26 Dec 2020 18:42:44
Kent's last assist was against standard liege he's done nothing for weeks.

26 Dec 2020 19:04:10
He's not tracking back as much either think he needs a rest. We'll be unreal when everyone is on form at the same time. Aribo has come back looking brilliant I'd say.

26 Dec 2020 19:05:41
Wrong his last assist was last weekend v motherwell for roofe.

26 Dec 2020 19:25:05
It’s Alfie’s fault. Bad influence on Kent. Think it’s the only thing Fredo hasn’t been blamed for.

26 Dec 2020 19:27:13
I don’t think he’s done much for few months now don’t know what it is he’s unplayable when in the mood but he’s not (Kent) looked like that for a while now hope he’s saving it for Celtic game.

26 Dec 2020 19:30:44
Correct Paul.

26 Dec 2020 19:38:40
Spot on again paul👍.

26 Dec 2020 19:58:53
Coldo that all you have to say? You are quick enough to say fredo is playing bad but never hear you say anything about kent he has been rank rotten for weeks if not months.

26 Dec 2020 20:08:58
Ryan will come good guys✌️🇬🇧.

26 Dec 2020 20:15:57
I'll be totally honest guys. I hold my hands up, as being one of the posters on here who sticks by kent and rate him very highly! However i have to be honest and agree that he isn't currently performing to anywhere near his best and hasn't done for several weeks now 🤔Of course that doesn't make him a bad/ poor player, but he's playing below par! I trust gerrard will know how to bring him out his downturn in form and whether that means resting/ dropping him for a few games who knows 🤔.

26 Dec 2020 20:18:55
3 away games from our next 4 fixtures. Who makes up this stuff?

26 Dec 2020 20:25:03
Look guys we all know kent has been off the boil. We all know he has it in his locker tho which is the frustrating thing let's hope he picks up and continues his great form v the tims. But aye if your going to slag him make sure he never had an assist just last weekend 😂😂.

26 Dec 2020 20:31:17
I slate Morelos but also say when he’s playing good today he looked hungry when he came on which was really good and got himself in great position to score 92nd minute unlucky not too and really was rooting for him
I’ll salute him at times doesn’t mean I don’t like him if I was playing myself early years btw just for fun 5s 7s and 11s
You would give you r best mate hell if he played crap and vice versa btw
Nothing bad in it just want the side winning and everyone involved playi. To there absolute best for the jersey
When he came in today think Morelos looked up for it btw and that is when I’ll say great too see Alfredo
Kent not playing great or his decisions not great but the lad tries can’t fault his fighting mentality
Just maybe needs to have a word with in what he should be doing or what is expected In certain situations? What you think guys?

26 Dec 2020 20:31:28
We need to sign a wide/ false 10 player to either replace Kent or really push him. For me we should never have signed him for £7m he’s not been worth that money in Scottish football and if we can get £15m for him in summer from Leeds or whoever he should be off. There’s better value for money in France Belgium Germany Croatia Austria and so on. He will fill some clubs quota for homegrown players in epl and so we should cash in. I don’t overly rate him and never have. He’s better than Paddy roberts but reminds of that type
Of player. Over rated more
Cold than hot. Oberproced because he’s english. Love him support him but not for me. We need more consistency and better end product for £7m.

26 Dec 2020 20:34:09
Paul's post is spot on KJA9👍.

26 Dec 2020 21:06:20
Hes been playing terrible.

26 Dec 2020 21:31:03
Correct KJA9, was waiting on the obligatory Coldo post sucking up Kent’s backside. Yet he slates Alfie.
Alfie cost 1/ 7th of the price yet he gets slated 7 times more👍.

26 Dec 2020 21:37:27
Kent is class, has the right attitude. 👍.

26 Dec 2020 22:22:56
Hobs were pushing, until Alf came on.
I've criticised him this year, but fairs fair, when he came on he made them stop and have a think, which made the last 3 or 4 minutes bearable. He done more in 5 minutes than Kent did all game.
Let's hope that's a good sign for him.

26 Dec 2020 22:49:35
Coldo I never slagged off the last time he got an assist so it’s not spot on again you can’t bring yourself to say any bad word against the boy wonder he has been rank rotten let’s not beat about the bush.

I ain’t saying he is a bad player he just isn’t playing well at the moment maybe it’s because he doesn’t want to be here I don’t know maybe he thinks Scottish football is crap.

Only he knows.

27 Dec 2020 00:51:58
Over the course of a season everyone in the group will have a form dip of some kind. Coaching staff hope and pray that they are spread out over the season as a title winning team can’t carry too many passengers in a game. Kent will come good again, his early season form was frightening and he will reach those levels again. On the park and as a sell on he will be seen as a good bit of business at 7M.

