Match Thread Rangers v Kilmarnock - 13:00 Sunday - Sky Sports

[McQueen]

You’ll hear the crowd at half time

 

[Vallance]

Conned?

Yes.. killie players go down barging into a Rangers player grabs the ball and gets a free kick...CONNED.

 

[Godrup99]

Doubts creeping in about Clement, this football is brutal to watch. Side to side shit safe passes which we were told we wouldn't be getting.

It's the players. They have no guts or pride in themselves, don't know how many times we need to say there is a common denominator

 

[BrooklynBlue]

A few questions to be asked of Clement in all of this.

 

[Barnster Bear]

If you were down to 10 men you would pick to play us every time

 

[ColdLager]

Where is the urgency? This is a must win game and we are behind

 

[Big Negri]

I refsue to accept there's no players in the academy, under 21s etc that would offer more than Lundstram, Barisic, Silva, Sterling at right wing etc.

If there's genuinely not we'd be as well shutting the doors to the academy.

A fact that should not be overlooked. We have really struggled with injuries and can’t relay on our B team to supply players for cover.

 

[mountloyal]

Need one before the break to take the fight out this mob.

 

[immortal7]

A Pedro feeling about this game.

 

[Madjid Moments]

Clement might find it easier to say which players he would like to keep.

 

[GeeSpot]

Cantwell can come off anytime he likes.

Replace the word come with a well utilised profanity beginning with F and you're a lot closer.

 

[LarkfiedLoyalNS]

Clement being found out here.

Sticking with the same shite and hoping it sticks.

 

[SSR]

This is like watching a punch drunk boxer taking on one fight too many.

 

[VMS]

bringing on Scott Wright and a washed Kemar Roofe to save your love of the manager?

Do yourself a favour.

He's playing fcking silva
Do yourself a favour

 

[dereksmallsloyal]

Get another attacker on ffs.

 

[WATP1979]

When was the last time we played in a different formation? Genuinely can’t recall

We are beyond predictable in this setup particularly with no out and out wingers

 

[Worthy_Candidate]

Would not keep one player of that starting 11.

Maybe Sterling as an option off the bench but just sick of watching these losers. They are an embarrassment.

 

[Spudgun]

We have no clue up front whatsoever.

Add back and middle to that.

 

[Ron Swanson]

What a charlatan that Cantwell is.

Windass without the goals.

 

[ecossebear]

Just after Jan we had a few good games while Cortes was fit but we have been hopeless ever since.

Hopefully it’s different once Phil can get his own players but this is dire to watch.

I think this is spot on. He seemed to like playing width and attacking with fast pacey wingers. Thanks to injuries we’re having to play a striker and a centre back in that position.

 

[Kingwoody]

Cantwell can come off anytime he likes.

Cantwell appears to be the only midfielder trying to get forward

 

[steve1873]

Cantwell our talisman - aye! No wonder he couldn't get in the Norwich side!

 

[gmoothgers]

Stop f*****g trying to float the ball in! It doesn't work, you get zero goals from it! Take a player on! Jesus Christ.

 

[AdiCR2]

I don’t mind people trying things and not coming off but we’re taking the easy option every time. We’re shit scared

 

[deBoersHeader]

Where is the urgency? This is a must win game and we are behind

It's this squads default setting.

 

[Viatrophy]

He loses the league and cup then loses first Of of next season he won’t last!

It’s a scary thought. I think he needs the full season next year at least. We can’t keep signing managers half way through a season as they are on a hiding to nothing.

 

[The Doctor]

Funny to think I used to enjoy watching football.

 

[Betterintune]

Yes.. killie players go down barging into a Rangers player grabs the ball and gets a free kick...CONNED.

A lot more to worry about than experienced players being clever. Something we know fuckall about

 

[SDF]

Come on Phil, change the fucken tactics

Far too easy to lump all this on the players but I'm struggling to see what the manager's gameplan or structure is here.

All we have right now is long balls and cross balls. It's brutal to watch.

That said, it must be soul destroying for him watching some of them utterly refuse to take any responsibility on that pitch.

 

[Vader]

We have two wingers that do nothing on the park, Sterling (ok, not a winger by trade) and Silva. Problem is, the other options are Wright and MacCausland, two players who also don't actually do anything.

 

[Sticky Fingers]

Del Boy channelling his inner Walter here.

Get a goal, then shut up shop and frustrate and get the result.

 

[WillowBear]

It's the players. They have no guts or pride in themselves, don't know how many times we need to say there is a common denominator

Well last season set a standard and it wasn't sorted out re : attitude and fitness of some.

 

[KensingtonBlue]

Feel sorry for Cantwell today. He simply needs better players to work with

 

[willieluc]

As soon as they become favourites this team can't handle it. It's a recurring nightmare with them.

It's always been said they are bottlers looks like it's true

 

[Damask_Rose]

Our movement off the ball is very poor.

 

[BigBlueAngus]

Minimum of three changes at the break needed. And no like-for-like. An actual change in shape. Get Silva or Roofe beside Dessers. McCausland on to the right and let Sterling into midfield. Lundstram hooked.

We're so static, it's absurd. We're just standing looking at nine men behind the ball so we shift it sideways and float a cross in to naebody. Time and again we do exactly what these teams want us to do.

 

[Jamie19892017]

They are cowards. No one will convince me otherwise.

 

[Kirbys House]

Play football Rangers FFS. Use the spare man.

If you just turned on you wouldn’t know we had one. Horrendous

 

[KJ_Rozental]

Todd was actually playing better against 11 men..when it comes to actual creativity and not just running around then he's not a number 10.

 

[Wilso54]

We could play till 8pm tonight and get nothing. These players haven't a clue what they are doing.

 

[Nizzy72]

This is torture.

Kilmarnock are utter shit, even with eleven players.

How does that make us?

 

[Cyberniv]

Lot of hide and seek going on. Passing atrocicious especially pace, movement off the ball and decision making beggars belief.
Wish someone would stand up off their arse and fight for the shirt.

 

[watp85]

Clement being found out here.

Sticking with the same shite and hoping it sticks.

What would your suggestion be with this group of shite bags?

 

[GeeSpot]

Unlucky Silva.

 

[HIHI]

We get 3 points today and Killie may take points off them at Rugby Park
Otherwise season over!

 

[KensingtonBlue]

Del Boy channelling his inner Walter here.

Get a goal, then shut up shop and frustrate and get the result.

Got to hand it to him. He’s good at what he does

 

[VMS]

10 man fvking kilmarnock boos will be ringing out if they can't find the goal before ht

 

[MuddyWaters]

The atmosphere tells you everything you need to know, very flat

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

This.

He’s changes the shape of the team since the red card. The lack of quality isn’t something that can be fixed mid-game. People should look at the bench FFS; it’s not loaded with amazing options.

Scott Wright, Kemar Roofe, Kieran Dowell and Tom Lawrence is his main options, Raskin and young Roscoe as well.

yet Clement is getting told to change it, with what?!

Not with those options anyway.

 

[BlancaBear]

A few questions to be asked of Clement in all of this.

It's definitely building, the players are to blame but he keeps picking them and setting them up the same way (Goldson apart).
