To be honest... a lot of the teams have improved their squads significantly compared to years gone by.

Oh it can be done, but it doesn't often happen. Especially with a team put together a few months ago mate. They aren't exactly romping it this year, and I blame Europe for that, at least in part.

I hope so but will we finish ahead of Hearts? Again I hope so but the win at the weekend was a grind, the last two away wins have been grinding wins which are coming pretty late enough in the games and we aren't playing that well. So it's a slog. The team we getting ripped to pieces on this forum before we scored at the weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that's what happened to him off the back of years of mediocrity with Liverpool and England. And yes I know he won the champions league once, before someone brings it up.

It's more to do with them taking the eye off the ball. If we had the required standards in our squad ie a squad strong enough and enough quality we probably would be able to catch them. But we don't so alas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"We need to play the best 11". He cannot win. don't think centre of defence has been rotated Katic got bombed out and since then the defence has gone all to fuck - on the couple of time he has played his confidence has looked shattered Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely think that some of the teams have improved a lot in terms of management and players. It just means that when we used to rely on fitness to get us the win, it doesnt anymore.

We have no consistency, it's been like that all season so far. Hearts find themselves top, which won't last long but it's much better than us. Every game in the league is a slog, we aren't blowing teams away week in week out and we are conceding a lot of goals, silly goal at that. So I'd need to be reminded why I should be confident of it?

Tomatasauce 1,253 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 8 minutes ago, The Dude said: Think we've played 26 games already this season and it's a few days after bonfire night. Last season we played our 26th game of the season two days after Xmas. Rotation is absolutely necessary. That’s just making excuses, Davie weir played 60 games in a season for us at 39 or something we have a young team, there is no chance they are physically knackered, mentally they are weak and that’s a problem, you don’t make it at Rangers if your mentally weak. they should be kicking gerrards office door off the hinges demanding not to be rotated, but be dropped if their performances drop, not many of our players were regulars at their clubs when we signed them maybe there’s a reason for that The No.9 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