27 Dec 2020 07:50:31
Guys of course its ok to say one of our players isn't playing to their usual standards and therefore needs to be dropped, as not one of our players should have a guaranteed place in our starting 11!On the flip side of that we should be backing all our players because we have a talented group of players that will have a drop in their form from time to time 🤔Players ain't robots! We all on here have our favourite players within our squad and i do myself, but i give every rangers player my total support/ backing 👍🇬🇧
Lets get behind every one of our players and back them to the hilt, in our quest for league title no.55👍🇬🇧.

27 Dec 2020 10:00:45
Totally agree coops. However saying 1 of our players isn’t playing to a high standard is completely different from a tirade of abuse on a daily basis. FACT.

27 Dec 2020 10:17:23
I wrote here, kent turned down new deal and wants back south, I was shot down but stand by my post.

27 Dec 2020 10:37:35
Just a point regarding borna barisic fellow bears! We all praise barisic and rightly so for how good an attacking full back he is, but the reason we got all 3 points against hibs today, was down to that superb block borna had on kevin nisbet's goal bound shot, which would have brought the equaliser for them🤔 What a block that was fellow bears 👌.

27 Dec 2020 11:30:42
Paul's post is spot on KJA9👍.

26 Dec 2020 17:51:12
Great 3 points today but once again kent utter pish and still gets away with it on here am sorry but at the moment he is not good enough and shouldn’t be in the team.

26 Dec 2020 18:06:30
Totally agree on this one since the two easy chances in Lisbon he gas been a shadow of his former self.

26 Dec 2020 18:42:17
I agree on Kent since first game of season he needs to improve dramatically on off ball movement meanwhile his main assets are one on one running comitting defenders that has disappeared but I do have faith that he's kinda player that will turn it right on . on auld firm day and destroy ping pong but aye needs to get finger out big time 😁.

26 Dec 2020 18:53:54
Kja9 got to agree pal. would say he's trying though just nothing coming off bit like Morelos who actually looks like he's trying again but still missing bread and butter chances.

26 Dec 2020 20:00:39
King Walter I would say he is trying but a lot of posters give it to fredo on here when he is trying but don’t say anything about the boy wonder and it makes me sick that some players can get off Scott free but it just shows you how fickled some fans are.

26 Dec 2020 20:45:00
Just passion for certain players KJ and some folk more passionate about a goal keeper or defender or midfielder or a wing back winger, attacker central attacker list goes on catch my drift mate
By the way fully appreciate your view and posts mate and take your comments on board fully as I do everyone
Think everyone well maybe just my opinion that everyone has a favoured position where you focus your attention more on that position like myself I love forwards and focus on that part of the game and that’s maybe why I focus so much attention on Morelos so Alfredo if you read this buddy not a word I’ve said bad against you is personal mate just entirely my own point of view you have scored arrow loads of goals and going through a dry patch
Hopefully that comes to an end soon mate hand on heart I do and a wee goal for you soon will do the world of good hopefully

I love watching forwards some will watch every player some will watch the complete midfielder and we all at times focus on certain individuals and blame them like myself not harm intended btw
It’s just what we with our own judgment and expectations etc look for

Love our team love our club and love everything that comes along with it dark bright and sunny days more sunny though haha

Come on guys love the rangers what a club what a team what a history and no matter what there will be a WHAT a future when I’m long gone there will be a future and I hope it’s more sunny and bright than dark

Guys love to you all and you families merry Christmas and have absolute safe and prosperous bright brilliant new year guys ❤️❤️❤️.

26 Dec 2020 22:09:49
I'm happy to leave it to our Manager, after all our performances this season so far, he knows more than any of us who should be in the team and who shouldn't, Kent take two defenders to watch him in every game.

26 Dec 2020 17:48:31
I think we can safely say that, after reading the boss's comments, both Arfield and Jack will miss the OF game. I think both would have been certain starters if fit. Any thoughts guys on what we should do for the St Mirren game given that we lost there recently in the cup? Do we go with our strongest line up every match regardless? Would Hagi be a starter?

26 Dec 2020 18:03:55
Winning against Celtic would be meaningless if we lose against St Mirren so we take one game at a time and put out a team to win.

See Kent taking a bashing on here again - if only Stevie G knew something about football eh?

26 Dec 2020 20:02:27
DK are we as fans not allowed to criticise players Fredo gets it enough on here while kent has been just as bad if not worse getting away with it.

26 Dec 2020 20:47:05
Morelos to start against St Mirren on Wednesday, big opportunity for him to stake claim for berth against Celtic. Hopefully he does well and learns from Hagi’s ability to convert. Goal today by young Hagi schooled by Defoe.

26 Dec 2020 22:13:57
We owe St Mirren one for that cup defeat, as someone said though at that time, we have to earn the right to the 3 points, no underestimating this time.

