Kranjcar shouldn't be in starting 11 on Sunday . Looked miles off the pace last time out. We need energy in midfield against them midfield 3- windass holt Halliday.
17 Oct 2016 06:54:08
Tend to agree with you darren72,although kranjcar is much fitter than he was against celtic last time out. In saying that niko was outstanding and motm imo, against ICT on friday night! He's getting there now and he's without question a tremendous midfielder with terrific technique and ability!
17 Oct 2016 08:14:49
My team against celtic on sunday would be a 4-2-3-1,which i know it probably won't be, but here goes anyway guys!
foderingham
tavernier, hill, wilson, wallace,
halliday, rossiter,
windass, holt, mckay,
miller
Thats my team fellow bears, looking forward to see all other bluenose's opinions on formation and team selection on here!
17 Oct 2016 08:20:08
Yeah let's not play the only international class player in our team, the best footballer in the league. Got to give Celtic a chance.
17 Oct 2016 08:41:31
Niko must start. He is our most creative player and is definitely fitter than he was. If anyone should be benched it should be wee Baz. Can't remember the last time he took on and beat his man.

Not bad SuperCoop!
I thought a 4-2-3-1 would be best too. The reason we lost last time was only 1 holding (Barton) and we lacked any enrgy to close down.
The only changes I would make are. Gilks in goal (its the cup so ts his game and hasn't done anything to lose his place) then move windass to left and play Waggy or MOH on the right.
I know Waggy has been poor but I basically feel that they have McKay's number and Windass is more of an unknown commodity to them. Also concern about goal options without Waggy!
17 Oct 2016 09:45:34
no chance of a goal with that team.
17 Oct 2016 10:14:10
We are going to go 4-3-3 as usual and I've got a horrible feeling keirnan is going to play otherwise why did warbs not play senderos against ict on Friday. I hope I'm wrong but manager seems to rate him.
17 Oct 2016 11:58:39
Aye cee, just like you said kenny miller should be nowhere near our starting line up against ICT on friday there, mum! Without question there's goals in the starting 11 i mentioned, ie. tav, windass, halliday holt, miller, yes miller cee!
17 Oct 2016 13:33:59
Miller is not good enough to be a sole striker. he drops far too deep trying to act like a footballer if he plays through the middle against celtic I doubt we will even have a shot.
17 Oct 2016 14:06:33
Agree with your team warbs15. I would bring kranjkar on when pace of game drops last 20 mins maybe.
17 Oct 2016 14:26:22
Miller is a certain starter against them on Sunday! By far the best one up front striker we have at ibrox. Honestly cee i sometimes wonder about you my friend. What are you actually watching?
17 Oct 2016 15:59:50
really you obviously don't watch our games. he drops in and most of the times is deeper than some of our midfielders his link up play 99 percent of time either results in him losing the ball or passing it straight back to the player who passed it. his passing is poor he can't hold the ball up. the only thing he brings is workrate but at his age how much can he give?
17 Oct 2016 16:25:15
I grant you that does happen sometimes but imo he's still by far the best striker we have at rangers to play the loan striker role! If you watch miller closely he's a very clever player as he drags opposition players out of position for other 'gers players to run into, he always creates space for which a windass, holt, mckay etc can run into to get beyond the striker which is so important. So that's what i see, cee!
18 Oct 2016 08:42:05
Why would anyone pick Rossiter in their starting 11 for Sunday the guy hasn't played in months and can't be match fit. We need a team of fully fit players if we are to have a remote chance of doing anything on Sunday.
18 Oct 2016 12:32:11
Is Senderos not better than Hill or Tiernan?
18 Oct 2016 14:12:38
I suspect that it will be the same team as started against ICT and I have a real concern about the defence. Unfortunately, in reality I would still have that concern with either Hill or Senderos in the team!
18 Oct 2016 16:30:29
Would like to see Warbs give our defense more protection, playing either a 4-2-3-1 or a 4-1-3-2 this would also help midfeild. The tic do have pace and imo its these games Warbs really does need to think about changing his system, as for Nico tell him he has the first 45 and to run his guts out.
18 Oct 2016 16:32:39
Actually like your ideas Jaws of putting Nico on last 20 when game levels dip.
