Rangers banter 10

Jeezo had to have a drink last night
As you can see from my posts 😅

But wtaf is going on with this team of players who can't live up to the pressure of trying to win a 2 horse race?

As I've said Before mass clear out is needed but where is the funds going to come from
With out winning league champions league etc

We just can't do it so where does that leave us all the fans and PC?
can't believe once again it's a like a crisis season because players just can't keep their bottle for a run in.

18 Apr 2024 06:45:21
Well it was fun while it lasted but I have to say I never expected a collapse like this. The players look terrified and when the guys who normally give you a 7/ 10 performance. drop off the others can't carry the burden, PC has a heck of a job on his hands and it'll take more than 1 window.

18 Apr 2024 05:35:29
As much as we blame our defenders and strikers a lot on here and justifiable at times we hardly create chances in our midfield area and this is very concerning. We just play the side way safe ball a lot of the time with none of our midfielders breaking the lines with that killer ball, not too mention not shooting anywhere near enough 👎It pains me to say it but that lot in the eastend of glasgow have hatate and o'riley who i have to admit are excellent midfielders who score and can produce that killer pass 🤔My worry and perhaps John227 could possibly enlighten us on this is ie. where do we generate the money from to get creative, goalscoring midfielders that will make the difference 🤔 Anyone who knows anything about the beautiful game, knows that if you're midfield is good and top notch you'll win the majority of your games, as that's mostly where it's won or lost 🤔I truly think we need at least 2 class midfield signings, that will massively make the difference 🤔We most definitely rely on our captain james tavernier far too heavily to bale us out in the attacking end of the pitch 🤔We also need a class defensive mid and class right sided centre half who have the ability to cover tav when he's attacking the opposition, on our right hand side and thus our team functions much better/ more efficient and fluid 🤔 That's what tav brings you if the balance of our team is spot on 🤔Thoughts guys.

18 Apr 2024 07:54:03
Walter, no, he's pants, deal with it and move on, caught out too many times and getting on, get rid for me, your wanting others to cover his failings, aye he has an eye for goal, never a defender. IMHO.

18 Apr 2024 07:58:59
Water we generate money for salary by getting rid of all players who r out of contract, those who when fit r first picks, they r never fit enough

Remember I said after Real Madrid friendly Jack woul seriously struggle to start ten games that season and was ot expected to ever start 20 in a season

Same re roofe, not expected to start 10 a season

At Xmas I’d have kept lundstrum, not so sure now

To help what will be another massive rebuild we need to involve Lovelace who I believe will go, yefeko McKinnon rice ishaka

Bosmans are key as r three or four big loans.

18 Apr 2024 07:59:11
Tavernier is a major part of the problems. Rewind the game from last night and watch how many times he gives the ball away. He’s now older so slower and defensively he’s a mare. Agree we need quality players brought in but we need of him and about ten others who are stealing a living.

18 Apr 2024 08:01:09
Yeh, I agree Sir Walt, said as much in a reply post a few days ago . I'm not saying Tav is a world class defender but put a solid RCH, and a fit Ryan Jack in beside diomande and you'll see a different team. Unfortunately RJ will never be season fit again so we need to identify someone and I'm sure PC and Koppen can do that.
That said, Tav was poor last night by his own standards, Lundstrum has went back to his old form and Silva and cantwell not looking great. I'd give Sima leeway as coming back from injury and I thought McCausland made a slight difference. Think I might play Ross wide right, Matondi wide left and Sima either 10 or thru middle.

18 Apr 2024 02:09:40
Given it's on the tip of all our tongues:

Let go list:
Butland (if over 10mil), McLaughlin
Tav, Goldson, Balogun, Barisic, Davies, King, Devine
Jack, Raskin, Wright, Silva, Cantwell (if over 5mil), Hagi, Cifuentes
Lammers, Roofe, Dessers

Thats 19 players, seems dramatic but all either past their best or not contributing.

18 Apr 2024 04:29:46
Trust me AC21,there won't be anywhere near that much of a cull and shouldn't be either as it ie. clement's rebuild will be done in stages mate 🤔 It's just not feesible to get rid of that amount of players in the one close season 🤔.

18 Apr 2024 04:52:59
😂😂😂😂 You should just have said everyone and saved yourself getting thumbs cramp!

18 apr 2024 05:48:43
players like goldson tav git very lucky in 55 season, no fansm no opposition, we are firtunate celtic chucked it or god knows how man6 they would be on now, hard to accept, yes, in my honest opinion, its a fact, lennon los5 his team and our players had no fans to worry about, i can't ignore that, the6ve shown how poor they ar3 many times,

18 Apr 2024 06:24:40
Agreed its d5amatic, but look at it the other way, which of ANY of these guys would you want to keep?

18 Apr 2024 06:53:28
agree with your list, but as others say not feasible to get rid of that many, but any out of contract have to go, that includes Lundstrum, of the others Lammers, cifuentes, hagi will also go, If King and McCronie have any sense for sake of there careers i would want out, if King does not get a look in at present with state of defence, what chance next season .

18 Apr 2024 06:58:41
I agree AC we need to empty a large chuck of these constant failures. If we keep Tav, Goldson, Lawrence, Dowell for example then we’re handing Celtic multiple titles and we’ll go though multiple managers.

18 Apr 2024 07:17:06
And yet you would keep Lundstram.

18 Apr 2024 07:30:04
Tbf coops we will prob need to sell butland to raise clement some cash. I'd perhaps keep cantwell raskin the rest of his list spot on I my opinion.

