match thread (image) [FT] Rangers 4 - 0 Marseille (Candeias 17, 43; Goldson 63; Defoe 75)

[Rousseau 9,369]

Calm down. 

 

Accrington beat Marseille 2-1 a couple of days ago.

Some superb finishing and good pressing play. OM clearly fell away after 65 mins or the like, but we pressed them hard and played some lovely stuff still.

 

I don't think that we will have to fear much from the Scottish teams trying to play an open game against us, as we might verywell put them to the sword at leisure. The trench-and-brick brigade may be another matter. But for that, Jones and Docherty and Jack and Kamara all look very good.

 

Every minute Jones plays, the memory of Kent dwindles a wee bit. His play with Barisic on the left was at times reminiscent of our right-side pairing.

Calm down. 

Gerrard will have you for using that phrase!

 

We're going to win 4-0 in every match and that's that.

[buster. 4,808]

Very encouraging so far.

 

• Lots of goals...5, 4, 4
• None conceded....0, 0, 0
• Good football & entertainment
• No less than six against St.Joesph's though...

 

The above will add thousands onto crowd for Thursday.

Much better when he has no time to think about it.

Can't ask much more from a friendly than that.

Candeias was excellent in the first half. The side looked excellent all round to be honest, although I would not be playing Morelos in front of JD. Having said that, the frogs were well off the pace and looked like a training exercise for them.

 

We have encouraging signs from everyone though. Highlight of the day for me was Candeias second goal in the first half. A moment of class.

Damn you Rousseau popping my wee happy bubble .

Jones pulled out of tackles 3 times in first half. I know it’s only a friendly, but. 

[MacK1950 2,231]

What I liked was the ease with which the subs came on without any obvious deviation in the play,it shows how well the training is working.
