BearJohn 62 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 How would being half way between the player and the goals be narrowing his angles?? If he kept running out to the player he would have cut off the attack.So because he found himself halfway between the player and his goals he wasnt narrowing the angles?????? I thought thats what coming out, staying big was called narrowing your angles. Jesus ive been doing it wrong for all this time. Infact better contact the goalies union and tell them weve had it wrong for this amount of time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelavic191 4,423 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm not overly concerned. The defence and keeper have only played together for like 3 or 4 games . It will come together eventually. As will our finishing and when it does click we might just be close to unstoppable in this league. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibroxholm 2,276 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Need to get our shooting boots on and making the chances count, otherwise we are going to come a cropper sooner or later.Small point, but before every game at Ibrox, players take turns at playing shooty in at the practice goal at the Copland/Main Stand corner. Players conversion rate on this is absolutely atrocious. Maybe doesn't mean much but practice makes perfect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 35,428 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 No wake up call at all. We were outstanding. Limited them to one shot at goal which they scored. Bossed the game all night. Wake up call that we need to take chances aye but other than that the football on display was breathtaking at times. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammy cox 664 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I think what we are needing is a stay at home midfielder to stop attacks and give the ball to a set up man in the middle and if by signing Eustace and he is playing that role then you will see a more settled central defence and a more confidant defence.The one thing i don't like is the amount of back passing to the goalkeeper.Teams are catching on to that tactic and pressing the keeper hard and if they don't do something to correct that it will cost us a goal or three.Come on mate " teams are catching on to that tactic " it's our first league game lets just enjoy the result and let the other teams worry I think we have spent enough time worrying over the past few years.

sjmcmeechan 28 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Reminds me of Newcastle under Keegan. Everytime a ball is played between the centre halfs we look vulnerable. Khernan is just not mobile enough to play in a flat back four. He needs to play in front of Wilson. If you turn Kiernan, you,ve beat him Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearJohn 62 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 1 yard from the st mirren player and he would have been out his box and couldnt use his hands. Mate your wrong, your not getting it was the keepers fault they played through the defence it was a 1 on 1. You stay big and narrow your angles. A keeper charging out at you gives you the option of going round him or chipping him or letting him take you out. Your barking up the wrong tree here and anybody who knows what it is to play in goals will tell you your 100% wrong. Nothing to do with the keeper.

Your barking up the wrong tree here and anybody who knows what it is to play in goals will tell you your 100% wrong. Nothing to do with the keeper.The 1 yard/ 5 yard was an example. He left his line to go to the player and stalled, opening up the goal and leaving the player time. Had he kept charging he could have spread himself and narrowed the angle further Had he stayed on his line the defence would have pressured the player. He was caught in no mans land. As for all your pish about "you've never been a keeper", that matters fuck all when its clear to see the keeper should have been at the player after committing to coming out, being up at the player rather than a few yards off is always better. Take it you never made it professionally? There's maybe a reason to that..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBluebells 6,898 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Still a long way to go but if we're winning against our rivals the way we are before we've proper clicked then I'm a very happy man thus far.Penalty was shocking, horrid challenge but it happens.

ritchieshearercaldow 22,137 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I agree but clearly hes being told not to kick it up the park.This is Mr Warburton's style of play, why punt the ball up the park just for it to come back at you? problem is it can be risky if the keepers not confident with it.

cushynumber 25,178 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 A few points:I thought we played very well for the vast majority if the game. It was a real pleasure to watch us tonight.A 4-3-3 is going to leak goals and they have to learn from that and we have to realise that.Our keeper has great hands, but when the ball is at his feet, my hearts in my mouth. We need a centre forward but Waghorn in a role hanging off a centre is excellent.We have only had these players for 6 weeks.It's all good.
