  1. Not really getting why we are essentially playing 3 wide men?
  2. Just noticed the Tims drew. Don't know if I'm meant to be happy or sad?
  3. What fecking does my tits in is our inability to get to the by line or behind opposition defences. Considering we play wide men and have overlapping full backs, we never see them hitting the by line and getting balls across the goal area. It's the hardest ball to defend and it's no great surprise that about 90% of Man City's goals come from these situations. They rarely shoot or play low percentage passes. They engineer a way for a player to hit the line and play a pass back/across for someone to tap in.
  4. Agreed. He's a great player but IMO he's miles from being the finished article
  5. I genuinely feel that much of our inconsistency of performance stems from our lack of consistent team selections. I know we've had injuries and suspensions but it seems we are making 3/4 changes every game. I don't think we've established a strong enough playing identity yet to cope with these constant changes
  6. My patience with Morelos is diminishing by every yellow/red card.
  7. Tbh we showed very little real quality against Hearts as well. We showed great fighting spirit but I'm still struggling to see what we actually do as a team that is creative or part of a plan
  8. Two steps forward, one step back yet again. Our lack of real quality has been highly evident tonight. I just can't see us getting anywhere near the league with Jack in the middle and Morelos/Lafferty up top.
  9. Agreed. I actually still can't a clear style of play after all these games
  10. Still cant believe people are calling him the best player in Scotland tbh. He nowhere near that
  11. Truly awful first half. Nobody getting behind or going beyond their defence
  12. Whether it was a red card or not... where does that leave us leading into the Celtic game. Does Arfield automatically miss games? And Candieas for that matter...
  13. What a truly strange game. We looked lacklustre for 30 mins and then controlled it after we scored our first. With a wee bit more quality, we could have (and should have) had more. Today was the best and worst of Morelos all in one game IMO. Scores the winner, runs his heart out but could have had 3/4 but made some poor decisions on the ball. 3 pts was a must, so job done. Well done Rangers
  14. Exciting game but seriously lacking in quality from both teams tbh
  15. We need another goal. We've been here too many times before this season
  16. Still not sure about Lafferty TBH. Looking ahead...is Candieas still out for the Hearts game? Could we play Flanagan at RB and move Tav forward?
  17. Not the win we all wanted but just to add a touch of perspective...if this was a two leg knock out tie, we would have knocked out a La Liga team with 10 men. Compare that to this time last year
  18. Jack is a wasted jersey tonight. Looks out of his depth tbh.
  19. Scottish top flight football needs less teams not more. I find this baffling tbh
  20. Good to see Ibrox up there in the top 10 but it's hard to take the list that seriously as it has the London Stadium and Monaco's in the top 30 and has Wembley and the Nou Camp in the top 5. The Nou Camp for all its size has zero atmosphere as all the noise just leaves the stadium as quickly as it is generated due to the lack of a roof structure. Wembley is a soulless corporate bowl. Horrible. Without sounding utterly biased, I always laugh when I see Parkhead in any of these lists. Ok, it might generate a decent atmosphere inside but the carcass and infrastructure inside of the stadium inside looks like it's been put together by Primary School children. A few years back I had the "pleasure" of attending the Scotland V Ireland game at CP (it was a freebie) and I couldn't believe how shitty the whole place was. First of all we had the fun and games of thousands of people tripping over rubble to get to one entrance turnstyle. After that we were greeted by an internal structure that was patched up with various and irregular corrugated sheets that were painted in about 5 different shades of green, which looked less than safe. 5 star stadium my ass
