The Specky Forum Organiser 65,030 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Tillman. Kent and Morelos improved a bit between January and March before reverting to type. Can't say he 'improved them' but he's getting the best out of Raskin and Cantwell. Think the majority of this lot are beyond that stage.

rangersross 6,530 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Cantwell certainly isn't looking like a ~£1.5M player under Beale. You could say the potential was always there and he just needed an attitude reset, but that's no mean feat, and if MB can keep finding talented, unconfident players and getting them firing again, we'll make a fortune and be an exciting side to watch.

Unionblue 3,645 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 He talks a great game , have my doubts to be honest, hope I'm wrong but why bother booting Gio for another guy who can't get Rangers motivated enough to pump the filth ? Fair enough the squad is full of players who have done their day and all but its not encouraging at this stage, I can't say I've seen him "Improve" the game of any of our underwhelming squad.

Clearout needed, for sure, get rid of everycunt who can't hack it at Rangers. In his first 15 league games, we earned 10 points more than in the 15 games previously (i.e., all the league games GVB managed this season). That's almost a 25% improvement in points with a team whose motivation is dropping every week as more and more of them get closer to leaving. I think that's pretty good. graeme_4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmcf 34,312 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Think it's a mentality thing more than ability . My worry for Beale is that as much as he was involved in the tactics when previously here that improved year in year , my feeling is it was Gerrard that gave then the confidence that goes with it . Hopefully I'm wrong and Beale and his team can instill that confidence that's needed to be a winner . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but they games when the league was gone is absolutely what our players thrive on Since beale came he's had 6 big pressure games, drew one, won one (aftet extra time) and lost 4 That shows the absolute shit mentality these players have, graeme_4 and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm honestly not sure Klopp or Mourinho could fix the dogshit mentality of some of our players. We just have to hope as many of them as possible get punted this summer.

If you swapped the 2023 versions of Morelos and Kent out for their 2021 equivalents, I am very confident we would've won on Jan 2nd and Feb 26th. Quite possibly in the last game too.

I know what you mean, mate, and I do agree that Gerrard has a presence and credibility that it's very hard for most coaches to recreate. That also fades over time though (as we saw in his last season) whereas I'm hoping now Wilson's gone, Beale will be better at finding guys with the right mentality then moving them on before they go stale. gmcf 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquire8 42,970 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Got a tune out of Malik after dropping him into the midfield 3 but after signing Raskin and Cantwell he lost it. Apart from that, you can't get improvement out of the vast majority of those at the club. They're poor at their peak. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somemightsay7 2,427 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Cantwell is doing better than he was at Norwich, Tillman is doing better than he was under Gio. Sakala had 1 goal and 1 assist under Gio this season vs 7 goals and 7 assists under Beale. Barisic, although still not good, was fucking atrocious under Gio. Kent and Morelos were both better until the last 6-8 weeks. Gio won 33 out of 45 points (73%). Beale has won 46 out of 54 (85%). Over a full season Beale would finish with 97 points, which would have won the league in each of the last 5 seasons. That's with a shit squad, a 41 year old keeper and about 10 of them being out of contract in the summer. Honestly, some of the constant Beale bullshit some people spout is insane.
