You better believe it. Our Champions haven’t even got going yet. Injuries, suspensions, players out of form, COVID. Not to mention pre season disruptions. Its August. We are in the Europa League group stages, we are 4 league games into the season and just beaten our rivals with a depleted squad. Never write off the Rangers. This is a proper Rangers squad.

Immense. Some performance from Balogun.

That’s why you never write off the Rangers. That second half performance was everything you’d want from a Rangers team.

I thought their defence was supposed be rotten. Our frontline have done nothing. Any time we get in a good position it’s a slack ball or a heavy touch.

Kent off a keeper on ?

So slack on midfield and shown no quality in the final 3rd. I can’t remember the last time we made a telling delivery into the box ?

Show them & the rest why we are Champions. 90 minutes of leaving nothing on that park & head into int break full of confidence. Then we can rest , regroup & get bodies back. Here we go. C’mon the Rangers

This is why you have a squad. Time to stand up.

Aribo can drop into full back, Balogun back into the middle if need be.

Are McGregor & McLaughlin covid related ?

Keeper.

Bassey is out is he not? if he was available he should be at lb ahead of Borna.

Bacuna is an attacking midfielder.

Balogun played rb in Belgium against Antwerp after Tav went off injured. He also played rb at the piggery and was caught out for the first goal. He was all over the place that game.

I’d have concerns over Balogun and cb let along rb .

No Patterson. Really? Injured or for sale?

Roofe has to start. Preferably alongside Alfredo & hopefully Kent. We’ve got Sakala back as another option from the subs bench. Pace, movement & tempo the way to breech them. I think we will see direct balls from Goldson from the get go. You know they are going to come flying out the traps. We just need to remain patient, calm & composed in possession. Out of it just remain disciplined & organised & switched on. Their midfield offer very little protection to a high and vulnerable back-line.

I thought it was loan with view to permanent. Looks like its permanent from the off. Talk of 3M£

Sakala & Lundstram don’t come cheap & neither does Bacuna. Replace those three with a player of genuine quality.

They are playing with a bit of energy, pace and high press. We don’t handle sides well that press us hard.

The last thing we need. We need energy, penetration and quality in midfield. Too slow & predictable. A lack of cutting edge, very little creativity. Very passive & lacking fluidity.

Aribo lacks consistency & end product.

He’ll be nowhere near the 11 against the tims. Kamara, Aribo and Davis most likely.

This is what happens when you don’t improve the 1st 11. Not one of our summer signings get into the first 11 when every one available.

He’s been at fault for two goals conceded and now tonight gets himself sent off. Not a good start for Lundstram.
