It was a weird friendly. Rangers are practically ready for the beginning of the season, we need about 8-10 players, so everyone thought that we would lose heavily, and yet we somehow won 1-3. Neither of Carvalho's goals was spectacular (a tap-in and a deflection), but he was quite good (this time as a no. 10, and not in midfield as in earlier friendlies), with his usual good touches and a lot of pressing.

As I said before, it was considered certain that he would be sent away on loan, but he seems to have won a place in the roster.

The role he started off playing for Karanka and he looked pretty decent. Presses well from the front and no little skill. Hope it really works out for him at Oly.

I don't know if unemployed footballers have to make themselves a CV, but if they did I think his may read something like this:

I am applying for the role of Attacking Midfielder as I have both the personal attributes and professional experience required to be successful in the position, provided you can assure there will be 9 other outfield players that can do my hard work for me, and stop the opposition from tackling me. As a flair player with experience of playing in both the English Championship and Greek Super League, I recently achieved European success with Olympiacos playing the pivotal role of 4th choice number 10. Despite achieving the aforementioned European title, my greatest achievement would be my Man of the Match performance against Middlesbrough in a 2019 dead rubber, which even Martin O'Neil could not criticise. My greatest strength would be appearing to be so anonymous that I am almost invisible to the human eye, allowing me to do something really flashy once every five or six games, which occasionally may lead to a goal scoring opportunity.

Much like a deity, I thrive off belief and therefore it is essential that all of your fans worship me. Any non-believers fans not enthusiastically praising my abilities, should be accused of being heretics dinosaurs as they do not understand modern football. I previously commanded a transfer fee of thirteen million pounds, and I am now available for free! Therefore, I would be an excellent acquisition for [insert club name here], and you must take this opportunity now. I am available to stroll around a football pitch at your convenience.

This is fantastic :ROFLMAO: 👌

Makes me want to see Carvalho and Vlach in the same team, they'd be a right "stealth" unit! :ROFLMAO:

Stuart Pearce
As I'm sure I mentioned before, the only position he was half-decent over here was, surprisingly, the one of the defensive midfielder. He tried hard to reinvent himself, and became a tactically reliable and very hardworking midfielder. He simply lacked the pace and the chutzpah to take the reinvention to the next level.
