Kamara is still levels above Davis and Arfield even when 'not at it'

His Napoli cameo begs to differ. 

[shaka 1,839]

Don't see the point of booing the team today.  The game is going exactly as most of us would've expected.  Do people really think we had a chance with the players we have available today.

[GersInCanada 7,775]

Awful 1st half.

[tom1780 1,257]

Even want to go tell the Union bears to just lay of the singing it’s not worth it

And you want Davis and Arfield kept on? Sands and King are having to push up beyond them to put Ajax under any kind of pressure 

I'd rather we had Lundstram but that's not an option is it? We can all see the problems but the solutions with who is available don't exist.

Tillman would flourish in a good side. We are dragging the poor cunt down 

👏👏👏 Bang on mate.

Barasic sends a high floated arc corner in while tadic whips his corners in at a decent speed set up to attack it. 

I remember Balogun scoring a cracking header in Europe… if only we could have kept him instead of spending millions on a Liverpool reserve..

Midfield is pretty much the disaster expected with Arfield and Davis. We are on the bones of our arse in both defense and midfield and not to sure the 4:3:3 is helping. For me one of the front three should come off and put Kamara in the middle to try stop being so exposed down the right. Games gone, time to concentrate domestically and avoid a going over at home.

[bam74 1,079]

Getting absolutely schooled yet again. Huge gulf in class tonight and, lets be honest, Ajax aren't really CL quality either.

[Swagger 8,944]

We create next to nothing. Colak is a goal scorer  - play him in a good side he scores for fun. Don’t really get him getting slated

I almost feel sorry for Davis… it was up to us to tell him his time at this level was up.  He has been a fantastic player for us, helped stop the scums 10 and now he is just creating bad memories tbh.

Both he and McGregor should have been experienced and mature enough to know when to call it a day. Both will end up damaging their legacy because they lacked the self awareness to quit before they became a liability.

Sakala trying his best but he can't lift the ball when he crosses.

It's bizarre, you just know he's going to sclaff it rather than bend one onto someone's head.

Need louder boos tbh, even that was half hearted.

Aye, even the booing is boring, no passion in it.

[Prso's headband 36,807]

A liberty that lazy bastard Ryan Kent continues to wear our shirt btw. 
 

Malik Tillman is right behind him. Stroppy, arrogant and chucks it when it isn’t going his way. Aye but he turns players

[ZZed 4,558]

So far Davis, Tillman are almost absent or losing the ball. Sakala, Arfield and Colak are trying. Colak feeding on scraps, Sakala needs to work on his crossing, has the beating of his man but poor end result. Defense is woeful, can't hack the pressure but have next to no midfield in front of them. The score depends on what Ajax comes out the second half.

There was more mobility at my Over 35 bootcamp tonight than there is in this Rangers team.

Some of our team where probably at your over 35 boot camp tonight

We all saw this coming when we failed to.invest the CL money .. 

Don't think we realised how out their depth our management team and players would be .. utter shambles 

Maybe the board saw it coming and didn’t trust Gio to spend it.

Hopefully he’s gone and the new boss gets to build something new

The way things are going this season if we'd invested in a couple of players they would probably be out injured. 

[theclothmonster 1,893]

Can't stomach watching Arfield and Davis any longer, fucking embarrassing this is our midfield.

[delparlane 6,001]

Listen to the difference in crowd support between the Marseille/Spurs game and our morgue. So fucking depressing on every level.

Kamara has been levels below for some reason this season and Lowry has played only a handful of games for us against poor level opponents and you want him on in the Champions League 2-0 down to Ajax? FFS mate.

Ok, then, let's continue to play two guys in their late thirties against players ten years younger and more skillful.

That makes no sense to me.

A perma-injured Liverpool reserve at that.

[STEPPS BOY 77,602]

Any bids for Alfie and Kent should be accepted in January.

Try sell Kamara.

The money that’s supposedly ringfenced for Tillman and Sands.

Spend it on midfielders and not a single signing now should be over 25 year old. I think we have enough experience already ffs.

[fin8577 416]

Arfield is like a man down tonight ffs he is absolutely shocking
