Was at the game today. Was not impressed with Wilson today, but we won with a Hibs team that had everyone behind the ball. This is a young team that will only learn and get better.Mid field apart from law are good footballers, but might need to beef it up, when we get back up next year. Still, three points, name if the game

Watched the game today, didn't see Wilson do anything wrong other than a stupid booking, looks great in the air and his distribution was excellent -he'll go on to be a Rangers Legend!

I watched Wilson play about 15 times last season and he was excellent. Distribution great, strong in the air, visibly communicating with all - especially the back four - and never diving into the challenge. He may have more to do this year due to Warburton's preferred style - but he's a player already - not one in the making.
Onwards and upwards.

I'm not a fan of wilson either if I'm honest. I thought law played well today though. Also I think we will be tighter at the back if we could accomodation Ball in a holding role or Eustace when fit.
A wee injury scare for Wallace aswell and we have no real cover in either full back position. I keep saying it but I'd be surprised if we didn't sign another full back.
Agree2

24 Aug 2015 01:14:15
We have a few boys that can be slotted into the left back position so not at all concerned
Goalkeeper looking better the last few games
What I like about Foderingham is he is a tall commanding keeper and is good at grabbing the ball SAFE HANDS
Yes defensively we can look suspect sometimes! We will get that sorted out I am sure
Still reckon we can do with bring in another striker before the deadline but if not I am sure we will be fine up until January

The sign of a championship winning team is to win "ugly".
Still some tweeking needing done but in MW we have a more than capable manager.
Big decision in the next week, in my opinion, will be to have faith in Eustace, find a replacement or maybe even play 3 at the back, with one of them pushing forward to play as a deep mid-fielder.

Alaska means six competitive wins in a row since taking charge wull. He's the first rangers manager since bill struth to achieve that target. Yes ally had more wins than that in a row but not directly following his managerial appointment and not as part of a record number of wins either.

That was arguably our slackest performance so far, and hibs best. Yet we still took the 3 points. They had a couple of chances but the best saves of the game was all from their keeper. So it could of been more. We looked too good in that second half for them. Just needed the extra goal for it to be comfortable

Rode our luck today defensively. Can't give teams that amount of chances . Still a good result tho.
Was disappointed with Law, he slows the tempo down and doesn't have the drive or energy going forward. Also think we have to stop trying to walk the ball into the net, an out n out centre forward is needed.

Zelalem could take his spot. That being said, the Law of this year is streets ahead of the law we seen last year. I am pleased with his performances and the way he has upped his efforts. I seen him throw himself into a tackle this year, which is something he wasnt prepared to do for us at all last year. Hopefully the talent and depth we have will keep him on his toes.

I was a bit nervous watching that today. I'm not convinced with the keeper and 2 centre backs passing out of defence. It's hard to be too critical on the keeper though as it's not his main job. We seem a bit lightweight in midfield and allowed Hibs to come into the game. Just aswell their finishing was poor. I think we seemed a bit nervous at times. Still 3 points is the most important thing.

That was Foderingham's best game today, kept us in it at nothing each. He has all the attributes of being an outstanding keeper, rather than get on his back why not question the managers decisions / tactics not to allow him to punt the ball when required. Keepers are not sweepers and if you want him to play football then we need to accept the risk that he might lose the ball.

We Seem to forget he is a very young keeper as well. I would also not lay criticism on Kiernan or Wilson. Halliday is not a DM. he is doing well enough, but it isn't his role for me. Tavs and Wallace are awesome at bombing forward but are leaving our two CB's vulnerable, but with more games their understanding and decision making will improve. It's the most criticism they have received and their only clean sheet together? Most have done something right.
