Popular Post RangersMedia 35,961 Posted September 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2019 The 1 positive today. Absolutely excellent defensively and tried to get forward and support Aribo, who should have slid him in instead of having a shot in the 2nd half. Between him & Barisic we're OK at left back, despite the hysteria. AGM_72, Bigsasasfloppyhair , Bad Robot and 10 others 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I agree with the last sentence. kelvd1873 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essandoh 21,212 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I agree he played alright today but two OK left backs isn’t really good enough if we want to win silverware BlueAvenger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Brackley Bluenose 4,479 Posted September 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2019 Offers nothing going forward and in the modern game that’s a huge aspect of the role of a full back. Especially when you’re playing with 5 fucking central midfielders. BlueAvenger, docspiderman, Escobar and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrards fault, play a winger who stays high up knowing flanagan behind him is solid as fuck He was my MOTM today, shocking given he's the left back, shows how fucking bad we were Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has nullified celtic's best/most dangerous player in every game he has played in against them and he got forward today quite a bit but Aribo was lost on the left Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geronimoo 1,474 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I thought he had a decent game today. He made himself a shit load of space today out wide, but we still have this thing where the players believe everything has to go down the right.

Broxi 11,504 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Thought he was decent today too. Him and Davis were good. Katic fine other than a mistake towards the end but it was a sizeable one. Jack was alright. That's it Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brackley Bluenose 4,479 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 He did try to get forward I’ll give you that but if you watch him he’s always trying to go onto his right foot because he hasn’t got a left. It’s not good enough at that level. BlueAvenger and docspiderman 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laudrup1984 25,100 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Who would have thought left back would be the least of our concerns today. Solid again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.E.C. 18,800 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Played well but the fact he was our best player in an Old Firm game is alarming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will never be on the level of Artur Numan but I find him a decent worker who puts a decent shift in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goianegra 4,682 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 He was decent. Dire and extremely one dimensional going forward though. Wish we could merge him and Barasic. There's a good left back between the pair of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,330 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 He done his job but he need's a winger in front of him instead of a centre mid as he brings absolutely nothing offensively. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creampuff 22,628 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Honestly thought his being in the team hurt us today. Not his fault, though. Celtic gave him 40 yards of space all game and it cost them nothing. Should’ve been Barisic. We simply can’t play a leftback that can’t play with his left foot.

KBOO72 4,375 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 When your motm in an old firm game is an out of position left back who can't use his left foot and is terrified of crossing the half way line or even playing a forward pass you are in trouble. Played a steady 7 out of 10 today which I'd fine if the rest of the team are hitting 8s or 9s but we were miles away from that today. Pass marks to him, Davis (7), Katic (7) and Mcgregor (7). The rest underperformed massively. Malkytfp1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueKnight87 17,302 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 One of the few to get a pass mark today. Defended well but offers nothing going forward. With a narrow front 3 you need the full backs to provide width. That's not part of him game. SeparateEntityMyArse 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEPPS BOY 74,013 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Just like the Aberdeen semi final last year, they loaded up down right knowing that if we shifted ball to left there is no attacking threat. If he is to play left back then we absolutely must play a winger ahead of him. five stars 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
