Onewalter why would we take Alan Burrows hr hates Rangers he was front and centre to help celik get the 3 games cancelled during wee Nippys 2nd lockdown was convient as we were 6 points clear. I would have Burrows nowhere near the job.

One bit of good news Djiga will probably be going to African nation cup. so that rules him out for a few games.
28 Nov 2025 16:10:26
As a boot cleaner?
28 Nov 2025 16:13:51
Not if they have been watching our games he won't, guy is an absolute bomb scare.
28 Nov 2025 16:55:47
Hopefully jasp. Many on here don't want to Nsiala to get a chance but willing to sit and watch that sad excuse for a defender blunder his way through every game he plays. Nobody is saying Nsiala is a saviour or that he's got better in his absence, but surely to God he's got to be better than that dud! For those calling for tav to be given a new deal must be on something, his first 6 passes last night he passed it to the opposition 5 times, there was also a point that there winger squared him up on the wing and his body positioning was amateurish, the boy went down the line and tav trying to turn to catch him was absolutely laughable, seen milk turn faster.
i'm not just blaming tav the whole team are just awful. I've saw a couple of posts saying Chermiti played well 🤯 i honestly don't know what people are watching, even if he did play well, he actually didn't, as he's here to score goals, what ls his ratio? Something like 1-15 🙈 we are bang in trouble, whole new rebuild needed unless someone can tell me who is good enough as imo nobody is, which is a frightening thought.
GOD HELP US!
28 Nov 2025 17:12:42
can't disagree with any of that ^. Djiga cost us last night - not just the money we get for a win but pride. Just another Thelwell disaster that will haunt us as long as he is on loan. Much the same for Chermiti as we can't just snap a finger and he's gone.
28 Nov 2025 17:18:56
Keep saying it Boy the fans don't pick the team.
28 Nov 2025 18:14:10
BB that's the things i notice the most every week with him. Others see a great cross or ball over the top to create a goal but there's 10 crosses that go haywire before that. The pens don't fool me either. I want defenders to defend that's the way i think and our back 4 are absolutely honking.
28 Nov 2025 19:15:13
Boy Blue, I thought Chermiti had a good first half, clearly we see different things mate.
28 Nov 2025 20:23:21
Get doon tae spec savers.
28 Nov 2025 20:30:56
thought Chermiti had a good first half, went completely missing second half.
28 Nov 2025 20:33:15
Shota maybe looking for different things, Chermiti won every header he went for in the opening half, brought others into play in a few periods in that half, he will never be an instant finisher but has so many positives in his game, again clearly I'm seeing different player from you and Boy Blue.
28 Nov 2025 20:42:04
Chermiti needs to play with a finisher.
28 Nov 2025 20:53:48
Surely £8 m gets you more than being able to win a few headers and pass to a teammate on occasion. Seems like a decent guy and the fee is not his fault, but never good enough. As Alan Hutton said, desserts missed chances and took some but importantly he was in position to do so, this young fella is not.
28 Nov 2025 21:07:38
He will never make it at Rangers that young boy and couldn't one of our worst signings ever along with Rothwell.
28 Nov 2025 21:11:08
Weneed, Chermiti has far more ability than that, good at talking the ball, and quick feet for a big chap, very good control of the ball, played a few cute balls, but he's never going be a striker like Ally or even Shankland, why he needs a finisher alongside him.
28 Nov 2025 22:06:18
Don't see a good forward or a goalscorer in him.
Thelwell went all out with this signing to prove he was right in taking him to Everton in the first place, that's what I think it was down to Thelwells ego.
Why else would you bring an unproven player and not a goalscorer in for that type of fee.
29 Nov 2025 00:15:23
Rosevale, Purdy wanted him for both they clubs but you can blame Thelwell if you wish, that's only my opinion on him anyway, remember he's only 21 year old.
29 Nov 2025 00:23:08
How many shots at goal did he have mystar?
Did he get any assists?
Sis he set up any clear cut chances for others?
Sorry but peoples standards for a Rangers striker is dropping and dropping lower and lower wvery season.
