Shuggy 1,308 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I am taking nothing for granted here, players need to be focussed and ignore this "spartak in disarray" story. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a good team, and still have a few internationals in there. We will need to continue playing the way we have at home with any chance of winning. Great opportunity for us to put ourselves within touching distance of the next stage. We are a young team though, and others shouldn't forget that. Shows you the difference in reporting though where a much more experienced celtic team are ok to go and get a regular pumping ( "brave"), where as they pile an expectation on us to win every game in europe. Yet if we did win every game in Europe we wouldn't get any credit for it from the Scottish media. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Not fussed if they have left players at home, it’s 11 v 11 and we need to be better. 3 points is huge for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The taigs loss was talked about as if they had just played a team on par with Barcelona. Our win over Rapid was talked about like we had beat a team on par with Accrington Stanley. Mate you’d have been forgiven for thinking Rob McLean had just learned his maw had died when Morelos scored the third. He literally said Morelos slots in for a bonus goal, 3-1 Rangers lol. I watched BT sport highlights of the tarriers game and you’d have been forgiven for thinking cellic tv was on when they scored their only goal. Once the third went in they claimed Salzburg were favourites to win it haha. They got to the semis last year tbf but no-one has taken into account teams like Spurs and one of Napoli and PSG dropping into it. They’ve painted it in a way that if we don’t get out our group it’s a travesty and a joke, remember we were pot 4. Whilst pot 2 cellic are struggling like fuck in their group and it’s made out to be some sort of group of death. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true. Look at the scrutiny (and rightly so) on our away from domestically. Then compare that to their away from in europe. If our form were that bad it would not be taken in the jolly way theirs is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People forget we are bottom seeds in our group, the amount of qualifiers we have had to go through as well. It's been a bonus for us getting this far nevermind potentially getting out of the group.

You can imagine how they'll react if we lose. " Rangers crash to Spartak reserves" . Total pish. This lot will be better than Vienna and if we win itll be a great result. 1 hour ago, the old guard said: This will be tough, don't let the media build us up for a fall, need to be 100% focused and ready for this, hopefully Morelos keeps his form and runs them ragged. Yes the media are at it, I just hope we keep focused and get a good result, as in any win. Thinking it will be easy would be a huge mistake but I think Stevie G will make sure the players do not fall for the negative news about their team. The atmosphere at the last game was fantastic and I hope we are doing the bouncy again with 10 minutes to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Most Euro sides are skilful, good on the ball and patiently knock it about. Give them too much respect and time on the ball they inevitably go away with a result. Get stuck right in and play to our potential will get the crowd right up for this and we'll get the win.

Valance1690 3,830 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Optimistic about tonight but the media are really playing up this 7 players left behind shite. Breaking it down to the actual truth... Luis Adriano is suspended so was never able to play. Denis Glushakov (their captain) & Andrey Yeshchenko have both been booted to the youth team for the last month so haven't been playing anyway. So they've actually left 4 players behind who might have played to give them a rest for a 'more important' match on Monday apparently....all sounding like mind games to try and offset us a bit and (if we win) to make it sound like the win was to be expected. Don't see the media coming out at talking about Barisic (50/50) Dorrans, Murphy or Arfield...4 players who could've had the potential to play Don't see Gerrard or the team letting that get into their heads at all and hopefully we come out all guns blazing in the first half and blow them away Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
