Personally I think that was about the strongest team we could have put out, and it wouldn't have mattered a lot who we played, we were always getting a doing. Nothing wrong with our team, they were better, end of chat. Our tactics on the other hand.................. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VivaObua Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 In europe Rangers usually play a 5-4-1 system and they are a better team than us...how we thought we could play more attacking is beyond me...was always going to leave to much space infront of the back 4.

Deodato Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Here's his quote: Hearts boss Paulo Sergio: "In the first half we played like someone buying a ticket to watch the match. We didn't press the ball and if you give spaces like that to Tottenham it makes it difficult. We improved in the second and we were more aggressive on the ball. There is a huge difference in quality between the two teams but we should have done better in the first half." First sentence - we played in a formation that was badly chosen, and got rinsed for it. Second sentence - given the formation, it is hard to press the ball. Third sentence - Spurs dropped deep, our tackles got harder (not necessarily better) Final sentence - we should of organized the team better. Point being, here's looking at you Paulo.

EreWeG0.. Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 The quality between the two sides were just so apparent. From the start, i really feared for a high scoreline when they scored in 4 mins and thought overall they deserved their win, any team that went out even a totally different eleven would have been questioned if beaten by that score. This was the equivalent of Spurs vs lower English side, who would just get on with it after the lesson and concentrated on their next match...Killie next, bet we have a bit more posession then.

JamboAberdeen Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I would have played Rudi and Eggert instead of Driver and Webster, which might have prevented 5th goal but still wouldn't be surprised see 4-0 defeat. Just damage limitation. The gulf in class was so huge, making any system talk/blame on single player just irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just damage limitation. The gulf in class was so huge, making any system talk/blame on single player just irrelevant. totally agree with you. Driver doesn't do it for me, rudi should have played from the start or even scott robinson. Obua's passing game was on a par with the spurs players he was that good. Webster is a tad slow, perhaps the manager really has to work on eggert to improve his skills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dode41 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I think tonight showed we need 2 quality passers in the team,one in defence and one in midfield. We had two wide men to use as 'outs' but couldn't get the ball to them enough. can't blame the manager for selection or tactics IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamydays Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 There were many reasons we got horsed tonight, and we should have been closer to them in the first half, but this wasn't tactical, Spurs were just completely buzzing and we stood off and watched.

CalMac Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 If you have a central midfield of players that primarily defend/tackle but they don't do that, you are in trouble. There was a genuine lack of belief, quality and ability on show from us tonight. Even at our very very best we'd probably have lost tonight. We were rather rank rotten & got outclassed by a far better team. Driver was woefully unfit & a passenger. Tough game for Webster to come back into and Zal was always likely to struggle against a quick & fluid attack. Maybe we genuinely thought that we could cope with Spurs in a footballing contest. If that's the case.....we'll, we were wrong but maybe at least the intent was there. However, it seemed that pretty soon the players realised that they were in big big trouble & we just got worse. We played a good side & got horsed. Not the first time, probably won't be the last. Important thing now is to regroup for the league games coming up & for PS to get some time to assess the squad & maybe wheel & deal a bit. Last night was a big disappointment but realistically not that surprising. Progress domestically is the most important step for this season not beating Spurs.