29 Nov 2025 00:44:58
And Thelwell sanctioned it my star. as he was Sporting Director or whatever his title was.
It's a terrible signing and we will take a huge loss on this guy.
That's my opinion.
29 Nov 2025 01:05:51
You being serious forever? We scored one from a penalty as you know but the blame lies at Chermiti door.
29 Nov 2025 02:30:36
It's very clear you are seeing a different player from me. We've been here many times tbh mystar dio, Rothwell the boy from Norwich etc (sorry dado_prso)
29 Nov 2025 07:43:59
Boy blue it's fine if you seeing nothing in Chermiti but I do, so Rothwell can't play because you never done it at Rangers, get real mate, if you see nothing in Diomande that's also fine, but again i do.

28 Nov 2025 13:58:24
Fernandez don't look like a problem last night thought he was decent same against Livingston, his problem is Djiga.
28 Nov 2025 14:04:34
I think it's great everyone is getting involved in Articles, it makes for great reading and encourages debate and discussion.
28 Nov 2025 14:09:10
# Didn't.
28 Nov 2025 15:02:49
Yes mystar thought he did alright he has everything in his favour to be a commanding CB. Concentration is something he can improve on along with quick passing but I liked the way he was throwing his weight around shouldn't get bullied much.
28 Nov 2025 16:14:20
Thought this was a gers only page Ed. If not why not?
{Ed001's Note - because people want to talk about other things.}
28 Nov 2025 16:34:05
Being decent shouldn't be anywhere near as Rangers team we need better all over and I wonder what's going in at youth level when we can't rear a young guy to do better than Djiga ir Fernandez.
28 Nov 2025 16:35:26
Big Fernandez is raw but most definitely could be the makings of a really good centre half in him 🤔 He's still young and can keep improving into a good centre half 🤔.
28 Nov 2025 17:14:52
I meant gers fans Ed.
{Ed001's Note - again because they want to talk about other things. If you mean is this an apartheid state and only Rangers fans allowed, then no.}
28 Nov 2025 19:35:45
Good article MPH
I've always been of the mindset the majority of players brought in once I watched them play a few games were not up to standard
Recruitment needs addressed.
28 Nov 2025 19:53:46
Is Fernandez not 25 years old and actually older than Djiga, hardly young.
28 Nov 2025 20:28:12
Fernandez is 24 years old wsl and i've seen it many times with centre halfs that they can take time in their early 20's to reach their full potential when they hit their peak years of 28 years old 🤔Fernandez still raw and relatively young at 24 years old mate 🤔.
28 Nov 2025 20:33:57
Ows after a couple of games we're talking about.
28 Nov 2025 20:53:23
Very common for cb's getting better with more experience sws.
29 Nov 2025 00:08:37
Mmmm all players get better with experience. If we are buying players at 24 with the view in 4 years they hit their peak, we are done. Get a grip. He's been playing the game for years, Honestly. 🤷🏼 heard 60 is the new 50. 😂.
29 Nov 2025 00:37:38
Windy I'm talking many cb's get far better later in the game, that is a simple fact with many.
29 Nov 2025 00:44:54
Djiga needs to return to wolves i'd go with others we have before him i'd even go a bushiri or another spl defender before him shows how poor he is.
29 Nov 2025 10:16:09
Star. I get that as defenders get older and more experienced they can read the game better, thus making up for lack of pace. Big Leon and David Weir etc. However we have lost so many young players who were "never going to make it". The lad is 24 and I would expect him to handle the SPL.

Thestigno1 has written an article entitled, Glasgow Rangers' Struggles Highlight Growing Concerns
28 Nov 2025 20:04:51
It's so bad I don't even know how you manage to start with these articles. I commented a few weeks ago that I genuinely don't like any of our Rangers players. I have always had my favourites and some random ones that everyone else hates, like Jefte who had his faults but I really liked.
There is not one functional part of our team, maybe goalie but I don't really trust JB to not go through a bad spell. Danny Rohl has his work cut out and we maybe lucky and get 1 or 2 good ones in January but it's not going to fix the lack of quality in just about every position.
We look like a minimum 2 year project right now.
