ChampionsAgain 1,373 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I genuinely believe we will run over the top of villareal in 2 weeks. I’m going to say 3 points vs Villareal and 1 point in Vienna. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim beam 2,188 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Nah we’ve fucked it I reckon which is annoying after the great start we had but the two games against The Russians especially last nights debacle sealed it.The up side is we can hopefully concentrate on the league instead.

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 The group is wide open with 2 matches to go. Once I got over the disappointment I consoled myself with the thought that I would have taken where we are right now before a ball was kicked.

The Monk 3,207 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 4 points is enough for us in any scenario (I think), just need to avoid defeat against Villareal to give ourselves everything to play for in Vienna. If we win against Villarreal were pretty much through imo. Sure we've made it hard for ourselves but by no means are we out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me failure to win at home against them was the bigger issue. Win at Ibrox and last night's result would have been less damaging as we would have 2 more points and a better head to head with the Russians.

GovanFrontSince96 315 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Don’t see why we can’t can’t get 3 points against Villarreal at home and be in a great position. Whatever happens I hope we are still in with a shout heading to Vienna, from a travelling perspective it will be great to be in with a chance of progressing. A loss at home and Spartak win would be brutal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKnight87 17,242 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Villarreal haven't travelled well in this group. It's possible to get a 3 points at ibrox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMax399 3,632 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 It’s still possible, but probably a 50/50 shot now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 This group reminds me of the Lyon and Stuttgart group in the CL 2007 - we came out flying in the first three games, then struggled badly for the rest of the group - I don't think we have enough defensively to get a win against Villarreal, and not convinced we can go to Austria and win. It's been a nice ride, overacheived to get through, but time to get back to the reality of league football. pollok-bear 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al 55 9,205 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Can forget that, blew it last two games. Awful performances, no imagination at Ibrox, no clue how to change it. Brutal defending in Russia, threw it away. BlueAvenger and surfsup2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 34,991 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Villarreal haven’t traveled well at all and we’re still unbeaten at home this season. It’s very much all too play for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogzy 31,195 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Whatever happens I am happy with the run we have had, getting even one more point against Spartak would have made things much easier. I think we have over achieved big time, didn't give us much chance of even make group stages. BridgeIsBlue 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulbrian11 432 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 It’s hard to predict how the other games will go. I’ll be reasonably happy if we’re still in with a shout going into the last game. It wasn’t that long ago Alloa knocked us out of the Challenge Cup, getting knocked out the Europa League by Villarreal or Rapid after a decent showing in the group stage seemed a long, long way away.

Usual good start in a group, which then peters out. I send your point re concentrating on the league, but this will still be a distraction for the next 5 weeks. Still in a position where we could go on beyond that, if results go in our favour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutton2008 646 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 It will be very hard. I know we got a good result away to Villarreal but we were still horrendous. They were by far the better side and they have started finding some form domestically. I reckon close loss/draw against Villarreal and a win in Vienna. We smash rapid home and away.
