Our team is disjointed in terms of ability at the moment. But 4 or 5 decent championship quality players and the likes of faurlin, hall, robinson ect will shine even more next season when they are surrounded by other players of their level.

Put a young hungry, tenacious ball winning midfielder next to him and I think faurlins ability will be realised more. Going forward with polter up top most games we have got a striker for him to thread through balls onto.

Originally posted by nasser95 View PostNo no what I mean is that had he not gotten that injury, he'd have really carried us as a team to a much higher position. Remember that season was Barton's worst for us, Faurlin there with Derry or him would have elevated us well above where we were. The work he put in at the time was truly phenomenal and it's a testament to his ability and character that despite the setbacks, his work ethic hasn't changed.

Originally posted by Rangers77 View PostGood lad and all of that, squad player, sure, shame about the injuries, but we really need more end product than five assists from corners all season. I might be bring greedy, but s hit I need something."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value.

Originally posted by klonk View Postnot sure about that. faurlin could be relatively easily worked out. remember how watford exploited his weaknesses during promotion season... would have happened over and over in the prem, imo."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value.

Seems like some of us view him differently. Personally I think he's quality and don't understand why some don't think the same. All my non rangers mates who watch us often reckon he's our best player and easily prem quality!Last edited by SuperHoopNik; 05-05-2016, 12:08 AM."When you went to the corner and saw our fans celebrating the way they were you just wanted to be part of it" - Shaun Derry after we beat the scum 1-0

Originally posted by nasser95 View PostI think you're looking at him as a more creative player, when in truth, he's a ticker. He keeps the ball moving, gets the ball to those around him, pings it around the park and tends to play the 3rd or 4th pass from the chance created. I think you'll see a lot more of Luongo next season. Playing anywhere from CDM to CAM, only 4 players have made more assists from open play than him this season in this division. If we consider non crossing assists as well since he's central, no one has made more than his 6 assists from the centre. This all playing only 26 games this season. When he gets consistent game time, he'll do a lot more for sure.

Originally posted by James1979 View PostThis ticker type player works at high level in Spain but in the championship? Not for me. Need players with some pace and no team has quality to retain possession consistently. I'd keep him as s back up but of we have serious intentions of improving, he shouldn't be in the team.
If we are looking to retain him, has to be very low wages as a squad player as someone has already said.

Squad player yes can see logic of that but if he's first team player expect similar season to this next season
