The bomb squad - who's left?
ronniemca replied to East Enclosure Row N's topic in Jimmy Bell's Kitroom
Grezda was replaced by Murty at halftime a couple of weeks ago for basically loitering on the pitch,Your last sentence answers the question I'd say. -

Soon to be SNP member for Glasgow Barrowland

Yeah we're good at throwing the ball to opposing players.Tav done it in the second half,then chucked it as they broke up the field and nearly scored.Absolutely disgraceful from a Rangers captain.

It doesn't matter to me what jurisdiction a game comes under as I only sing in the bath.However if my next door neighbour hears me and reports me to Fare ,Will my seat be closed down for the group stages?

Will a junior be able to get in with an adult or adult concession ticket?

It's difficult for anyone who spent his whole career to date playing as a defender to come into midfield and be effective in anything but ball winning.If you watch Ross when he gets on the ball in tight areas he struggles to get his head up and see the picture.This is an essential part of any good midfield players game and it doesn't come naturally to anyone who has spent their life "facing Play"

The problem with Mcrorie is that he simply is not a modern midfield player.He is a good athlete with the heart of a lion ,but really that's his lot.The boy was a right back for the majority of his young career,and a cracking one at that.He was shoved into an old firm game and played well in an ultra negative role and all of a sudden he was our own Busquets.Gerrard is wrong in this one,the boy is a defender and always has been.Get him back to where he is most comfortable Stevie

18 games this season against the current top 6

That exactly it.He is trying to copy the Liverpool system of 433 ,which is fair enough.The difference lies in how the front 3 are deployed.The Liverpool front wide men are constantly coming inside into the box when the play is on the opposite wing.Our wide men are constantly on the line (probably because our full backs are hopeless defensively) which leaves us with an isolated striker usually against two ,sometimes three defenders.We are not implementing the 433 system properly and it's not just down to the players -
Wouldn't suprise me if Gerrard doesn't see out the season
ronniemca replied to KingKirk's topic in Jimmy Bell's Kitroom
We can't just keep bringing in players.We needed a Manager/coach who could improve players,who was tactically astute and who could bring on youngsters .Instead we got a rookie" big name" glamour appointment designed to get the "place jumpin ".The type of appointment which has failed so often all over world football. I said all this last year and the scenario is working out just as I thought.An initial burst of euphoria resulting in some decent results then gradually running out of ideas when faced with challenges.We are now behind the eight ball as we can't afford to get rid of Gerrard even if we want to unless he decides to quit ,which is unlikely. -
This is it.Any successful team playing 433 need their wide players coming inside and interchanging with the main striker.look at Man City,Liverpool, even St Pats ,all have wide players and midfielders who contribute plenty of goals.we have wide players who generally stay on the line and cross the ball into the box for a lone striker usually surrounded by opposition players.Madness

Don't see any evidence at all that Gerrard is going to be a top manager.Yes we need to give him another couple of windows but for me the signs are not good,.The team is no better than previous years,the same mistakes repeated game after game and the same excuses and pleas for "reactions " trotted out after nearly every game.I hope I'm wrong but I really don't see it with Gerrard.

Not sure it's a no 10 .More a goal scoring midfielders in my view .Look at the return St Pats get from their midfielders and wide players in the goal scoring stakes,that is where the big difference is between the sides is.All our midfielders are similar,tidy on the ball ,decent in the build up but completely hopeless around the opposition box
