Defensively we have been fine, although unsure if thats due to us or Motherwell.

Van Veens a handful thankfully it’s all happening outside the box.

Sakala for Matondo. Kent has been our biggest threat despite being far from his best.

Definitely Sakala for Matondo and I’d give Ridvan 45.

[Ivybank 4,846]

Losers the lot of them 2 chances in 45 mins pathetic

motherwells first chance will be agoal

[Bluerod 358]

I fell asleep during the first half 

[Inigo 33,326]

Kent and Matondo are grim. Tav is poor.

[Scottywellhousetb 52,393]

Absolutely fucking pathetic and dreadful performance, it will continue as long as he is manager, he doesn't have it to turn it all around, we've weeks of this shite to come before the inevitable happens.

How can people still not spell Barisic properly?

because they can’t spell Borna 🤣

[superallysbears 8,199]

The day can't come quickly enough till Gio is out the door, do it now and we'll still have time to turn it around but they'll wait until it's gone.

Why not play Morelos behind Colak?

Gio won't play both. He simply won't change. Another reason he needs to go. This is dreadful to watch.

Why not play Morelos behind Colak? Morelos is used to coming deep anyway, anything to connect midfield to attack. Gotta try something, endless high balls out wide is just brutal to watch.

Especially when your RB and LB both can’t fucking cross a ball

yet Matondo has been far worse than both of them

You could change any of the the team

other than GK and two CH’s 👍

[molesmole 1,370]

If Tav is Injured (apart from Zero cover) why is he playing......

The crossing today from both flanks are so poor.  But we have 4 players out on the touchlines all the time. But they do nothing with it.   Kent and borna take each others space all the time.

Matondo and Tav are invisible. 

Need 2 up top away from home. 

3-5-2 

Change it now.

Motherwell? 

Inverness to Motherwell, Aberdeen to Motherwell, Dundee to Motherwell, no doubts  quite a few have travelled from Ulster and England, so yes long journeys to Motherwell.

[NeoGeo7 11,269]

The writing is on the wall now surely for Gio.

if he’s instructing the team to play this way, it’s on him.

If the players aren’t doing what he is instructing them to but he won’t make changes or drop the repeat offenders, it’s on him (and the players).

We are simply delaying the inevitable sacking, the board should have acted on Thursday.

[WWTC 2,460]

This isnt getting around. We wont sack him any time soon but we’re just delaying the inevitable. We’re alarmingly bad all over the park, and its as if we just set up players and say to them to go out and play. Ive seen amateur teams with a better sense of identity and direction.

Totally agree, this looks like it could be the end.

[Johnnyem 233]

I thought Gio would last until the end of the season, but if we don't win this game today I think he will be a goner this week.

[WeeJacksonRFC 647]

Anyone who says Gio is the man to lead Rangers either doesn't know football or is a complete brainless twat - cause he has turned everything into a shitshow

Why play 2 strikers when we have an invisible midfield ?

[Inigo 33,326]

Barisic gets the abuse when he's again been the better of the two fullbacks. Not saying he's been good, but he doesn't deserve abuse over most of the other of those players that are clearly worse.

[ritchieshearercaldow 22,389]

Our passing is shite, our link up play is shite no control in mid field can’t lose the markers and too slow getting forward.

Brona wouldn't be happy with some of the attempts

That was difficult. Never tested the keeper in a full half of football and not for the first time. We can all look at players but the system is fucking shite.

We needed to see a reaction but we haven't. Needs to try something, be it two up top, different style something because what we've just watched isn't good enough and will cost him his job.

He sent a clear message to these players that it's acceptable to be inadequate and take a 7-1 drubbing and you'll be selected again.

He won't but. He'll sub off Colak second half and throw alfie up top. 

He's showing like feyenoord fans warned a stubbornness to keep playing the same approach no matter what.

Felt Tillman was the best of a bad bunch tbh. Terrible finishing though.

He needs to be putting chances like the one at 6 mins away
