*****The Official Dundee v Rangers Match Thread*****

Why do we insist on playing a back four when in reality its a back three. Calling Tav a right back is like calling Dessers a striker because neither one do the job their supposed position calls for. Tav wanders around the field very rarely in his position 90% of the time he is chasing back trying to catch up to an opposition player running up the sideline. Against Ross County he was over in the left midfield on a number of occasions then having to scramble over to the right to catchup to an out ball from the opposition. Dessers is never a striker, some of his attempts from in the 18 yard box are abysmal and yes he has scored a number of goals but statistically, chances against conversions are terrible. We do not perform well against teams that are willing to attack us, we are so used to teams with ten men in defence we don't seem to be able to adapt to teams that are prepared to attack us. -

Our ability to defend against any team that is willing to attack with pace i.e. celtic and now Ross County is terrible. Not just Tav, Goldson and Barasic are hopeless against anyone running at them plus Lunny had a bad game compared to his last few as did Lawrence. A bad result but not the end of the World yet, the whole team need to take responsibility for that display.

Loved Pedro. He was a great wee player for us and that goal was a stand out.

Very young player but has started to show why the scouting team put him up. The rest of this season and then a full pre season he will be a standout next season.

What a great post from Dujons agent, someone who has been with him through thick and thin. -

You can guarantee the audio will not get released just in case there is something said about the incident. Johnston clearly deliberately handled the ball to stop Sima from getting any further. If Sima is marginally offside ( debatable ) my understanding of the offside rule is that " if a player is in an offside position and the ball is passed to him then the linesman flags for offside " I have looked at the available footage and I do not see a flag raised by the linesman. The way I read the law is the handball should have seen a penalty awarded, then if there was a question by celtic players it would be reviewed and if there was justification for the offside then it should have been a free kick to celtic on the edge of the 18 yard box.

None of them. Roofe is perpetually injured, Jack while being a good player in his day, is past it. McLaughlin is an expense we can do without especially when we have young McCrorie as Number 2. Borna is also past it been a great fullback for us but is well past it. Lunny has come good under Clemente but is subject to going missing. We need a good clear out of the deadwood but the question is can we afford it. -

The equation is simple, you foul a player inside the 18 yard box and its a penalty. That's the rules and if you are too simple to understand that ( opposition players ) if your management does not coach you not to push, pull, two hands on a attacking players shoulders to assist jumping you are going to get pinged. VAR has given officials a chance to look at every claim from every angle in slow motion over and over so even the slightest suspicion is going to result in a spot kick. -
A bit like some of my report cards.... Nice lad, tries hard but does not seem to grasp the concept.

Anyone who thinks Kent didn't " just pick up his pay " the last season he was with us never saw him at his best. Same goes for Alfie.

The manager has said, he is assessing individual players before he decides who stays and who goes. So I'm hoping this is what he is doing with Lammers and Dessers, he has played with Dessers before so has some idea of what he is capable of. but I don't think he is good enough for us. I think Lowry, McCausland, Lovelace and Rice should be given a run to see how they go.

Statistics can be made to tell any story you want just depends on the criteria you use. I've watched strikers in teams from different leagues in many different competitions score some sublime goals, some lucky ones some brilliant ones. Trust me Dessers is not a strikers arsehole.
