BILLYBOY50 1,638 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 We need a team with bottle and who want to be winners. at the club just now throughout the whole squad I would say they are few and far between. but at the end of the day the manager who brought the majority of them to the club Will have to either get rid of them or he himself will end up out of a job. As there is no way ourselves as Rangers supporters will put up with gutless displays such as yesterdays and during the week against the sheep it's now time for everyone of them apart from maybe one or two to shape up or ship out.

He knows it’s not good enough and he’s not defending the crap displays. And regardless of what he says in the media he knows the squad isn’t good enough and what he needs to do to strengthen it. He makes mistakes but he’s definitely not like the previous two or three managers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amokachi 3,050 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Personality & character is what he’s focusing on, which when you look closely we are seriously lacking.

They could all play a decent game if they really really wanted to. Plenty of them impressed at start of season. They have crumbled into oblivion now, for some unknown reason. Their lack of organisation and discipline on the pitch is disturbing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro and warburton would never have said the players weren’t following instructions. I’m glad Gerrard has said this but the answer has to be why? The players claim to love playing and training under him so why are they going against game plans? Is it deliberate? for me we have weak minded players that lack the mindset for scrappy 1-0 wins. Our most successful sides had lots of 1-0 wins or 2-1 wins that were ground out. They’re the victories which win titles over the course with the odd purple patch of form. We wait for openings in games instead of forcing openings, always that 1 pass too much and then the defenders have reorganised. The will to win at all costs is not there and to instil that into a bunch of players that have won zilch between them is going to be difficult. filling the team with killies,sheep hearts and hibs is not the answer cos they win nothing aswell. Loan players is not the answer either. We have to sign players that come from winning squads/environments and we have to start straight away Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big question is why? Extremely big problem if this is indeed the truth. It doesn't have to be the captain. Anyone within the team that is also concerned can tell them to buck up their ideas. In the forces, you rely on your squad. If you don't work together as a team, then we all played our part to sort them out. We helped strengthen the weak and sorted out the squad members who were not pulling their weight. This surely has to be the same idea? So why is it not being implemented? They appear fractured which is a concern. Im also concerned and i would love to know why as well. As you mentioned it is an extremely big problem if true and many questions must be asked not just why the players are refusing to follow instructions but more importantly what influence gerrard actually has over the players when they feel they can disregard any game plan and instructions given too them. Is this a simple case that gerrard is possibly too intricate in jis game plan and tactics where the players are not good enough nor smart enogh to execute the tactics or could it be the players dont respect gerrard enough to do as they are asked and just do what the hell they like? Either way i hope gerrard is the winner and either tells them straight or bins the ones responsible 16BlueSherbert90 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have expected a response today after how poor we were then, but just the same, no leadership apart from Allan Mc going mental and no one paying any attention to him. And that's the problem with GK captains. They are too far removed from most of the team most of the time.
