With only 5 games to go until this wretched season ends i'd like BF to play as many of the younger guys as poss. I wouldn't be against guys like Munn Fernandez Rice Curtis playing and we need to see Cortes in remaining fixtures also Iga must get the next games as no9 we won't learn anything playing dessers finally danilo has to get a run of games.
20 Apr 2025 13:59:24
Think Fernandes picked up an injury mate, agree should be game time for Curtis, Rice, Nsio, Nsiala ows, would like seeing Hutton as well, also agree Igamane should be leading the line in the remaining fixtures, hopefully Cortes shows us what he's all about, he could be a player for us next season.
20 Apr 2025 14:14:11
Pointless playing players that won't be here next season. Give the youth a run out.
Onewalter, Danilo is a player that needs to go this summer.
20 Apr 2025 14:29:02
Can't argue with that OWS - just need to make sure there are a few experienced head in with them to help support them.
20 Apr 2025 14:31:32
He will want to get as many points as possible to keep hit hat in the ring.
If he wins all remaining games I still think he will be in with a chance. Maybe only 20% but you never know.
The new owners might have a preferred option but they could easily knock us back. So he needs to keep winning.
20 Apr 2025 14:32:52
OWS could not agree more. However think he will continue to play the "old guard" if for no other reason than to keep them in the shop window, which unfortunately will stunt the groath of the the young players. We will however have to play some of the older players to help the young lads.
20 Apr 2025 14:35:40
I don't think Cortes will make it at Rangers, he's shown nothing in the handful of games that he has played that would hint at him being a player for us next season. I also want to see more of our younger players. It would give us an indication of who could make next seasons squad.
20 Apr 2025 14:58:33
Cortes was a highly rated young player.
20 Apr 2025 15:14:46
Agreed OWS.
20 Apr 2025 15:27:03
Lots of players were highly rated when they were young. Its how they develop that will determine how they progress in their careers. In the last year and a half Cortes has not progressed or shown signs of progressing. Sadly he appears to be another failed Koppen signing.
20 Apr 2025 15:27:14
I'd like to se Hutton and mccallion make their debuts and rice and Curtis get a few games in a row.
20 Apr 2025 15:44:58
I was impressed with Rice and Nsiala against Athletic Club. Maybe a run of games is all they need.
20 Apr 2025 15:45:52
Coldo EHL says he progress well now I'm listening to him before you, in fact I'm listening to most before you, he has showed a few flashes about what he can do, again he could be a player next season.
20 Apr 2025 15:55:58
Agree about playing young players we can't continue playing the failures We also can't go into next season with Tav, Dessers, Propper, Barjami, I've no idea if Cortes is a player he's never fit he's been here 2 years and is becoming the new Roofe.
20 Apr 2025 16:01:16
He needs to start playing Igamane as the central striker to help his development.
20 Apr 2025 16:06:19
Zikos he has absolutely no chance of getting the job full time.
20 Apr 2025 16:09:55
Cortes will be here next season unless there's some clause in his deal so we should at least play him to see exactly what he can contribute i have my doubts but he should get some game time.
20 Apr 2025 16:30:14
Cortes injury record is worrying BT and you're right, we can't afford to have players constantly injured. Again, I have serious doubts about Cortes and can't see any signs of how he could be an important player for us. Time will tell.
20 Apr 2025 16:46:47
Only problem with Cortes is that BF doesn't play with wingers - so of he goes 3-5-2 or even 3-4-3 like Aberdeen it'll be tough for him.
20 Apr 2025 16:47:16
My starting team for last 5 games:
Kelly - to see if can be no.1
Tav - due to lack of rb options
Souttar
Nsiala - to develop and has something
Jefte
Rice - needs a run of games
Raskin
Diomande
Cortes - dud or not?
Igamane - play as main forward
Danilo - in behind igamane or on the wing.
20 Apr 2025 16:50:08
I pray there's a get out with cortes but going on decisions of this board i doubt it ?.
20 Apr 2025 16:52:26
Storm, you really don't know that unless you're telling us you have inside info, which i doubt.
You know i agreed with you that didn't think he was right choice but i can see why they did it as a temp.
But we have no idea what the intent of the Americans are until they actually take over.
20 Apr 2025 17:07:05
We still need 3 points to clinch 2nd place remember.
20 Apr 2025 17:11:41
Storm who do you think will get the Rangers manager's job mate ? I have a very strong feeling that marco rose will possibly get the job and i definitely think russell martin is in the running although not my choice ?.
20 Apr 2025 17:39:10
Storm, I beg to differ.
I am in no way a BF fan boy and even I would consider him in a FT position.
Personally (again not a fan boy), I would have SG as my number 1 pick. He had won this league before and took the reins in a very similar position and regardless what others think did a fantastic job.
If you look at what the leadership dept did at Leeds when they took over, they basically picked the guy with the best championship experience. Think they will prob do similar here.
Afterwards BF is probably on a par with continental options. The main reason being his knowledge of this league and in European competition.
Obviously this could be way off the mark, but I actually think it would be quite sensible, and if NK ups his game then it could work.
20 Apr 2025 17:42:58
I wish there was a get out clause forever but I fear the french mob have us stitched up good and proper.
20 Apr 2025 18:00:09
You know who I want coops as you have asked me many times and I have told you but it looks unlikely it will be him. As long as it's not BF or SG
Forever BF will not be the manager for us next season that's just what I am saying I don't even know why it's an issue with you?
I do know BF but not spoke to him in a long time.
