blueben_d 40 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Muffs team looks good, more likely to see Amac9's example though.I don't ever get the 'play whitty at RM' cries. He's pish there. Yes he can look decent coming up the wing but that's into the space created by the actual RM tucking inside. He's great into that space but when there's a man there to mark him, as there is as a RM, he's awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

H72 265 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Davis playing in the middle of the park tomorrow I can't see why Walter would drop Edu to accomodate for Davis in the middle. It seems common sense and I hope I'm wrong but I just don't see it happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueben_d 40 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Davis playing in the middle of the park tomorrow Source?Possibly suggests 4-5-1 as ness must play and you'd think Edu will still get picked? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueben_d 40 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Rumour has it Ness will be rested, if so that's a disgrace.19 y/o who has played a handful of games gets rested but no doubt old man weir will continue to play every minute of every match. It will also leave a central midfield partnership of quite possibly our 2 most out of form midfielders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allanger 625 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Would love to see us go with Muffs selection but you just know Walter aint going to see it that way.Looking forward to the game.It will be good if we can give a good account of ourselves and settle into a winning way after all the shit of the last week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 WALTER SMITH has revealed Steve Davis is to be moved back into central midfield to cover for the loss of Lee McCulloch as Rangers get set for a vital SPL clash with Motherwell at Ibrox tomorrow.McCulloch is having surgery on Tuesday to cure a knee problem and may miss the rest of the campaign.Smith is concerned that the loss of his experience will leave Rangers short in this area so playmaker Davis will be given a central role.The manager said today: "I can move Steve Davis back into the middle now. He is more experienced. When you look at Maurice Edu and Jamie Ness they have not played a lot of football in their careers for different reasons."We can move a few players around. We have players who can play in a number of positions."Lee McCulloch was doing very well for us and it's a blow he is out injured."In fairness to Ness he has handled it very well so far. He has hampered by injuries when he was younger coming through the youth teams so he has not had many games overall."I think the five or six games he has had for us represents the longest run he has had fit since I came to the club."He is handling it very well and he is playing very well but like all other younger players, when you bring them in you have to be careful you are not over-playing them."

Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 He really does need to make changes, unfortunately I just can't see it happening and fully expect to see the following 11 starting,McGregorWhittaker, Bougherra, Weir, PapacDavis, Edu, Ness, NaismithDiouf, JelavicIn all fairness if we actually took the game to them even that line up should be able to demolish Motherwell, but sitting back and protecting a slender lead and Weir's lack of pace will just make it a depressing spectacle.

Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 If Walter does do what he says then bang goes my line up, but it will be Davis and Edu in the middle and Ness being dropped to the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how i see it as well sadly.Davis and Ness for me would be a terrific combination of power,vision,attacking threat and a good combination of youth and experience. Weiss and Diouf out wide with Jelavic and Naismith up front.However the key to this game and every one is tempo. If we start flat the entire game will be flat. If we start fast,aggressively and in their faces we should win and win comfortably.I still have this nagging doubt though that it will be "as you were" from Sunday with the same line up and same tactics.

Guest Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 4-3-3 possibly with Divis - Edu - Ness in midfield and Diouf - Jelavic - Naismith up top. At least i can dream Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see the rest of this line up though and if we are a couple of goals ahead at any stage in the game then it would possibly be a perfect opportunity to see how Bartley handles himself at the back.
