We showed against Hearts & Rapid that we do have the balls for a battle, why can we not show that in EVERY game, if we did we'd steamroll teams in Scotland Exactly mate this is what I don't get with them they have done it in a few games. Then completely bottle it in others. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanjo 26,328 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 We cant keep sacking managers. That is why the SG gamble has to work. Plenty of coaching is required for a start. What frustrates me is our lack of leadership ON the park. Off the park I think SG is all there and he is being let down by bad habbits by the Taverniers of this world (how many times does he need to take a set play before he realises hes wasting them). If Davis is the sollution to that then so be it but we need to do something because we're looking flat when things aren't going well and it's the same story as last year. And the year before. And the year before that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that is not sustainable and average players are now reverting to type. You got it in one! Exactly the same dynamic as under MW and Pedro, but ffs, don't let the experts know.

We can't just chop and change managers. It was imo always going to take three transfer windows to fix this unless some.mad Arabs buy us I think that is kind. Gerrard has been given significant funds (in our recent terms) to change things. Whilst our performances in Europe have been above par, our bread and butter (confirmed by Gerrard) has been worse than before. We have seen the same below par performances far too often this Season and nothing can excuse it, considering he has a clearly higher quality of player. Not to mention a further depth in the squad. Excuses shouldn't be made. I want him to succeed and take no pleasure in these results, but we need to find someone who can grind out results domestically.

If you do, I'm all ears and please don't suggest some old English guy that has been recycled because there is many of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLYBOY50 1,638 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 So the manager gives the whole squad a warning after the semi final. Individially and collectivly. Says he will look for their replacements if they don't shape up and come out their shell. He is rewarded by that performance tonight. Although i never saw any of the game I'm just going by all the comments in here. What does he do now ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a great player he is a global brand in sure he will make a good manager one day but I’m being realistic if we fall further behind and the tims beat us at ibrox before the break, folk will be calling for his head. They won’t give a Fuck about his brand or his journey into management he is a rookie and we can’t have that Rangers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEPPS BOY 73,886 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I think the worry is that he’s not getting a reaction. He has a squad there, it’s time to drop those that are under acheiving and until he has the correct players - ditch the 4-3-3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was not producing results in my job then it's the exact same scenario... and we all know what happens if that fails. I maintain that there are bad habbits in our club just now dating back to the MW era and we need to source those habbits now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegendofCoop 17,273 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Being honest, we as a fan base (myself included) all got carried away when we were beating diddy European teams. We're now realising we're not as good as we thought, and it's a big comedown. The scum game stuck out like a sore thumb and was the first sign that nothing much had changed domestically. We've done fairly well in the group stages, and that's been papering over the cracks. Gerrard has to find a way to get the team scoring the chances....numerous chances, we're creating. And fast! I never felt it was necessary to win the league this season, but felt/feel we HAVE to come second and by a smallish margin. The worry is that, after today's annual figures, I can see Morelos being sold if a decent bid comes in, so we'll have to effectively find 2 scoring strikers.
