Tav, Goldson, Barisic and Lundstram

[The Specky Forum Organiser 64,816]

Two of them are out of contract so that’s half the battle already won.

No ones taking Goldson nobody wanted him when he was free. 

[VanVeenRangers 2,537]

Keep Tav but change Captain. The rest can go.

[B1872 20,721]

If Yilmaz can’t get in ahead of Barisic then he’s better chucking it.

[RDB14 2,760]

Agree on Barisic, on the fence with Lundstram, strongly disagree on Tav.  No point talking about Goldson, he’s on big money.

[KeyserSoze 14,551]

Watching Barasic shoot with his right foot was a big riddy

Probably why the sit down with the manager. He probably feels the same

Watching him shoot with his left was also a riddy.

He can't even run anymore. Looks so laboured. First touch and passing is honking. 

[The Godfather 71,927]

Losers.

Don't deserve to be here

Lundstram was alright the last couple of games but

[bluenoz 30,867]

I agree. Time for change.

[steven33jackie 1,925]

Spot on with the usual suspect list. I felt Lundstram was coming onto a game in recent weeks but today he like some others reverted to type. My issue is the way we started the game all of those mentioned are integral to how quickly the ball goes forward and once again they all wanted an extra touch and time on the ball before passing forward. They improved after we conceded but it's to late by then.

[G.E.C. 18,793]

Only took five years but finally lost patience with Barisic today. Infuriating isn’t the word.

[Drumloyal 14,997]

No matter how fresh the produce, it will eventually start to rot.

That is our defence imo.

[shaka 1,677]

These are the guys that have led to the previous managers all getting sacked and if Clement doesn't want to end up in the same position he will look to replace them as soon as possible.  They've all contributed over the years some more than others but it's clear their time is up and we can't progress as a team without moving them on.

Not sure about this. We can’t just get rid of everyone. Tav and Goldson still good enough. Lundstrum maybe with somebody decent alongside him. 

The 4 worst players today were probably Balogun, Cifu, Cantwell and Sima. Along with Barasic

Based on what?

At this point it is sentiment imo.

Thought JL played with a lot of drive and effort today. Barisic was his usual

Yilmaz will be gone in January because he’s not better than Barisic.

He’s stinking.

Accepting those performances from him today is half our problem. He isn’t good enough to be a Rangers midfielder.

He doesn’t deserve a new deal.

We can't continue with the same players that bottle it every season and just keep replacing the manager.  Other than the 55 season we haven't looked capable of winning the big games in the league and the common theme has been these players.  Sure they have contributed to some good memories but time moves on and we now need better in their positions.

Tav is visibly slowing down and needing to take longer to do everything.   Goldson is nowhere near as dominant as he was in his peak and with Balogun beside him they just looked jaded.  Barisic at his peak could get up the pitch and put in great crosses, now he struggles to get to the ball and most of his crosses hit the first man because he doesn't have the physical attributes or skills to create space for the cross.  Lundstram is good at making it look like he's contributing but having the odd burst into good space or strong tackle but generally he just spends most of the game hiding or slowly moving around the pitch and being our of position. 

Cantwell and Sima to me just looked like they were trying to do too much today, which is a common issue with Cantwell.  He wants to be all over the pitch and ends up not being in the right attacking areas.
