Looks like the statment from Alex Rae about new investment is gathering pace. Roll on Tiesday.



24 Nov 2019 19:10:19
I know i stated weeks ago i wouldn't come back on here, i've decided against my decision back then because in general i enjoy this facility that the ED'S provide us with and all our different views, as we're all bears together wanting what's best for our beloved rangers.

I was just sick of passing on info that i'd heard and sharing it with everyone on here and getting shot down for doing so. Surely that's what these pages are for and all about, whether we agree or not is a different matter. Now to more pressing matters and onto our game against hamilton accies today.

I find myself totally agreeing with the super one ally mccoist. Our centre halfs are very short of pace and have to be more concentrated on their positional sense more so as they're worryingly exposed for pace regularly. Michael beale has stated that he thinks george edmundson has the potential to be better than our other 3 centre halfs, connor goldson, nikola katic and filip helander.

So what's happening with edmundson i wonder, as he's not getting a look in. He's most definitely faster than the other 3 and i must admit i've been impressed everytime edmundson has played for us.

Although at the beginning i was raving about goldson, no player should be guaranteed their place especially if they're not playing to their full potential. Like most i thought the two ryan's jack and kent were easily our best two players against hamilton today. We can now all see kent is getting closer to match fitness now and we can see he's class and our most creative player within ibrox.

We must sharpen up defensively for our upcoming Betfred league cup final against celtic or they will punish us. I am concerned about our lack of pace in the centre of our defence. Good to be back on here and i've missed it. Coldo like many but you in particular mate always stated how good ryan kent is and i always agreed with you because kenty is quality pal, no doubt about it.



24 Nov 2019 19:34:45
Welcome back mate ๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 19:34:54
Welcome back Coop Katic is far and away our fastest CB and inho the best.



24 Nov 2019 20:14:30
There he is๐Ÿ˜. Welcome back mate. Kent is class and katic is our fastest and best CB, it astounds me how he doesn't play. I was very disappointed in aribo again today and ojo did nothing when he came on. Kent is a class above! ๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 20:19:09
I think edmundson is easily our fastest centre half Bluepete36.



24 Nov 2019 20:24:26
Welcome back Coops, some people will find fault in anything a body has to say and will ridicule them for saying it. My advice, don't let them get you down. So what if it turns out to be duff, it's the Rangers rumours page, not the Rangers it's set in stone 100% pure dead on true page.



24 Nov 2019 20:38:24
Could be a toss up between katic and edmundson. Both are quick๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 20:57:10
I can only assume sg sees something in training with regards to the centre halves. Welcome back coop, missed those really long posts of yours๐Ÿ˜‰.



24 Nov 2019 21:28:53
Welcome back Coops, the forum's been too dull without you pal. Keep believing, and posting ๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 21:30:44
Welcome back SGL, we've missed your comments. As for our CB's, SG has tried a few permutations, and seems to have settled on Goldson and Helander, let's just leave it to the gaffer, he's seeing the same as us, he'll sort it, don't worry, onwards and upwards for the Gers.



24 Nov 2019 23:17:55
Coop I have been called a tim, a naysayer, a racist etc. Some people will go to extraordinary lengths to try and find any excuse to gain some ground when you prove them wrong๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 22:58:30
Welcome back coops!
You've been badly missed.
Keep posting my man as we need more bears like you on here. ๐Ÿ”ดโšช๐Ÿ”ต๐Ÿ‘.



25 Nov 2019 00:08:38
Welcome back Coop you have been missedโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง.



25 Nov 2019 01:03:47
the only thing coldo can prove is a welcome back coop. and me too.



25 Nov 2019 06:27:30
Totally appreciate all your comments guys, i really do so thanks very much for that. We are afterall, all bears together on here with different views and different rumours/ stories. ๐Ÿ‘.



25 Nov 2019 08:19:20
Chill coop u know what people r like here, me included
Welcome back.



25 Nov 2019 09:07:43
Welcome back SGL have missed all the rumours you put on this site. ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บโšฝ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘.



25 Nov 2019 10:30:27
Welcome back SGL๐Ÿ‘.



25 Nov 2019 10:31:34
When was the race to find out who our fastest CH is?
Or is this just based on opinions watching a game of football and someone sprinting for 2, 3, 5 or 10 yards? ๐Ÿค”.



