In Summary Pedro had the poise, tactics and personality to be a good Rangers manager, but he was short on time and Scotland didn't suit him, I wish him the best . Just a couple of points. Mendes was not a legend although I get that he was a very gifted player and scored some exceptional goals.  Also I agree about Pedro having personality but tactically I thought he was very poor and his choice of signing also very poor in many cases.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sausagetrunks 6,102 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Anyone who thinks Pedro is a football manager is as clueless as him. I honestly think anyone on the site could do as good a job if not better. lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Alves v Hill Cardoso v Kiernan Jack v Halliday Dorrans v Holt Candeias v OHalloran Morelos v Waghorn Windass v Windass (Windass under Pedro was a much better player than under MW) John v Wallace Tav v Tav. (also much better player under Pedro) oh and bringing in McRorie and telling him he was going to be a star after MW basically dumped him. yeh, we didn't improve at all under Pedro.