In saying that I am actually not writing the league off, but it's less about us than about Celtic being in a mess almost as bad as ours.

28 Nov 2025 12:54:40
Mate I submitted a post earlier highlighting a lot of what your saying especially with regards to Barron
This is not the first time I've had to Check the name on the post with yourself SS 🤣.
{Ed033's Note - Your article is now posted.
28 Nov 2025 14:01:37
Thanks and appreciated Ed 😊.
28 Nov 2025 14:02:30
Barron is a better player than he gets credit for, he's not the best technical footballer but a decent range of passing and plenty dig about him, something a midfield needs in my opinion.
28 Nov 2025 16:37:13
I agree with you wholeheartedly My star 👍I like Barron and you're spot on, every team needs a player in midfield like him 👍🇬🇧.
28 Nov 2025 19:03:03
Not sure I agree folks, I agree with the sentiment but our woes started when we repalced the likes of Jack, Lunny, Davis, Arf, Kamara with players like Barron, he is no more than a squad player. He is tidy and hard working but is not a goal scorer or a defensive wall. In a Rangers midfield you need to hang your hat somewehre and unfortuntaly for Barron he is in nomans land.
Perhaps the prob is we have Dio, Raskin and Barron, all too similar in that they don't create, score or defend 100% on a consitent basis. All opinions though folks so just my take on it.
28 Nov 2025 19:59:09
For me, if this was S. Gs team, Barron would be playing the Jack role in the midfield. He has good energy, gets about the midfield and showed again last night that he has good passing range. He needs to add goals to his game but it took Jack 2 years to get his first Rangers goal.
He was Aberdeens free kick taker which is something he never gets a chance to do and I wonder if he might be someone who could take corners, after all his height is not exactly an asset in the box.
28 Nov 2025 20:04:19
Wslgers Barron took corners a good few times under Martin.
28 Nov 2025 21:26:51
I also agree with mystar Barron is someone we should hold onto.
29 Nov 2025 07:32:33
Have to say over the last couple of seasons you have seen an improvement in the technical side of his game and he does the ugly part of the game really well which we need as too many of the squad neglect this side of the game.
28 Nov 2025 12:39:15
Realistically how many signings are we actually going to be able to pull off come January.
We need so many but just can't see it happening to the scale we all hope for.
we didn't really spend much more than we sold last summer, the magic money tree didn't actually materialise.
do we need to look again at reinforcements that were probably identified but now Thelwell out on his arse, is there enough time.
will the owners dig deep to try and salvage something, do we need to sell Raskin to boost the coffers, got a wee sneaky feeling we will.
is it actually feasible to send more than half the loan players back even though they are dugmeat.
I realise we are all looking at January as some sort of answer to our problems but sense disappointing times to be had.
Not trying to be negative but just totally scunnered.
28 Nov 2025 12:58:01
The magic money tree was squandered and thank fk both of the guys who looked after the tree are gone. Good riddance to both of them.
28 Nov 2025 13:53:15
We needed the big rebuild last time round when our new owners first arrived. hasn't gone well (trying to be nice here! )
Why should we expect the NEXT annual rebuild to be any better and stupid me. where is the money coming from because 20 mill won't do it?
28 Nov 2025 13:57:48
I will predict 3 in and a few out. CB, CM ST. Possibly an experienced LB as cover.
28 Nov 2025 13:58:50
apart from anything we need rid of some before we get any more in or we will have a squad of 50.
28 Nov 2025 15:12:53
But the big question is who can we get out, not on loan as that is short term (but if only option then so be it) but can we find clubs that want them.
Djiga what did Therwell see in him, total liability, send back
Diomonde maybe some value, but not up to it
Rice has not kicked on, plus Rohl obviously does not rate him.
Rothwell not in plans
Motondo may want to go, in hope Wales make WC
Chermiti will be hard to find club wanting him
Diniolo for whatever reason not suited to scottish football
Antman same reason as Dinilo
In truth I would get rid of any of them if we got suitable offers
See Tav coming out with usual we can learn from last night, my God he's been here 10 years and still makes same mistakes, not the only one.
