Match Thread [FT] Rangers 3 (Colak 50; Tillman 71; Sands 86) - 2 Partick Thistle

[Rousseau 9,407]

I might turn it off...

Very very poor 1st half, never a penalty, however we are all over the place

[Malangsob 1,208]

Well Mike...it was a nice thought...but you need to get them subs warmin up.

 

-Colak, Haji--just coming off long inactivity

 

Cantwell, Raskin--just got off the bus.

 

Sands--has played CB but only in a pinch.

 

Too much experimentation.

Harsh penalty but we've no urgency in our play, Thistle are not just going to roll over ,we need more urgency.

[Frankie 8,170]

OK, that was never, ever a penalty kick but our attitude and performance is deplorable. Slow, too many touches, lazy, powderpuff and literally nothing to offer for most of that half. Not one outfield player can say they won their personal battle. Big changes needed for 2nd half.

 

I think any of the front four could come off but we need to see Morelos, Roofe and Kent immediately to give us some sort of threat in attack.

[der Berliner 3,263]

No cohesion to the midfield whatsoever, hence they were all over the place and confused themselves more than Thistle. Kamara virtually an empty jersey, as he has no real role but to ping-pong the ball to the next player available. Good for the pass-stats, but totally unnecessary. Colak isolated.

 

We brought that penalty up on ourselves again with very poor defending. Playing out from the back should be fined, they had three shots before the referee bend the rules. 

 

The ref is just utterly clueless and poor. Decisions are almost just one-way, underdog-way. Truly shocking ...

 

... first half.

[Uilleam 5,451]

Subs needed, as a matter of urgency. 

Morelos and Kent, as a start??

[compo 6,169]

Should have watched Colombo 

[der Berliner 3,263]

Cantwell on the right wing, and dare I say it Kent on the left. Maybe Morelos too, Hagi and Kamara off.

[CammyF 6,807]

Abysmal  - Thistle should be out of sight. No positives to take from 1st half. Huge improvement required.

 

We are missing Kents industry and creativity and Alfies movement
