100% is. No question. Hes also much better at talking to his CHs. Its clear to see.

Get a ball high in that six yard box and see who the better keeper is.

II’m actually more annoyed watching that than I was watching the defeats this season. Apart from the first 15 mins that was a terrible performance and we were honestly lucky to come away with the win. 

Completely agree. I'm raging after that second half.

Clearly Jon has proven that that is a myth? How many goals conceded from corners? No goalkeeper anywhere near them. There is also more to the game that "box" work.

And for my 1000th post (since i wont let it be negative)

 

Thank you Queen Elizabeth II for everything you have done for this country in your 70 years.

 

God save the King!

That's down to the rancid zonal marking and what Jon has been told to do.

Difference between us and the peados is they have players who can take a chance, they pass and make better opportunities and they have learned to defend

I see nothing in our style of play that will change that, what we do in training is beyond me

When they play teams they murder any belief they might have with how ruthless they are. We are so wasteful, teams always think they'll have a chance.

No it was unpinned like others, will be down the pages.

Looked through to page 6 (mid August) and wasn't there. Also when I searched "goalscorers and assists" on the forum, titles only, every other years' thread came through except this seasons one

That performance was so bad I actually feel like we dropped points today.

A neutral would say we didn’t deserve a win

I could agree.

[King Jela 20,727]

We can't surely still be debating who's better out of McLaughlin or McGregor? 

Neither should still be here but McGregor is automatically an improvement on Jon. 

[esquire8 43,856]

Did we only make 2 changes?

As long as the European money keeps rolling in I think they barely care about the  domestic game. 

Posted previously they'll take 2nd place and euro runs every season.

So you think they enjoy people coming up to them in a shop/restaurant and saying “jeez, that was shocking, mate”?

I’m also assuming that they support Rangers, as we do?

As for “money keeps rolling in”, they’ve not got their hands in the till ffs - never understand comments like that.

You’re right. That’s a win but it’s some of the worst I’ve seen from us this season and that’s saying something.

Squad is poor but GVB needs to go. Random selections and there is nothing about him to suggest he could inspire anybody to up their game. 
Anfield could be carnage

The operational side of the club is rotten to the core. Since we're unlikely to be lucky enough to see all of them get the bullet at the same time, I'd settle for Wilson and Van Bronkhurst to go today. The rest can be weeded out over the coming months.

Right through the club but the manager needs gone too. That was unwatchable

They literally give zero fucks about the support. Theres a plethora of evidence of this since Robertson came in the door and gradually filtered down.

Just checked your topics history and you're correct it's not there, maybe it's been hidden? I know admin can hide posts, unsure if they can do the same with topics.

This.  

Should be identifying weaknesses and working to eradicate them.

And also working on improving strengths but we don't seem to have any at the moment.

Another insipid performance and it's showing no signs of abating.If Gio would at least come out and say he is unhappy with it, at least that would be a start.

  Kent needs dropping now,he is not playing himself back into form in fact the opposite is true....

Only Gio knows. What was the point in starting him on his path to match fitness by giving him an hour on Wednesday only to give him no minutes today before the 2 week break? 

Absolutely baffling. 

[Negri's lovechild 14,766]

Poor performance and tactics aside, we clearly need new blood in key areas of the team. 

We need a new keeper. Neither of our two main keepers are at the standard required anymore, and it's obvious McCrorie isn't getting a look in. 

We actually need a fair amount when i think of it. We need the spine of the team replaced. Keeper, 2 reliable and commanding centre halves, a forward thinking central midfielder, and 2 wingers who will take their man on and commit so we can get bodies forward. Colak and Alfie are fine up top. 

A lot of work needing done to the squad. We look sluggish, out of ideas at times. To me that's symptomatic of a lost confidence in the system and managerial team.

[Swagger 8,395]

Salah is struggling this season - roll up GVB and co to take the pressure off

You could say that about McGregor as well... Jon Mc has not impressed me at all. He might come out for passes a bit more, but he is a much inferior keeper to McGrefor that it more than evens itself out.

This.

If anyone had any doubt about that fact the whole Fat Ange homecoming tour debacle should have settled it once and for all.
