  1. I always liked McKay. I was against selling him - or letting him go. I remember arguing at the time that he created a lot of chances for us, but our forwards always contrived to squander the opportunity. If he had a better forward beside him, he would rack up the assists. Saying that, I'm not in favour of bringing him back. He's had his time.
  2. Ajax drew 3-3 with FC Emmen. But we can't compete.
  3. Not enough. None. Yes, me. Yes.
  4. I don't like the 4-2-3-1. Well - It's alright. It depends how you use it. Nagelsmann uses it very offensively; someone like Benitez has everyone behind the ball and bores you to death. We didn't line up in a 4-2-3-1 under SG, it was a 4-3-2-1, with two #10s and no wingers. Formations are largely irrelevant in the modern game. I agree with your second point. If you have two players to play midfield, one for the holding role, one to play a little more offensive, I don't understand why GvB would pick Lundstram for the holding role and Kamara for the attacking role? I would have thought that, to be honest. Our xG barely limps past 1 per game. We just don't create chances, never mind take them. St Mirren had a higher xG than us, and that's with a penalty!
  5. I don't think that's an issue when you're talking about one of the most influential coaches in world football. (However, I do get the sense that he can speak adequately and that the translator is just for press conferences etc., like Pochettino.)
  6. Oh. The 'whoooosh' is for me, then...
  7. I'm strangely buoyant. I feel like the end is nigh for GvB.
  8. Whoooooosh. I was being sarcastic.
  9. Ross--Get Marcelo on the phone. Pronto. Or Ralph Hassenhuttl. (I wanted Daniel Farke after SG left, but he's at 'Gladbach now and doing very well (they beat Dortmund 4-2 last night).)
  10. It's amazing how St Mirren can compete against a side with vastly greater finances...
  11. Our xG was 1.03. St Mirren's xG was 1.08. And that's with a penalty! F***********ck.
  12. As depressing as it is to admit, I agree...
  13. I'm surprised we have a Correct Score, but not really. Correct Result (1 pt): Mal and Lenny. Correct Number of Rangers Goals (1pt): Rousseau, Dado, Mal and Devil. FGS (2 pts): Franc, buster and FS. Correct Score (3 pts): Mal. Latest Standings:
  14. What was the referee thinking? Even if he doesn't think it's a penalty, there's no way it was a dive.
  15. I think that's a penalty.
  16. That's a foul. It's maybe outside the box, though. Does it count if it's on the line?
  17. The results are finally catching up with the performances. I've been so deflated by our style - if you can call it that - since last season.
  18. In their current form, yes. I still think they're better than what they are showing, though. We spent £1m and 50k on Morelos and Kamara, so I'd expect to recoup that easily enough.
  19. 1 (one) shot on target. Currently at an xG of 0.59. Brutal.
  20. I like Sands, but he's not worth £6m.
  21. I was just thinking that after the last press conference, where GvB says his players need a break.
  22. A failed cross or a failed shot achieve nothing either, but if you don't buy a ticket you don't win the raffle.
  23. I know the fans are groaning at Kamara's back-heel return to Tillman after it fails, but I think that's class. If Kamara is more match fit and Tillman is more in-tune with him, that works and a dangerous situation arises.
