Pre-Season Megathread | Rangers 2 (Sakala 54; Itten 77) - 1 Real Madrid [FT]

[CammyF 6,775]

Just back from the game and for a 0-0 pre-season friendly,I really enjoyed it. 

 

Positives ; 

Being back at Ibrox.

Patterson and Kelly.

The return of Nico.

More minutes in the tank.

Some of our play was nearing our best.

Away top looks good.

 

Negatives;

The score.

Lack of killer instinct.

 

Roll on tomorrow against some team called Real Madrid ?‍♂️?

Like Cammy I saw a few decent performances namely,Paterson,Bassey,Kelly in first half then in second return of Katic who apart from a couple of stray passes looked like ha had never been away injured.

Was great to be there and savour the live atmosphere.

Based on both last week and this week's team selections, Defoe looks to be starting in front of Itten. I hope that's not the case as Itten offers far more against better teams.

I would not persist with Jones. 

 

He's not good enough. 

 

If there must be a body there, give the place to a youngster or shoehorn someone in. 

 

He does nothing.

 

At this stage he's just after the pay slip.

[Rousseau 9,351]

Another win for the B-team.

Oh, FFS. That's insulting. 

 

I'd put out the B-team. 

 

(They'd probably beat the Spaniards...)

Saying that, a lot of their bigger names were involved in the Euros, so they will have been given a longer rest period, won't they?

When does Morelos return??
