New faces thrill for Naismith

07 July 2010 08:31
Steven Naismith is relishing the prospect of new signings this summer because he believes Rangers need competition for places again. Boss Walter Smith has not bought a new player for two years but has been told cash will be available to bolster his squad ahead of the new Clydesdale Bank Premier League campaign. Naismith says the arrival of fresh talent at Ibrox can only benefit the current crop of players by giving the whole place a lift. "It will just keep everybody on their toes," the 23-year-old said. "The squad has not been as big for the last few years and a few new faces will brighten the whole place up. "Hopefully there will be more competition for places and it raises the standard again."
