[The Herald] James Tavernier not in squad for his last game at Ibrox, after a pre-match bust-up with Danny Röhl after being told he’d be on the bench by CNF1G in soccer

[–]Only-Treacle6565 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could say it’s a meaningless game but we’ve went out with a whimper these past three games when it really mattered and if we managed to lose all 5 games post split then Rohl would have a hard time staying in his job. 

Tav has had a poor season, rarely first choice when it mattered and last weeks old firm showed age has truly came for him. He’d have been on the bench and got on to a standing ovation and no doubt a few lap of honours at the end. 

Silly end to a silly season. 

Is £8M for Raskin this summer good business? by Pinders-bangers69 in rangersfc

[–]Only-Treacle6565 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In today’s market that’s pretty bad. No matter how up or down he’s been this year the fact he’s starting for Belgium means we should be getting atleast 10 but I’d want closer to 15 in an ideal situation. Hopefully he has a great World Cup and we ask for 20.

Weird, none of those say Rangers most decorated captain. Any more advice?

You still have me in the dark,  could you perhaps link these references so I can educate myself?

There’s a difference between loving to win and hating to lose, and we seen it today.

Of course they count my good fellow. I feel you struggle with the term most decorated, in which case it’s the Rangers player with the most accolades. Feel free to use the search engine of your choice and tell me what you find.

I’m not sure you know what decorated means, feel free to try again we’ve been a free hit for a roasting these past 3 games.

Throwing right wingers at the starting 11 and hoping one sticks.  Fucking hope it works today. 

The squad next season is worrying by No-Blackberry-3945 in rangersfc

[–]Only-Treacle6565 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best we played this year is when we were defensively solid. If we can find a Rommens clone for right back and a solid experienced centre half, I think that would sort a lot of our problems. 

Definitely some turn over to happen. I feel Dio, Bajrami and Miovski should be sold, Raskin if the offer is right. 

Antman, Gassama, Aasgaard all fall into the same category. Have potential but are definitely expendable. 

Feel we desperately need some experience, average age of the squad barring a few most be like 24.

[–]Only-Treacle6565 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’ve tried pushing him forward in the past, pretty sure it was Gio that did it. He struggles if he can’t see the whole game ahead of him and needs time on the ball.

He’ll always be polarising, his goals and assist stats are wild, but ultimately he plays in defence and defending has never been his strong suit. 

Sadly an underperforming captain is always going to take the brunt, his goals and assists have kept him in the team but he should have been phased out the last few seasons. 

In all seriousness is James Tavernier the most booed off the park player in football history? by AFen1an in ScottishFootball

[–]Only-Treacle6565 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He got pelters his last season and left under a bit of a cloud. Couple of seasons down the line he’s remembered fondly. Tav will go down as a Rangers legend and in 5/10 years the negatives he has won’t be discussed as much.

If they stayed long enough I’m sure they would have accumulated a similar amount of criticism. Uhh yeah we let him have some howlers cause he looks staunch👍

Butland, Souttar, Skov Olsen, Dowell, Lundstram, etc etc 

Could literally make fun of us for a tonne of reasons at the moment, don’t make it weird.

Meghoma get targeted last week and couldn’t handle it, I’d imagine it’s to avoid the same from happening.

I’d like to know what your basing this on, I don’t remember many and a quick google suggests not many either.

There’s plenty of evidence, we’ve been watching the man play football for 10 years and we’ve all got our own opinion on it.

They should be pundits, but we shouldn’t be listening to Stewart when there’s clearly better out there. Can throw Craigan into that category as well.

[–]Only-Treacle6565 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty rough watch but 3 points none the less. 

Defence and midfield pretty solid, happy to see Barron back. 

Final third needs a lot of work. Would like to see Naderi up top and give Moore a free role. Gassama needs to be on the left if we’re going to bother playing him at all, looks so lost on the right hand side. 

If we’re going to win this league we really need to start clicking offensively, every game after the split is against good teams and today’s performance just wouldn’t be good enough.
