If Morelos keeps scoring he will be away, maybe as soon as January, then who will score the goals, bring back MOH!!!. I accept money is important but the money available to celtic is limited and not enough alone to make us uncompetitive. We need a really good manager, good tactics and the correct signings to make a difference. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boaby Bear 411 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 The simple fact is we need a manager who has a proven track record of taking teams on a winning run especially at home. Pedro can't win 3 on the bounce, let that sink in ffs. We can't win 3 games in a row and we think it's going to get better. I don't see any progress in terms of a style of play or footballing ethos designed to get the best out of what you have available and build upon it. All but 3 players he's signed I give pass marks to. Dorrans only just, Jack and Morelos 2 good signings. We need him out. He can't get the best out of his players, the players told him how they wanted to play in pre season if I remember correctly, which says it all about his management style. He's being dictated to from the guys he's meant to be managing, which shouldn't happen in any managerial situation. He's not the gaffer he garners no respect from the players and his tactics are clueless. Some guys are are just better at being assistant managers and Pedro would make a cracking assistant somewhere.

All true, but without money you will not attract good players or a good manager, at the moment we have a team riddled with average players and the results show up that fact.

If the quoted figures are accurate, Pedro has to go down as the worst manager in history. St Johnstone likely spent about a fuckin tenner if they're lucky. no one knows how much or how little we have spent,even Pena’s transfer fee is a different figure in various places.

The answer for Rangers is employ a very good manager that buys well with our limited budget with good support staff. We really have got it very wrong. The current manager is simply put clueless.

We are not at the taces and never will be under any manager whilst this board remain in power. So where's the gap in quality? brown, mcgregor, armstrong, forrest, griffiths, lustig, in terms of skill, are only slightly above a decent spfl player. sinclair and roberts and teirney are particularly overrated and unable to make it at the epl level. And even sutton says gordon overall is weak. Their manager was found out in the epl - no team would touch him with a ten foot pole, his tactics caused humiliation for them last year and this year in europe, and they were beaten by semi professionals. There is not a huge gap in quality between the two squads, and, brenda is not even epl quality. The biggest and most painful lesson I ever got in football was watching a Rangers team with the most talent in scotland - a team that dominated scottish football, suddenly and for nine years be dominated by a team with less talent - the very same team I had watched Rangers humiliate, causing the birth of the ' Easy Easy'. Today we suffered those cunts chanting 'it's so fucking easy' for one reason and one reason alone - the massive gap in quality, not between squads, but between a manager, who failed in the epl and europe, and another manager, who is a fine bloke, but tactically out of his depth. Aye, we need King and the board to get the check book out alright but not for players - but for a manager with the tactical skills to, as the best managers do, make the players at his disposal play better than they are.

SIRB_72 3,987 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I feel like I change my mind a lot on Pedro. I think it might be to do with us dropping a lot of stupid points but at the same time our general play has improved. I've never totally bought into him though. He never improved the side he had last season, gave us some humiliating moments with that team and finished further behind from aberdeen than when he took over. For me if a manager doesn't improve a team initially it doesn't look good going forward. Here we are now after a 3rd defeat in a row to our rivals (none at the piggery might i add) under Pedro and I can't say much has changed my mind apart from I can see us playing a bit better than under Warburton sometimes. I didn't expect us to win the league this year (i dont think 95% of us did) but considering the budget he has compared to the rest of the league we should be comfortably second. Tomorrow aberdeen could go second and 6 points ahead of us. I know its 7 games in but he needs to sort it out fast! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Ally Scores Again! 471 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Pedro should be given another transfer window, we need more attackers/ wingers to improve what's already there. We are so reliant on the same guys scoring, a proper left winger who wants to hit the goal line and cross and someone to assist Morelos. I still back Pedro, it might not feel it but we are streets ahead of last year with warburton Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted September 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2017 56% believe he should be given time. Wow. Lets see how that list that I made last week is looking now... * Managed us to a 5-1 humiliation in an Old Firm game at Ibrox. * Handed the tarriers a Scottish Cup final place with a disgusting performance at Hampden. * Cost us a 20+ years long record at home to Aberdeen. * Managed us to categorically the worst European result in Scottish football, possibly British, history; an aggregate defeat against a side who finished fourth in the Luxembourg league. * Allowed newly promoted Hibs, managed by Lennon, to win at Ibrox in the first home match of the season. * Drew with ten-man Partick Thistle who, until that night, had registered just 1 point. And its newest addition; * Lost his third Old Firm game in-a-row, a 2-0 loss at Ibrox in a game where we failed to lay a glove on them. The guy is out of his depth; he has spent, in Scottish football context, a fortune on utter shite and is a fucking embarrassment when given the opportunity to speak to the media. We will achieve absolutely nothing under this man. greg1872, Rangers_no1, Johnny Dangerously and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

writingranger 1,412 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 no. It's time he was backed. He's fighting against the tide and sooner rather than later, that tide will turn. Look at the way he went after brown. Some say it's embarrassing. The media say he "claims brown elbowed Morelos". I say it's standing up and being counted. Eventually we'll come out on top because we have a manager with real belief. rfc_watp 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
