Anyone else noticed that cardoso looks disinterested. just his body language and when players take him on he let's them cut inside that Murray goal against us last week was terrible defending. lovenkrands said the day whys cardoso letn isma cut inside

19 Aug 2017 21:37:43
The board have to take responsibility for this appointment just because they are friends with Pedro Mendes doesn't meant they had to sign his pal and the rest of his client list, they guys record is terrible, he has had the last few months of last season, taken us to our worst defeat in Europe and this season we are already five behind after 3 games and we escaped the Motherwell game it could be worse, ah I've had my rant should have been a rangers man in charge.
19 Aug 2017 22:14:35
Astonishing appointment. A man with no real pedigree no knowledge of the Scottish game and responsible for some of the most embarrassing results in the clubs history.
19 Aug 2017 22:51:23
Brian I agree 100 % The pc appointment is a monumental mistake probably worse than le guen. DK has backed the wrong horse and he probably knows it already. PC is out his depth. People say give him time. They are Deluded. No chance. The evidence over the past 6 months is overwhelming. Time to cut losses. Anyone who thinks Dalcio is a footballer and would cut it here hasn't a clue.
20 Aug 2017 00:50:12
Am telling all us bears and it's only end August, cax isn't the man for rangers. To many passengers a feel it in my gut. We need a rangers man like mcleish. in charge. Dread the tic game
19 Aug 2017 21:36:20
After 2 league games can't believe what I'm watching, why does he persist with playing candrais how many time was he 1 on1 with a defender and can't beat him we have rossiter and kranjar on the bench there's no intensity nobody willing to run at a player. jack and dorrans are to similar. hearts are garbage and we never tested there keeper. square ball square ball letting teams get behind the ball surely kranjar the player to play that killer ball, looks like Pedros lost standing on the touch line pathetic.
19 Aug 2017 22:29:24
spot on dobbs - worrying signs today
after last week i'd have thought we'd have been outbreaks all over them from 1st whistle with something to prove after hibs result but we weren't at races very flat slow all over park 2nd to ball and we ran out of ideas early on - that's biggest concern
i like dorrans and think he'll do well for us but he was poor today. I thought wee morelos did well up on his own but he's screaming out for a strike partner - miller is always 30yd away fannying about in midfield - stay in box kenny it's what your best at
I'd go get moult asap he wld make us a threat in opppsition box &would give defenders something to think
about would attack our crosses get goals and create space for morelos and others
19 Aug 2017 22:51:00
I thought Candieas at least tried to be direct and get balls into the box but Morelos had no support as Miller dropped deep and was effectively playing in midfield.
We need a target man other than Herrera.
Sign Moult.
19 Aug 2017 23:21:35
i think candeias is doing a better job than a few others for us, totally agree pace we played at was far slow. kept giving hearts all the time in the world to organise their two banks. for what its worth, kranjcar was honking today, slowed it down worse than anyone! thought he was playing a pre season game with all the crap he pulled
19 Aug 2017 23:31:06
Candeias is one of the better players imo! At least he runs at people
20 Aug 2017 01:46:04
Rossiter is a defensive midfielder so I don't see how he would improve the team by running at people and Kranjcar is a class act but I don't think he's ever ran at people in his career, he doesn't have the legs for it. Candeias has probably been the most direct player we've had so far
19 Aug 2017 19:47:40
There's only 1 person knows what it takes to win a league title and that's Walter get him back before it's too late honestly a know there will be people on here saying naw but honestly he's got what it takes to install fight and winning mentality into these players honestly
19 Aug 2017 20:45:44
I don't think he'd ruin his legacy by coming back a 3rd time
19 Aug 2017 21:03:16
To stop them winning more titles he's the only one capable of stopping them
19 Aug 2017 21:07:18
Walter and no money. i'd love to see that
19 Aug 2017 21:11:37
Walters too old now forget it
19 Aug 2017 21:12:23
There is money
19 Aug 2017 21:39:28
I agree wattie all day long
19 Aug 2017 21:42:45
The manager is clueless and the appointment was baffling. Couldn't beat a woeful Hearts team who were as bad as I can remember. Already well behind in the league and some of the signings are strange to say the least. Dalico disappeared already, Pena bought for big money deemed not fit to play and Herrera who looks like he pulls a caravan with him when he tries to run. Also Miller playing wide this week and centre midfield last week? Honestly it's like watching an episode of faulty towers watching the manager and his tactics
19 Aug 2017 23:32:32
I'm not saying I don't want Walter! Of course I do but there's no way he'd ruin his legendary status by taking over this dross
20 Aug 2017 01:47:30
Walter is a legend but folk need to stop the attitude of let's run back to Walter when something goes wrong. Let the man enjoy his retirement
19 Aug 2017 19:43:10
Is beerman injured or what? weird how he can play so well for us but can't get on bench now
19 Aug 2017 19:42:13
I agree the manager should get to Xmas, but WTF is Pena? Why did he not get last half hour, if he's not match fit then only way he's going to get it is if we start bringing him on and slowly get his minutes (game time) up. Even start at 10-15 to go then 30, and so on. But he's came on once for 10 mins. It needs sorted him and dorrans were our markee signings
19 Aug 2017 21:23:52
Dutchy I have bad news I'm afraid. Pena Herrera and Dalcio are complete waste of money duds. Anyone who says give them time is deluded. They are not suited to our game. DK has backed a donkey in pc. A major mistake in the le Guen category. PC is out of excuses. He Is see clueless and needs to go sooner rather than later
20 Aug 2017 01:39:03
How can u call pena a dud ya nutter he's only played 5 mins lol!
