Should Steven Gerrard go for controversial signing?
Article by: Richard
Steven Gerrard is demanding that his new
Rangers team will be more mobile, stronger, aggressive, faster, fitter,
versatile and extremely competitive. He feels that by changing the way his team
play, he will be in a better position to stop Celtic’s domination and bring the
glory days

back to Ibrox.
He has made a superb start to his managerial

Rangers and other top teams, have been linked
with a move for this strong, talented, aggressive, versatile and extremely
competitive midfielder.

McGinn is still only 23-year-old and is in
his final year of his contract with Hibs, and with an estimated transfer fee of

It is easily feasible that you could get a

Even if John would agree to come to the light

McGinn has loads of SPL experience and could
easily slot into anywhere in the new Rangers midfield. He is highly regarded
