Match Thread [FT] Rangers 4 (Sima 17', 65'; Raskin 45'; Dessers 79') - 0 Hibernian

[Yorkie Bear 507]

I'm hoping for a change in our style of play and possible change of formation. In such a small space of time, it may be subtle changes which may pass me by, but I'm sure the tactical analysts on Gersnet will put me straight.

[RANGERRAB 3,258]

The first couple of changes/improvements I’d like to see from Philippe Clement are:-

 

1) stop needlessly giving away possession under no pressure particularly in forward areas 

2) a vast improvement in set pieces i.e. better corner kicks & free kicks which actually clear the first defender or dont go miles over the bar or wide of the goal

Call me naïve but I'm very much looking forward to getting back to Ibrox tomorrow.

 

The new manager is right to say not to expect too much too soon but surely his arrival and the return of a few other important players will see a rise in standards? 

 

My (hopeful) starting XI here where the bulk of the team will have a had a fortnight training together and several days with the new manager as well.

 

[Bill 13,717]

What I don't want tomorrow is to see the same old 4-3-3 and endless pointless crosses from fullbacks. I'd like to see something like this but it's probably way too soon.

 

Sima - Roofe

 

Yilmaz - Raskin - Lundstram - Cantwell - Tavernier

 

Davies - Goldson - Souttar

I was glad of the break 2 weeks ago and am glad we are back tomorrow.  Some improvement please lads.

Am I right in saying we’ve got our old chum Don Robertson refereeing tomorrow?

Anyone else just waiting on the training video with the new manager to drop?

 

I'll be thinking we'll scud Hibs by 6 after watching it no doubt.
