RangersMedia 35,961 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Absolute must-win game but I think we might see extra time and penalties. Worryingly the team looked tired on Friday night in the 2nd half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly now there is not many games we can look at and say this should be an easy one let's rest a few players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eosmhdo 1,879 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 We’ve had a lot of must wins this season so this fixture, imo, is an essential win. Come on Rangers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I can. I can also imagine the outcry if we progress, he gets booked and then misses the semi final vs the scum. I personally think he should start.

But having got burned before in the league cup, I think the management won't risk it. He's definitely starting. I think SG will be of the opinion that Defoe is an experienced backup for the old firm game if necessary. I actually think Lafferty has offered us more than Defoe up top when played though and Defoe just gets a game because he is Defoe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,729 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Gerrard suggesting he would start with Morelos https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/3968650/Rangers-steven-gerrard-alfredo-morelos-aberdeen/amp/&ved=2ahUKEwiWyZqOr_rgAhXFTxUIHRPjDScQFjAAegQIAxAB&usg=AOvVaw3h6a5MDA6vuXp8LfeQvryS&cf=1 And what he said previously.. "He is wrong to speak back to the referee the way he did. But, the big picture is that I am to blame because he had a yellow card and there was that risk. “I took that risk so I am to blame, big picture. He is to blame for getting the yellow card for answering the referee back because that is wrong. I am sure he knows that. “The referee got it wrong because he should have booked the Ayr player. But the person to blame is myself because I took the risk of playing him. I could easily have left him out and we wouldn’t be in this situation. “It would have come into consideration but when Lafferty is cup tied and I am not seeing the real Umar Sadiq, sometimes decisions… you have to take those risks as a manager.

He has to start imo That's your opinion. It's naive though to suggest though that there's absolutely no way he's not starting. It will be a consideration. I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the bench. Also wouldn't be surprised to see him start. Regardless, I'm just providing a bit of substance to the debate about it being cast iron certain that one thing or another will happen. Nothing's certain.

Every game is a must win game. Killie in the last round was a must win game, the tims at Ibrox was a must win game , Hamilton away was a must win game. Not debating he's dropped points where he shouldn't but you can't just point at the draws and defeats and say he doesn't win when it matters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
