firstly we are a work in progress. seems at last warbs is willing to alter formation but i think we would be better with two midfielders who can tackle and sit in and let windass or holt be the central attacking midfielder as they can't realy do the dirty work and this would alow them to concentrate on creating. we also get caught out of position every time tav goes to the left wing to hit free kicks. can no one else hit them? ps that's the least of tavs flaws, don't want to rant though.

1 thing I want to say even though I'm pretty depressed about the result I think brendan rodgers oozes class. He made an effort to shake every rangers players hand after match and had words of encouragement for them. So fair play to him a few of his predecessors would have been to busy gloating. And he's also a very good manager.

We might be work in progress but we are a long way from being anything like the finished article! If we are willing to accept Holt as our attacking midfield player then we are willing to accept second best since he is not premier league class and is not likely to develop to be of that quality. He is a good squad player at best. We have not replaced Miller at striker and don't look anywhere close to doing this. Garner is a different style of player, today if he hadn't been injured he looked capable of causing their defence problems but he is not a goal scorer. Waghorn isn't good enough and for whatever reason MOH isn't getting a game. Dodoo looks to have potential but he is not in the same league as Dembele and Forrester just does not convince.
McKay looked very good today and appears to be growing with confidence but how long will he stay if we are struggling and there is no sign of investment in quality players.
We need quality in midfield, Halliday is a waste of a jersey; we cannot work on the assumption that Crooks and / or Rossiter will come back fully fit and stay that way and even if they do we have yet to see whether they are good enough to take us forward.

Defensively Hill is our best player, both Wilson and Kiernan continually face criticism but whether they would be any better with a decent midfield is open to debate and for me, neither of our full backs are that good in this league and we totally lack leadership!

It's easy to be gracious when you are on the winning team.