25 Nov 2019 10:58:02
Well, after all that. Kent is apparently class. Well blow me, your Crystal balls are operating at full steam. We are in debt ( Morelos will clear all debt) and still invest 7mil on. yip a class player. What a revelation!
Oh. Edmondson fastest and future CD. I've got a crystal ball too.



25 Nov 2019 11:52:00
Think it's back to KFC for the colonel๐Ÿ˜‰.



25 Nov 2019 13:42:22
Welcome back Coop and donโ€™t be so thin skinned. Hear what your saying about central defence and although a few poor decisions yesterday the current pairing look confident dealing with set plays and have decent record Believe the problem position to be at RB where Tav continues to underperform as player and captain.



25 Nov 2019 15:56:49
I think the rub of it is that you can't take it when someone calls you out for being wrong, Coldo. Your howls of disaproval at our own players on the back of GREAT results are telling of your over-entitled part-time fan status. Mon the Gers.



25 Nov 2019 16:21:54
Extraordinary lengths indeed souness, keep up the trolling๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 18:22:37
well my 6-0 scoreline didn't happen---should have scored a barrowload today but 3 points are 3 points. someone has to teach tav how to deliver a low hard cross in to the 6 yard box----strikers love that and big gangly defenders hate those type of crosses---.



24 Nov 2019 16:00:30
Just hope Ryan Jack doesn't get injured. And Arfield looks half the player he was possibly as he being played out of position, think he would be better in the mid 3 rather than front 3.



24 Nov 2019 17:18:55
Agree were screaming out for a right sided winger imo.



24 Nov 2019 19:25:39
I agree. Arfield lols nothing like the player of last season. I know he played through the summer with Canada but he is rested enough by SG to be able to perform when called upon.



24 Nov 2019 14:32:20
Big 3 points considering how rubbish we were. We really can't defend like that against Feyenoord or that lot in the final or we could be in trouble. Hopefully just a bit rusty after international break.



24 Nov 2019 14:47:33
Sir Struth, I wholly agree with all you say, but, I am heartily sick of us being crap after an International break, Celtic certainly weren't, and we cannot defend like that on Thursday or against them in the final. We are so laid back at times it worries me, we score after 7 minutes, and I'm thinking 5, 6 or 7 nil, no disrespect to Hamilton who are injury ravaged and played a few kids today, but we should have been out of sight after scoring so early.

Tavernier will still have those who defend him, but 3 times in the second half he was caught out of position, and we were lucky not to lose a goal.

I'm happy to win, but, we have to be more switched on defensively if we want to win anything this season.



24 Nov 2019 15:00:47
Irvger, we were discussing Tav, he's either a love or hate him. We think he would benefit from serious competition for that position. He's on the team sheet every game and has become complacent. I agree it was hardly a Sterling performance but still 3 points. Let's step it up on Thursday lads.



24 Nov 2019 15:12:48
How bad was that 2nd half from the Captain. Absolutely shocking carved open time and time again. Almost not even tracking back. Constantly over hitting crosses. So bad. Fortunate for the 3 points 2day imo.



24 Nov 2019 15:19:25
Surely winning when we've played poorly is a good thing? We're not the first team to struggle against Hamilton on that pitch.



24 Nov 2019 15:53:37
Irvger I am not defending Tavernier per se but your idea of a wing back. A wing back will be caught out when they maraud up the wing and they or another team member lose the ball and is stranded upfield and the opposition break down that side. It is then up to the right midfield (for instance ryan jack) to cover that space.
There are people on here who critisice Tavernier when he leaves the wing and covers for Goldson/ Hellander in the middle of the 18 yard box.

The crosses from both Tavernier and Barisic were pathetic.



24 Nov 2019 18:27:09
Bluetoon, I don't know how many times people on here need to explain to folk that we don't play eith wing backs. Obviously we have a lot of possession so our full backs will get forward s lot but his first job is defending ๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 21:36:15
Bluetoon, I'm not anti Tavernier, but As Herewego55 said, his first job is to defend. I agree that the crossing of both full backs was terrible today, but hey, we won and that's all that matters.



24 Nov 2019 14:29:39
When Kent's second went in, I could actually hear the collective noise of thousands of Tim tellys switch off ๐Ÿ–ฅโžก๏ธ๐Ÿ”Œ๐Ÿ“ด.



24 Nov 2019 19:38:46
Could also just mean they having topped up their power card meter because their giro has not come through.



