ian1964 10,724 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 RANGERS have completed a loan deal for Liverpool midfielder Ovie Ejaria. SportTimes can reveal the 20-year-old has agreed a season-long switch to Ibrox to be reunited with former Reds coach Steven Gerrard. Ejaria spent the second half of last term on loan at Sunderland and has now made the switch to Glasgow to gain more first team experience. The Englishman is Gerrard's fourth signing of the summer so far and is set to be followed into Ibrox by defender Connor Goldson after Rangers agreed a £3million fee with Brighton on Wednesday. http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/sport/rangers/16274133.Rangers_clinch_loan_deal_for_Liverpool_midfielder_Ovie_Ejaria/ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malangsob 1,264 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) I absolutely love the Goldson signing. Ejaria is a mixed bag and is definitely a young, work in progress. This kid is big and STRONG. He has deceptive speed at the top end and distributes the ball well. He has good vision and plays head up ball. However, he appears at times to show a low work rate and is a bit of a 'goonie bird', in that he seems like a boy in a man's body with his loping running style and lack of agility. We shall see...hopefully. OE Edited June 6, 2018 by Malangsob 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,378 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Hopefully not another Oduwa he had a loping style,carried out a wonderful "rainbow flick" against Alloa but quickly disappeared. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I had hoped Gerrard would be focusing more on players abroad, than players in the UK. We've found very limited value from the English leagues recently. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words all transfer dealings.... Maybe it is just because Ian is from the East Coast and reading is a bit of an issue over there...... just kidding Ian 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMAA 3,658 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Reports are that Liverpool have got him to sign a long term contract with them. Disappointing in that there’s no prospect of signing him when the year is up but very encouraging that they obviously think he’s the real deal. They are probably willing to send him to us both to do Gerrard a favour but also because they want him playing on the front foot rather than fighting any more relegation battles. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
