Blue Viking 702 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Playing Defoe from the start - that baffles me..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misteral 2,932 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Defoe is definitely a bit left field today, but we know he's good so let's hope he shows us what he does best and rattles in a couple this afternoon.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdzKyle 7,836 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Not surprised Morelos dropped. Had to be with recent performances. Strange to go with Defoe but Gerrard is maybe thinking it will be scrappy and 11 behind the ball. I think he will score there 1st. But Harsh on Roofe and Itten. Maybe Morelos will come on and be hungrier? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe win a few free kicks/ penalties against their cloggers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhrfc 2,242 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Some firepower on the bench if needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Not got any worries with Defoe coming in along with Aribo to be honest. I think the two of them link up well and I fancy Aribo to cause a bit of mayhem in the box and Defoe to snap it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goianegra 4,682 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Defoe could be a bit of a master stroke. Probably won't get too many chances but he's still our 4th choice striker. Would have had Itten up there personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKnight87 17,281 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Weird choice defoe against a side knowing for it's physicality Just get the job done today rangers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemdog 39,389 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Just win. I'm not going to comment on the team, they know what they need to do. C'mon the Famous! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GersInCanada 7,775 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I have no issues with the team. Defoe was left out of the Europa squad for exactly this type of domestic fixture. He will do his job for 60 mins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 11,478 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Defoe is unexpected but I'm not upset about it. Been very good for us and has a great scoring record for the amount of time he's played. I'm sure there's a reason for it. Never thought Roofe was going to start, given Gerrard's comments he's going to be eased back in. And I didn't want Morelos to start so ideally would have been Itten but I'm not worried about Defoe. We have 4 top strikers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueMe 25,327 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Happy enough with that team. More than enough to beat Livingston with plenty of options on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuggy 1,308 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Well Defoe was our top league scorer last season, but fancy Roofe or Itten will be on 2nd half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bornabear 6,202 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I think he's picked Defoe as livi are a physical side, we don't want injuries to our forwards ahead of Thursday's Europa game. Brave decision though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