24 Nov 2019 14:10:11
We always play rubbish after internationals, but a good 3 points. our right back seriously needs looked at. Kamara played there more than Tav and most of their dangerous attacks came from Hamilton's left. We were very luck today. Feyenoord next. the dutchies. hopefully they don't pass from the left hand side๐Ÿ˜€.



24 Nov 2019 14:26:14
what do you expect with Tavernier, he is a wing back and he has probably been told to get up the wing. It is up to Jack, Kamara or even SG to cover for him it needs be. On another point which I have stated before when Defoe starts, what is the use of crossing balls into the mddle of the box? We do not have any height in there. The crosses coming in tday were to the far post or the corner flag.



24 Nov 2019 14:26:26
Rossco, have you considered that if our manager was unhappy with where our captain plays he would tell him?

Lots of books at your local library that will help explain tactics and formations๐Ÿ˜ƒ.



24 Nov 2019 14:44:05
DK19 too true.



24 Nov 2019 15:55:41
He's needing to tell him DK๐Ÿ˜ƒ, lost count how many times we got caught out down our right. Very fortunate, a better team would have punished us๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 15:58:10
I would sell Tav in January
He is a weak link in the team consistently.



24 Nov 2019 20:21:42
Did not see game today as on a course.

In reply to Rossvo3001.


Midfield 3 needs to be Davis, Jack plus one other. when we don't have those 2 playing we struggle.

In Euro games recently (although they are inter changeable) it's generally been Jack right hand side and Kamara on left hand side.

In my opinion, it's only been the (defensive) form of Barasic that has stopped us shipping loads of goals that side. as Kamara is rubbish defensively (and over rated) . still plays what I call "jogging football"

Similarly Ryan Jack has covered in behind Tav in these games and we look so much more secure on that side.

You then need your front 3, especially the wide ones to work hard tracking back, when required.



24 Nov 2019 20:42:36
Kamara is easily the other CM๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 14:09:18
Ugh! What a horrible game to watch. Didn't seem like anyone was up for it. Skill won out but we played into Hamilton's game. Great finishes by Kent and Jack on the few chances that we did create.



24 Nov 2019 14:29:55
A disappointing performance but we did win. We're not the first team to struggle against Hamilton on that pitch. What a strike from Kent!



24 Nov 2019 13:55:41
Our defence look as if they've just met for the first time! shocking display can see us dropping points here if we're not careful.



24 Nov 2019 13:11:53
hi

Ryan Kent great goal

Ryan jack best player on the park.



24 Nov 2019 13:58:33
I donโ€™t know who is worse, Tav or Goldson? Both are defensively shocking!



24 Nov 2019 14:41:31
The 2 cb were awful. Tav wasnt much better. Big 3 points and on we go x.



24 Nov 2019 15:14:37
Goldson and Tav both very lucky to still find themselves starting week in week out. Spent 10 million on that defence and still look very shakey.



25 Nov 2019 09:15:03
Have been for weeks. That Tav and Goldson need dropped. ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บโšฝ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘.



25 Nov 2019 09:46:22
Have been saying for weeks. That Tav and Goldson need dropped ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บโšฝ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 13:04:02
Still no sign of coop? C'mon coop get yourself back on the forum mate๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 12:58:03
You can see how much Gerrard has been mentoring Ryan Jack, he's a completely different midfielder now. He was very good before now he is even better, he completely changes the way we play.



24 Nov 2019 14:54:46
Kylel1872, spot on mate, our most effective player along with Alfie this season. Ryan Kent is beginning to show why we paid the money we did, he's a game changer, him and jack could have had 5 between them in the first half today.



24 Nov 2019 12:44:37
Shocking defending. Why are we always the same after an international break?



24 Nov 2019 13:01:47
Goldson and helander have been shocking first half. ๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 13:38:21
Not much better this half either. ๐Ÿ‘.



24 Nov 2019 14:02:38
And Tavernier Coldo he has been ๐Ÿ’ฉ.



24 Nov 2019 14:31:48
Poor today but a win is a win.



24 Nov 2019 14:38:51
We should be attacking like lightning to get the goal difference up but usual playing like a bounce game.



24 Nov 2019 11:18:35
Morelos and Davies being rested, however, both on the bench.



24 Nov 2019 12:03:16
Not a bad pair of subs, eh?
