    😂 I was wondering why you were looking for a link to the scum game when our game kicks off in 10 minutes.

    To be fair to Hagi he has something like 40 goal contributions in 99 games for us. What other midfielder or winger has achieved that in recent years?
    It’s actually pretty good for someone who doesn’t tend to play 90 mins every game… nor is he in the team every week and when he is… it’s not always in the same position. 
    He’s obviously got his limits… he’s not quick and sometimes he’s abit overly keen to make things happen, but he is a useful squad player. Plus at this point he’s most definitely a better option than Wright or Lammers.

    It’s a learning curve… not for the players but for Clement.
    He will only learn who he can trust by playing them… from what I’ve been led to understand he is the kind of manager who believes in taking players with him/improving them… however once you let him down you’re out on your arse.

    Good chance that this may happen to several players as this game at the Piggery tonight is developing in to the definition of a grudge match. With Atletico honouring their 1974 team with the replica kit and bringing along a couple of players from it, combined with FC, continuing to rage and greet 50 years after the fact, things were already set up nicely. Now I am hearing that Brentan has been bumping his gums about settling scores and running up a few goals tonight, going for a big win no less. I am sure that Simeone will have taken note. Obviously there is a chance that that Mhob might get a result tonight, but hopefully a fired up Atletico can rattle a few in and then concentrate on truly honouring the surviving members of the team of 74 in a style they will appreciate.

    I mean if you liked the story/lore of the second, then it’s definitely worth a play through for sure. The pacing is a lot different and it’s significantly less of a cowboy simulator… it’s just GTA, but in the Wild West.

    Theyve added a 60fps mode and it’s running at 4k. With that it surprisingly holds up pretty well visually!
    Wether it’s worth 40 quid is another debate entirely though. I’d personally wait for a sale.

    Only a few hours in. Much the same as before but just bigger and better… that’s not meant as a sligh as it’s exactly what I wanted it to be…. And all it needed to be.

    I'll expand then
    We are midway through October and he hasn't shown us anything to suggest he will come good. Usually you can see if a player has got something about him but we've yet to see it. It was actually comical watching him against Aberdeen at Ibrox. Running in to players and giving away daft free kicks and then the chance he scooped over the bar.

    I think he’s been absolutely shite, but he’s also probably been a bit unlucky.
    The OF ‘foul’ before setting up Roofe, very narrowly offside against Limisol, a few cracking saves from keepers.
    Wind blows the other way, and he’s probably not viewed quite as badly.

    That’s of course the best/most obvious example but there has been other glimpses of good link up play… it’s quickly forgotten because everything else he’s touches turns to shit or ultimately it didn’t lead to a goal. How often does a player get close to him or even get further up the pitch? not often. I’ve seen him play it through to Sima on several occasions… only for Sima to run into a deadend. Not to mention his work before the goal against celtic that was wrongly ruled out.
    Surprisingly a lot of people who claim to have watched players previously… haven’t. They watch a YouTube video and look at FM stats and act like they’re coming from a position of authority. Sadly it’s not even just posters on here.. some of those in the media are guilty of it too. Others just chat shit.
    I’m not a scout so I only really care what he’s doing in a Rangers shirt. At no point has he looked like a player who can chase lost causes or bully a defence all on his own. It’s obvious he’s not mobile enough yet we continually ask him to chase long balls and run in behind whilst remaining isolated. Our previous manager also thought Cantwell would do a job filling in at right back for Tav… So there’s an argument to be made that we aren’t set up to get the best out of our players.
    If we are going to get anything out of him he needs to be played with another striker who will get close to him and even beyond. 
    Obviously nowhere near the ability of Prso… but to me it seems like he would also really benefit from a Novo.

    For all Dessers faults this far; I think there’s a very strong element of Beale not having a clue how to utilise him.
    We have seen glimpses of his ability to link up and play a pass in behind… but when he’s isolated or being asked to chase hopeless long balls in behind, he’s basically being set up for failure. It’s clearly not his strengths. 
    It wasn’t working and naturally Dessers confidence is shot because of it. 
    Whilst that still leaves major questions over his mental strength. He’s got another chance under Clement to show he can still offer us something.

    Okay, I'll bite. You've caught me. I've been lurking on this forum for 12 years and posting to hide my true identity. And you'll be aware that when I made this account in 2010, most people believed we were formed in 1873 but its been proven to be 1872 hence why on the side of the main stand it still says 1873 in the picture added, sorry for not getting it changed to continue to conceal the fact I'm a lurker. Because I've had a go at Cantwell, which some others have, I'm a beggar? Nice one detective
