Aye just go with a 5 5 formation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranga82 Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 11 minutes ago, Pete Elliott said: Clark Atkinson Kent Rowles Kingsley Haring Neuwenhof Oda Shankland Lowry Tagawa Really like this, although I like Devlin in the team Haring deserves his spot so far. I'd also consider both Kingsley and Cochrane at some point in the game. Cochrane getting to the by line and whipping in crosses for Shankland and Tagawa is something we should look to use this season. Shankland is great I'm the air and Tagawa is a good size also. Tbf tho, I'm not sure where Killie's defensive strengths lie but Rangers struggled to play through them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and me both. I said earlier in the thread he should be nowhere near the first XI. My worry is he gets the nod because he apparently works hard and helps his defenders. That's great in games when we will be put under a lot of pressure. Except it's ****ing Kilmarnock at home and they'll be set up defensively and be very hard to break down. Meaning Forrest is not what we need today. (Now watch him bag a hatrick) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Camny but he's not been at the races so perhaps starting him on the bench along with Beni. A good game to start Denholm too. Devlin needs to stop giving away soft free kicks and picking up stupid yellow cards. If I remember correctly the Rosenberg first goal started with a foul and booking by Devlin after he dived in for a nothing ball well inside the Rosenberg half.

Skacelsid Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 We need to get the ball forward quicker. We've brought in players with pace they need to be let loose. On Thursday it was like we were inviting the press, passing the ball about defenders and going nowhere giving opponents time to get their defensive shape. All very Neilson/Leveinesque. It was obviously to instruction, I do not care who does this successfully, we are not them. No threat no win. We need to get the best out of the players we have.

Completely agree, slow build up play does nothing but allow the opposition to set up their 2 banks of 4/5. Centre backs need to try and distribute the ball better. Kent I'm not so bothered about because his defensive work is fantastic, but would really like to see Rowles start switching the ball, looking for long crosses which can take a few of the opposition out of the game. Sibbick has shown he can do that, so Rowles should be looking to do it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweaked hamstring. Not convinced about the injury the only thing that was hurt was his pride. I really think that we have handled his re introduction back into the team badly. Boyce who seems much fitter has been used sparingly so far and we throw Beni into a competative European game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky jamboa Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Looking forward to seeing more of Tagawa, and Vargas, but wouldn't probably start with either as need to break them in gently and get them up to speed with Scottish football.

He is always the same with his stupid antics so can't see him changing now. Not seen the game back yet but that foul he gave away for the first Rosenborg goal was just stupidity. From what I remember after that he also pulled a shirt needlessly and should have actually been given a second yellow. When it was time for him to be subbed aswell I was watching him and he was in the middle of the park and deliberately walked to the far side of the pitch so that when his number went up he could walk round past us in the away end where he was lapping up the attention. Can be a decent player but needs to cut out all the stupid antics of playing up to the crowd and giving away stupid fouls resulting in him ending up carded. Fed up seeing him passing balls back all the time and standing hiding beside opposition players when he should be making himself an option. Something Beni was also visibly frustrated with at the game on Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
