Ross County 0 Rangers 1 Aribo

I’m not thrilled about selecting MOTM after such a result - but I think Kamara and Aribo showed intent. Kamara caught my eye more so giving it to him.

Great, let’s speculate about who’s moving on

Don’t even think we tested the keeper that much actually. 31 shots and no goals = terrible performance. We lost to Hamilton, but we played well. The future is bright right enough.

I didn’t pick you up on the dominance (possession stat) but to say it wasn’t a bad performance - speechless

There’s very little confidence in the side now and players are afraid to make errors which is making it worse.

Luckily the split will be coming up soon

I would agree except for Morelos

I was obviously watching another game in a parallel universe

Indeed, SG was right on the first choice CB pairing of Goldson and Helander. I like Katic, but he has a lot to learn.....as does young George.

Rangers 3 Hamilton 0 MORELOS

Alfie has served his punishment. However, if the team had managed to win without him on Saturday - I would be putting him on the bench tomorrow night. They didn’t, so I’d start Morelos and give him 60 mins and if he’s not effective I’d bring on Defoe. Both are better than Kamberi. I wouldn’t start Defoe because I think he needs eased in gently. This is a must win game and we need our best team on the park. I know it’s all doom and gloom given the results post break, but if Celtic lose just one game we are right back in the race. I‘m not giving up, stranger things have happened. Here’s to Alfredo finding his form and leading us to glory.

Hearts 1 Rangers 2 Hagi

Me too, I hate to jinx things

? so glad they proved me wrong

Braga 3 Rangers 1 Kamberi go on prove me wrong Rangers and get through to the last 16 Please!!!

I’ve come to the same conclusion. This season started right - defending from the front - fast, physical, clinical. We seem to have given up on that or at least the players are not effective at it any more.

That’s not the answer, and yes, it would undermine Stevie, Gary Mac, and the rest of the management team. It’s a player ‘expectation’ problem in my view. The thing is they need to do 3 things all of the time: 1. Press high - and give them no time on the ball 2. Win our physically battles - and win every 50/50 ball - don’t get bullied 3. Move the ball forward quicker with one touch moves. I believe when we are doing that we succeed or even when we are playing a team that try doing that to us we struggle. However, it’s not easy to be technically good, physical and slick for 90 mins, but they are capable and get paid well to do it. I don’t blame SG or his team, the tactics are not the problem, I just don’t know if the players can empty the tank every week - be prepared to die in the shirt every week. Take your pick - any player - we’ve put every single one on a pedastal at some point or another only to be disappointed when they cannot live up to our heightened expectations. But, you may argue that we should be able to beat bottom of the league teams without getting into 2nd gear, but it’s simply not true. They will have their days and can pick us off when we’re not at it, it’s the same in any league. These players are still young and learning - and as we cannot buy the finished articles it should be no surprise that we’re where we are. With celtic on such form - we literally need players that can perform at an optimal level almost every week - and that collectively, no more than 2 or 3 are of their game. We’re praising young Hagi right now and chastising young Kent - but it could easily be the opposite in 2 weeks time. I don’t know what the answer is - apart from buying a new spine for the team - proven, experienced players. To do that we would have to sell our highest value assets when presented with the opportunity..... and be patient.

Yes, absolutely, at least no more debates. Although Helander is slow and if caught out of position we get in trouble, but he is better and more composed than Katic 90% of the time.

Odd thing for Joe to say - may be true - but quite pessimistic nonetheless

I agree, I don’t think we’ll miss him on his current form. In fact he should be dropped for Sunday to give Kamberi some match fitness.

Nearly took maximum points....you’ll be glad you didn’t though ?

Rangers 1 Braga 1 Morelos

Great. Let them go 13 points clear, you know, just in case.

Were his remarks, that you didn’t like, about Rangers supporters in general or the minority that bring shame to the club?
