Not posted in a long time but here goes, for weeks Gerrard has been playing guys totally out of form and its classed as favourites in my eyes, goldson is only ever a few games away from a terrible mistake but never gets dropped, kamera, Aribo and kent have been dire for weeks but took until we are out the title race to start dropping them.
Also the winter break is meant for a rest not double training sessions in Dubai, the only people that get a break was the management team, make no mistakes most of this dip in form is the managers fault.

Short memories and very fickle. And please spare me the Greg Docherty nonsense because he scored a screamer on Saturday, what difference would he make to us because he still certainly isn’t a better option than anything we have. The nacho novo brigade are out in full force again I see.

Cant really see that when the wee mans not really had a chance. At least he's got a bit of drive about him and get into the opposition box, apart from arfield none of our midfielders do that regularly, they all play too close to the back 4 at times. Think he was very unlucky not to get a chance.

Herewego55 watched under21 against caley thistle they played exactly same way as senior team so must be management instructions that are problem. Playing a back four and two defensive midfielders plus play our best attacking midfielder on wing is ridiculous 😡😡😡😡😡.

6 counties, i will say to you as I've said to others the system is not the problem, as its no problem at liverpool, its the squad that's not good enough, if the whole liverpool team came up to play for rangers do you think they would lose the league?

Greg Docherty deserves his chance. Exactly the type of midfielder we need, industrial, hard working, box to box, and scores a goal or two. Still young and will only get better. People forget the likes of Davis isn’t going to be around forever so we need young players coming through for the bigger picture.
Greg Stewart also deserves his chance, never put a foot wrong when been called on but can’t get his chance.

Docherty had 11 appearances for the Gers and failed to make a significant contribution or score any goals.
17 Feb 2020 18:01:39
Docherty season 17/ 18 - 13 games. 0 goals, 2 assists. Hardly set the heather alight. While i believe he is a good player (Gerrard admitted this also), he is not getting infront of Aribo, Jack, Davis or Arfield.
Baffles me that when the team have hit the skids people start clutching at straws and thinking Docherty or Murphy would have single-handedly pulled us out this slump. That's not how football works.
17 Feb 2020 19:06:35
When Murphy was on loan to us, he had plenty assists, started of well after signing then the injury happened.
17 Feb 2020 19:29:51
Nobody's saying it is, but fo you not agree that Jamie Murphy is a better player than Barker or ojo eho got plenty of chances? Or some games docherty would fit the system better than aribo,? Sribo is s good player but in the harder games he's a luxury we csnt afford if were struggling for form.

Pack it in mate. Kamara hasn't been a regular starter for weeks. Goldson is used as a scapegoat and has been our most consistent player since coming back. Why does katic always seem to avoid criticism when he is always 40 yards up field chasing lost balls, being bullied by strikers meaning goldson has to recover for him?
17 Feb 2020 21:50:14
All the Docherty naysayers with the stats from 17-18 season are missing one major stat. The team was rank. Russell Martin, Cardoso, Herrera, Holt, Halliday, Goss, etc. we haven’t seen him amongst the current squad so how anyone can say he’s not good enough is beyond me.
17 Feb 2020 22:14:21
Never seen Katic being bullied by anyone yet lol? His passes hv been shockin recently. But once he gets bk in form hel be solid again.
18 Feb 2020 05:58:11
I support all our players and give them total backing, but have to be honest as Tjrfc is correct imo also, regarding his post regarding connor goldson and nikola katic. I like big katic, but he can be very erratic at times and his positional sense is also a fault of his.
I've said this until i'm blue in the face that goldson is undoubtedly rangers best centre half, who does get made a scapegoat by some, quite a lot and others get off scot free! I'm not saying big goldson doesn't make mistakes, but he covers katic a lot as well as also covering worrall when he was here.
18 Feb 2020 10:37:26
Its not a case of Gerrard having favourites and not wanting to drop them, the problem is there is not enough quality in the playing squad to replace them, for example when Morelos, Jack and Tavernier were out recently we didn't have anyone to step in and do the job as well as them. simple.
18 Feb 2020 13:55:37
All we need is our players especially our top players to up their levels again and we will be fine. We aren’t a bad team all of a sudden. We were always going to drop points, probably 3 more than I thought we would’ve dropped by now after the break when looking at the fixtures but still so much to play for. Even the games we lost recently we still had good/ great chances to score more goals and on Sunday the game should’ve been over at half time. If we weren’t creating chances then I would worry but we are so it will come again for us.
18 Feb 2020 21:38:16
Golson most certainly has not been our mist consistant. Bombscare of a defender. Seen his make some crazy mistakes that have cost is. Some he's got away with.
18 Feb 2020 23:08:02
Rick witter, i agree completely mate, i also think once celtic drop points they will go on a wee bad spell, if so we just need to be ready, aye ready.
19 Feb 2020 00:45:51
DR1 dykes bullied him in the last game and cosgrove bullied him last week. Did he not lose it leaving McGregor to pull off a world class save? He's erratic and has to learn what to chase and when to be reserved.
19 Feb 2020 16:56:10
Defo didn't get bullied in any of those games hsha.
