Anyone worked out yet what Gerard was trying to do yesterday? I haven't. Why he tried to play everything narrow through the middle is beyond me. We had 3 in midfield in Davis, Jack, and, Kamara and they had 2 but still won the midfield, why? Had Candeias and Kent still been with us, he would surely have played both. So, does he not trust JJ, Ojo, and what's happened to Hastie? Why is he rotating the team already? Yes, it'll be a long season but we're only 4 games in and he's tinkering. Get the points on the board early and then rotate as the season goes on, is that not the best policy?, the players shouldn't be tired yet? Due to trying to be too clever he's handed the momentum to them. Yesterday was a massive opportunity and we blew it completely. For those who listened to Gerards post match interview, I was shocked when he said players deserve credit for going in neck and neck yesterday, wow, really, after 3 games players should be getting credit. Now, I know I'll get stick for the above, but that gutless, clueless, inept performance will take a long time to forget.

Harsh to critise Gerrard but he was way off yesterday and the lack of options going forward is worrying. Stewart Jones hastie ain't an upgrade on candeias.

Gerrard got it wrong when playing them . again! I guess he thought they would set up for us playing wide and did the opposite. He should have set up to get at that back 4.

think your forgetting how up and down Candeias was. He was a journeyman, who did okay for us, nothing more. SG tactics and picked players were wrong yesterday. He kind of said that himself. He's a young, inexperienced manager, he's made some mistakes but I think we're a better team now and I think we'll still have a good season.

He played narrow against them in last season's last old firm game at ibrox and we beat them with ease 2-0
So as much as i thought he should have played with much more width yesterday, because of their weakness in the full back areas, he still wasn't solely to blame, as way too many of our players, just didn't do it yesterday. Sometimes tactics can be a smokescreen when there's other things to blame. No knee jerk reactions from me at this stage of the season.

we badly need a big man up front and that was clear yesterday. why he hasn't signed that position totally mistyfies me and may well get him sacked if not addressed.
