Barisic.

He isn't going to get back to the level he reached for 55. That player is gone.

If he starts for us again with Ridvan available it's beyond worrying in terms of our manager.

Same with Kamara, he's a man Down

Absolutely zero justification for starting Barisic again unless Ridvan is injured and, even then, I’d play King or Devine ahead of him.

He’s finished, get him oot before the window closes.

[Ibrox_Nights 429]

Should, and probably will, be the last game he plays in a Rangers first team jersey.

I don't think Borna was the worst player in a Rangers jersey tonight however it was just another example of him absolutely bottling another big occassion, he's got a wand of a left foot and the quality he actually possesses in his delivery should be ideal for Colak, you'd imagine Gio would be encouraging him to ping into areas for him to attack but almost every time he gets the ball his first instinct is to play the safe pass, now if he's playing to instruction that's baffling, if he isn't then Gio needs to make an example of him.

I've never seen a player who so many times allows opposition crosses to come in whilst standing about 6 yards away. I used to think there must be some reason for it, 2 managers and different coaching teams have failed to address it. Never watched him at international level, does he do the same for Croatia? Just some of the stuff seems so basic to fix but never seems to happen.

Shitebag and coward. Rinsed and repeated from the game at the Piggery. Can't believe he is still here. Been at fault for at least 3 goals this season already. 

[Prso's headband 35,949]

Yeah I’d quite happily see him go and I say that as one of his biggest fans. 

[magic8ball 27,904]

In his first season when he was poor there were a few who backed him ,I was one .After that game at the piggery that was it for me .One thing a pro player can’t get away with is being afraid to do things .With him it’s everything.Scared to go near players ,Scared to go past players .Plays the safe pass every time ,losing any impetus for the whole team .

He had 2 or 3 decent games towards the end of last season ,But that’s it now it’s game over for him in a Rangers jersey ,He can’t be trusted .

[Hadron Collider 31,416]

Sell. 

[KeyserSoze 14,713]

Attack down our left. You’re going to get some joy 

 

[KeyserSoze 14,713]

I did notice Ridvan waving his arms in plenty space high up on the left for a pass from Sands who decided to give it square to Goldson who gave it square to Tav who knocked it back to Goldson.

Ridvan showed more urgency, dig and impatience at his colleagues in the few minutes he was on than the uber-passive Barisic has done in months.

Serious questions if Ridvan doesn’t start from now on.

Will be Yilmaz's back up and that will be all.

Croatia have moved on from Barasic, as we should have.

He was in their last squad and played against France in June.

Won’t be. 3-0 at their place in February should have finished him. He will be here awhile yet

Gave him the benefit of the doubt after the celtic game because I've always liked him, but that was it for me last night. Time to go. He only plays now if Ridvan gets injured. Pocket 2M and say thanks for the service.

[blaudrup 5,578]

Is he being coached to play like that?

To instinctively go wide forward until he gets the ball then go back the way at all costs?

Doubt it seeing as we've signed someone who appears to want to do the exact opposite.

Could not agree more Colin. 👍

It should have done, I agree.

Think he will be away by the end of the window, though. He wants a place at the WC and unless this Turkish lad is Stale Stensaas then he is not getting game time.

[Laudrupsleftfoot 11,382]

Some of the criticism is way over the top here.

He was barely helped down that left side at all last night for a start.

[Sunglasses Ron 2,558]

He had a bad night last night. Like all of the team.

Aye he and Yilmaz when they were on were left in no man’s land half the time. Still has to be 2nd choice going forward though.

Did anything change tactically wise when Yilmaz replaced him? Cos in a fraction of the time on the park the young lad beat a man down the line twice, got a cross in, and got a shot away. He showed desire to influence things.

Barasics contribution was a decent free kick, schoolboy defending with him ball watching as a one-two got played over his head, and toe poking the ball to a goal scorer.

He is due all the criticism he is getting as he's a man down and he knows it.
