Popular Post Pure_Quality 3,295 Posted October 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2022 McGregor - Outstanding, should be no more debate about him still being our number one keeper. Central defece: Goldson - was superb, marshalled both guys beside him superbly. King - despite the penalty, looks to be a tremendous prospect, a few great last ditch tackles. Ben Davies - had a fantastic game, looks like a player we paid good money for. Given we've conceded too many goals this year in the league this should give us a decent platform to build upon. Going forward is still a problem, but tonight thought we did really very well. STRUTH82, cstamomusa, graeme_4 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForeverAndEver 71,779 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Yes there should still be debate Davies looked like the player we paid money for?

LaaRFC 4,793 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Only McGregor stopped it being 5 or 6 tonight. Not sure the defence should be receiving too much praise tbh. Domestically obviously we won’t be facing anywhere near the level of opponent we did tonight though. delparlane and gmcf 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davidorrp 285 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 We are watching a team on its last legs basically. Too many of the first team are past their peak, have regressed or are just phoning in performances. Too many have stayed too long. . Many of them should have been sold/let Go/binned by now. Alfredo, Roofe, Kent, Arfield, Davis, Kamara, Jack, Borna, Helander, McGregor ( I accept he had a great game tonight) and also for me, Tav and Goldson. It’s grim reading. Add in a manager who’s style doesn’t suit the players or to be honest Rangers. And it’s a bit of a perfect storm. Technically we seem to have gotten worse, our passing, style and the basics are woeful. Our fitness levels now look poor as well. We need to clear the decks and start again. But how the fuck we do that I don’t know. Will cost a fortune to replace manager and his staff and the players mentioned above, never mind get a new manager, who can do something with remaining players and probably a tiny budget. I don’t expect us to beat Liverpool on their own patch, but do expect us to give them a game. We just seem to have regressed so badly. Actually quite depressed about the season ahead.

Iakona 2,264 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Davies looks like a player that's still trying to build up his match fitness. It's very evident that his start to the season has been stop-start.. I think he will come good though. STRUTH82 and five stars 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
five stars 1,655 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Our 3 centre backs were decent but it left us woefully short in midfield. It may of been better playing 2 and having an extra man in midfield. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,529 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Agree with that. Thought MxGregor and the 3 centre backs were the only positives from the starting 11. Lundstram was the worst he's been in months. delparlane, glasgow argyle and SteveEarle 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may of been better playing 2 and having an extra man in midfield. We would have been better dropping one of the front 3 into midfield and pulling the other in closer to Morelos. He didn’t have a good game but was totally isolated up there with no one to link up with. If we had started with pace out wide as an outball then fine, but Tillman isn’t a Lacey winger and Kent has forgotten he is meant to be one. Would have been far better to sacrifice the wings, increase our chance of the ball sticking up front and have an extra man in midfield Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuistraHairDo 12,505 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Only positive is we should put the youngsters in for the next 3 CL games and concentrate on winning this league and try again next year. It's as if our players look like they know they are out of their depths and don't have the belief to keep the fuckin ball and play like we actually play week in week out instead of booting long balls up the park in hope. Same in first game away to Ajax Barisic and Tav truly awful tonight delparlane and Zappa6995 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 31,061 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Davies may very well come good. It's tough to play your first prolonged minutes against Liverpool, but I'm still sitting on the fence with him. Tonight, our fullbacks got nowhere up the park until Borna in the last ten minutes. Because we were playing three CH's, I expected more positive runs from Tav & Barisic. Goldson and, of course, McGregor were good. King was good but slightly over-hyped in here.

Valance1690 3,923 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Thought Goldson was superb, King good & Davies done alright, jury still out on him. King has to be ahead of Davies though on current form but he's 18 and will have a few more mistakes like tonight at Champions League level. The back 3/5 doesn't work for us under Gio, our 2 fullbacks aren't good enough to play it Surely the idea of the 3 CBs is that we'll end up with more guys in midfield & hard to mark wingbacks...we seem to do the opposite with it! gmcf and ForeverAndEver 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