27 Dec 2020 11:12:16
KJ, yes critics allowed but in my book fans calling players an empty shirt are a disgrace.

When it comes to the same old fans who think they know better than our manager it is boring.

The various regular experts on here who want Alfie sold, don’t rate Kent or Hagi were the same type who would have given Tav a ride south last year when our manager stood by him because he had a wee bit more knowledge of the player.

I think Kent looks tired but assume that there is a good reason for playing him in every game so I won’t be outguessing our manager.

26 Dec 2020 16:02:11
Do we think that with Jones and edmundson In The provisional squad for tomorrow that any of them or both will make the match day squad? Let's work it out. Likely 11
Mcgregor
Tav goldson helander barasic
Davo kamara arfield
Aribo roofe n Kent
Likely subs
Mcglauglin,
Patterson, (edmundson? ), bassey,
Jack, zungu
Hagi Morelos Defoe.
Maybe fridge gets on the bench try get him game time if we're cruising game 2 or 3.
We're short at the back at times this season. Jones it's more difficult he needs to get in ahead of hagi who has just found form. Or maybe for zungu. I do think however that these 2 may get gametime over next few games to the manager decide where they're at mentally and physically coming upto the window. We could do with fridge and Jones as we're weak in departments if not they can go and be replaced.

26 Dec 2020 16:11:57
You do know that the game was earlier today in Gerrard?
🤣🤣.

26 Dec 2020 17:46:37
Happy New Year!

26 Dec 2020 17:47:58
What are you on about?

26 Dec 2020 19:48:06
Somebody's had a stinker 🤣🤣🤣.

26 Dec 2020 20:08:26
Has someone cracked open their new year bottle a little early? 🤣🤣🔴⚪🔵.

26 Dec 2020 14:55:48
Coldo, it has been said that you can't see past 4-4-2, how does the following look to you.
McGregor
Tavernier Goldson Balogun Barasic
Jack Davis Kamara Aribo
Roofe Morelos

Omitted Kent as he is going through a bad patch.
Arfield don't know how bad his injury is

I am not saying we go 4-4-2. What you think?

26 Dec 2020 16:06:50
I suggested two up top in either 442 352 in games where teams sit in. For example last week v motherwell all we did was fire crosses in to defoe. The game was crying out for big itten. I'm not saying go 2 up top all the time, it obviously depends on the circumstances. We went 442 2nd half v liege and it won us the game, completely nulified their 1st half dominance. Its more about a plan b when we come up against park the bus. In my opinion its pointless firing crosses into a lone ST when he is heavily outnumbered. 👍.

26 Dec 2020 16:07:21
No width in that team mate. Jacks not a right mid. Aribo out on the left wing would be lost. His quick feet and vision for killer pass or 1-2s or 1-2-3s outside box are his main attributes.

26 Dec 2020 17:24:38
Inger, my problem with that team is that there is no one apart from from Taverner and Barasic, Kent isn't doing the job, he always seems to want to cut in where the defence is waiting and I would not give the time of day to Barker or Jones.

26 Dec 2020 17:50:07
How many teams plays 442 these days? None as it’s in the past and that’s where it belongs.

26 Dec 2020 19:44:37
Bluetoon you omit keent because he's out of form, then you pick morelos instead, he's in worse form than anyone else at club. Bit of a contradiction eh.

26 Dec 2020 14:31:41
That's a huge result, not great for the nerves mind you lol. Digging in and holding onto a 1-0 win is champion material. Another win, another clean sheet 🔴⚪️🔵 👏🏻👏🏻.

26 Dec 2020 14:36:57
Absolutely Scotty123.

26 Dec 2020 14:37:29
Ano we just held on.

26 Dec 2020 14:39:46
Great 3 points, last season would have been a draw, win against st mirren then beat that crowd and we are flying, good show from their goalie today or would have been 3 or 4, still great 3 points, the bluebells are blue 🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍.

26 Dec 2020 14:50:50
Don't understand why they decided to stop pressing the ball and just sit back goal side for 15 minutes?

26 Dec 2020 14:51:51
Absolutely spot on Scotty. Let’s be honest they are no mugs. In Difficult conditions, another clean sheet and massive 3 points! League titles are built on days like this!

26 Dec 2020 14:55:48
Nerves? Dunno about yours but mine are in tatters.
I thought Hibs had a great game. Morelos showed his worth and took control back from them.

