We leave the fullback areas open time and time again that's why I'm glad Flanagan stayed back this game (I'm still to be won over by him btw). If we are to encourage Tav and Flanagan to be wingbacks we need another CB so the 3 at the back can cover the wingback who is missing cause they've been involved in an attack. We don't have the right player formation to have 2 wingbacks running forward at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These early rounds of the EL are absolutely desperate. West ham, Psv, Ajax, Rosenberg, us and a few other big European names have been knocked out early on. Fuck the team we are expected to play and who humped psv are tied the now with a Moldovan side. It's a lottery. We need to improve. We need a creative midfielder, a ball winner and a striker.

Bears r us 30,556 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 First of all the 'cric -stream' was the best I have had and could see the game probably too well at times. The most important thing is we are through to the next round. I have not read all this thread but I can kinda understand the concerns of some and the other view that it is just the second game of the season opinions. I think what we have seen over the two games is the players that were not great the last few games of last season have so far not improved. The midfield tonight I hope will not be starting on a regular basis or we are in trouble. I think it is safe to say SG is no fool and will know that by now. The forward three were not good again and as with the midfield they will surely not be our main starters. If SG gets in the players he needs, some are already here thankfully, then hopefully the next game will be better. So not a good watch tonight but I am looking forward to seeing new players improving our starting 11. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still only have 2/3 players who have any right to be anywhere near a Rangers squad, Candeias, Tav, Morelos, Windass can shove their stats up their arse, we can find so much better. Gerrards downfall will be his faith in Tav, Morelos and Windass, if the league was half decent their stats would be absolutely fucking woeful and it wouldn't be up for debate. Unless we bring in serious quality we are still due several gubbings Well said m8. The stat twats will be all over you now. Not a fuckin clue or a brain between them.

Grundy 730 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Disappointed in that performance but good to hear the manager acknowledging our deficiencies. We need alternatives to Windass and Morelos, who was shite tonight. He can't hold the ball up and bring others into the game, plus he didn't score. If we get any offers for him over what we paid he should be punted, has a head like a threepenny bit as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we not learnt that what matters is on the pitch? Against the 4th best side in Macedonia, 'pre season friendly' or not I don't think it was good enough. I think he backs a lot of the shite players who are the problem and is already making the mistakes previous made before him. There is 100% a right for fans to be concerned.

BlueMe 25,327 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I've seen us play a lot better in Europe and lose. We looked like we had a game plan and stuck to it. We were never going to go there trying to press them and chase every ball, we didn't have to. I would've taken the draw before the match tbh, especially after last year.

Obviously the results are completely different but similar performances IMO. Miller/Niko won't be starting, neither will Bates when Alves comes in, Waghorn will be away. Rossiter, Jack and Dalcio will only improve. Cardoso looks good etc.. Yet the season was another disaster! Its hard for us pessimists to be encouraged by displays like tonight when its something we have seen before and unfortunately were correct about previous managers/players. Hopefully this time Ben, myself and others are completely incorrect but I'm far from convinced we have the players and manager to take us forward. I've said as much bit you've got to give it time. It's 3 games in 1 friendly and 2 el ties. We will be changing manager every 4 weeks at this rate. We need to.see where we are come.the end of the window. Surely that's no too.much to ask?
