Burnley fans respond to scott arfield's parting message ahead of glasgow rangers transfer

Arfield became the first Steven Gerrard era signing at Rangers, signing a four-year deal at Ibrox this week. Rangers have got themselves a gem in Scott Arfield, according to fans of the new

Ibrox recruit’s former club, Burnley. Arfield called time on his five-year Burnley career earlier this week to become the first signing Steven Gerrard era signing at Rangers. But despite him

walking out on the Clarets, you would be hard pressed to find a bad word said about the Livingston-born Canadian winger – as evidenced by the replies to his parting message on Twitter. >

 — Robert Thomas Parker (@RtP_0508) 14 May 2018 Rangers supporters should need little encouragement to get behind Arfield, who is himself a lifelong Gers fan. The 29-year-old has previously

played for Falkirk in Scotland, before heading south of the border with Huddersfield Town at the start of the decade. He later won promotion with the Terriers, and did likewise twice with

Burnley – albeit to the Premier League, where he played 86 times, scoring or creating eight goals. WILL RANGERS MAKE A BETTER SIGNING THAN THE FORMER BURNLEY MIDFIELDER THIS SUMMER?