28 Nov 2025 15:33:03
Jasp, it was Djiga's fault for the goal and not Tav.
28 Nov 2025 16:11:37
Well we don't have any decent strikers and defence honking also.
28 Nov 2025 16:40:09
Is rice not injured and going to be out of contract, don't think we will see him again.
My worry is what if we can't get rid of any of them in January, does that mean no players in, because it was one in, one out in the summer.
Will we send back the loan players and only replace them. That won't change much to be honest.
28 Nov 2025 21:29:17
We should never be looking to buy a backup
Everyone we sign should be with aim to be first choice.
If we are just looking for backups we should be exploring our youth squad in hope someone makes the step up.
28 Nov 2025 11:42:41
Team against Falkirk.
Butland
Tavernier
Fernandez
Nsiala
Meghoma
Barron
Raskin
Diomande
Gassama
Bajrami
Danilo
Falkirk will not be an easy game as their flying high right now, but massive difference from them and Livingston, Falkirk will come out and play the game, three points is a must.
28 Nov 2025 12:43:55
I could understand your team until you got to Danilo, he has been terrible, just as bad as the other two only without the excuse of settling in to the club. He does very little in the build up and even when he gets a chance he rarely hits the ball properly.
The options are limited but he's had two starts in a row and done nothing so it has to be Miovskis turn.
I think Falkirk might come to play so there could be a bit of space to run into.
If not him play young Curtis at centre fowrard he couldn't be any worse and at least he would be gaining experience.
28 Nov 2025 13:20:01
that team is fine Star. as long as Chermiti and Djiga are nowhere to be seen i'm fine.
28 Nov 2025 13:27:56
Diomande would sit out for me.
28 Nov 2025 13:55:31
Keep saying, I don't know what everyone sees in Danilo, apart from a journeyman pro, doing his bit to fill up his pension pot. he is posted missing most games, which is not what we need just now.
28 Nov 2025 14:04:56
Danilo is good at linking up Wslgers, scored the same as Miovski and Chermiti.
28 Nov 2025 14:09:48
would swap Gassama for Curtis, Cameron for Diomande and Miovski for Danilo.
28 Nov 2025 14:34:28
Maybe Cameron for Raskin biggles.
28 Nov 2025 15:02:17
Danilo, Chermiti, Diomande, Asrons, Matondo, Dowell, Djiga, Miovski to start with - none of them good enough.
28 Nov 2025 16:38:50
Really like the look of your team My star 👍🇬🇧.
28 Nov 2025 18:04:48
Agree re Danilo, he's been terrible. A bad signing. I had high hopes for that guy,
I would go:
Butland
Tav
Fernandez
Nisala
Meghoma
Cameron
Barron
Raskin
Gassama
Miovski
Curtis.
28 Nov 2025 20:08:17
My Star, Danilo is not good at linking up as proven by the fact that we don't have any link up play. The fact that he has scored the same amount as the other two doesn't exactly shoot down my argument as they are both crap too. He's such a poor centre forward that Rohl won't play him there. Its time all this we like Dani stuff stops, he has done nothing for Rangers since he signed, under 4 different managers, and although we know he has had bad injuries, he has never recovered any form since and won't do so now.
He is every bit as poor as the other two and the £6 million we paid for him was scandalous.
28 Nov 2025 09:47:09
Again we have taken so called talent from England and again we see they just can't cut it. Djiga Aarons and Chermiti particularly. And we see wee pocket dynamo giving his all. Rohl has a big job on his hands and he knows it. He needs players obviously but whose going to pay for Chermiti. I think the boy will score but he's no striker.
Big Fernandez has potential and will probably score more than Chermiti.
Shambles. And don't get me started on Miovski. Balogan and Shankland would have been better and 8m saved. Thank god we got a soft penalty last night as we struggled against 10 men. And where has Raskin gone? Flatters to decieve. Best thing getting player sent off by feinging injury. I'm really disappointed this morning.
28 Nov 2025 10:50:07
Fair points Colonel👍.
28 Nov 2025 11:04:16
Cheers Forky.