19 Aug 2017 19:35:21
after 3 games wee sitting in 6 place no goal diffrence 5 points adrift this along with last season results and euro results is kind of worrying to see if we get beat by celtic by a large score line then pedro has to go in my opinion
The transfer dealing this summer should been handeld diffrent we should went for dorrans walker mcclean naismith cummings and may this would made sure we hit the ground running then went for for foreign players we can not keep realying on miller for goals yet he starts every game
19 Aug 2017 20:47:45
Yip homegrown players in the majority was way to go with a couple of foreign players like alves, cardoso and morelos
19 Aug 2017 19:08:06
Dazbear the breadmans duds had us in 2nd place before he left and continue to score now they are away from ibrox. I honestly hope i'm wrong but really not convinced with pc.
19 Aug 2017 17:52:02
Completely devoid of an attacking tactic or strategy today. Miller, Windass and Kranjcar were very poor.
Dorrans and Jack sit far too deep which invites teams into our half. Our players lack composure and are passing the ball needlessly. Not one player looks to understand that you win at Ibrox.
Jamie Walker was anonymous. I hope we don't sign him. We need better quality than that!
19 Aug 2017 18:05:11
Rumour has it he got his license at Troon pity it was a fishing license
19 Aug 2017 18:20:27
Do believe the time has come for big decisions to be made by the board before it gets any worse. We're crying out for a Centre Forward can't depend on Kenny Miller he can't go forever.
19 Aug 2017 18:46:18
All attacking players were sold.
19 Aug 2017 19:32:56
Kenny miller runs around like a headless chicken surprised he didn't have a turn in nets instead of fod. Buy his best time for the bench
19 Aug 2017 19:36:28
Morelos will score plenty if he gets service. love his passion and fight and determination. only 20 or 21 yr old tae
19 Aug 2017 20:20:18
Morelos will score but he needs a big physical striker upfront with him.
Either play Herrera or sign Moult from Motherwell.
19 Aug 2017 20:50:08
Yeah! Morelos looks to me to b the pick of the new guys! Still raw but seems like a natural goalscorer! He needs a striker to compliment/ help him tho! Physical type
19 Aug 2017 17:44:55
Absolute panic merchants!
19 Aug 2017 17:53:46
Dazbear you can't be happy with the results and team performances during the managers tenure. No panic just a realisation that its not good enough.
19 Aug 2017 18:33:10
Ar9 last season Pedro inherited the bread mans duds,
He has carried out an absolute clear out, he has tried to buy the best players with the hand given to him and is still trying to strengthen the team, the x9 players he has brought in will naturally take time to adjust have patience
So far other than Pena who we have not seen much of and Herrera are the only ones I would say are not performing
If for example a team plays 11 men behind a ball it's always going to be difficult to break down, my problem was today they kept on floating balls in to the box when hearts have a lot of tall players!
19 Aug 2017 18:48:40
Panic merchants? No, some of us were baffled by the appointment from day one.
Hopefully when we get round to selecting a new manager it won't be the same team that picked Pedro. I assume next time round the new DOF will have the biggest say.
19 Aug 2017 19:00:04
If you were going to the games you would seem the improvements being made week by week. The team are showing signs that they are getting better and with the additional players needed we will be stronger and fighting for second with an eye on knocking Celtic off next season. You can't blame last season on him. Now support the team.
19 Aug 2017 19:29:25
No panic. Will finish second and win a cup. However Miller and Kranjar need to move on, with the Mexicans and bring in attacking players that will do a job. Last year we drew 11 games and had a goal difference of 9. That is about to happen again.
19 Aug 2017 19:32:26
I agree wuth you there det
19 Aug 2017 19:34:52
There's no improvement we've moved second rate out and have brung more in. No finisher in the team the ball gets passed from side to side pointless
19 Aug 2017 17:44:11
It's not the best of starts to be honest but most of the team are gelling and there is also the communication factor
I think you can only start to assess Pedro Caixinha after 10 games
If we have less than 20 points then it really is not good enough and it is probably fair to say he needs to move on
19 Aug 2017 17:27:55
Sorry to say i told you so but.4 points from first 3 games simply not good enough. What about the big summer buys, nowhere to be seen. A blind man can see we needed someone who can put the ball in the net. Aberdeen celtic and st johnston all several points above us and we have to play all three of them. On this form will struggle to get top 6 never mind top 3. Taxi to Glasgow Airport for PC.
