Popular Post KeyserSoze 15,181 Posted August 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2023 Beale thought only 3 were good enough to start tonight. Our biggest game of the season so far and the millions spent on nine players - his starting 11 consisted of two outfield players new to the club. just two rebuild? Is it fuck, it’s an old trick of bringing in loads and hopefully one or two will be good enough. cast your net and hope there’s a blue fin Tuna in amongst the haddocks Everyone said the players coming in had to be starting 11 quality. He unconsciously admitted he’s fucked it by playing that starting 11. SK Rfc, GA1972, BouncyBluenose87 and 12 others 15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitre_mouldmaster 21,511 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I can understand you dropping a penalty box kinda striker like Danilo for a game like this. Danilo I think was brought in to bang them in against the dross in our league. The worrying thing is that he looks miles off of scoring against the dross in our league on showing so far.

hammer93 15,455 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 You have to add in Cantwell & Raskin to the mix so effectively that is 5 out 11.....it does seem strange mind you that we chased Danilo for weeks and paid 6million euros for him to continue on the bench delparlane, J-Maestro and HG5 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit like McGregor coming back under Gerrard - the club had already been keeping an eye on him / talking to his agent. Any manager would have said ‘yes’ to Butland coming to Rangers.

the brown brogue 1,961 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Out of the outfield players signed in the summer, how many of them would have had us genuinely worried had they been signed by the tarriers rather than us?

He unconsciously admitted he’s fucked it by playing that starting 11. Yeh 100% agreed. We have 2/3 of our spending in fees and wages sitting on the bench. But actual starters that clearly need upgrading still being reeled out. Really thought we lacked a good ball playing midfielder tonight. Like Kamara in last year’s performance to just control the ball under relentless pressure. Other than the financial benefits though I’d be happy enough if we were dug shite in Europe but win the league. So fingers crossed his recruitment comes good there Jamie0202 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cantwell is a really exciting, skillful player who gives his all doe the cause. A standout for me. I thought Butland was a good signing. He hasn't let me down. Would perform better if our defence wasn't so erratic. He needs help there. Raskin has some good games. They are the only ones who I would rely on thus far. I know it's early days for the rest , but that is not a good return by any means. I had high hopes for Danilo. I'd start him most games. Think Beale may use him as a supersub though. The rest have yet to impress me. HG5 and VERITAS VOS LIBREBETS 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh the tarriers would probably utilise them a lot better, we sign a winger and wonder why he's shite when playing as an inside ten, or a box to box mid and stick him right mid How often do the tarriers sign a player and play him out of position, you never seen jota stuck in centre mid or oreilly etc stuck on the wing did you Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im just hoping Rogers has hit that point of managerial staleness when it all just goes to shit for him. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIRB_72 4,148 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 For me our transfer business has been done in mind for domestic football. Guys who can play in the final third and win games. They'll come in and out as the season goes on. Now how that translates to Europe and to tonight, I just don't know. However, having the likes of Cifuentes, Raskin and Matondo pinned back in your own third is just asking for trouble. In the Europa League it may look naive at times but we must get the pros and take out the cons of our new signings in these types games. If he wants to be tight and rigid in Europe then fine play 3 CBs, Jack and Lundstram but don't have players doing jobs they aren't equipped (or bought) to do.

It was always daft to appoint a youth coach with no experience as a manager to oversee a rebuild you have to wonder what the board were thinking. I do think a proper manager could get more out of these players. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 12,182 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 It's looking like we will already need an entirely new front line again. Want to see more of Danilo getting a run of starting games but other the rest just don't look up to it, and for 2 of them that's being kind Pray that we bring in a winger who is good enough before the deadline BlueAvenger and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayro 3,465 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Of the 9 new players Dowell is injured, Balogun and Sterling are backup to the starting defence so not that worried. Cifuentes started his here well but looked a good bit short of the required level last night. The biggest worry is the turnover up front, which the majority were supportive of given last season collective performance. Unfortunately there hasn’t been consistency by any of the new strikers to suggest we are better off, there hasn’t been enough games to form a strong opinion other than MB appears not to know who’s the best fit for each game which is a concern given what has been spent.
