Kamberi spent 59 minutes of the match offside IIRC.

Kent as a striker is an awful shout nevermind as a lone striker

might add to his 2 goals, yes 2, dont think people are going to realise how much we are going to struggle here without the buff.

[Johnsey 1,540]

Not an overall fan of 3-5-2 but think it could be our best option until the end of the season. 

Got to try something. Whether we try Kent up there or even Sakala. I'm sort of at a loss as to what we do without Alfie.

Fully expect Gio to play exactly the same with Roofe or whoever else in that Morelos role that never works.

Scored 13 last year, he scored some screamers too. The lad has ability, he just can’t consistently deliver……just have to hope he’s on form on Thursday.

Another example of alarmingly bad Management.

Not really cause we had to register enough scots or scots born trained or pish like that helander wasnt fit and balogun was

Thats because the players are thick and play like we have him when he isnt there, they did it when defoe replaced him pre covid, and they'll do it again

Can already picture tav and bassey especially firing a ball up to roofe, bypassing the midfield, expecting him to hold it up, or goldson dropping a 50yarder into the channels for roofe to go out to, who'll actually manage it, lay it off to either fullback who'll cross it into the box where our most natural finisher is still out wide having collected goldsons 50 yard hoof

If we win this despite latest shenanigans...it will be a miracle. 

1-0 to us.

It’s time for something to change with Morelos out. I’m not calling for the managers head just yet but if plays Roofe himself up front again I think it’ll be the beginning of the end for Gio, regardless of the result. He’s shown he can be tactically flexible so it blows my mind in some games where he sticks and others where he actively changes it to win.

I'd probably go for a similar line up, maybe with Kent ahead of Sakala and Kamara in ahead of the second Lundstrum. McGregor won't be dropped either but he really should be.

Gio pressers must be the most mind-numbing in world football.

Listened to about 30 seconds of his first one and had to turn it off. Not attempted to listen to any since.

Im not a great fan of pressers at the best of times, but if the manager is hyped enough it can engage you. GVB would put you to sleep though.

@.Williamson. there's a guy on FF asked Greg Marshall what time he can have a chat with him so he can discuss what him and his wife have to go through in their seats at Ibrox

Some managers can be really engaging and make it feel like less of a chore. Gio's just seem awful.

We did alright with Itten and Roofe up front at the start of last season.

I'm laughing at Gio saying "the focus shifting to Thursday now". Exactly what GT posted when he decided it was time to unlock this thread.
