A few saying they liked the look of Dowell. For everything good he does, he does something else awful. Horrendous ball across the box. No tracking back at all for their third goal. I’m not impressed because he had 2 bursting runs.

Goldson may as well stay back at corners. Useless.

Today he did well. Great commitment and physicality. Not the striker we need but no complaints over his performance today.

The game made clear what we already knew. Tavernier and Goldson are not worthy leaders and do not have the bottle required. Having said that, we also do not have better alternatives in their position. Ridvan coming back and having midfield of Lundstram, Sterling and Cantwell would have made a world of a difference. If this is how we line up in the next OF game we will be fine. Sima is absolutely quality.

Definitely his weakest area.

Kieran Dowell absolutely disgraceful in the build up to that goal. Not even an attempt at tracking back.

Lawrence should be replaced by Cantwell. We can all see it. Surely Clement must.

I actually think he could be right. No organisation in midfield. No strategy up front. No heart.

Toothless and indecisive up front. Our two “leaders”, Tavernier and Goldson posted missing and at fault. Are we still surprised? Games like this show you how well Clement has done with a set of poor players.

Realistically the inclusion of Wright is only because Ridvan didn’t make it. Sterling would have surely been right of the front 3, but is needed at the back. Then it’s a decision between wright or McCausland as Sima has been out for ages. Cantwell has proven time and again he is not effective on the right - Lawrence selected over him.

Spot on 👏

We’re actually slightly better off on goal difference than we were at the start of the weekend 😂

Silva did very well. Mcausland needs a wee break and a bit of bulking up. Definitely a player in there but found this a bit too physically demanding today in my opinion

Fair enough. He’s only scored 11 goals in 96 games. I’m not holding out any hope he’s the goalscoring midfielder we need

It’s been the same since 2008. Really should get round to changing it

Nobody. I’m just trying to work out why there’s suddenly a lot of pressure on our new midfielder. After today’s lack of incoming striker, I’d have thought the pressure would be on the front line, Silva and Dessers in particular.

What an odd comment to make? Pressure to perform as a striker?

There’s an old saying, “better for people to think you’re an idiot than to open your mouth and confirm it” Replace “idiot” with “cheat”, “corrupt” or “inept” and it still applies

Mcausland is the least of our worries. He has potential and has been thrown into the starting lineup because we have no other options. It’s a damning result of our previous horrendous DOF and poor managers that followed. He played ok today. Not his best game but he showed more creativity and fight than an experienced player in Cantwell.

If nothing else this game puts to bed the Masonic refs claims. 2 reds and a penalty not given. Mad

Not really. Many of the team were decent enough that first half. He was poor. It’s allowed to be called out.

Dessers and Tavernier not good enough so far. Worrying as their defence is there for the taking.

Controlled the game today. We’re never under any pressure. Solid in midfield. Work to be done up front but good enough. Happy.

I don’t disagree. But the bar was low. As I said, it’s a minimum expectation met. That wasn’t happening before.

Tbh I actually feel sorry for him. He didn’t choose his price tag. Like most players he jumped at an excellent opportunity to join Rangers. I do believe he’s trying, but that’s actually the sad part. He’s just not good.
