Yimaz a doubt for sat after suffering a relapse of his injury and was in tears according to PC. Story in DR.
24 May 2024 02:01:47
Im in tears too having to watch barasic or sterling not being in midfield.
24 May 2024 05:39:22
Another one whos constantly injured. Get hom gone end of season also.
24 May 2024 07:47:48
Fraser will play at left back ahead of barasic.
24 May 2024 08:25:18
Agree Paul, I like Ridvan but we need players on the pitch most games.
24 May 2024 08:34:23
That’s correct Paul, sad but true. Likeable guy but too unreliable. Needs to be replaced.
24 May 2024 08:44:00
That would be a very brave move from Clement StevieG2.
24 May 2024 08:57:45
Just hasn't been able to cope physically with our game, time to go.
24 May 2024 09:04:24
Not sure about that stevie, Oda left him on his arse in the hearts game a couple of times, too soon for fraser I would think. looks like a promising attacking full back though.
24 May 2024 09:19:46
Beginning to look like he’s not got the minerals.
24 May 2024 09:28:48
Fraser is nowhere near ready for old firm cup final hearts boy ran him ragged last weekend.
24 May 2024 09:41:20
Too soon for Fraser . It'll destroy his confidence. He's a prospect but not this game for the lad. Looks like sterling left back.
24 May 2024 09:45:10
Sterling will be left back I think storm if balogun is fit to play CB
Defence will be
Tav-Balogun-Davies-Sterling.
24 May 2024 11:17:25
Storm, I don’t think tavernier is ready yet either.
24 May 2024 12:05:26
If Fraser isn't good enough now at 21 years old then why even keep him. Why are we wrapping these kids in cotton wool, it'll make him or break him and we'll see what he's really made of. Let the boy have his opportunity. Madness saying he's not ready. None of the team appeared to be ready to play them all season. Fraser will fade back into obscurity over the summer if he doesn't make his mark now.
24 May 2024 12:27:19
I'll tell you guys, tav doesn't half get it tight on here ?If he scores the winner the morra, he'll be the best thing since sliced bread by the haters ?I most certainly wouldn't put it past tav to score the winner against them the morra ?As an earlier poster stated, our new left back signing jefte is exactly a carbon copy of tav, only on the other side ?I wonder how long it will take for some on here to absolutely roast him ?.
24 May 2024 12:28:20
Hamstring needs eased back Paul so let get rid of Sterling as well then eh.
24 May 2024 12:43:08
Yilmaz is one of our best players, clearly fitness needs work on this summer, mostly hamstrings injuries.
24 May 2024 12:49:39
Walter if he scored the winner tomorrow it'll be great but it won't paper over the cracks in his game and it won't change my mind about wanting him away. By the way he's only ever scored once in a game that we've beaten them and it was another dead rubber. Hopefully he's spending today working out how to compete with maeida instead of dreaming about scoring winners.
24 May 2024 12:51:52
I agree bgate.
Coops doesn’t matter if he scores the winner tomorrow he still needs to go been here too long and not won enough and a Scottish cup won’t change that.
24 May 2024 12:52:30
My star you can defend him all you want yes he is a good player but he is injury prone and needs to go for that reason.
24 May 2024 13:05:17
Think we should ask new signings for their city&guilds. Casualty.
24 May 2024 13:11:21
Best player based on what star in the sky 2 years of injury? Htf do you know he’s one of our best players based on a handful of appearances? Best ability is availablity. I don’t blame anyone for getting a bit tired of Ridvans injuries. We need players not casualties, in the exact culture we are or should be getting rid off. Honestly star in the sky your comments are wacko!
24 May 2024 13:21:06
Maybe he needs fitness worked on at Rangers storm, never had previous, mostly hamstring injuries, rushed back causes this, Sterling has missed as many games as he's played this season just get rid of him aswell storm aye? Clement has said he get to the bottom of our injuries, let just wait and see, we need both them as our fullbacks next season, worry is Yilmaz could be in the turkey euros squad he was in England at 19.
24 May 2024 13:43:24
Walter have you ever seen jefte play to say he's a carbon copy of tav. i can almost out my house on it he won't flog as many goals as tav.
24 May 2024 13:43:27
Obviously best player on ability mrranger.
24 May 2024 13:44:18
Tav must be statistically rangers worst ever captain?
24 May 2024 14:09:06
Our "CAPTAIN" can certainly be given some leeway due to his ability going forward and scoring record however, he get's exactly what he deserves when it comes to defending, something he's in the team to do first and foremost. Surely he'd be a better asset in midfield with a solid defender behind him.
He regularly makes costly decisions in defence leaving us with no opportunity to correct it, in midfield we should be able to clean up after him. Let young Fraser start tomorrow with Tav in front of him, surely together they'd decapitate Maeda.
24 May 2024 14:17:28
Read my post Paul86,?it was another poster who had read or seen something as regards to jefte being a carbon copy of tav on the left side ?.
