Everyone going on about Derek mcCinnes being our new manager. We still have one PC. it's not his fault our team not doing well on the pitch, yeah he picks the team, but if not performing then it's not his fault.
If a new manager I would take that Aberdeen manager.
But much would it cost to sack PC and bring in a new one.
11 Nov 2024 23:02:33
It’s not entirely his fault, the players need to take some of the blame but equally so should he. I’m not hounding him out just yet but things have to get a lot better.
12 Nov 2024 00:37:11
Is he not the one choosing who plays and telling them what to do though? Playing players out of positions, making daft subs, and constantly playing players who are underperforming. The players have a big part to play but so does he.
12 Nov 2024 05:39:22
The thing is if we get rid of clement and bring in a British coach who is clear in his approach and keeps it simple allowing the players to go and express themselves instead of being stuck in a strongest formation that clearly doesn’t suit them or work, u would see a vast improvement in that team.
We’ve got the 2nd best group of players in the league on ability, just not in form.
That’s the managers fault.
12 Nov 2024 07:10:24
Agree about the formation needing to change Stevie, PC's 4231 just isn't doing it for me?.
12 Nov 2024 08:27:02
PC has to take most the blame.
He is not getting the best from these players and continues to play guys like Dessers and Tav.
What does that say to the other players in the squad.
PC wasnt a fan of Raskin and now look at Raskin, MOTM most games.
Sterling and Nana play well and get bench.
The formation and style/ tactics haven't worked but he keeps going with them.
Bored of it all now.
12 Nov 2024 08:37:47
I have got to disagree Fifa and say it is his fault. Yes the players need to play their part but it is his team, his tactics, his baffling substitutions, him who plays players out of their positions and him who constantly picks his favourites. It's his fault that i don't listen to any of his pressers either because i hate listening to boring repetitive mince. It's all his fault that he has assembled a team who don't score goals. It is all his fault every last little bit of it is on him. It's his fault i'm not best pleased either it's him him him. Or it could be something else but i think it's him.
12 Nov 2024 08:47:11
Same problems pc has is what le guen had.
Same formation aswell.
4231 doesn’t work unless u have superior fullbacks and top centre mids. Which we don’t.
Even at that it’s not an easy formation to make successful.
If teams crowd the mf u struggle to control possession, if teams play just 3 cm’s u will likely be out passed and by passed.
U won’t get the ball past they’re mf numbers to the luxury 10 to be of any use.
If u have lesser players then your on a hiding to nothing with that formation.
We should be 433 in Scotland maybe 4141 in Europe.
12 Nov 2024 09:01:24
Who does he play instead of Dessers?
12 Nov 2024 09:09:23
Always liked a 3412, with the one having free reign, attack and defensively, also allows sit n support of m/ f, cover for r/ m l/ m when the m/ f is supporting defence on either side. Just a few thoughts, for the 10 to work 433 would do Stevie. ?.
12 Nov 2024 10:00:25
Ally, you sum up most of the issues I see with PC and the fans.
You said he wasn't a fan of Raskin who is now one of our key players. That's incorrect, he is a huge fan of Raskin and held back his return in order to make sure he was fully over his injury issues and robust enough to play without recurring niggles.
You criticise the selection of Tav and Dessers, but he's only playing who's fit and available. Sterling and Kasanwirjo both have niggling issues and Danilo is still in rehab.
As for the formation, 4-2-3-1 isn't his preferred choice - but it's what the squad were playing when he took over and we don't have the available players to alter it.
Once we get natural width on the left we'll go back to a 4-3-3 - I say back as he's played that way a number of times, 4-3-3 that rotates to a 3-4-3 (was Lundstrum last year and Barron early this season that dropped between the centre halves) .
It's fair to criticise performances and results, but at least pay attention.
12 Nov 2024 10:09:00
Ally, Pc wasn't fan of Raskin? that is just more triple man, maybe with Raskin being mostly unfit in Clement time but he certainly rates him and said that in one of his first interviews, maybe you want Clement out but don't just be making things up that aren't nearly true.
12 Nov 2024 10:50:49
McInnes better not be anywhere near our club as a manager.
12 Nov 2024 11:46:32
How is being 9 points behind Aberdeen with a budget size that dwarves there’s not his fault? What is wrong with this fanbase? Why do we want to excuse mediocrity so much? Call it out. He’s doing a shocking job at the moment, there is 0 coaching in that team, the football we play is chronic, he keeps picking the same players who constantly let him down despite having younger and more equipped players on the bench. His subs are mind boggling. I could go on and on.
