JFK-1

Who knows. Still an hour to go and Stevie said in his interview today when asked by the press if there were any more to come that he was always looking to add more.

This window we have been spoiled to the extent that I’m at least a shade disappointed to see no last minute big signings. Though there is still a little over two hours left.

Dubious. Think Liverpool shelled out something similar to that upper estimate for Salah.

Morelos needless indiscipline is annoying but it’s too late in the day to be selling him with no ready replacement.

As it stands they have nothing to offer in a footballing sense that we can’t offer. And we have the lure of Gerrard and an obvious excitingrevolution taking place.

Excited about this one. Think he can provide The means to open up packed defence strategies.

Glad to hear SG say he can't wait for Sunday to come. Not a hint of apprehension.

Just about my thinking on it. Which gives us a chance of racking up some tidy bonuses for wins and a chance of a second place finish to reach the first knockout round.

I pretty much think so too. The money from it was essential and has now been captured. Our greatest priority moving on has to be winning the league then a crack at the tens of millions on offer in the CL.

At this stage I don't want him transferred but I do want him dragged over the coals. He jeopardised a £10 million Euro jackpot for absolutely nothing and it was the same against the sheep where he likely cost us 2 points. He's not being carded for being combative in open play. He's throwing pointless toddler like tantrums and that's unacceptable with so much at stake.

Only to be expected I suppose. They were in pot 2 we in pot 4. Could have been a lot harder.

Second gets a place in the knockout round. It's doable.

He needs a hard kick in the balls from Jorge Albertz no less as does any Rangers player who would so pointlessly jeopardise a £10 million jackpot for the club after all we have been through. Dave King must have been pulling his hair out watching this highly paid man child risk that for absolutely nothing.

Something has to be done about him because this just can't go on. I'm confident he cost us 2 points at the sheep in the opening league game and tonight he could have cost us £10 million along with a raised profile and increased attraction for better quality players. And all for absolutely no gain. He's not making a bad tackle trying to gain us an advantage in the game he's just being an infantile petulant brat in possibly the most important game in our recent history. This can't go on until he costs us big time because that's coming if it does go on.

I'm oozing confidence. We will field a stronger 11 than we had today. We're undefeated, they're not and we're undefeated against stronger opposition than has already beaten them.

Group stage qualification may even seal a last minute Solanke loan.

I wouldn’t mind getting an English team from pot 1. Easier traveling for the team.

I never saw it but presumably they decided to abandon the iron curtain strategy that was getting them nowhere. Our brick wall beat their iron curtain.

Expressing reservations at the time was fair enough. It’s likely we all had some but this crap about looking terrified is absurd. He never came across as anything but super confident.

Great interview. He deserves almost all of the credit. He threw together a team in just weeks that has now pulled off a remarkable and rare achievement. He's already becoming a Rangers legend.

The Gerrard express steams on despite severe obstacles. We made it. This is incredible.

I'm so nervous about this I'm almost glad in a way I will be working and unable to watch. Might even try to resist checking in for updates. But probably not.

Just been reading a quote from Gerrard saying that they will be staying on UK time which I think in the circumstances is the smart thing to do. Ufa is 4 hours ahead of the UK so if they were going to bed at say 10pm UK time they will be up till 2am local time. That will be 13 hours before kick off.
