K.A.I 36,183 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 No surprise - you can by looking at him he’s the fittest player at the club by a mile shame he’s not much of a footballer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theiconicman 2,991 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 You know, I'm a wee bit concerned with all the focus on physical and fitness. It wasn't long ago we derided this type of pre-season as old fashioned and needed to focus more on the technical and tactics. I'm sure Gerrard will have that covered, surely we won't rock up to the first game fit as fuck but no clue what we're doing on the park.

They can practice technical stuff in Scotland when we return but the climate in Spain makes it even harder graft there for the players. Milsom is on record as saying he'll have players fit for Gerrards pressing style game. And I think something about readiness to play 60 x 90mins games over the season. I want not only fit players but athletic and strong aggressive players. Imo we're going about this the right way.

Fitness had a part to play in the way we collapsed last season as well, fuck even at the begining of last season you could see half the team blowing out there arse from 70 minutes onwards, we did get late goals but they were mostly out of sheer desperation.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I think this'll play a big part in who plays. One of the coaching staff said that we want to have a high intensity team on and off the ball, it seems Geerard will follow Klopp with the gegenpressing model. So I wouldn't be surprised if you see Docherty flourishing under Gerrard. gmcf 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangersross 6,530 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 When Docherty initially arrived his athleticism was noticeable and definitely added something to the side (we were on form at the time). Still think he’s got the potential to be a good Rangers player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gsa 3,906 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I think we all knew he was a great athlete, he just doesn't have the ability to be a driving box to box midfielder and he doesn't have the aggression or positional nous to be a midfield destroyer type. I'd expect him to be someone occasionally used from the bench and then to be leave in January or next summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
