OK, tight angle then.....😀

Probably meant to miss in that case 😀

Did it cost us a goal?

Good interview with Malmo coach post match. Names one Rangers player who his team simply couldn't handle. I'll not ruin the surprise https://www.football-addict.com/en/article/rangers-fc/we-were-torn-apart-malmo-boss-names-one-rangers-star-his-side-simply-could-not-deal-with/66f669caaa9645205b0fa048?utm_campaign=post-auto-article&utm_medium=facebook&utm_source=rangers-addict&date=27_09_2024&fbclid=IwY2xjawFj16JleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHdldi5BMnFKTtTDYXRfhOph6WH_wquGxQsz8sAb1GecU07UCC3qW0qDNCA_aem_Xhts-2Hp4mV1f4cn4XXxrQ

Can't see us dropping our top scorer (by some distance) for a player yet to score at this level in a must win league game. Your "probable" team won't be far off, and neither should it be. At this moment in time, that's our strongest 11 and we need to start playing the same 11 players to get cohesion. If Cortes ever gets fit, he'd be left-side attacker and Bajrami would move to the number 10 role.

The open goal you mention, was that at the opening goal? If so, bit unfair as it was a very tight angle. I listened to Ally McCoist last night who we'll all agree has forgotten more about playing number 9 for Rangers than we'll all ever know, he was full of praise for Dessers. Talking the game through with a couple of pals last night (1 who doesn't support Rangers) and we came to the conclusion that Tav and Dessers must be the two over-analysed and over -scrutinised players in the history of the club.

Agreed, there were 3 or 4 chances that fell to other players who should have scored. Thought Dessers deserves praise for his work-rate and hold up / link up play last night even at the times he was completely isolated.

Went for Souttar but there were many others who are worthy of a mention.

Maybe partly, but the performance levels in EL are well above what we deliver in SPL in my opinion. The referee was terrible last night, we should have had at least two pens.

Impressive

The game I watched for periods we were sloppy on the ball, gave possession away far too easily and conceded needless fouls. At the start of the 2nd half we couldn't get out our own half (as we couldn't keep hold of the ball). For large periods of 1st half we were sloppy, yet still created 2 great chances in the later stages of that half - that showed lack of composure and bravery. I said at halftime there were positives, mainly Tav and Dessers performances. Also said at full time that there were positives - praised the back 4 and said midfiled competed and Dessers held ball up and brought others into the game. it is possible to see the positives and the negatives - we've still a long, long way to go.

Best song we've had for a while, glad it's taken off - sounds amazing (and annoys the Nats).

Thinking after that game tonight, why have we been better suited to Europa League football in the last 4-5 years than we are to domestic (55 season apart)? We've taken on and beaten some really good teams, continually gotten to business end of the EL as well as the final.

Great result but clean sheets are always welcome in Europe. Still felt for periods of the game we lacked composure on the ball and gave it away easily. Full back four deserve credit and played well as a unit, midfield battled well and Dessers played very well, held ball up.amd brought players in to the game. More composure, bravery and belief on the ball and more composure and clinical in front of goal and we'll be much better.

Stick to defending big man 😀

Bajrami been super as well after been written off at the weekend.....

Good finish by McCausland - been a strange game but 2-0 up away from home in Europe is good going.

Bit better in last 5mins

Very poor start to 2nd half - no composure on ball and giving away silly free-kicks.

I wouldn't say we've been brilliant, the opening 5mins and final 5mins we created decent chances with some quality play. Between those periods we've defended well but we're slack in our passing and we're unable to get out our own half. More of the same needed in 2nd half with more calmness and bravery in the ball.

Agree to disagree, Tav has been immense tonight (and I've criticised him all this season).

Well they get the most unwarranted criticism but Dessers and Tav have been outstanding in that 1st half.

That's was the piece of quality we were waiting for, unfortunately Cerny couldn't supply the finish the move deserved.

Very little quality on show from either side thus far which suits us to be honest.

Oooft......
