chrystaf Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 10 minutes ago, Boy Daniel said: Some people saying we sat to deep in the first half !? That’s not true we were pressing them high up the field the difference was when they had the ball they kept it. Their passing was pretty good. We did really well at defending and Gordon was at his usual best to keep them out. Second half was a different story we actually took the game to them. We made very good game changing substitutions and most importantly never gave up. Agree, their passing was far sharper than ours and made it difficult to get the ball from them. That's what pushed us back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wonder sometimes if he really fits in our team if we’re playing a false 9. Not sure we wouldn’t do better with a more orthodox striker. Disnae matter just now but we lack options if he gets in a rut. False 9 / orthodox striker . Seems like a contradiction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting to think we need better for a top 3/4 team, hope I’m wrong. Happy with today though, 2nd half was night and day compared to 1st half. 1st half was a mixture of Rangers playing well and us being shite / negative. Delighted that it was a McGregor howler as well that gifted us the point after Kevin Thomson bumming him up as the “best ever bar none”. Think you’ll find he was playing at the other end, Kevin you prick. He sounded like he wanted a square go with Devin at one point too - “wish I had as many lives as him” at one point re his lack of yellow card. And how can a non Rangers man like Clive Tyldsley be so ****ing biased?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverwolf Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 RN always said that Gnando gives this team something different should they need to shake it up. He certainly made a difference today. Not just for what he does but for the problems he poses for defenders. if you watch the goal, McGreggor makes the error because he is trying to stop Gnando at the near post. That is because he considered him to be the threat….oooops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting on the ball deemed ungentlemanly conduct after that, strangely enough. But not on at least two earlier occasions when Johnston did the same thing including in an OF match. Some things never change in Scottish football. Anyway it was not as I said a Ford header from a direct cross from Murray but one from Jim Brown's cross after Murray had passed it down the line. Sandy Jardine was so incensed by Murray's action that he ran towards him and got out of position. I was careful to hide my scarf when leaving the ground. The natives were extremely restive!

132goals1958 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 At half time I had an air of resignation /reality check. We were never really at the races in the first half and fortunate to be only one goal adrift. The second half we were a different team and much more composed matching Sevco in every department. Really impressed in how we went about our business and if we had scored earlier I believe we would have had them on the rack. As others have alluded to maybe our opponents played their a + plus game in the first period but football being as it is my mood changed rapidly in a relatively short period based on that second half performance. We have just got to keep the momentum going -- no ifs buts or maybes . Don't wish to tempt providence but we now have the resources and are in a situation where I believe we are a team with scope to up our game further. If we can hang on in until the January window then the future is bright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watt-Zeefuik Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 i'm yet again waiting for the replay to post on Hearts TV but I was able to catch about 3' to 22' or something like that on my phone while the kids were at swim lessons. My thought early on was, "well, this will shut anyone up on JKB who's on about negative football." Devlin was tackling their midfield for fun, their midfield was frustrated, and we had some nice early moves that broke us into space but didn't quite come off. There was one moment where Rangers pressed Beni on the left side, and I was worried until I realized who had the ball, and sure enough he calmly reversed the ball out of trouble. By the time I had to turn it off Rangers were starting to push forward. One moment in particular seemed to unnerve us, when the CHs clearly needed Beni and Devlin and they weren't there. We switched the ball around the backfield and one of their forwards jumped the passing lane and started a move. Where we had been up in their faces most of the first 15 minutes, we suddenly started to drop off and Rangers really pushed forward. It seemed like a key moment. I can only assume from the stats and the comments that that persisted until the end of the half. I was able to check JKB and from the chat at the time I thought Souttar had been given a straight red and we were playing with 10 minute. Next I was able to check in it was FT and was delighted to see we'd grabbed a point. Looking forward to watching the replay. Thanks to whoever posted the highlights above -- wow do I love hearing Ibrox go quiet like that . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adso7 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I thought rangers played well first half and pushed us back. Have watched some of their euro games plus a couple league games and generally they've looked flat. However, I think we pressed them and made them work really hard to get on top in that period - this then resulted in them running out of gas at the end of the game. I thought we played pretty well throughout today. It is clearly not easy to go to Glasgow, take the game to them and dominate. Today was a pretty good game plan though that let us have a good go at the end and ultimately get the point. We did ride outy luck a little at times but I thought we were pretty composed in defense and smart in attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking , if this was a Euro tie I'd be pretty happy , Hearts had started really poorly but had weathered the storm and Rangers didn't look like maintaining their good start (and then the goal went in). I think the personnel changes were the difference because in the first half there just wasn't a proper balance or enough threat when we had possession. And I don't think Rangers are "that" good.

No Idle Talk Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 The game at Parkhead and today again at Ibrox we looked like a totally different team in the second half. I don't know what the explanation for that is but if we could play in both halves the way we have played in the second half of these matches then we would give both Celtic and Sevco serious cause for concern. The fact that we are capable of raising our level of performance like that during the course of a match is so encouraging though. It shows a strength of character in our team. That strength of character could take us a long way this season. This team has talent. If we can match mental strength and self belief to that ability then this could be a very exciting season.

Ked Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Last 30 minutes we were really good at times. Went wide but also through the channels. Some of interplay around the box was a bit rusty but you can see what we are trying to do. Halkett who I've been a bit wary about was solid and really chuffed for him.
