I hold Gerrard's against him too for the manner in which we lost to Malmo, but for me it's not on the level of Kaunas, Zizkov, Maribor. Absolutely, but Gerrard hasn't had the luxury of any automatic entries. All the other gaffers had a solid foundation to build upon for their domestic success after taking over. Perhaps only Smith's second tenure, his Manchester season, is different as he had inherited a shambles. But even then - he didn't have the same baggage. You could argue Advocaat, but commercially, financially etc we were nowhere near the shaky ground we had when Gerrard came in. As I said, he's not a perfect manager by any stretch but he's obviously a good one. Particularly for his age. To argue against that, as some have been, is pure reactionary nonsense. I say that as someone who is appalled by how he has left. Gerrard's success required him to actually rebuild the sort of foundations that existed pre-2012 for every Rangers manager. Yeah at times smith had auto entries, but his euro record doesn't have the benefit also of being boosted by beating the likes of st josephs etc, walter, advocaat, even eck all had one qualifier, no competitive games beforehand, to get to the CL, smith winning 7-3 in Russia, advocaat beating parma over two legs, hell even eck beating copenhagen away from home after Ferguson done a runner, Gerrard done great in europe, but arguably he didnt do any better than his successful predecessors, and as i said the rest of them were winning cup and leagues at home while doing it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I explained that he would never have had that power anyway . So if there is any truth in that story shows he had gotten too big for his boots and forgotten why he was actually there .

Smith got last 16 in 10/11 did he not, PSV, also 16 in 06/07, although he managed one round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for every kaunas walter had, he had a CL group stage, think he had 6 group stage campaigns overall (might be more) Plus all these other gaffers won many domestic honours while doing it in europe I asked you this the other night and funnily enough you didn't have a reply Are you seriously comparing Advocaat spending 70million 22/23 to winning 5 domestic trophies against what Gerrard spent to deliver 1 league....if you are I seriously want to know what drugs you are taking? Advocaat was signing good standard international players for 4-5 million without batting an eyelid, Gerrard was spending 1.5-3 million on players like Katic, Grezda &Goldson, eventually he would get to spend 7million on Kent Jeezo Jim that is a ridiculous comparison to be making Ps fuck knows what that 70million would equate to in todays money.....well over a 100million I would suspect.....just let that sink in when you are genuinely trying to make comparisons Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
