All to often our back line are pulled out of position due to a lack of trust of the outfield players to track runners, or put in tackles before the opposition can do real damage.I do agree some individual performanceces have been piss poor. The only time we have looked half decent has been when Mccrorie has played in the defensive midfield role. We had centre backs today as part of a defensive 4 get pulled onto the touch line. Better players wouldn't cost us the shape or the goals we've seen conceded this season from all our defensive players. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,526 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Bates was almost as bad as Martin today. Remember this performance when you're greetin over your pint about him leaving. It'll make you feel better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howsitgoing 4,281 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Even if we only could replace 5 players this season then a back 4 with a new goalie is who we replace. Not a single one should be kept. An embarrassment to our club and themselves and they need to get to fuck especially tav. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie0202 12,261 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Agreed but it's not just the back 4 who are to blame for the amount of goals we have conceded. We lose a lot of goals due to players running off our central midfielders. It took Goss about 3 seconds to decide to mark Allen today but by the time he got to him it was too late and he had scored. Definitely not the first time this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bighouse 1,012 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Hibs have put 32 goals past us in the past three seasons we have been in the same league (2014-16, 2017/18) Let that sink in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumours of Carragher coming as a defensive coach is good but he is no miracle worker, all the current Rangers defenders are needing punted. They are the number 1 reason why this is yet another season best forgotten. Wit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying Wilson and Bates would have been the answer but to lose them both and to constantly play Russell Martin is baffling. Never looked solid ever since Walter left. Losing 4 and 5 goals in a game isn't only a reflection on he defenders, but on the team as a whole. As they say, you defend from the front. We are overrowded with heartless, spineless mediocrity. Yes, the backline needs replaced, but I do have some hope for John, but that midfield is also as weak as piss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had one, or even two, capable CDMs in midfield protecting the defense it would help out immensely. Just look at the job Brown does for celtic we need that type of player in our midfield breaking up opposition play and putting himself about. Our midfield three has been powder puff for two years now and the main reason we've been overrun by opposition teams. If we win the midfield battles we'll spend more time on the front foot and that's what needs to happen next year. Certainly two new CBs should be brought in but we need an entirely new midfield 3 as they've been our Achilles heel for 2 5 years now. 3 corrected the only bit I disagreed with Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence8722 0 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 We should never have got rid of Danny Wilson. Who I would love to see at Ibrox is Ryan shawcross... I'm not sure if we could afford him but he's exactly what you want in a Rangers defender. I also think Jonny Evans might be worth enquiring about. I was talking to someone earlier about this but I think we need to strengthen the midfield. Most top-class teams have a good midfield and we need a midfield which is better than anything other teams in Scotland, including celtic, have. We could maybe look at loans and try to get someone in who we couldn't, ordinarily, afford. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluenoseCanuck 64 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 100% agree but if the Tarriers are the standard to beat then we need new players in midfield and up front too because we only scored twice in 5 games against them. Plus how many sitters did Morelos miss? I think adding a few defenders alone will help us take over second spot for sure but not enough to challenge for the title.
