But there’s still a massive amount of work to even get us ready for next season. There’s still a good 5-6 players getting on the pitch that are nowhere near it That second half inspired disgust and despair. But we can certainly improve, I won't be going anywhere near writing off the season, personally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget going way back there isn't a player that would get in the starting 11 of the team that won 55. We've downgraded year on year since Gerrard left that's the problem.

Bears r us 31,318 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 A difficult away game on Tuesday travelling to Poland and our first 'home' game today, with a decent first half but poor second, but getting 3 points at this time in the season will do me fine.

steven33jackie 2,017 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Has any player anywhere in the world ever got match fit / sharpness sitting on the bench. Just wondering what the point is of having Danilo on the bench. Would be better getting minutes with the B team. DrLaudrup 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we can certainly improve, I won't be going anywhere near writing off the season, personally. There’s no improving Wright, Matondo, McCausland, Dowell, Balogun, Souttar, Lawrence. They’re just not at the level. It is what it is. We won’t challenge for the title. But the season isn’t a write off. CL money, 2 cups and the development of the squad all massively important.

DrLaudrup 5,059 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Obviously a good result but I’m raging at that second half. Time after time we fail to kill teams and make it difficult for ourselves. We could easily have drawn or lost that match today. Clearly the side the finished the match won’t be our first choice 11. The first half was excellent but we had experience players second half against Motherwell youth due to their injuries and we played with zero composure. Experience players looked nervous and the usual suspects continue to let us down showing they are nowhere near good enough. McAusland etc continue to offer absolutely nothing. Tav is fine with good players infront of him as in first half but as soon as they are off he’s totally exposed. To have experienced Rangers players resorting to hopeful punts up the park at “home” against a shocking Motherwell side is unacceptable. We need to have far more compusure and better game management. I’d be furious in there in spite of the result. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mafeking St. 415 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 If we are looking to rebuild get rid of Ridvan, he sold the jerseys on Tuesday and his passing ended every attack he was involved in today.
