So he’s only in there till others are fit but he can’t play there?

 

I've never said he can't play there, just that he won't very often.

He will be backup for this role, not the first choice as many predict.

Don’t think many do, do they?

He’s definitely not. He’s an utter loser

Think so, that's what I've been arguing about the whole time.

People have been saying Lawrence has been brought in as the first choice behind the striker, I think he will play more at Left Wing in rotation with Kent.

I think Tillman is going to be viewed as the first choice pos 10, with Lowry, Kamara and Lawrence all being options, but with Tillman as the main.

Just to be clear, am I just a partial loser, or am I also in the 'utter' category which would seem a bit harsh.

Lawrence was the main target when Aribo left which suggests he's the 1 who will fill the no10 role, matondo was the other winger brought in and Tillman will be the 1 who is used in rotation with any of the front 3. 

When you say rotation with Kent, what do you mean by that and how often? Is it a case of rotate from game to game? Are you suggesting lawrence only plays about 15 games this season? Just curious

Email just in from Rangers - Livingston will be implementing a ‘robust searching process’ tomorrow. Ooer missus 😱

GVB specifically stated that Tillman would fill the space left by Aribo I'm sure.

I think that Kent was a bit burned out last year as Sakala turned out to be a 'little raw' so was not really able to come in and contribute as often as we might have liked.

Would expect that he will get over 20 starts in the season and a good few more from the bench, with the majority being at LW, with a few other appearances between the other 4 attacking positions.

My point being, I think he will play far more minutes as LW than any other position during the season, but will still get plenty of game time.

I also suspect that 1 of Kent and Sakala will probably leave before the end of the window, I'm hoping it will be Sakala on loan.

Guessing it will be for flares incase the pitch gets burned.

Ideally someone sneaks in some napalm and does the whole pitch after the game.

[Prso's headband 35,918]

Can’t wait to see Mitre’s reaction when Lawrence finds himself on the left hand side of the box at a corner tomorrow. 
 

Left wing am telling ye!

I imagine so, but tbf, if the whole pitch was napalmed it would probably be a better surface.

Gets a lot of unjustified hate. Isn’t the level we need but he’s a damn sight better out there than the likes of Sakala, who is literally fucking awful

[.Williamson. 83,770]

It’s actually amusing when @ForeverAndEver doesn’t rate someone like Wright when he’s spent so many years arguing the case of bang average players in our teams 

[Rangers_no1 33,096]

Good to see Roofe is making his way back, another option for the bench and rotation.

Be delighted to have Morelos and him back sooner than expected.

Neither are actually good, Sakala provides goals
