kanjo 26,294 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Strange question to ask, I know.. But an interesting one I'd say. I think this current team is better than 05/06 overall. I'd say it would have potential to beat PLG's Team also. That said it also makes me think just how much it'd take to be consistent and challenge.Strange question to ask i know but I found it interesting.

onefootwillie 1,518 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 No nowhere near as good as even that team Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear on the bus 3 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I think they could beat one of the most succesful Rangers sides ever- the 98/99 perfect season team.There's no way these guys would be fit enough to compete with Ally's team. Playing five up front would open them up to counter attacks. They would also be bamboozled by modern offside laws and their roughhouse tactics would see a lot of them sent off. I predict a 7-0 victory for the current Rangers team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCPRANGERS1 2,997 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 You think this current team would be able to beat a side with Peso, Novo, Ricksen. Klos, Ferguson, Boyd, Hutton, Lovenkrands etc a squad that reached the last 16 of the Champs League? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMS 15 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Nope not a chance in hell, OP your having a laugh! PLG's team whilst not built for the Scottish game looked to be the most composed and suitable to Europe I've seen in generations, McCoist has built one of the most turgid, utterly depressing styles I've seen in 35 years of watching us.No contest whatsoever for me!

TheMotor 2,208 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 If the two teams met 4 times a season, the current team wouldn't get a point and would be lucky to get a goal. Plus Boyd and Smith would be very confused. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love how you're implying that PLG had a better squad than the side that made the last 16 doh Right so you're saying blacks better than ferguson , templeton better than Lovenkrands, bells better than klos .....

Jimfanciesthedude 24,358 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 here's a better question, put mccoist in charge of ecks final season team, or PLG's team, and either PLG or Eck on charge of this current lot, and who would win Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangersross 6,527 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 01.Allan McGregor02.Alan Hutton05.Sasa Papac19.Karl Svensson06.Barry Ferguson07.Brahim Hemdani08.Jeremy Clement11.Charlie Adam14.Libor Sionko10.Nacho Novo23.Filip SeboSubstitutes01.Stefan Klos11.Gavin Rae17.Chris Burke18.Ian Murray30.Makhtar N'Diaye33.Steven Lennon29.William StangerThat was our starting line-up in the 2-1 defeat at Inverness (27/12/06), a particularly memorable low point. Starting from the top, I'd certainly swap Novo and Sebo for Miller and Boyd. There's a real lack of attacking options on that bench, too. Clark is far better than Steven Lennon ever was, as is Daly. A couple of other weak links jump out - Sionko, who was rarely better than average, and Svensson in particular. Ferguson and Hemdani were obviously better than anyone we've got now, but Clement and Adam were so poor for us in those days, I could see Law, Black and Macleod getting something from them.

kanjo 26,294 Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 So this Rangers team would fail to beat what is statistically the worst Rangers top flight team since the 80s?I am deadly serious when I say we could have beaten that team. What made me think this was our game against Clyde at Ibrox that season, followed by various performances which I remember but try to forget. All my opinion, of course.