12 Nov 2024 12:35:50
Look guys - hopefully for the clubs sake PC will grind through this tough period - but let's be realistic and look at all the squad and be honest - who would get into Tics first 11 -not many at all!
Just look at the chaos which is happening above PC and the players - the club is in a shambolic state off the pitch and this MUST affect the management team and playing squad - we need stability from top to bottom but just don't know how that will happen when we keep haemorrhaging money left right and centre - The main team we REALLY need at present is a strong Senior Management who all pull in the same way and are focussed on the club - I am praying John Gilligan who is an intelligent man and will see our deficiencies at that level and be able to facilitate a fix in those broken areas - so IMO this cheaper squad will need all our support to get us through for a period - IMHO changing for McInnes will not help us one bit- The club must survive first then thrive as we move along this rocky path?.
12 Nov 2024 12:38:35
Triple even lol.
12 Nov 2024 12:43:28
Wishy Aberdeen have only dropped 2 points that is great form for Rangers and celtic after that amount of league games, but once they lose and drew a couple let's see how they go.
12 Nov 2024 13:05:31
He shoulders some of the blame for his system which up until Raskin re-emerged we didn`t have the players to play.
I look at Sundays team and apart from right back where Sterling or Kasanwirjo could have played there was nobody on the bench or in the squad who could argue that they deserved a place before those that started . If we had these players I`m pretty sure he would have made more changes from Thursday night. The only player being played out of position, maybe, was Bajrami but he has said himself that wide left was one of the positions he has played and there was alternative available .
There is no alternative fit centre forwards or wide players or left back or holding midfielders and we don`t have a decent attacking midfielder on the books never mind on the bench.
Blame the manager all you want but realise too just exactly where we currently are with this squad.
12 Nov 2024 13:40:57
Lol obviously tripe.
12 Nov 2024 14:02:05
Mystar admire How positive a guy you are mate, but the fact of the matter is the manager is a dud and we play some of the worst football I’ve seen in years of supporting rangers it’s just as bad as the football Beale had us playing.
12 Nov 2024 14:50:42
Wishy just know he needs more times and we are seeing it more in games now which way he's wanting play than we did previous.
12 Nov 2024 15:04:22
McInnes wouldn’t allow us to be beaten by average SPl teams . He would return Rangers into a team very hard to beat and one that could grind out results especially domestically. I don’t think he would work magic in Europe but he would build foundations in SPL and make us strong domestically. We would win or else push to very limit, every competition in Scotland . We would have a bit of pride . The only major problem with Mc Innes is he turned us down when we were stronger than now . Do Rangers give anyone a second chance to turn us down . Foreign managers don’t have pride or feel the hurt until it is too late .
12 Nov 2024 15:53:45
How did he want to play against hearts at the weekend? Cause that Was the hardest 90 mins of my life sitting in ibrox watching it. He’s sucked out every single bit of enjoyment watching rangers.
12 Nov 2024 17:16:05
Wishy imo clement has lost the majority of the fan base. I am not sure he can get that back, winning the league cup and new year game would be a start.
12 Nov 2024 17:58:16
You can see how he want to play b? We played good for 15 mins against hearts and that was it. Not many big chances Jesus Christ ? his football is horrendous to watch and won’t get much better. He needs to go.
12 Nov 2024 19:17:18
Only your opinion, can see the things our players are trying to do storm.
12 Nov 2024 20:20:25
yoursperx. com without performances in Europe we won`t have the money to buy the players to dominate domestically. It's a major source of income without which we would be in an even worse state than we are now .
12 Nov 2024 20:23:11
I agree John, only way he wins fanbase back is by winning cup final and winning at ibrox, I don’t see it however but I hope I’m wrong.
13 Nov 2024 10:38:31
How's pc not to blame lol. He picks the available players, sets the formation and tactics. Also its a years wages for sacking pc.
13 Nov 2024 13:36:08
Wsigner4ever . I don’t think I posted that we wouldn’t be in Europe . What I said was that I didn’t think Inness could work miracles in Europe. We could continue as usual in Europe without getting magical results. We are not competing in cut throat Champions League . Where we are suits us fine, until we develop ourselves domestically.
