    He might be more tempted to go to the huns seeing as they have Edu and Beasley:38:

    Well at least Beasley is officially away from Rangers now. I believe his contract was up and they let him go. Edu probably doesn't have great things to say about Rangers either after some of those racial incidents.

    Would love to see Onyewu here, but it looks as though AC Milan want to keep him and are even opposed to sending him out on loan to anywhere outside of Italy.

    Would be a really good player for us but defense is the one position that I don't agree with loan signings in as defenders are the backbone of the team and should hopefully have a very good understanding with each other from years of playing together

    Hopefully if he does go on loan it'll be here, he looks like an absolute beast:50:

    I would agree with that. I'm not to keen on any loan deals to be honest, unless there is some kind of option to buy at the end of it.

    I thought he just offered to play for AC MIlan this season for free? Strange that they'd ship a "free" player.

    The free season on his contract comes at the end of the deal (2013 I believe??)

    Either way he would be a great pickup, even if just on loan. When he's healthy, he is a great centerback.............

    To be fair he was playing next to Titus Bramble. Bramble made Boumsong look bad who went on to do alright at Juventus and Lyon.

    Not decided on if this guy "Gooch" is any good though, AC Milan must've seen something good in him.

    I've seen him play well and i've seen him play *


    However, all in all I do rate him as I think he is streets ahead of Demeritt in the USNT and really think his only recently recovered injury explains his world cup performance.

    Why would Rangers want to pay his wages? They have Weir, Bougherra, Wilson and Webster for the same position.
    Edit: and Jordan McMillan who have just penned a new contract.

    I'd be getting a new top with his name on it just because it'd be fun to wear to national team games
