Johnsey 1,540 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Greggs is still the better of the two but I don't think the difference is massive. I just wonder with our build up play and possession if it's worth having McLaughlin in there instead. He's capable with the ball at his feet and often helps us launch an attack. McGregor is punting it long if an opposition player comes within 20 yards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The short memories thing is nonsense. Yeah he’s been phenomenal but does that mean he can play forever cos he was good in the past?

I’d be embarrassed if he didn’t make those saves in the old firm that were directly at him and basic saves for decent goalies. nik2402, GA1972 and the old guard 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smile 26,624 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 The Dundee Utd keeper looks quite good, I'd also be fine with McLaughlin I will admit McGregor is now showing his age. falkirkNS, HG5 and MacBoyd 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
holdnudgehold 61 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Peak McGregor no contest but It increasingly feels as though a high number of 1st shots on target against us result in a goal. Very few of those I can say McGregor obviously at fault but something not working. Maybe more to do with the type of chances we're giving up.

Yes I did that a thought today when has he really made a great save lately a bit like that dud they had last year. That along with a couple of clangers and his troubles from corners I'd go with Jon now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnsey 1,540 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 Just for a few, I didn't post this just because we dropped points today. McGregor is the more talented keeper but I still think for what we face McLaughlin would do just as well. My main issue is McGregor punting the ball up the pitch constantly. McLaughin would have helped get through that high press I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute short memories on here, ...and Hearts when he fucked coming out for cross... giving them a tap in at the 95th minute. Overall there's been quite a few goals this season that he would have saved in the years gone by. Goals where you wouldn't really lay blame at his door, but he could have done a lot better. It's fair to say his reactions are defo not what they used to be... Short memories has nothing to do with it. Don't get me wrong he's still pulled off some big saves and he's still my all time favourite Rangers keeper... perhaps he's became a victim of his own success and consistency in previous seasons - but it doesn't change the fact that time is clearly creeping up on him...

kelvd1873 7,673 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Mcglaughlin 100%. Mcgregor can’t claim a ball in the air, every team is exposing it and using it to their advantage. falkirkNS, Nk89, sassaaaa and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GA1972 10,324 Posted February 20, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2022 Been McGregors biggest advocate but he’s past it He’s cost us loads of points this season. I’m not having that he kept the score down in the scum game, most of the shots were straight at him and getting beat at his near post for the second was shocking His distribution and command of his box have always been pretty poor, in the past he’s made up for that by making stunning saves that win you matches and I honestly can’t remember the last time he done that this season. For me though I liked what I seen from McCrorie at the start of the season and he’d be getting his chance ElBufalo20, falkirkNS, JograBear and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo 33,345 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I don't understand why folk want to exchange a goalie that can't come for balls for one that doesn't make big saves. McLaughlin doesn't have that big save in him, so he's not someone that appeals to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 32,540 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 For the first time ever I agree that the thread needs to be asked. I've loved shagger but the signs are there, I know he ain't saving the second goal but he could have not at least attempted to dive? We are weak on corners. That has never been his forte. Perhaps a different route needs to be explored, All good things have to end. It is time to explore those options. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
northern bear 2,955 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 McLaughlin cost us a goal at home against Aberdeen for fucking around with the ball too much. He gave Goldson a complete hospital pass which they scored from Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondDan 2,386 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 McGregor's ability level has fallen off a cliff. His distribution has become even poorer, we are continually gifting possession to the opposition. He doesn't even make any attempt to try and deal with cross balls anymore. Hindsight is 20/20 but he should have retired after 55. I don't think McLaughlin is the answer though. Next season's side has to be unrecognisable from this, complete overhaul required throughout.
