beararse

We ain’t getting 10m+ for Tav. Not even from the Saudi’s Not a chance in hell.

I work on the principle they are broadly on the right lines. As long as any comparison I make is from the same site I guess it’s reasonably safe to assume they are comparable.

Still better scoring 3 and conceding one as it would go to goals scored if goal difference and head to head happened to be level.

He’s got a 20% conversion rate in the league. Shankland’s is 23.3%

Exactly.

My guess is he meant ‘in a game’. ie would prefer to watch a striker with the same goal return who creates very little but is lethal or one who creates loads of chances but only converts a small proportion. Isn’t that hards concept to grasp (unless you take everything literally) Personally, id prefer one who created (and fluffed) loads of chances but still scored roughly the same amount of goals.

That’s the spirit.

This. The whole 'we need a 20 goal a season striker but not this one' gets on my tits. Its not Dessers' fault Roofe is made of glass, Lammers misfired, Danillo and Lovelace got crocked (you can add in Sima too even tho he's not a striker) and £35m man Silva is utter shite, meaning we've had to rely on him leading the line through most of the campaign. He misses a fair amount of guilt edged chances but he has scored some crackers manufactured from nowt. Weirdly if he was a 20 goal a season man who scored the obvious ones and did little else (ala Colak) we'd probably be raving about him.

If you call having a shot/goal conversion of 23.3% is ‘far far more clinical’ than Dessers’ 20% rate.

Tom Miller is fucking chronic. It’s like listening to a hospital radio DJ.

Is the game not on RTV for us (cough) overseas fans?

Fair point, but there was no blood to smell when we played County. We showed great resilience and effectively scored 4 v celtic in 45 mins and (at that stage) were ready to take a clear lead at the top of the league and remained on course for a treble. Dundee probably based their approach on County's showing and choose to attack us. That's when their arses collapsed.

Plus Goldson is a seasoned professional, had been at Rangers for 3 years at the point and was vice captain, when he said what he said. Sterling is just in the door and still not a guaranteed starter (although he absolutely should be) yet he's clearly identified where the issues lie.

The thing that has confused the fuck out of me this past week is the Ross County and Dundee didnt sit back. There was no low block. They took the game to us and we absolutely shat it. I'd happily see the whole lot binned bar Sterling (and Butland but he'll be offski). You don't necessarily have to be the best to be a success at anything, but you have to have the right mindset.

You can't question his scoring record, but you have to question his role as captain. Should have been stripped of it immediately following THAT match day program IMO.

He’s a no.2

Absolutely chronic.

You just know they’ll come good once the title is out their reach mathematically. Shower of shite. The whole fucking lot of them bar Butland, Yilmaz, Sterling and Diomande can fuck off.

3 subs and Lawrence still on the pitch. Baffling, to say the least.

Can somebody please explain what Lawrence offers to this team because I haven’t a bloody clue. Utter shite.

31 points from a possible 109 against celtic AND 68 points lost in old firm games? Something doesn’t add up. 109-31 is 78. Makes you wonder if some of the other stuff listed is a lot of shite too..

Imagine

Cant argue against those stats. I didnt think he was any worse than anyone else under Beale to be honest and he improved under Clement but then fell out of favour. Lacked the mental resilience to play for Rangers, not skill IMO.

I was pandering to his critics who seem happy to flog him at half price. Personally I didn’t think he was that bad at Rangers. Never scored much but did OK in what was (now) obviously not his natural position. He was clearly a lad with some skill. Id have him back to be honest. Even out of position, he's an upgrade on Lawrence IMO who is absolutely shite but I can’t see him wanting to come back.