24 May 2024 14:18:43
He's not in the turkey squad ?.
24 May 2024 14:48:09
Tavernier doesn’t have haters just critic’s, after all we’re all entitled to an opinion. He plays well tomorrow I’ll be the first to praise his performance, will definitely get behind him and the team. I’ve met tavernier personally and he’s a really nice bloke. He’s actually too nice especially on the pitch.
24 May 2024 14:55:49
You know I hate when people say too soon for Fraser he’s 21 years old
Player never make it at rangers because people don’t show faith in them
Look at how Mayo has developed with a full season under his belt
Sorry but if I was a father of one of these lads I’d tell them to stay 3 years when youth then leave better chance returning if you do well elswhere.
24 May 2024 14:56:17
King will never make it at rangers while he’s just being kept around to fill a quota.
24 May 2024 14:59:07
Hope Tav lifts the trophy tomorrow, doesn't change anything, he's not he same guy anymore, and he himself probably knows it.
24 May 2024 16:16:29
As pointed out Walter not tav haters, critics who can see how poor he is, fair chance he could score a penalty winner, free kick mb direct from corner.
But going forward he is finished
Why never answer question re Jon McLaughlin hater.
24 May 2024 16:51:25
Gofor, ok it’s not too soon for him he just isn’t good enough then would you prefer that? He got tore a new one against hearts .
Mystar, you are brilliant my friend using he could be in Turks squad for euros then find out he isn’t ?. I said he is a good player but he is no use to us being injured the same way u wanted rid of Jack and roofe.
John you won’t get an answer from coops as he would need to admit he does it as well which he will never admit to even tho everyone sees it ?.
I don’t hate any rangers players. I will criticise them tho if I think it’s deserved and with Tav it’s deserved.
24 May 2024 17:18:39
Storm i never said he was in the European squad did i? ?i said he was in the last one, he needs a good pre season behind him, best lb we've had for donkeys, let's see him next season, same happens then think about selling.
24 May 2024 17:21:52
I’d play a back 5 with Yilmaz out,
Tav-Sterling-Souter (assuming fit) -Davies-Borna.
Let’s Tav and Borna get forward with cover and Sterling will take good care of their flying winger on the right, Lundstrum holding so can drop back allowing us to get the best out of Tav and Borna in an attacking sense and keep them high up the park as possible.
They will s##t it if we do that.
24 May 2024 19:23:57
John i agree the tav of old going forward seems long gone. Now highlights 10 fold how bad he is defensively.
24 May 2024 20:15:12
Correct John ??????.
24 May 2024 22:39:32
CO2 don’t think we have tried a back five and not sure a weeks preparation for an old firm final is the time to try it,
Also need the right personnel to play that system.
25 May 2024 04:26:22
@Hammerite - tav can't win with the fans. Yes he's a defender first and foremost and I do agree there are certainly better out there in that department but why are we not looking at the formation change of the team when tav goes forward or barasic, someone needs to drop back from midfield to let the cb spread wide for cover, can't expect the man to be our best provider and playmaker outside the 6 yard box of opponents and be able to cover his defensive duties. He's an attacking out ball that when he doesn't bomb forward, the midfield look lost like they don't know what to do then pass back.
25 May 2024 09:52:20
Storm just not good enough is a fair opinion
I’m not saying I rate him either I’m just saying it as an overall youth development age thing.
25 May 2024 09:54:50
Storm, Did I ever say I rated him or thought he should start? No!
Is it not fair to say by 21 player should have made more progress than just getting his first appearance already puts him years behind other players.
25 May 2024 09:58:24
Also tried to tell people there was something there in lammers if he was given a chance to play his proper position and not used as deep lying forward / midfielder.
25 May 2024 09:59:31
Mystar, I'd agree on formation accept for lundstrum place should go to someone who wants to be at the club and is fully comitted.
25 May 2024 10:00:20
And when has lundstrum done well in old firm game, maybe one decent game in his who time vs them.
25 May 2024 10:04:09
True blue, he’s just told you the personal to do it
And he’s speaking about hypothetical what he’s do so the weeks prep talk is stupid cause if it was my star he would have started training on it long ago
Remember it’s hypothetical his opinion
Let’s face it what we’ve done so far with personal has not worked so you want to do just more of the same?
I get where he’s coming from last time we looked dominate over Celtic we had jack falling in to cover tav on the right so can see that’s what he’s think re Sterling.
25 May 2024 10:08:32
Lol, I said about tav going forward two years ago. ??? One of best long range shooters can cross can link up well makes sense. Makes even more sense now his pace is dying.
Never could defend been at fault for far too many goals in big games just like Goldson. they are the two constants in our long failing run vs Celtic. tav gets some reprieve because he’s been decent going forward and the manager's decision to keep him at right back, means he can only try to do the job he's told to. So I’m not too harsh on tav, still think he could do a great job for us at right wing.
