British_Empire 9,648 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 He's mince no two-ways about it but I'm at the point where there's no point keeping on saying it (unless it's to make a fresh point in regards something else). We got rid of a guy with more ability & who's more direct in Murphy to those Edinburgh fenians this afternoon and we've got another similar to Murphy in Jones, on the benches that's nowhere near the pitch so this is 100% on Gerrard. Don't know what else can be said. Sure, you could argue all 3 are not good enough for Rangers if you want, but 2 of them are considerably better than Barker - which makes it strange.

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,268 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 He's just really poor. Every other position you can see why the player gets opportunities. Last week he was OK but today reverted to worse than normal. I challenge anyone to watch that today and define his strengths. I actually would go as far as to criticise Gerrard for not taking him off by the hour mark. He offered nothing til then, nothing after it. The same way Morelos is punished for actions, a poorly performing player needs hauled off and dropped, like Hagi also was previously. I keep hearing hes excellent in training. I know guys that are sensational in 5s, they're not pro footballers either cos ultimately its ability in real matches that count. I'd love to see him moved on, doubt there's a foolish enough club to bail us out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creampuff 22,628 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 He’s clearly talented, but his bottle is absolutely non-existent. You can almost feel how hard he’s trying and it’ll never come off for him if he doesn’t learn to relax. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That chance in the first half; He was clean through, to either take a touch an shoot, or cross, and he did neither. He just ran a bit further then let the defender shoulder him off the ball. Genuinely one of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever seen a Rangers player do. Trust me I've seen a lot worse.....fucking waghorn running the ball out against the papes.....van vossen open goal against the papes....Ally Maxwell dropping the ball at the feet of Brian O'Neill against the papes....I guess I don't like mistakes against the papes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

writingranger 1,399 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I thought we saw the best and worst of him. I think he has some talent. He's you and raw, with fragile confidence, but he can help turn games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not denying that. I’m also not denying Barker isn’t great but he’s not given time. Barisic got branded a dud, people wanted Morelos punted for a few million a year or two back. Know it’s just wishful thinking but he might get better in time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
beararse 6,324 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Jury’s out on him....that said, I thought Kent and Barker’s movement caused all sorts of problems in the first half .... it’s not necessarily what you do with the ball, although that helps enormously .

Far too talented for that. People need to remember he is only 21. Remember Kent at 21 or Aribo - hot and cold last year? There is a big future ahead for Hagi at Rangers. A little patience is needed.

Prso's headband 34,990 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Don’t think he’s that bad tbh. He’s no been our worst player the past two games. Says a lot about the rest of the team, more than it does about Barker tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes some players time to settle, granted. Barker has been here a year and is still like a fish out of water. He's being given opportunitues and not really grabbing them. There's better atvgge vlub never mind out there who could eadily do what he can / has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HG5 10,946 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Had a decent enough game last week, then proceeded to undo it all at the earliest opportunity. A couple of decent crosses apart. Not the sort of player that wins you titles. (Go on BB - prove me wrong!!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter huistra 1,740 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Gerrard is stubborn as fuck and will play Barker so unless some team comes in and bids for him he's here part of the squad for the foreseeable. But surely there is better youths at the club like Kennedy who would do just as good or most likely even better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pace to burn does not equate to talent. Two good feet is laughable. Occasionally swings in a good cross. Makes the odd good run which means fuck all when you canny do anything with the ball.
