McCrorie's Challenge

[NeoGeo7 10,446]

Another solid performance from him today. He has the knack of knowing when to step forward an intercept, head or challenge but one challenge stood out for me.

What a brilliant and confident challenge from him inside the penalty box and it shows why he should be playing instead of Cardoso as Cardoso looks very vulnerable when players cut inside and run at him like this (Also the little pull back from Tav at the end there was good too and set us off on another attack).

For me you earn your place in the team through your performances not price tags or status and McCrorie needs to retain his place when Cardoso is fit again.

 

[Clemdog 39,389]

Absolutely spot on.

[Captain Hilts 12,819]

A very risky challenge to make, especially given the way refs have treated us so far this season, but he executed it to perfection. This lad has a very bright future for sure. 

[pcbear 10,913]

He is a cool kid and an excellent footballer, he has all the qualities in his locker to be a fixture in our side for years to come.

[Lloyd 10,756]

Was that not the tackle which won the ball back for us and started the attack for the third goal?

[A.T.G 10,773]

Agreed. He’s a natural, it’s important he is managed the best possible way to reach his potential

[.Williamson. 82,018]

Enjoyed that tackle 

[TopCat 4,511]

Great tackle, turning defence into attack.

No, it led to the Candeias header from Tav's cross where he was just under it

[Bristol loyal 6,248]

Seriously impressed with this young lad, just hope he's a Rangers player for a long time!

One of his biggest strengths is how well he reads the game, that's something you can't coach. He's not the finished article but he's only going to keep getting better with game time. Playing and training with someone like Bruno must be a massive help to him aswell. 

[Cedrick 8,048]

McCrorrie and Danny Wilson were excellent yesterday , solid from start to finish , shouldn’t be a given when big Bruno and Cardoso are back they go straight back in 

[bornabear 6,201]

He's a young lad with what could be a great footballing career ahead of him.

He has a lot in his locker and can get even more better.

Hope he's with us for a good while.

[Blue Avenger 22,567]

I like McCrorie. Will be a real force in the future for us. Great ability and no shrinking violet.

[Junior Soprano 22,428]

He should be in that team ahead of Alves from now on

I don’t know. I’m more confident with Alves at corners or when we are under the cosh. He seems to win everything. Would rather Wilson was dropped.

[gogzy 31,195]

Been impressed with him nearly every time he has played.  I'd have no problems with him being a starter for us.

[StirlingBear72 476]

The lad is a breath of fresh air.

I thought him and Wilson looked good together and I'm not a huge Wilson fan. 

[Amac9 2,060]

Anyone but Cardoso.

[Blue Avenger 22,567]

Wilson had a solid perormance yesterday imo, but his weaknesses due to his lack of pace are there to see. Alves and McCrorie first pick all the way. Not forgetting John, solid at left back but it is clear left mid is where it is at for. Abundance of talent and potential. Can't see him being here at the end of the season. Destined for bigger things I think.

[KingKirk 25,607]

he's a Rangers fan to outstanding prospect. Its credit to himself and youth department just how far he's come.

his brother will need to go some if he's the bigger talent likes been suggested

Yep, but thats not to say we give up on Fabio. But McCrorie definitely has more potential 

18-24 months from now they coukd be our centre defence pairing. 

[Band of Brothers 10,303]

I like seeing his name on the the team sheet he deserves a good run in the team.

The clever part in that tackle was that he reduced the risk by going in with his left. If he tried to take that with his right, his thigh would have made contact and risked the attacker going down.

He certainly looks like a player.

Here is the build up to the third (sped up so that I can fit it all in!). Pressure from backtracking Morelos, Jack and Holt dispossessing them then a nice turn from Holt followed by that pass from Miller

Brilliant build up and a great finish from Windass but that Miller goal was effortless and perfectly weighted. Not bad for a guy I slated this season as a shite passer