18 Apr 2024 11:52:49
For me Lundstram stays because he’s been our best player for the majority of the season.

18 Apr 2024 12:12:57
AC that's just a terrible over reaction of a list.

Cantwell isn't and shouldn't go anywhere, but I notice you've conveniently missed our consistently worst midfielder in tom lawrence.

King and devine have also played no part in this bottling. They need game time, King especially.

Also, 10m for butland is an insult.

18 Apr 2024 00:53:25
Find the blame of PC crazy, he has been working with a squad that wasn't is, had no money to spend in Jan hence loan market. Hampered by injuries for months and working with a leadership group who would struggle to lead a group of sheep. He's worked magic to even get us back into the title race with the potential of a treble while getting us through to Europa last 16 and very hard done by against a top side in Benfica. Give this man time and he will deliver.

18 Apr 2024 01:13:37
Exactly. Bring back Beale. Short memories.

18 Apr 2024 01:25:14
Spot on Dado, we were dead and buried before PC.

18 Apr 2024 01:33:14
That mobs results let us back in, still can't win when pressure on, no different from any manager before him . I'd be interested to see stats on games last previous managers MPH?

18 Apr 2024 05:43:08
So we heap praise on him for getting us back in the race even tho the squad isn't his but can't blame him when it's went all wrong.

18 Apr 2024 07:03:49
We’re dead and buried now guys? We’re on track to end the league at least 7 points behind and awful Celtic team.

I’m not convinced we’ll beat Hearts and I’m sure if we do our players will already have thrown in the towel against Celtic, the criticism of PC will be even more than now.

You have to win as a Rangers manager and you must beat Celtic, I can’t see PC doing either, not this season anyway.

If we don’t address these failures over the summer and start next season with them then we know what will happen around Christmas.

18 Apr 2024 07:32:34
Don't blame the manager, blame the same players who have bottled it and cost us so many times. Too many are mentally scarred and crumble when the pressure is on. Gstill trust the manager but he needs time and his own players in.

18 Apr 2024 11:54:31
Spot on HWG55 the same players have failed under 3/ 4 managers now, plus the new signings that are not of the required standard.

18 Apr 2024 00:43:31
Another poor show tonight. I can't think of any of our team apart from butland that's managed more than a 5 out of 10 in the last 4 games. maybe second half against them.

On Clem I think he has got his selections wrong and is tinkering with the team to much.

On the positive side, when clem came in. If you would have told me we would only be 3 points behind going into the split, I think most would agree, we would bite your hand off.
Maybe the cup will be a welcome break from the league but things will need to improve big time. I also think that they will drop points also. So still all to play for guys. As it stands they are massive fav for the title but fav don't always win.

18 Apr 2024 00:48:20
so far clement has followed in the footsteps of the past few managers and his record highlights that. they have all got a tune out of the players when there is zero pressure on them. then when we get into an actual battle we bottle it and clearly manager included. we even bottled the league under Gerrard and won with no fans. is this just coincidence or is there really more to it?

18 Apr 2024 00:53:21
I would agree Stewarty, it’s all about perception. Everyone said when PC came in that the cup double would be a success and that is still possible. The league is still possible as well, although not on current form, but you never know. I’m hoping the players think they can’t win it anymore because that when they play their best 😅.

I’m going to go ahead and say it because someone else will and I’ll get slaughtered by many, but IF we signed a certain Hearts striker I believe we could’ve been out of sight.

18 Apr 2024 00:56:57
Matondo and McCaulsand must start on Sunday Stewarty only wingers willing to take responsibility and take a man on/ have a shot.

18 Apr 2024 06:28:20
Sunday can't come quick enough for a hearts team looking for revenge after the last game, we aren't exactly putting the fear of God into anybody, and they will hit us from the first whistle. time for our whole team to show some Bawz!

17 Apr 2024 23:54:12
I can't believe what Clement has said regarding Dundee being lucky tonight am actually starting to question if he is the right man to take us forward that's 2 post match interviews that's been a lot of rubbish and his defending of that lap round Ibrox after dropping 2 points at home to them!

18 Apr 2024 05:42:31
Guys angry fgs, 2 bad interviews in 35 games give me a break, it wasn't a lap either, they clapped the support, just like they done last night, albeit an apologetic clap for a woeful display.

18 Apr 2024 06:47:10
G4 - I am sure he is saying much different in changing room - he must defend the lame old dog to the cameras as it still has work to do on the farm - when season is over it will be taken care of just as many of these under achievers must be removed from their posts - PC looked disgusted on the sideline with the usual array of misplaced Goldson long and short passes and lack of movement up front - It was an expected Horror Show - Over paid and Under achievers fill our team -TIME FOR CHANGE - I will truly judge PC when he has his own men in relevant places in the team.

18 Apr 2024 06:49:56
His comments were terrible after game. Says we were much better than against ross county . I didn't see it what game was he watching? That's worrying if he thinks that was much better!

18 Apr 2024 06:54:44
He knows it’s nowhere near good enough and I’d rather he just said less but he’s defending the players and that’s his style, he will do his talking privately.
He will also be aware of what he needs and who can leave and that’s not easy and will depend on funds etc.
His team selections last few games have not been great granted, but this is on the players they are simply not good enough all round to win the league.
Most of us felt awful start of season that we were still a bit behind Celtic and that’s how it’s turning out.
He has to get his own players in and next season will be key for him.

18 Apr 2024 07:04:59
I almost fell off my chair at this interview, that was not the best strategy for him and will backfire tremendously.

18 Apr 2024 08:03:46
His moral victory comment had made him look very foolish and now being brought up at every opportunity.

18 Apr 2024 08:08:01
Agree Bluefloyd, he can't rip them apart on camera, when he needs them with him for the run in, sure he's firm but supportive of his players and knows that they all know only a handful of them will be there next year.
