    Our best attacking player by some distance is a RB who will cost us several more goals this season at the other end, we scored 3 more than a celtic team that wasn't statistically much better than it was under Mowbray.

    celtic will bust a gut to absolutely finish us this season and there is zero chance they will be complacent, it's head in the sand stuff to suggest journeymen like Candeias and extremely inconsistent talent like Windass and Morelos will get anywhere near the depth and quality they have, our attacking options are bench players in ideal circumstances and it's just idiocy to suggest otherwise.
    Our attack has been shocking when it's actually mattered, I don't know when it's going to sink in that we play absolute shite most weeks to the point that guys like Boyd (now) and Boyce have coasted it in recent seasons, that's why we continually beat poor sides and go on a small run, get over-excited in time for an OF then get another wake up call.
    We have two CB's and one has been described as a 'baby' who needs eased in, so the defence is vastly over-rated until proven otherwise for a prolonged period of time when it matters.
    Gerrard has inherited a mess, I'm happy with this being a season of transition from his point of view, but the boards investment has been average at best and they will cut corners to save money without a shadow of a doubt.
    Mark my words by the end of this season those in denial will have nowhere to hide when it's plainly obvious serious investment and ambition is needed and that we have very, very few players who should even be in a Rangers squad.

    Does that automatically mean the board will suddenly invest and show ambition? We have been told we are 'nearly there' and have now ran with the 'top scorers in Scotland' bullshit line, which is embarrassing to use here never mind when you are Dave King.
    Key players for next season are pretty poor options, not every signing will be a good one, the depth is shocking, it's the correct call to expect the board to invest further and consider this only the middle of what needs done in this window.
    History shows that we over-rate signings and current players, under-sign, under-invest and naively sit in denial until we are ripped apart and the club is left financially fucked with a squad that needs rebuilded, this will be worse than ever before if anything goes wrong this season so I believe its correct to pile on the pressure and cut the bullshit for once.

    If Cooper is signed we are still well short at CB and a couple of injuries away from the type of quality that will see us torn apart, that trend continues throughout the squad.
    Right footed LBs are horrible to watch and affect the way a team plays going forward, never mind one as defensive as Flanagan no matter how solid he is, he is our best RB.
    Goldson shows that if we put money into the club and show ambition we will improve vastly, it's up to the board to continue that trend and leave celtic in no doubt they are in for a battle, no excuse is good enough IMO.
    I still think this board will go down as the board that saved the club but set it back a decade on the playing front.

    Worrying that several posters and now Dave King have ran with that line, Leigh Griffiths would comfortably be our best player and is 3rd choice by some distance

    We have never laid a glove on celtic in an attacking sense, even the 3-2 game we absolutely shat it and our goals were hardly free flowing football, it was obvious we would shite it 
    We need a good 3/4 attacking signings just for this season, if we don't have enough then how do we expect to have enough when it inevitably goes tits up because we didn't invest and the full squad and staff need overhauled?
    Will Dave King and the board ever learn that one season leaving everyone in no doubt we will be successful costs less than 4 seasons ripping it up and starting again?

    As usual, it’s always someone else’s fault.
    When is he going to stop blaming others for things like the TP decision, the appointment of poor, unknown managers, a SD contract that he signed (and bragged about last year), and poor playing staff?
    Does he not realise that a loan is not an investment into the club, until it’s converted to shares? Loans weren’t okay to Houston & Co when it was the Easdales or Ashley - now they’re okay?
    He says he’s over invested in the past 3 years? He stated he would invest £50m, or was it £30m, over 3 years - where is it?
    Going by our two games in the Europa League, we’re no closer to the bheast than last year, apart from our defence looking more solid, so I hope he’s not going to stand by and watch SG ruining his so far great career, as he fails to support him with the readies for a better quality player.
    The guy is preventing investment, he’s never out of court, and he’s NOT invested as he said he would.

    Someone else with their eyes open. 
    Can’t believe guys like that think our defence is sorted all of a sudden when the shit we just played walked through it about 5 times or guys from the past two seasons of 5-1, 5-1, 4-0, 5-0 defeats against these bastards and losing out to trebles will now manage to be amazing and skoosh the league when we have finished 3rd!!! Twice in a row.
    Too many fans burying their head in the sand , we need to be better than this Gerard is getting us no where with what we have.

    So Miller did it all on his own? All 4 goals last season?
    Morelos got service, scored a good return 1st half of the season then went off the boil. So far this season he has continued in poor form, missed chances, looked poor overall, and is more often than not everywhere but where the ball is put on a plate for a no9.
    It's a fallacy to suggest that more or better service will resolve this. Morelos is more of a problem right now than the lack of chances being presented to him. And worse, out of all outfield players he appears to be contributing the least effort so I wonder how much he actually wants to work to turn it around right now.
    Needs dropped.

    Just read more of the same ''we scored more than celtic pish'' in another thread, our attack is fucking shocking and you'd need to be blind or in denial not to see that.
    Our best players are all absolutely pish and will contribute nothing when it matters, celtic have THIRD choices who would be our best player at the club by some distance.

    We are beginning to accept even less than mediocrity.
    The defence looks alright but massively over-rated, Tav alone will cost us countless goals and do we really think it's good enough to defend for a non-existent midfield and attack for 90 minutes in big games?

    Gerrard continually mentioned the lack of quality in the final third today, so it's up to him to make serious changes now because even our best are nowhere near good enough.
