SIRB_72 4,148 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Our dream manager based on our history and what is needed now is a Rangers man (a boyhood fan, not a Gio type), someone who has won stuff and that plays attractive attacking football. If we could get at least two of the three as manager that would be perfect. I don't know of any proper Rangers fans who are successful winning managers (well apart from Eck) these days. I think we'd certainly need a manager with the two latter qualities and someone beside him who was brought up knowing what Rangers is and means.

Fully agree but someone with trophies under thier belt and an attacking brand of football is needed. I think we also need a ruthless character. Someone hell bent on winning and not willing to accept 2nd best. That could install that same mentality into our team. We've not had that imo since Walter Smith.

I don’t know much about his record though. As in how hard it is to win what he’s won. looks like he finishes the J-league season early December.

tom1780 1,257 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Our issue is there are not many ex players who have won trophy’s or gone in to managing and won things who get it and get us so we will end up going with an untested and tried coach Only 1 springs to mind is rino after that I’m struggling to think I’m not suggesting he’s the man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tactics side of the game now requires so much more. Nobody back in the Souness or Wallace era sat in with ten behind the ball for instance. It was hardy bastards going at each other for 90 minutes with hardy bastards waiting for them in the changing room if they didn't. Our last 3 managers were Gerrard, Beale and Gio. With the exception of the later, there's very little managerial experience and I think it shows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIRB_72 4,148 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Ex-players or staff is fine but it only goes so far as Gio and now Beale have shown. You can come into Rangers and fall in love but it'll never be your number 1. Unlike Walter or Eck they were never that 10 year old boy thinking in your head and heart that Rangers were the best team in the world. The likes of Gio and Beale only understand professionally that losing to celtic hurts, it doesnt hurt them personally. They dont have their family or friends berating them for losing to Kilmarnock, getting tanked from PSV or losing to celtic. Now first of all we do need a manager with a clear tactical idea of how he wants us to play. With our squad of attacking players and a shite defence I would hope we would look to one with a pressing and attacking outlook. Over the last 30 years our most successful managers have been Walter x2, Advocaat and McLeish. The two previously mentioned are true Rangers men. Advocaat was a coach hired for his impressive track record but when he was here he had some true Rangers men close to him that he trusted, especially early on. Ian Ferguson and Gordon Durie who he kept on after Walter left and he and John Greig were very close. There is the story of Ferguson going nuts after the 5-1 loss at parkhead in 98. That is something a new manager, or even the current one, would benefit from. Even across the city when postecoglu came in he had kennedy and mcmanus along with 3/4 guys on the park who had been over the course. Postecoglu and Advocaat both had a style that could smash the rest but both did rely on players/staff that knew both clubs properly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
