*****The Official Braga vs Rangers Thread*****

[steven33jackie 2,017]

Only positive is that its only one goal to pull back. Poor performance all round tonight from the bech to the park.

Gio will try and put a positive spin on the game, but starting Sakala through the middle was comical, lovely guy but he has no clue how to play as that focal point. We used to have a front three that rotated positions but it all feels a bit regimented now. 

[MattyBlue 17,674]

Can just about accept the result, it’s achievable to Overcome, but the performance.. nah it’s done

nothing can change based on the available squad, miss Morelos too much

hoaching

[Colin Traive 23,870]

Eighteen year olds in their team and we are shit scared of giving our kids a chance. I know Lowry was unavailable tonight but he’ll thrive in the space you get in European games. We must have young forwards better than Sakala or Itten.

[Iggy666 2,967]

Scunnered with this pish. How hard is it to put in a bit of effort ffs.

Very poor, but would persist with 3-5-2 now for rest of season.

Has to be 3-5-2 we don't have a striker who can play the lone role with Alfie out.

I don't care who we've been howlin the night. Next week Ibrox will be rocking we will get this team over the line imo. 

Ibrox will be silent as fuck as always

[Allyup 183]

Still think we will do this at ibrox

[kanjo 26,490]

Don't think Gio really has a style.  Been a very poor 5 days.   It's scandalous how poor we are up front. 

[the old guard 2,442]

Could play till five in the morning and still not hit the target, what a poor squad we have, where the fuck are the goals coming from?

[Zappa6995 3,792]

3 hours of football and no goals, just about sums us up at the moment.

[GersInCanada 7,775]

Overall a very poor performance. Just can't see us winning by 2 at Ibrox but I am mostly wrong in my predictions.

None of our midfielders can play a decisive ball through the middle. Huge issue.

Look at the way those scumbags McGregor and Rogic do it. Cut teams open, while we go sideways and backwards. 

This is it in a nutshell. I'm old enough to remember the likes of Souness, Wilkins, Albertz, Numan VAN BRONKHORST even....all popping balls forward in behind defenders......our strikers running on and having fucking shots. Nowadays its an actual miracle if we have a shot. Fucking sick of our negativity. Just lumping balls out wide and down the wings isn't the way forward.

Who going to score them ?

I couldn't care who does I said get it back to Ibrox still in it we've done that. 

[Drunk and disorderly. 15,077]

Still in it. Gio should have made his changes earlier in the second half imo. 

We were nowhere near our best. Third gear game at best.  Should have done better. 

Let's see how they do at an absolutely rocking Ibrox. 

The semi-final is still within our reach.

Hope to fuck I manage to get a ticket!!!

[Graham 3,540]

We lost to Red Star. With lack of away goals rule this is not a horrendous result (performance aside). The difference is coming from behind - we have the fans to push us and the individual quality. The question is if we have the balls. I hope the players think theres a point to prove.

[qwerty 3,792]

We are PISH FUCKIN POOR

Listen I think your bang on but Gio still needs punted at the end of the season, the football is terrible

[ayro 3,518]

Hard watch but still in the tie.

Would go 3-5-2 or 3-4-1-2 going forward.

What a fucking terrible game. I've lost count of the number of stupid sideways and passes backwards.

 

Simple question. If not for "Big European games"...Why the fuck is Ramsey here?

 

Gio doesn't know what he's doing. IF and it's a big IF we get through it'll be down to Braga wilting in the Ibrox noise.

Agreed why have we signed him to sit on a bench. He done that at juve. Tonight for me is the final straw we need to get gio to fuck. Zero clue unbelievable i miss the gerrard passion

[Jamie0202 13,093]

At 1-0 down and 90 minutes to play at home we're clearly well in the tie. If Morelos was fit for next week I would make us favourites but without him I don't know where the goals are going to come from. It's not just his own goals either, he's invloved in so many of our goals where someone else scores, whether it's a direct assist or he's involved in the build-up.

League is gone so Sunday needs to be used to find an answer to our lack of attacking quality.

We will score goals next week the question is will we score enough. 

Sorry mate but there's little evidence we will.

Looks like Gio was hoping for a 0-0 result 

We definitely weren’t playing to win it

Shocking performance if we were

Went out for an early or late goal, which is fair enough if we can string enough passes together to counter attack, but the amount of easy passes tonight and against them that have been played behind our players feet is ridiculous for professional footballers.

[Sunglasses Ron 2,650]

We didn’t look like scoring all night, toothless up top.
