RangersMedia 35,962 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Absolutely miles off it fitness-wise, and a real concern against PSV's team who have pacey players in all areas of the park Should we go 3 at the back v PSV next week to give him a bit of protection? He's going to start, irrespective of fitness. esquire8 and jintybear 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
esquire8 45,230 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Only game where it would be a yes from me. Get Sterling in beside him and Souttar. We need all the cover we can get against them. roboscot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 12,205 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 3 at the back is the way to go More protection and gives us more width in attack with Borna and Tav being able to get forward a bit more and closer to providing for the strikers.

glasgow argyle 1,093 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 I'm definitely in favour of 3 at the back v PSV. Their wingers are lightning quick. Jack to sit deep in front of back 3 and cover for our full backs on forward runs. It might look negative to many but we must get the tactics correct to face a team with real pace. A bit of a throw back to the late Sir Walter's days but it did work for him on many occasions. Our fans must show patience in these ties.

Goldson as sweeper counters that hopefully, The organising goldson does would make him ideal sweeper, plus the further away from the backline tav is the better, We play 4 at the back next week they'll target him abd borna and destroy our backline glasgow argyle 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemdog 39,389 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 You'd normally say 3 at the back is weakness when the opposing side has good wingers, but in this instance I think it's a must. I'd rather have Souttar or Balogun standing them up, than Tav or Borna. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Jela 21,657 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Back 3 of Souttar, Goldson and Balogun. The current back 4 just leaks chances for fun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 32,454 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 I thought Goldson hugely improved in the second half tonight. The issues are, who is going to stop De Jong & Bakajoko? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onlythestrongsurvive 1,007 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 I'd like to see Cifu, Raskin and Dowell in the midfield. They can all defend / track back, push forward and have a bit of grit in them, plus not shy in shooting. Jack is too slow.
