants to behave that's up to him. "But the League Cup Final was payback from me to him." http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/footba...ys-rangers-ace-vladimir-weiss-86908-23087351/ Can I just say **** off you stupid wee boy. What a ****ing cretin.
Weiss has been an almighty flop. A player who has aspirations to play for a top 6 EPL side really should be able to hold down an automatic starting place in a Rangers squad that's hardly overflowing with quality wide players. Yet he started only 2 of 10 european games and 1 of 7 OF games all season. Incidentally of those 3 'big' games Weiss actually started, Rangers failed to win any (and lost 2)
I find Weiss a very frustrating player to watch. He undoubtedly has talent, but needs to learn that football is a team game. Too often he tries to beat 3 or 4 players and ends up losing the ball, when a simple pass to a team mate would have been a lot more effective. please log in to view this image
