*****The Official Rangers v Union Saint-Gilloise Thread*****

[bluenoz 30,848]

Score earlier and I can see them crumbling. Feeling confident.

[The true baller 972]

Everyone going tonight as per usual play a massive part in making the opposition shite themselves, and that's what they tend to do at Ibrox.

[King Jela 20,364]

Undecided on this. I wouldn't be surprised if we came flying out the blocks with a couple of early goals and go through in the end. 

Also wouldn't be surprised if they caught us early and went 1-0 up completely killing the atmosphere stone dead. 

[Scouse_Legend 399]

Mountain to climb as their gonna do a killie and have 11 men behind the ball, be hard to break down. That said, with ibrox rocking and we come out gung ho with an early goal then there's a good chance their arses collapse and game plan falls to fuck. For me it'll come down to adrenaline and passion  to see us through as this squad isn't quite ticking tactically as it should be right now.  We can do it. Come on Rangers 🇬🇧 NO SURRENDER 

[LewisWATP 299]

Bricking it for this game, really need a strong first half I think or they may kill the atmosphere. Need to be all guns blazing tonight, no passengers. 

[delparlane 5,660]

Just smh at all the “easy win” comments on here, thinking on how many times in major competitions we’ve been put out by teams dismissed as “shite” or “minnows”. Hope to fuck I’m wrong and everyone can say “told you so” afterwards, but I’m honestly shitting it at which team of ours turns up tonight. Fingers crossed it’s the aggression of Hyde and not the docility of Jekyll. 

 

[heathen fish boy 8,581]

Need a goal in first twenty to spook them, otherwise it's gonna be a hard night ahead

[BlueAvenger 10,242]

Massive game. I have to be honest and say I’m not confident at all based on our form in the last 3 games. Hopefully we come out the blocks and give it a fuckin go. Come on Rangers 

[BlueThunder 8,454]

Expecting the worst but hoping for the best is how I’m feeling right now.

[JackAlex93 11,281]

Right in about them from the start Rangers. Don't let them settle, get an early goal and get Ibrox bouncing

[TEFTONG 60,130]

Fucking intae them Rangers. I'm all Ready. 

[cr3_bear 14,872]

Scored at least two goals in every European Ibrox tie under Gio 

that was the stat I was clinging on to going into the Leipzig game so fuck it am using it for this one aswell 

[esquire8 42,768]

A bit nervous. Think we have too much to do but theres always hope. 

Better not start with a back 3. Lundstram has to be the only holding midfielder. Push Tav and Yilmaz all the way up. Tillman and Lawrence in the middle. My crazy pick would be Arfield wide right for the counter press.

If we get through this then I think we will qualify for the group stages.

[AberfeldyBlue 1,550]

Keep Alfy on bench to come on against tired legs, keep them worried that he is coming on

[ritchieshearercaldow 22,137]

The pundits saying we’ll win 3-0 or 2-0 at worst.

Kiss of death 
It’s hard enough to score 3 against SPL shite never mind having to do it under pressure 

[MaddistonKnight 1,567]

Not confident. Have my comfy spot behind the couch set out for the long night ahead.

Hey hum.

McLaughlin

Tav Goldson Davies Yilmaz

Tillman  BigJohn  Lawrence

Colak Morelos Kent

Kent and Morelos off after 60mins, Wright on. Arfield on as well, for those late runs. If Yilmaz struggling, get Borna on, with his crossing ability. If early goal, 3-0, if huffing and puffing a bit, 2-0 and win in ET. I'll take penalties if it takes it, lol.

 

[The Specky Forum Organiser 64,752]

Hopefully we have drugged up Morelos so he is good to go full pelt for the full 90

[LaaRFC 4,755]

Lawrence is scoring a screamer tonight 

[sausagetrunks 6,022]

if Gio picks the right team and tactics weve no problem getting thro, its down to Gio, he needs to take the handbrake off.

Don’t agree, that’s the first stage. The players then need to go out implement the game plan, take their chances, don’t have any fuck ups. Then, finally the officials, including VAR team need to do their job too

Don't match days drag.

I have already played all 90 mins in my head twice. 3-0 the first time and 4-0 the second time as the VAR decision went our way and Tav slotted home the penalty.