19 Aug 2017 17:35:19
totaly agree. i really did think pena and herrera would do well as they played at a high standard. a proper manager must come in. the team is crying out for 352. for that to work we must get 2 new wing backs and goal scorer.
19 Aug 2017 17:45:20
4 points out of 9, two games at home, we're done and dusted already. Season over, hand Celtic the title.
19 Aug 2017 17:55:53
Have to agree with u @kfrazer . really worrying we are 4pts behind already . another disappointing performance . what makes it worse is the players we have sold are now coming on to a game . does Pedro really know what he's doing?
20 Aug 2017 04:05:15
Been saying for over a year now that we should be playing a 3-5-2.
We have a squad that is suited to that system.
Wilson Alves Cardoso
Tav Jack Dorrans Pena Wallace
Morreles Herrera (preferably Moult)
Perfect for our squad.
19 Aug 2017 17:05:59
Kellio i agree he has ran out of excuses. 3 of his signings are complete duds (dalcio pena and herrera) . I got pelters during the week for stating mcinnes was the right man for the job at the time. Both Tommy Wright and McInnes could have done a far better job. League is over and its still mid August. PC your time is up .
19 Aug 2017 17:16:26
Pedro THANKS AND GOODBYE!
19 Aug 2017 19:59:26
I know we've only played 3 games but were to far behind the green n white already, I think tommy wright will be in by Xmas ii
19 Aug 2017 17:05:37
Don't normally post on here and don't normally panic, but this is looking like a long season. 2 most expensive buys nowhere to be seen. Need to get rid quick, take a hit. Same with the manager, let's not wait until Christmas.
19 Aug 2017 16:55:40
When will the penny drop? Perdro out his depth, doesn't know a player, waghorn, garner, McKay, o Halloran all score today! Enough said! Get your coat Pedro!
19 Aug 2017 19:02:48
so why didn't they above players win the league last season, wise up
19 Aug 2017 16:53:20
As i stated back in july after the progres game this has plg written all over it.
The league is going to be over by ostober.
Pedro has not got a clue aberdeen and the tims are going to be out of sight, he needs replaced please stop defending him saying we are a team in transition we are a team in turmoil.
We have gathered a decent squad with a proper manager in place we can still turn this around.
BTW moh garner waggy mckay in the goals today and to make things worse the gers bust my coupon today but i'll still pay pedros taxi to the airport, shocking appointment to begin with, portugese nit
19 Aug 2017 16:58:32
What absolute crap pedro get on your bike not a clue
19 Aug 2017 17:43:36
What a bunch of panic merchants, hearts played with 11 men behind the ball today it's always going to be hard to break that down, don't think rangers played that bad, Pedro will do ok three games in and yous are flappin,
Get a grip!
19 Aug 2017 18:21:09
Daz bear pedro had chances league is over. it will become embarrassing if pedro remains in fact was bad enough with worst result in rangers history losing to 4th best team in Luxembourg now can't beat poor hearts team at ibrox and losing at home to the wee ginger Tim. mcinness as said before season started should have been kings 1st signing king has been very I'll advised in appointing pedro
19 Aug 2017 19:05:04
Panic merchants dazbear. don't think so. persevere with wee Pedro and maybe relegation beckons.
19 Aug 2017 20:01:28
Relagation my arse just because they were coupon buster they will come good
20 Aug 2017 13:34:01
They've no chance of coming good. coupon busters nah. who in they're right mind would put that lot in a coupon! . wee Pedro's For the offski before the Clocks go back in October. Relegation's a real possibility. wait till they play Hamilton accies then you'll Realise how bad they really are.
19 Aug 2017 14:05:17
RANGERSFC XI: Foderingham, Tavernier, Alves, Cardoso, Wallace, Candeias, Jack, Dorrans, Windass, Miller, Candeias.
19 Aug 2017 14:17:37
Come on Rangers! 🔴⚪🔵 I have a feeling we will start strong and fast, get a quick goal and hopefully a few more will follow, IF we can just find a way to keep that level up and not slack off
19 Aug 2017 14:20:42
Candeias is that good there are two of him! Haha.
Hopefully we will get an early goal an keep the pressure on for the 90. No reds would be a bonus as well! 👍
19 Aug 2017 14:38:03
Young Hardie on the bench, would love the boy to come on and get a goal. Neither Hierra or the young Potuguese winger included in match squad.
19 Aug 2017 02:45:12
Av posted bfore about goncalves from hearts he's strong speed power. would take him bfore moult.
