cushynumber 25,178 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 2 holding midfield players? What's that about? It smacks of playing high profile signings rather than your best team. His excuse re subbing Barton was frankly absurd and it comes across as if he doesn't know how to handle the high profile signings. He had some quick wins last year as the entire squad mcoist left was rubbish. However, despite the signings this year we haven't kicked on. It's fair to say doubts are creeping in.

WTF is going on. Pre emptive panic, but something needs done. Well he stated he wasn't going to go and watch the opposition but I think he needs to reevaluate that. And probably they'll not play like that against anyone else, as has been stated the big boys are back and all the others will try to raise their game, Boyd sprinting ffs etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a manager but when I seen the two holding midfielders playing I did think that'll probably be because of there next game. Wouldn't surprise me to see both of them playing against them. They don't have much game time with each other and that's a worry. The tactics he's adopted in the previous games could be due to this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WGOH 2,344 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Why bring on a holding midfielder, who isn't a holding midfielder, on against 10 men when your going for a goal. why not fling moh on and fucking go for it. Kilmarnock were holding on for a point yet we still continued with a fucking cdm.

Real Ranger 3,187 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 For me it would be absolute madness to change our manager. He comes across as an intelligent man who is attempting to change our footballing philosophy from the youth level through to the first team and I remain confident that given time and patience he will deliver real success to Rangers. The alternative is going back to the days reckless spending by gambling on recouping the cash on CL qualification. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGOH 2,344 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Am I right in saying that, apart from the stupid Betfred cup games this season, we've kept 1 clean sheet (Dumbarton when we won the league) since we beat Dundee ? that's fucking grim Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn't helped Waggy Holt and Windass being out and some players loss of form. Sacked is probably a bit extreme, but it needs to look as if he's thinking a little bit harder. As for the absentees - Holt hasn't kicked his own arse for 8 months & Windass is unproven. It would be nice if they could turn it, but I won't be holding my breath.

No the alternative is going to a manager who is comfortable playing different systems and formations to suit each individual match and react during to say this isn't working. Someone who can rotate players and see when people are not performing and drop them. He is running the thin line of being the nice guy and also having clear favourites who he stands by no matter of performance or result. We could be doing with an experienced, no nonsense manager who speaks his mind, tells them when they are shite and doesn't spout this pish if plan a or do plan a better.

the brown brogue 1,853 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I've said it before, I'm far from convinced that Warburton's managerial experience was a suitable apprenticeship for a club the size of Rangers. 18 months at Brentford with low expectations, yet still binned by the owner due to his reluctance to change his philosophy. A few games into the season, the transfer window away to close and we seem to have no discernible style of play or even by his own admission, a first choice starting 11. There can be no excuses for loading the squad with utility attackers with no real plan on how to utilise them whilst ignoring our defensive problems for the past 6 months at least. I'm not even talking about bringing players in, but surely a good coach should be able to work with defenders of albeit limited ability and at least make sure they can handle the basics such as marking and communication. After all, he did sign the all of them bar Wallace. He's done some good things, but no more that the majority of Rangers fans were already crying out for, just because things were dire under McCoist doesn't mean that Warburton deserves blind faith when the warning signs appear to be there already.

RDFM 3,809 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Don't like saying this but Kenny Shiels was correct when he said we have become to predictable. He needs to adopt some pragmatism and make some choices asap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
