MVRanger 2,864 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Anybody watching the Spanish commentary on YouTube? These 2 boys are bonkers - giving it the full "Ggggggooooooooooooaaaaalllllllll" every time the ball hits the net! They don't come up for air. No idea what they are saying but still better than Tom Miller. bornabear, maverick1200 and HG5 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 32,278 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Some nice football at times, but our fullbacks can't defend. It's not one of Ridvan's strong points either. The three goals were nice. Rangers_no1 and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redmond7 1,503 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 I mean was at least an interesting first 45 minutes, looking quite good at times in attack. Need to learn to defend just a wee bit better though. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malkytfp1 19,537 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Just now, ForeverAndEver said: A finished right back, two centre that are clearly not good enough, and a left back that doesn’t look like he can defend. Fantastic Finished right back who set up the third with a good ball and set up what should have been a tap in for Lawrence two minutes before that. Think it's just too easy to go to Tav but he's not been that bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuart1994 4,531 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Played some really nice stuff, some class moves. Been impressed with Diomande and Lawrence. Defence terrifies me right enough. IpswichGer and bluenoz 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VladimirWeiss69 928 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 The scouting as we already know has a lot to be desired aswell that we chased jefte for this long when the fans of his previous team said he can't defend, we watched him and still said he would do delparlane 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivybank 4,826 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Take 4 guys out the crowd and play them as the back 4 Jefte yes he is an awful defender as we were told ,great scouting Davies and soutar 🤡 Tav 🤨 hearts will score with their first attack Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IpswichGer 3,909 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Just now, johanhentze said: He will definitely be better when we are dominating. Looks very direct going forward and actually works well with Cortes, but... then there is the defensive bit... He looks good going forward, and to be fair, when he does put in a challenge he puts his body on the line unlike Borna who shat out of everything. Bit of a worry defensively though. We haven't had a 'good' LB since Papac! 🤮 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie0202 12,958 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 2 minutes ago, McEwan's Lager said: We are going to have 3 years of "Why don't we try Jefte as a left winger?" aren't we? He doesn't have the same attacking attributes as Tav so probably not. He looks fucking shite so far but as difficult as it is he needs a run of games first before we write him off.

Defensively he is what he is, jefte is worse and soapy just won't cut it. Malkytfp1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The Specky Forum Organiser 69,293 Posted July 27 Popular Post Share Posted July 27 I know he gets grief on here but Sterling and Ridvan at full back improve that team massively J-Maestro, plymouthranger, Ivybank and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanMK 5,211 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Jefte looks every bit like a winger playing as a fullback. Doesn't seem to understand where to be in the defensive third. He won't regularly play ahead of Ridvan though, assuming Ridvan stays fit. Jury's still out on Ridvan too, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
