  1. Never felt so convinced a manger has to go. Keeping him on will damage the club even further. I was on the fence with Gio as has he was limited in squad selection due to injuries but his negative comments after champions league games probably cost him the players full backing. Will the board act probably not, no director of football in place at the moment because Beale convinced them he didn't need one, perhaps he just didn't want another voice getting involved with player signings.
  2. After reflection, he still has to go. I've never seen a group of players so out of tune with what the expectations are. Yesterday we started two outfield new signings, one of them was forced on him by injury to Barasic. That alone after spending however millions is enough to say cheerio.
  3. Any credit Beale has in the bank is from his time with Gerrard. He's shown nothing as a manger in his own right and has failed to win any meaningful game. Getting rid of him after the money spent on transfers, would be an embarrassment but could save our season if the board act properly. Although It's not four games it's nine competitive games. SPL, Europe and league cup. Four wins, three defeats and two draws. Yes it's a team still integrating new players but we should be starting to see some passages of play that you can see has come from training field. So far it looks pretty much like nothing has changed, either in attitude or playing style. Personally I don't know who comes in that's what the board gets paid to do. But there are options out there.
  4. Sad thing is that ticket sales rather than the evidence before their eyes will be the barometer they use to make the decision to sack him.
  5. Nine competitive games and we have yet to see any semblance of a game plan something you can point and say I can see what he's trying to do. Absolutely nothing. Some will argue it's to early and we need to give him time but when a complete shit show is staring you in the face you have to acknowledge it and do something. Keeping him around does him no favours and alienates us from the club even more. We thought he could build a team and the signings of Raskin and Cantwell gave us real hope towards the end of last season but they are regressing and his signings making the starting line up is getting fewer by every game. Time to be decisive, sack him get an experienced manager.
  6. At this stage of the season four points is nothing. But the board have to act quickly. Either sack him pronto or back him and explain why. Been saying all season we can't afford project managers. We spent good money and I believe we have good players but this guy has no clue how to put a team together. Take your pick. Potter, Smith, Allerdyce, McInnes, Solskjaer fuck Martindale has to be in for shout.
  7. Problem having Dessers up front. Due to being a target too hit he encourages midfielders to take the easy option and go long instead of trying to build play through the midfield. Almost every time the ball has went forward we have been out numbered. Couple of times they have made a mistake but generally we have had no controlled possession in their half.
  8. Tactics are shit, surrendering half the pitch to them at times
  9. Glad it's done but what a way to go. Sign a contract extension and then decide a season later you would rather move on. Maybe it was part of the plan or whatever but football is a weird world nowadays. Fantastic player when his head is right, all the best to him.
  10. Why is it zonal or man for man and not something in between. Pick up the biggest threats with your best defenders and then the remainder is zonal.
  11. Unluck when he hit the post, it's a chance he created from nothing and showed some good footwork to make the opening. One of our very few positives over the two games.
  12. After sleeping on it. Can't believe I am saying this but he has to go. That was a shocker last night and another tactical nightmare for him. Yet to see him do anything to change a game that makes me think we can win anything under him.
  13. Very low to be honest. Had a free run when he came in due to injuries etc. Set out to rebuild a side. To buy players who would suit the playing style he has in mind. Looked absolutely lost tonight, PSV are an excellent team but no Rangers side should be taking a beating like that from a team who will be pot 3 in the champions league.
  14. We allowed Colak to leave because he wouldn't suit the playing style. Dessers looks very similar to Colak in that he would look better playing as a partnership or having balls delivered into the box from the wide areas. Only we have let all the wide players leave!!
  15. Not sure how accurate these figures are but you have to factor in the league we play in. Quite sure every player that signs for us will have more than one option and perhaps we have to sweeten the deal by paying over the odds.
  16. After Roofe he's the best goal scorer we have. His movement in the box takes the piss out of Dessers, Danilo and Lammers.
  17. Still our best centre half. Hardly had a pre season. Beale quoted a couple of weeks ago saying he wasn't ready for three games a week and then played him three games on the trot and Sunday will be four. Should have sat out Ross County for Balogun but I think his willing to play sometimes goes against him.
  18. Hoping whatever operation Roofe had last year has got to the root cause of all the injury problems he has had. If he stays fit he will be our top scorer.
  19. He was poor tonight. But apart from Butland no one gets pass marks tonight.
  20. Lot of comments about Goldsons error. But the games gone at that point and they are pressing us at the edge of our box. Reality is its goals one and two that finished us. Beales tactics of defending from 20 yards out and surrender 50% of the park until we are two down is the problem. Guys spent a fortune on a group of players and has absolutely no clue how to get them into the same starting 11. Dessers was completely isolated tonight and would have been more suited to how we tried to line up after the subs. Bought Danilo and talked about having two up top but has hardly tried it. Need to win on Sunday or he really faces genuine calls to go.
  21. This has always been the worry. Beale is a project manager. But we don't have the money to back projects and need a proper seasoned manager in charge very quickly to get the best out of the players already in place. I don't think they are bad players but he seems to have very little idea of how he wants them to play.
  22. Started passive and gradually worked our way to submissive.
