Amac9 2,060 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Is why we don't play like we did yesterday every single week. In the second half yesterday we pressed Motherwell, got the ball down, passed it about, got our creative players on the ball, created chances and could have won by a few more goals. When we do that we are capable of beating teams with a bit to spare as well as playing with a bit of style and confidence.It is the one paced starts, sitting off opposing teams, letting them dictate the play, the constant long balls up front and lack of tempo that has cost us this season. Against most teams in the SPL we should be dominating matches, creating chances and winning the game by a few goals but these defensive 1-0 games and sitting back will prove to be our downfall.

Gazzalivesforever 2,001 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 We'll struggle to get out of 2nd gear against Heartd and stumble to a narrow one goal win as usual... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iBear 1 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 It's usually because we give inferior teams too much respect and let them pass the ball about in our half with almost no pressure until they approach the box. Lost count the amount of times I've lost the plot because Rangers can't seem to grasp putting pressure on the opposite team.It's actually baffling how we can scrap out a awful 1-0 win against Hamilton then proceed to decimate teams like Motherwell sometimes.

Jordo 33 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Both our CM's actually played well on the same day is a big part of our performances in those games. We bossed the middle in those games, too often Edu, and by his own standards, Davis, haven't turned up and we've let teams dominate us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
minstral 5,375 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Because when Walters back is against the wall and we have to win, then he has to attack. If we had done this in every game instead of giving teams to much respect, the title would have been won by now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raligt 2,541 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Hopefully Ally can continue the attacking mentality from that 2nd half into the last few games of the season and really go for it.Also continue it into next season and buy some real quality attacking players. Bring back Weiss and buy a quick creative striker. Goodwille is a good option but I still think if we have the cash we should look overseas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
