Accurate one touch passing and actual movement in the forward areas, this is very refreshing.

Sakala deserved that, he's been the centre of all forward play. I don't know what to make of the guy, throws away a goal a few minutes ago but scores that one.

That is a honking miss by Sakala, but I have to say he's looked really lively.

Our midfield is actually dynamic with these three.

I think that's the case with Tillman, not sure about Lundstrum though.

Very happy with that team, let's see what Colak can do in a Beale team. We need to see if he can lead the line next season.

It's not the same as what Gio said. Gio said we can't compete, Beale is saying we have to compete. It's not the same.

It's the truth though, they will outspend us.

Lundstrum has made an arse out of it suggesting it is one game where we didn't turn up. We've been living this for most of a decade.

That's pretty shocking

You know when a discussion breaks down into semantics it's not worth carrying on.

No I'm not implying that, I'm saying that assuming Celtic will perform worse as part of the future strategy is not wise. You have to assume they are going to keep going as they are and plan properly to account for that.

Is it not better to assume they keep making good decisions and plan accordingly, rather than just hoping for the best?

That's because we have 280 players worth 500 grand in our squad.

I'm more angry about this now and my thinking of the future team is changing. I actually think we need to renew McGregor's contract, we are in danger of losing everyone who knows what it means to play and fight for rangers. We can't have players with: - Fear (Barasic) - Apathy (Kamara) - Complacency (Morelos) We need players that understand every game, every cup is a must win. I think the only player in the squad that knows that is McGregor. For better or worse in the short term we need to clear out the squad almost completely. My fear is that the attitude of the players rubs off on to new signings and we end up in this horrible circle with an absolute lack of ambition. It's been too long now, we have a squad of serial losers and it's time most of them moved on.

This seasons stats look awful, and I don't think they've even included all the injuries in this https://www.transfermarkt.com/glasgow-rangers/ausfallzeiten/verein/124

Apparently our summer signings have been unavailable for 43% of all our games this year. It makes sense, but I feel like we've been living with this injury situation for 20 years or longer now and it's only got worse over time. There has to be something fundamentally wrong at the club, surely?

I agree that the debate here is not understandable. Either we signed players in the winter break to improve the 1st team or we bought filler for the squad. If Raskin was fit then why wouldn't we play him for our most important game of the season, particularly given the incredibly poor form of Kamara? This seems to have been Beale's first big misstep, relying on the same old players, we won't get anywhere like that because we all know the same old players have generally come off worse to Celtic. It's not something I'm going to castigate Beale for, he's going to need a couple more windows to change the team, but if we keep playing the same old regulars despite signing new players then there is absolutely no point.

Tillman is young and it showed today that he isn’t the finished article, he seemed so pumped up that he lost his composure. However, it doesn’t change my opinion of him, we need to sign him up.

I presume Kamara and Lundstrum were played out of necessity

We've scored, but I missed it, what happened? Is it because I said id wave goodbye to Morelos?

I know you shouldn't make decisions when emotional, but I'll be happy enough to wave off morelos at the end of the season. No way we should be considering giving him a new contract.

Wank man

My point was Raskin could probably do better alone than both Lundstrum and Kamara. It wasn't meant to be taken literally, just that our midfield has been really, really weak.

So unlucky therr
