Mendes pledges future to Rangers

Wed 03 Jun, 10:26 AM


Pedro Mendes has revealed he would gladly sign a longer-term contract with Rangers.

The Portuguese midfielder only moved to Ibrox last summer on a three-year deal, but has fallen in love with the club and Glasgow.

Mendes, 30, told the Daily Record: "I have enjoyed everything about the club. I love the club, the city and the family have settled well so I am enjoying myself in Glasgow."

He added: "If the club comes to me and asks me to sign a long-term contract, I would talk with them and be willing to stay for a long time yet."

Meanwhile, Christian Dailly says he has loved every minute of his 16-month spell at Ibrox. The former Scotland defender, 35, left Rangers this week after his contract expired.

Dailly, who finished his career at the club on a high after helping them land a league and cup double, said in the Scottish Sun: "It was a great thing for me to come to Rangers. I had always wanted to try something like it.

"I had always been at clubs who weren't expected to win every week. But I have always been a player who does expect to win every week.

"I could never understand the underlying mentality at some clubs that you might not win.

"I felt that we should be looking to win every single game.

"The great thing about being at Rangers was it felt so natural for me to play and expect to win. It was a brilliant experience and an amazing place to play football."

  1. Hey Stuart your right Celtic are all over the back­ pages, just like Labour is all over the front ones.­ They have a lot in common, their best people are­ leaving and once Gordon Brown goes they will both be­ leaderless. Your teams in a bigger mess than Rangers­ pure and simple hahahahah

    From Stuart, on Thu 4 Jun 2:58PM

  7. Point 20. Rangers would rather win the race for­ championship and cup medals than to see who's­ getting on the back pages of newspapers written by­ Celtic supporters. Wise up, is this the best you've­ got?

    From frederick s, on Thu 4 Jun 2:31PM

  8. Does anyone else agree that Celtic PR team are doing a­ great job keeping the Huns of the Sports pages...all I­ see everyday is Celtic

    From Stuart, on Thu 4 Jun 2:17PM

  9. OK Paul G AKA The Windae Licker...give us your best­ team from Celtic and Rangers line ups....

    From Stuart, on Thu 4 Jun 2:15PM

  10. WE WELCOME THE CHASE *****

  11. Hullo, hullo wheres yer 4 in a row?

    Enough of the sour­ grapes. you lot.
    He spanked in a screamer against you­ in the 4-2 game.
    And he's a fantastic passer of the­ ball.

    Decent technical player.

    From Chris F, on Thu 4 Jun 3:01AM

  12. as was said 4 points clear not goal difference thats a­ clear one game win and a draw of a difference .
    .ie­ last old firm game where only three of our players­ would fit in their team ;)

    haha samaaaaa....arse ­ who scored about half the goals of our top goal scorer­ who is a lazy fat barsteward ..

    we dont even need to­ try ...in fact bring back Sebo to give you saddo's­ a chaNCE

    CAN I SAY NOT EVEN ONE OF THE TIC TEAM WOULD­ GET INTO OUR PRESENT SUB STANDARD CHAMPIONS TEAMS TEAM­ SO SUCK ON THAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    From David, on Thu 4 Jun 12:47AM

  13. LOL Celtic fans are so stupid, Rangers team is @#$%,­ there players are @#$%, this that this that. When will­ you lot learn. Rangers are the best team in scotland­ and have proved this. Can you not get this in your­ thick heads.

    From Paul G CHAMPIONS, on Wed 3 Jun 6:36PM

  14. yawwn what a laugh here.........
    only three­ Rangers players would get in the tic­ team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...
    mmm aye well you can­ have daily and beasley and take broadfoot if you want­ ....but be careful beasley and broadfoot score the odd­ goal and that would make them the top strikers at tic­ lol

    coming from fans whose team is worse than ours and­ managerless.... I think you should concentrate on what­ is happening at your place before slagging us ,after­ all if we are bad that means the tic are cr*p and to­ say only three of our players would walk into the tic­ team is so funny

    how did we win a cup and the spl­ over you then ?

    From David, on Wed 3 Jun 4:48PM

  15. Mendes isn't even the player he's made out to­ be, scoring a few good goals and then disappearing for­ most of the season does not constitute a great player.

    From t10guitars, on Wed 3 Jun 2:57PM

  16. if i was u lot, i would be concentrating on your own­ team, its clear celtic are in a worse state than­ rangers, so dont come on here saying only 3 rangers­ players would get in the celtic team. Celtic got beat­ by rangers fair and square, mendes scored a peach when­ we humped you 4 2 at parkhead, then scored another at­ tannadice as we won the leage and u couldnt even beat­ hearts at home! So take at a look at your own camp­ before trying to take the piss out of ours!

  17. 10 - We'll do you a deal then... You stay the f**k­ away from CELTIC stories then, ya two-faced C. Hunt!!

  18. all these comments from the jungle jims-you'd think­ this was a septic story-go and talk to tony adams­ bhoys-he's about your level.

    From D-bol, on Wed 3 Jun 12:05PM

  19. I agree m8...as stated befor only three of the Rangers­ team would get into the Celtic team