26 Dec 2020 14:56:42
That hibs team will beat celtic when they play again.

26 Dec 2020 16:14:52
Efriar, no they wont.

26 Dec 2020 16:37:29
No they won’t.

26 Dec 2020 18:28:07
Efriar, admire your optimism, but its starting to look like they're bad run is over.

26 Dec 2020 18:49:09
Doesn’t matter what they do. it’s all about us. We keep winning then we do 55. 🔴⚪️🔵.

26 Dec 2020 19:47:52
Efriar they only raise their game against us celtic always beat them 3or 4-0.

26 Dec 2020 14:27:22
Brilliant result but nerves showed today.

26 Dec 2020 14:25:42
Yeah definitely Broxi

When Morelos came on late he looked hungry which was good and was shouting for him to put that chance away on the 92nd he needed it and was gutted he never got it by the keeper

But 3 points on the board another hard thought victory and that's all that counts

Come on the Gers

Every win gets us closer to #55

Hibs played well and made a right game of it hats off to them too

Proud of the win today horrible conditions horrible weather etc
Well done Rangers absolutely buzzing after another win and 3 points in the board

Hope everyone has had a brilliant Christmas and bing a cracking Boxing Day 😊😊🥂.

26 Dec 2020 14:56:45
I’ve threw a tenner on Hamilton at 25s for a laugh stig, I know they are decimated but it’s happened before so why not, ,

26 Dec 2020 17:03:49
Correct stigno, countdown, every win a step closer.

26 Dec 2020 14:23:41
brilliant 3 points as hibs are no mugs BUT why kent was allowed to stay on baffles the mind-- Hibs are no mugs well done lads #55.

26 Dec 2020 14:59:22
Empty jersey for a long time now, personally I’ve never been convinced by him, I said a year ago I thought rangers would rue the day they spent so much on Kent and hagi, but it was just my opinion and hagi was good today.

26 Dec 2020 15:11:06
There is no quality competition for his position, pretty sure that will be a priority if funds are available . Barker, Jones and Middleton should be moved on.

26 Dec 2020 16:26:41
I’m sure rangers won. Excellent three points.

26 Dec 2020 16:40:41
That’ll mean no discussion then John?

26 Dec 2020 16:56:31
Best player according to sgl and some others. He was class 1st 6 weeks of season. very inconsistant tho. 1 good game in 5 or 6. A month ago i said he was an empty jersey for 4 or 5 games and got slagged for it. Another great 3 points and that's without our 'best most valuable player' not turning up for couple month now.

26 Dec 2020 17:06:09
Tom always up for discussion, still unbeaten folk on here still not happy, we r now counting down.

26 Dec 2020 18:00:04
Suspect Kent’s absence would be a bit similar To Alfie. You don’t see what he brings to the team until he isn’t there.
For me best we have in that position and when firing on all cylinders can turn a game around.
SG happy to start him so that’s good enough for me
Today’s game was a draw/ loss all over its back the last few years a good time to be a bluenose but the beginnings of something special could be happening in front of our eyes.

26 Dec 2020 13:09:13
Don't like saying I have a favourite player
But roofe coming in he's been absolute class what a cracking wee player he's been so far delighted by his play he's an absolute joy to watch.

26 Dec 2020 13:29:50
Banged on about him plenty before but glen kamara is different class, never wastes possession and for a snip at 50k. He’s going to be hard boots to fill when the bright lights of the epl come calling and will make us a packet too.

26 Dec 2020 15:29:51
Roofe, Kamara and Aribo were brilluant today.

26 Dec 2020 12:40:05
Kent needs to gey by pla6ers the day.

26 Dec 2020 13:09:01
Needs to find his target with a pass. Too many times in the early stages he’s been wasteful in possession.

26 Dec 2020 12:13:39
Alfie should b playing.

26 Dec 2020 11:19:18
Good team. Hope hagi up for a battle.

26 Dec 2020 11:41:36
We never seem to get 2good games in a row outy hagi hope i'm wrong today tho.

26 Dec 2020 15:05:42
Rep. ying to masel glad a was wrong ahaha.

26 Dec 2020 17:09:46
He played welll, good for him.

26 Dec 2020 11:12:51
Merry christmas everyone. today the score will be four one to us.

26 Dec 2020 09:40:10
Happy Boxing Day Lads usually my Xmas day when me and my family go to the pub and get smashed (not this year) have a gamble and lose some money.

Big game today and we can put down another marker by beating hibs and getting 3 points.
Whatever the team is let’s get behind them all am going for 2-0/ 3-0 but I do think it could be tight.

26 Dec 2020 09:49:17
Rangers 3-1 today and roofe first goalscorer 🤔I've got a pearl diver on it at 50/ 1 KJA9 👍.

26 Dec 2020 09:51:11
Should be a good game mate against a team that will try and play. The win is all that matters today.

Let’s go 🇬🇧🏆🇬🇧.

26 Dec 2020 10:05:59
Think it will suit Rangers if they do go for it Ibrox mate.

None o that Saint Mirren guff with our poor defending as well.

26 Dec 2020 11:43:25
Hagi to score first goal.

26 Dec 2020 17:10:58
Bankie I hope u bet him first goal.
