Id have brought mccausland on (if fit enough) and moved sterling back next to lundstram who was struggling to cope defensively, let Diomande do the wandering up the park if need be, 

Not like our number ten could play off dessers anyway, nothing was coming off for him

Mind you Clement got us a draw in Portugal missing countless first team players, hard to argue with any of his decisions since coming in (other than fucking barisic away to killie) 

That’s the issue mate - if player X/Y/Z is fit enough.

 

I’m not criticising manager, quite the opposite.

I know mate, was meaning i cant criticise clement given how he's turned us around, apart from barisic at killie lol

Im guessing that mccausland isnt fit really and only there cause he could walk, if we had sima or cortes i think sterling might have started deeper in the middle,

2nd top versus 3rd bottom and looks like they were struggling with getting their 2nd at 45+.

[Bad Robot 21,152]

Scored at a good time also in 2nd half but looks like their defence can be get at albeit maybe they had a defender missing and rested others.

I would take us to beat anybody on a Thursday night at Ibrox.

If we don't, we don't, it's no disaster.

Have a wee feeling that we will just scrape by it into the last 8 by the odd goal.

A straightforward 3 nil at Dens Park will be nice to finish the week off.

Then hopefully get some bodies back after the international break.

Ill take a scrappy 1-0 but have a feelimg we will have to score 2 or 3. 

[Big Al 55 9,252]

Will be a struggle with the options at our disposal, a monumental result if we can go through.
