Barisic won’t cross the half way at their midden either. Think we’d need Ridvan to be fit and starting to properly consider it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love it. Great idea. Can see Ben Davies, Silva and Cantwell really intimidating them doing the haka. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sterling would be there to cover like Jack used to. For me, going back to that shape and structure is what we need. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the thought of McCausland/Wright/Silva is absolutely grim. Absolutely no arguments there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

6superbarry6 14,244 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Barry Ferguson article in the record is bang on and the attitude is exactly what we are missing in this squad, what a difference it would make having a player like that in the middle of the park a proper leader.

You can level a lot of criticism at him, and I do it often, but you can’t argue that he was a leader, a winner, and someone with a big set of balls. Something we really lack in our squad. 6superbarry6 and Amokachi 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately for about the first time since murty was in the dugout i dont have a similar feeling. Usually no matter what i can convince myself we have a punchers chance. The squad depleted with injuries and the recent arse collapses from the team have knocked any positivity right out me. The only good thing is my gut feelings are often wrong. So there is that.

Negative influence by demanding more from sub par players that were never Rangers players in a million years? pretty similar to the soft as shite squad we have now.