28 Nov 2025 11:07:28
Diomonde is another one who can go.
28 Nov 2025 11:17:38
As Rohl said in his press conferences, he needs to focus on developing the players we have.
I do sympathise with him as he doesn't have a full coaching team in place and he probably gets the equivalent of one full day of preseason training time on the grass each week.
I didn't see the game at the weekend or last night, but looking at the line up it looked like he was trying to protect the centre backs - at the expense of weakening an already under performing attack.
28 Nov 2025 11:37:52
Can you explain what you mean by "at the expense of weakening an already under performing attack", EHL?
We started with Danilo, the plank of wood from Everton, Gassama, and Diomonde, which if my arithmetic is correct, adds up to over 20m in attacking talent (If we can use that word 🤣) starting last night.
Sorry mate, but what you posted there doesn't make sense.
28 Nov 2025 11:58:57
Shankland should have been signed.
28 Nov 2025 12:00:39
It's obvious the recruitment was poor and lazy. My point for a while has been that you will not be able to coach ability into some of these players. They are from an over paid, over hyped league system that can afford to pay large salaries and accept failure.
Loans should be used to booster our bench, not our starting 11 and not as our main recruitment strategy. Sorry but the take over installed individuals who were so far out of their depth based on having experience in the over hyped league system. I have nothing but respect for Danny, who has taken a gig that is toxic and a cluster not of his making whilst after a short period of time must know that 1/3 of his squad is mince.
4 wins and a draw in Europe is a continuous upward curve so its progress. As for Connor Barron. His biggest asset is his engine. He should be used to protect the back four, breaking up play and giving it to so called more skillful players. Cameron I thought was bought for a box to box player. 🤷🏼.
28 Nov 2025 12:09:44
English lower leagues might be more competitive than our league but the standard of player from the English Championship and below are nowhere near good enough for a club like Rangers. Hopefully we have learned from this. We heard the same about the USA league, again the quality of player not good enough for Rangers.
28 Nov 2025 12:10:18
You say Shankland would be better but would he? Everyone thought Miovski would smash it but he, just like Shankland haven't played against low blocks or players throwing their bodies on the line to stop everything cause it's Rangers.
Raskin isn't the type of player everyone thinks he is, he's a disruptor, not Pirlo and he's only had a couple of months were he was brilliant and that's pushing it. Everyone praising Barron but he was one who wasn't that great last season, a lot of energy but constantly gave the ball away and had no ability on the ball. Players don't develop in a few weeks, its takes months to years.
28 Nov 2025 12:51:09
There is no point continually saying who should have been signed, we all know what should have been done but wasn't and the three guys responsible have all gone now.
We can't go back but the big question is how do we go forward with this squad. Its going to be difficult because if Djiga and Chermiti aren't on Danny Rohls RED list I would be surprised yet he is forced to play them because there is nobody else.
These are desperate times because you could add at least another six who are nowhere near good enough to play for us.
28 Nov 2025 13:34:27
Ranger, I don't believe Barron to be anymore than a disruptor. Agree on Raskin but problem is Dio isn't that great a creating.
28 Nov 2025 14:03:13
I would be shifting Chermiti to a CB or AM. He clearly does not score goals but has height and power. Was fellaini of Belgium not a striker converted to a CB / CM. Due to lack of goals. Most likely talking mince but just looking for somewhere he could be used.
28 Nov 2025 08:29:09
I thought we started well, fast closing down, but when we got the ball we went back to Martin's slow slow pace, must be a dream to defend against. After 30 minutes at home, not one shot or chance created.
Nobody in the team seems to want the ball, or has any ideas what to do with it. Rohl certainly has his work cut out, I hope he gets lots of assistance in January.
28 Nov 2025 12:57:27
I thought Rohl showed pragmatism last night by keeping it tight from the start and building into the game rather than going a goal behind early and having to chase the game.
The problem is we have nothing up front apart from Gassama so we have no goal threat, that's why we had no shots and then when we did create one Danilo fluffed it.
This team just looks like one that will win 1-0 at best but unfortunately the defenders are so poor we need strikers to score enough to win 3-2.
