  1. Very disappointed in Gerrard. I think he should have stayed put until the end of the season. There is a league title to defend, as well as domestic and European cup competitions to challenge for. I understand his ultimate goal is to manage Liverpool and he probably needs to prove himself in the EPL first, but surely he could have waited until the summer ? I understand jumping ship mid season if it was LFC that was calling but not Aston bloody Villa.
  2. I concur. I like Gerrard too but he is a rookie manager who has surrounded himself bar Gary Mac with academy coaches who have no SPL or senior experience.
  3. Jones looked decent when he came on. Very quick and he stretches teams. We need a left footed full back overlapping to compliment him.
  4. We are crying out for 2 pacey wide players who can score and create chances, and a left footed left back who can overlap and get decent crosses in. Playing Flannagan at LB and 5 central midfielders across the middle of the park at home is pure madness.
  5. He has. Rangers 0-2 celtic: Steven Gerrard says he's 'part of why' side lost https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/sport/amp/football/49542393
  6. Gerrard as good as admitting that he got the team selection and tactics wrong. He never hides or shirks responsibility and will hopefully learn from today.
  7. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/sport/amp/football/49542393 Manager Steven Gerrard conceded his decisions were "part of why" Rangers lost 2-0 to celtic in the season's opening Old Firm game. Rangers are three points behind celtic in the Scottish Premiership after goals by Odsonne Edouard and Jonny Hayes at Ibrox caused a first loss in 12 games. But Gerrard refused to be overly critical of his side. "Maybe with hindsight you go back to the team you pick and the gameplan," he told Sky Sports. Edouard & Hayes earn celtic win celtic 'sent message' to detractors - Lennon Reaction & how it happened Which celtic player did you rate man of the match? Gerrard opted for Jerman Defoe instead of Alfredo Morelos up front, and pushed Joe Aribo forward from his move familiar midfield role at the expense of the likes of Sheyi Ojo. And he admitted that those decisions contributed to his side suffering just a second defeat in their last 19 matches. "I'll certainly analyse myself but I don't want to stand here and pass on the blame on to the dressing room," he said. "The dressing room has been fantastic for me. But I'm part of why it went wrong today. "Once the dust settles we'll analyse it properly, but it's three points are there's still an awful lot of football to play. We're four points better off than we were this time last year." While on the whole Gerrard was unwilling to blame his players, he had little sympathy for substitute Jordan Jones, who was sent off in stoppage-time. The former Kilmarnock winger was shown a straight red card after a late slide tackle on Moritz Bauer. "Without a shadow of a doubt it was a red card," Gerrard added. "I think Jordan was maybe trying to appease the fans - that's not how you appease fans. You do it by creating and scoring goals if you're a wide man, not by kicking people when the ball is 10 yards away. "He deserves his red card, he deserves his ban and he's got everything to do now to get back in my team."
  8. It was the manner of the loss that hurts the most. Hopefully the manager will have learnt a lot from today's poor team selection. Pleased to see he acknowledges he made mistakes in his post match press conference.
  9. Ojo has talent but he is as thick as 2 short planks. He will chip in with a few goals but will frustrate. Not the level required.
  10. I He is the biggest spoofer going.
  11. This is not a knee jerk reaction as I have had this concern for a while now, but I would question the calibre of the backroom staff that Steven Gerrard has assembled around him. Souness had the vastly experienced Walter Smith to bounce ideas off, but Gerrard has brought up former academy coaches with him in the likes of Michael Beale, Tom Culshaw and Jordan Milsom who have no experience of coaching senior pros. I have a great deal of respect for Gary McAllister but he has failed as a coach and a manager in previous roles. Gerrard still has my full support but I question the capabilities of those around him.
  12. I just hope both players are still with us by the end of the week, and the manager has that selection dilemma.
  13. There doesn't seem to be much in the way of new training kit available on the Gers Store Online website.
