Swagger 8,944 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Jacks a decent defensive midfielder. Ejaria and Coulibaly are both a waste of space. Problem is there’s not much to replace them with. Rossiter has talent but is liable to break down at any minute and McCrorie isn’t great.

Smile 26,624 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Ejaria looks every inch a youth player in the Spfl. Gerrard has a blindspot with him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole team was brutal yesterday but I see the same pattern from Jack in most games. He's a player I don't get the love for Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblueal 2,117 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I think the shape of our midfield doesn't help, without arfield it's flat with all looking to occupy the same space. Probably part of the reason we can't find a cutting ball, everything goes side to side and it's ponderous because without Arfield no players are advanced Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

King_gazza 1,065 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Ejaria has his moments when he can pick out a good pass. Like when he passed to Morelos to win the pen against Rapid....That's all I have. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think either him or Mccrorie will provide a better option than coulibaly on his current form. Centre mid is our key problem area. We didn't invest in the summer there, due to other issues in the squad. This has to be addressed in January. I fully expect Gerrard and Allen are looking at this, but how much money they have to play with is the question I'd honestly terminate coulibally's loan, we have better options than him and can always strengthen in January. How bad is rossiter training if he can't oust coulibally or jack. Come the summer I wouldn't be disappointed to see the back of most of our centre mids.

Ross-Gazza genius 2,041 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Ejaria flatters to deceive, looks good on the ball but creates absolutely nothing. The only midfielder I'd keep is Arfield! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
butthole 159 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 9 minutes ago, Rangers_no1 said: Never really understood when people were praising Ejaria, average footballer in my opinion. Jack is every bit as average but gets let off for some strange reason. Harsh on Ejaria, though he has been pish, he has more talent than Jack! He is so average it's unreal. One paced (which is slow as fuck), dominates nobody, inspires fuck all, is allergic to the opponants half. Does it bother no one he hasn't even come close to scoring a goal for us. No idea how many assists he has for us, probably close to zero and fuck all. I get he is a DM but a Rangers midfielder needs to contribute more for us than he does. Yes he has mastered the sideways pass, fucking hallelujah. Please someone tell me what his other attributes are? All I see is a limited footballer who found his level at Aberdeen. Coulibaly is too similar a player to Jack for them both to play together, especially in the SPL where we should be dominating teams. He's also been dreadful recently right enough. We need a leader in the middle of the park but we have a squad full of inexperience. Ejaria and Rossiter are only 21. Coulibaly is 22 and McCrorie. Not much first team experience with all 4. Arfield is a huge loss when he is out. Rangers_no1 and Cedrick 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These two donkeys were both going out their way to avoid getting the ball. Cowards. When did he try and beat his man? Twice in the first half then shat it, gerrad was shouting a few times at him for it, grezda shouldnt have been dropped for him, were you watching the same game?
