*****The official Rangers v Crvena zvezda match thread*****
Valance1690 replied to G.E.C.'s topic in Jimmy Bell's Kitroom
Superb result, some unbelievable individual performances, well deserved 👏 -
If Gio doesn't win the league from the position we were in when he arrived & with the squad he had vs the tarriers he won't get that opportunity in the summer. In hindsight he should've pushed for a few of his own players in January because there's no way those signings were his first choices! Somebody above said if he gets papped out the cup on Sunday then the fans could easily turn, they were about 15 minutes from doing it on Saturday! He's 1 bad result away the arse falling out from the whole thing & on current form that's not far away!
-
The recruitment was a disaster before Gio so I would be inclined to agree that in some sense he has been hung out to dry Think we were all expecting a tough manager who wouldn't be walked over and who understood the club...that would suggest Gio is the opposite! If his targets were Sands/Zukowski + 2 late loans of Diallo/Ramsey then he can't be trusted in the summer. If it's Wilson dictating terms & Gio is the scapegoat then we need someone in with a bit of backbone

Pedro was shocking, no doubt but he was similar to Ange in so many ways. Theres a reason managers like that dont appear in European football until their 50s...they're bang average at best...Bodo clearly showed that in their pre season when they dominated the taigs over 2 legs! Completey agree we were complacent but if he wins them a title from the position both clubs were in last summer it's an embarrasment
-
Agree in hindsight we should have, especially if he wasn't going to get backed properly in January. Never expected him to stroll it but there's no way we should be in the situation we are in. They have backed their manager but he's brought in bang average players and got them playing well, we're the opposite under Gio. If we lose the title there's absolutely no way he stays on & tbh I don't think we could trust him with the rebuild we have ahead.
-
Sure he won a couple of titles in Australia & 1 in Japan over a 3 year spell...Pedro was something like 2/3 titles in Mexico before us and a few cups Both only had real success in their own countries, both in their 50s & never even managed in European football. The fact its worked out well for Ange so far doesn't take away from the fact he was a ridiculous appointment
-
They spent less than what they sold They brought in a complete unknown manager, their equivalent of Caixinha, who has brought in unknown foreign players for cheap & paired them with a few average loan signings Without even thinking about our January window, any semi competent manager should have had us winning the title this season, especially given the position we were in when Gio arrived & our squad If he doesn't win the title I'll be absolutely stunned if he's here next season.

*****Official Rangers vs Aberdeen match thread*****
Valance1690 replied to .Williamson.'s topic in Jimmy Bell's Kitroom
Posting those stats from 2 wins & 2 draws pretty much sums up the issues we're having Dundee United & Mothwell especially the shots we had weren't even chances, we actually lost the 2nd half vs Motherwell 2-0 btw but that wouldn't fit the narrative of everything is fine & we've just been unlucky would it? We've been going backwards at an alarming rate under GVB, Wednesday & today we got lucky to come out with 6 points, don't think either keeper had a save to make & the players look clueless -

We were 1-0 against Hearts after a shocking 1st half, start of the 2nd they missed 2 really good chances (that other's have been taking recently) then they fell apart We have alot of possession, alot of passes around the box but we create fuck all, can't remember Lewis actually making a save today, seems to be a theme under GVB Before the winter break I thought we were playing good stuff, since then we've been piss poor whatever way you look at it -

Completey agree, you get games like Livi over the course of the season, can't expect good performances every game but you hope you get the result We haven't had a 'good' performance (domestically) since the winter break, even the 5-0 against Hearts flattered us, they had chances a 1-0 before they fell apart! We needed a good performance, today was the time to do it, at home against a piss poor team & with the fans on side...instead we put in that showing More questions than answers today definitely -

Valance1690 replied to .Williamson.'s topic in Jimmy Bell's Kitroom
The same Aberdeen who are sitting in 10th, have been piss poor all season and are going to struggle to make top 6? Tarriers dominated them, didn't score but had chance after chance, we barely troubled Lewis & fluked a goal...big difference! Delighted with the 3 points but if you don't think that goal saved the whole stadium/fan base turning on Gio then you're more in denial than I expected -

UB's are the only ones who deserve any sort of credit from today Up against a piss poor Aberdeen side, we should've been looking to put 3/4 past them and bring some confidence back Instead there's still massive questions around Gio and the squad going into next weekend (forget Belgrade, the players themselves will turn up for that) & the fans today were as close to turning on Gio as I've seen since the Warburton days That Roofe goal may have saved his job, especially after the shit this week -

Horrific performance, terrible attitude from the players and some crazy decisions from Gio Fluked a win though so continues on to next week -

The songbook last night v St Johnstone (A)
Valance1690 replied to CR3's topic in Jimmy Bell's Kitroom
Don't need enemies when our own fans are moaning on twitter about what's being sung Nothing wrong with anything last night -
2nd half was about 'surviving' the game according to Gio No wonder we are playing the way we are if he's installing that mentality into them
-
Would rather we called out things that are going wrong when we're winning rather than wait until we drop points for the ball to finally drop Our performances recently have been shocking, we scrapped a win tonight and aye I'm happy with 3 points but fuck me a half decent team at least gets a draw tonight
-
Any other team in the league gives us a game, they played like a team sitting towards the bottom of the table and struggling for form Tonight should've been a 3-0 confidence booster before the sheep on Saturday, instead we left with more questions than answers Some really confusing decisions/perfomances & the manager seems completely lost.
-
All it would've took was a lucky bounce like Motherwell/Ross County If you're happy with tonight then hell mend ye, that was fucking shocking & Gio's inability to even give us a lift with a change or 2 sums up how clueless he is at the moment
