TMB 14,167 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 The warning signs were there at the end of last season during the Scottish Cup final. Rob failed to close down his man and allowed stokes to walk straight up and kick the ball in the net. Today against Burnley we can see Kiernan's lack of quality and amateurish mistakes showing through again. If we go on in to the start of the new season with this guy in our defence he's going to cost us. The manager has said he's after a new CB and let's hope that happens sooner rather than later.

wullyRFC 5,230 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Him and Wilson should have been shoved towards the door not given contract extentions. Tav can't defend either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
centenarystand 2,227 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 The first minute of the cup final was the breaking point for me, he should never have played again, but what happens? He get a new contract. The failure to address the defensive frailties is alarming. Speak to any Rangers supporter and they will tell you same thing, Why is this not being sorted?

markem 7,238 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Not defending (ahem) any of them however they did come up against a boy that looks like he is going to go on to big things today.

RFCRobertson 11,705 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Improved towards the end when Rossiter and Wilson was alongside him. I'd rather he made mistakes today than during competitive play. Which he and others will make. It's inevitable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonofbear 398 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 But.....but.... a proper defensive midfielder will solve our defensive problems. Never mind a striker, if we have any money at all it should be spent on a CB that has pace and can defend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary1999RFC 54 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Unpopular view but i like him, Yes can be a bit rash, but he still has his best years ahead of him, he has been shocking in some games but has been outstanding in others, people seem to love pointing out his poorer games, and almost ignoring his best games.Like i said he has shown how good he can be, now he just needs to show it consintantly and that will come with games. People forget before came to us he had barely had a season where he played consintantly.At least you know he will give 100% and he will only improve Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanjo 26,294 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 I thought (and still think) Wilson is better and will be more than capable with a better defender beside him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he is by far not good enough to be a starter for us this season. We need a commanding defender who can organise at the back and isn't scared to get in and win a header! Kiernan is not that man.

siamthedanger 2,830 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Kiernan & Wilson are not good enough. It's that simple. I genuinely can't remember them having a really good game. What Warburton & Weir see in them I do not know. We need a strong partnership and it's something we really should of had in place by now.

Deanofwright 199 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 He brings his defensive partner down with him whoever it happens to be on the day. He lacks concentration and his positional sense is pish. Wilson is by no means a quality CB but he is better than kiernan. Lost count of how many times last season Wilson was shafted because of a kiernan error Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
