Niko

[Mem]

Anyone know if he's been training this week?

When injured he indicated he would be out for only a week - he's creativity is crucial to us

[West Acton]

Don't know but Tom Carroll is back training

Really? With us or spuds?

Not sure assuming us. He tweeted he was pleased to have his boots back on and be training

[Mem]

Think he's 'running' only and not in full training - reckon he's a couple of weeks away yet

[Kevin Mcleod]

Not convinced Niko is crucial to us to be honest . Thought he has been very lacklustre after his debut by what ive seen, think we miss carroll much more

[UpperP]

Think NK will be crucial this season & if we get promoted, which I am confident/hopeful of. Hope Caroll comes good as seems to be rated by HR & also England U21's. Us Rangers fans are a bit lively to slaughter players if they don't score a hat trick in their 1st game.

Agreed - both Carroll and Niko will be crucial to our success

[Kevin Mcleod]

I honestly dont think niko could hack in the premiership anymore. How many games has he bossed and how many did he last without pulling up?
Short sharp fix for us that was/is a bit of a gamble imho.

[Mem]

Maybe true re the premiership but niko is different class in the championship

[Buffalo]

Niko seems to be the only player we have that is capable of getting a shot on target from any sort of distance. We can't just rely on Austin/Jenas tap-ins & penalties for the rest of the season. Not without some more/better support at least.

Maybe MP can add something if given a decent run.

Im not totally doubting his ability, i just think hes had it injury wise. When he comes back i wouldnt be at all suprised if he only lasts another five games.

Hasnt been match fit for ages and still isn't. He only played about 15 times last season so it is gonna take some time before he gets back to his best. We've already seen glimpses of this.

[Kevin Mcleod]

Got to play to get fit, he seems to break down every time he plays a handful of games. (going by what ive read)

I disagree about niko. Hes got better and better since his debut imo (bar the burnley game). Agree about carroll though, we have missed him.
