RFCRobertson 11,771 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 How we feeling about this one? Personally I think we should be breezing past this lot, we’re playing them at home first so we should really be getting them pumped in the first leg and second leg. Yeah it’s inconvenient it’s 3 days before an old firm but fuck it, This is the situations you’ll find yourself in if you want to be champions or strong. The important thing would be not picking up any knocks however. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ger_onimo 20,488 Posted August 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2018 Russian teams give me the major fear, anything could happen over there. We really need at least a 2 goal advantage without conceding to take over there. Gazza2258, BridgeIsBlue, The No.9 and 7 others 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoGeo7 10,446 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Would have preferred Progres for a number of reasons but we just need to approach this like any of the previous games. I’m sure we’ve already got videos of their games against Progres and we’ll be finding ways to hurt them and any strengths they have to counter those. It could have been much harder than this as they looked pretty poor from what I saw yesterday however under this management I don’t think we’ll ever take anything for granted.

RangersMedia 35,961 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 By the looks of things they're a team who don't really score many goals but don't really concede many goals either. They only scored 34 goals in 30 games last season in the league but conceded 30. Beat them by 2 clear goals at Ibrox and we should be able to see it through in Russia Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMe 25,327 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 You can't underestimate any team in Europe tbh, we already found that out the hard way last year. I'm sure that'll be part of Gerrards team talk next week. Still confident we'll go through though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see many teams being able to score more than two goals against our defence in any one game, so it's about breaking them down at Ibrox.

Agree on that We just can't be that complacent about even assuming we will be in that position As much as I want to beat the scum We all know how important getting to the group stages would be for the club for the whole season and beyond dougie76 and Amato 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amato 3,016 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Finished 6th in Russia last year and are only in the Europa by default because the cup winners made an arse of their registration. Hopefully an easier test than Maribor. Who would've thought we could actually have Europa League group stage football this season? Superb.

Prso's headband 35,348 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I’d be going all out to kill the tie at Ibrox tbh. 4 days before we play them, 4 hour time difference, 4,600 mile round trip. Not exactly ideal before an OF. I’d rather we were that far in front we could rest players but I’d still take a 2-0 to go to Russia with.
