25 Players Who Stole A Living From Rangers

19. Kevin Muscat

In all likelihood, Kevin Muscat does, but he really should thank his lucky stars that he was given the opportunity to play with footballers like Ronald DeBoer and Michael Mols. At first, Rangers fans were delighted when the club secured Muscat's services for the 2002-2003 season. Signed on a free transfer, the defender had a hard-nosed mentality, and had built a reputation for himself in Australia, as well as with both Crystal Palace and Wolves in England for being a tough-tackling, no-nonsense kind of player. Traditionally, Rangers fans respond well to that kind of defender, having idolised the likes of Richard Gough and Terry Butcher previously. Suddenly, Muscat's strengths evaporated, leaving a hollow shell of a defender who could neither tackle, pass nor run, making him pretty useless. Clocking in 22 appearances over the season, the guy would still leave with a treble (Scottish league, Scottish Cup and Scottish League Cup), but contributed very little. At least he was free, but he was a complete waste of wages and the start of a downward spiral for the signing policy at the club.
