RangersMedia 35,961 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 If that fanny Edmundson hadn't fucked around with Jones he'd have got a decent amount of minutes recently and would probably have started tomorrow @Rangers_no1 has their manager said he's going to rotate his team ?

Very tight Group. I think all 4 teams can still qualify, drop to Europa or go out completely depending on results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt a Jack will make it. I’d rather give Davis a rest. So comes down to Kamara or Zungu. I expect away from home we’ll go with both. Jobs done, league is the priority. We will need Zungu in the league undoubtedly, give him the game time and increase his match sharpness. It’s a no brainer I don't follow you. It's the fact he's a totally different type of player that worries me. Looking at the way he plays, and the way we play our balance will be upset and could lose our fluidity. You could comfortably rotate the midfield a bit and not take a chance starting Zungu and keep things fresh with Dundee United on Sunday in mind. Job is done but there's still a lot at stake and it's a massive game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hadron Collider 30,883 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Strongest team, win the group means more money and seeded for the last 32. If we’re worried about Dundee hivs we’ve got problems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,836 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Aribo & Hagi need to start.They need the minutes. Same for Helander if he is ready. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 35,456 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Not sure what i would do tbh. Every game is a big game but we have 3 games in 6 days in 3 different competitions now and the aim is to win them all then we have Motherwell at home, not easy either but I’d be inclined to play our strongest possible team for the next week and bring in Zungu for Davis, Aribo for Arfield etc next Saturday.

BlueKnight87 17,286 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 McGregor Tav Goldson Balogun Barasic Arfield Kamara Davis Roofe Morelos Kent I think we'll start strong and see how the game goes. 5 sub rule in effect so can switch players off if needing rest.

I like that idea best tbh - start with our strongest team and if we get comfortable by all means make the changes and make the right ones. Guys like Zungu, Itten, Bassey, Jack coming on when we've something to hold onto are decent options to do the basics such as clear lines, go long, retain the ball/do nothing fancy and provide a bit of muscle. That's the ideal win-win scenario for me something to that effect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the fact we are all arguing about playing different XI's really shows how much stronger we are this year, last year almost every XI you seen was the exact same. Now I'd be confident of winning even with 7 or 8 changes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it's a reserve side but their main striker has an injury and their manager said (quotes on Daily Record website) that he rested players against Benfica to concentrate on their next league fixture and he thinks there's a good chance after speaking to his staff he'll do likewise for our game. What that equates to I'm not sure. I've no idea how many of their good players were missing against Benfica or what he's got in mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has always done that in Europe really. Think he’s (at times) underestimated the difficulty of the SPFL and prioritised the strongest players for European football. There’s also pretty significant prize money at stake. Keep chopping and changing, but I think we should go strongest 11 tomorrow. McGregor Tav Goldson Balogun Barisic Arfield Davis Kamara Roofe Morelos Kent Might be a start for Hagi, Jack, Helander or Aribo who are needing games - but only 1 or 2 at most.

.Williamson. 82,211 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Haven’t read anything in regards the lineup they will be playing but if it’s similar to the first game I can actually see us losing tomorrow night.

Tiger Shaw 30,470 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Chance to make history and win the group for the first time, never mind the money or the seeding for pure footballing prestige reasons we should be going all out to win, none Of this bassey at center back or putting players in for match time, strongest team possible for me. Modern footballers are fit as fuck should be no issues putting our strongest team out Thursday and Sunday. Will be plenty of time to rest players the end of January when we’re out of site and coasting to 55 🇬🇧😆 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
