Spend a lot of time in Glasgow been sounding out an old Rangers supporting mate who knows a bit about the game.
Rangers tended to play him as a winger but my mate reckons he's very like Sterling in that he's difficult to bracket where his best position is.
Incredibly talented, confident in his ability and full of tricks with blistering pace.
However very naive and obvious he hasn't played a lot of (I hate the term) but Mens football.
Very lightweight started sensationally but was sussed out and basically bullied.
Coming in January Rangers didn't have time to allow him to develop and get used to the physicality so got increasingly less game time.
He thinks he could be sensational for us but will need to get used to week in week out physicality.
Cheers mate, cracking insight.
 
Wasn’t mannone linked last summer too? Not against it like
Been saying for a while we need a 3rd keeper. Not many clubs have only 2 in their first team squad these days.

If Tony has switched us to Vito canny first present from him to the fans mind. Was always popular Vito. Patterson unlikely to be ousted, but a good fella to learn from in training.
 
Ba and Diallo all done
Been fully behind the clubs policy of bringing in young talent
Resigned to looking at Premier academy cast off's who we can revitalize.
No problem with that good sustainable model
But the level of these 3 lads is off the scale
Diallo cost Man U something like £20m and Michut has played in the same team as bloody Messi and Neymar
Recruitment team should be getting a lot of praise for this.

Our recruitment is absolutely slated by some people, I just don't get how people can be so relentlessly miserable.
