Only need to look at what happened last time zungu, aribo and kamara were in midfield 

I think most said this before the game, don’t understand leaving both Davis and jack out

Need more from kamara and Aribo. Zungu is playing as holding midfielder. Kent been shite again but he can create something out of nothing. 

Thought Kent’s been decent today 

[BookWorm 4,123]

Give the boy Wright a chance.

He doesnt need them but having a shite player in Zungu next to you cant be easy

Zungu the new whipping boy 

Lads not done much wrong fs one loose pass I can remember apart from that he’s tidy enough in his role. Not done much going forward but nobody else has.

This , another fuck up nearly cost us from him, I still prefer balogun

Goldson pass was the problem not Helander.

[BlueVanguard 6,622]

Roofe and Davis on please.

Even stick Wright on and show us what he can do.

Zungu has been shite man.  A defensive midfielder at Rangers needs to do more than just lay it off to an open player, he isn't a centre back.  He has space in front of him to drive forward into or to pass around their press.  He just seems to lack intensity in his play and wants too long on the ball.  

He's here to try and win a permanent contract but he's doing himself no favours at all. Plays like he's in a possession training session with no intensity or purpose.

[GWR1979 1,964]

Brutal need a goal, Beaton ruining the game by blowing for Hamilton players falling over for a gust of wind. 

Kent has been poor, Itten couple of decent moves with Hagi but no service.

5 or 6 games teams have tried the high press but we still insist on playing out from the back. just don't get it

Yes because that's what we do. Need the midfield to get a grip and control the game. Kamara and zungu especially have been awful

Shouldn't be resting anybody until league is done, strongest team out every league game. 

It's that sort of thinking which is the reason why have a striker with only three starts leading our attack today, injuries and suspensions  will happen throughout  a season.

[BlueboyG 5,238]

Don't get why we don't play our strongest team then when the job is done we can fit Zungu or whoever in.

U joking. Kent has been sharp today. Fuck me.

About as sharp as a rubber knife he's fucking gash

[Howsitgoing 4,281]

Aribo came the closest, he should do more of that. I like Tav but he needs to understand delegation is an important part of being a captain, Hagi should of got the freekick.

It wasn’t a great pass, but should have killed the ball at his feet

Not for me today and I rate him as one of our best players

A game against Hamilton on this pitch probably isn't ideal for a player just back from injury. 

I am maybe being overly harsh but we shouldn't be taking liberties and being picky.  If he gets injured again then we have Itten as back up and Morelos about to come back.  We need to be going out to win games with our best players right now until things are won.  The only thinking I can see is that he is being rested for the next 2 arguably more difficult games coming up on Thursday and the weekend.

So far I've failed to see what Zungu was brought in for. I find him slow, not seen him use his height much against a team that plays long high balls all over the park. Hope he does a long ranger or something to show what he is good for.

[Henders82 537]

People complaining about Kent  FFS!

Got to paint living room so need to get a move on, 2-0 the Famous today will do😁

Can we come round and watch it dry for 45 minutes, please?

Eh? He can't take the ball from defence, fight for the second ball or turn when he gets it because Zungu is pish? No having that. Put Davis or Jack in Kamara's place and they boss it. 

Hamilton are pressing us in & we've basically played that half with 2 midfielders

Agree that Kamara has to try & do a bit more but the idea that he needs Davis/Jack in there with him to play well is miles off

I have been kents biggest critic this season but today he has looked good. You must know fuck all about football if you think he has been shite today 

[the old guard 2,323]

Playing out from the back only works if your midfield is good enough at finding space, so far this midfield are no where good enough.

Agree. He’s not untidy but in games like today being tidy in possession is not enough. We need the midfielders to lift the their heads and drive forwards with more intensity and purpose. Hamilton will be more than happy if we are stoking the ball around without any end product. 

[STEPPS BOY 73,900]

 Nothing in midfield and the 3 creative types( Kent, Hagi and Aribo) not offering anywhere near enough.

Davis or Jack on for Zungu and Roofe on for anyone of Hagi, Aribo or Kent.
