DMAA

He was a very strange signing because it was obvious he wasn't Warburton's type of player. He is the total opposite of Barrie McKay, who was exactly Warburton's type of player. But I think a good manager can bring the best out of technical players and more raw players in the same team, and at different stages of the game.

Agreed

Yes that's what I mean. Clever tactics that focus on a player's strength can make him look like a completely different player. Who had a good word to say about Windass under Caixinha or Warburton? I think headless chicken is harsh given he's demonstrated very good dribbling and finishing in a number of his goals. He's been player of the month once more than any of the rest of our players too. I'm just hoping Murty can turn him around like he did Windass.

Great article, you make football sound like a game of Chess (I like Chess). I didn't see the Florida games but it sounds like Murty has finally brought advanced attacking tactics to Rangers, and he's bought the players to implement it. Our attacking play has been rudimentary for too long and that's why we're poor at breaking down opponents when we are on the front foot. If we implement these tactics in the league we could see O'Halloran especially transformed. He has pace to burn but poor tactics makes him look bang average. This set-up could also provide the platform for Atayaki to make a breakthrough, I'd love to see him brought on when the game is won and we're still on the front foot. The only position I think really needs strengthened in order for this formation to work better is centre mid, with Docherty brought in. Docherty could be our long term main man in the middle of the park, I think it would be a huge mistake to let him slip out of our hands because the only league winning standard centre midfielders we have are Jack and Dorrans.
