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

[JayDee]

Another good save.

 

[dereksmallsloyal]

It’s absolutely fckg brutal

 

[IrvineLoyal]

this Rangers team are pathetic

 

[Barnster Bear]

Stop the fucken high balls.

 

[GeeSpot]

Another keeper channeling Lev Yashin into the performance against us.

 

[Earth Worm Jim]

We absolutely fucking love a clipped ball to the back post to absolutely no lady's front bottom

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

He's playing fcking silva
Do yourself a favour

He's also playing Dessers.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Get another attacker on ffs.

Really don’t understand why we haven’t. We need to win and with goals to spare to. Killie are going to be defending for 90% of what’s left of the game.

 

[Pentasa]

2 players the Manager has bought in his 1 window look decent, lets at least give him another Window before we do our usual and start posting about "questions being asked" and "red flags"

 

[Gameboy]

Seeing Lundstram loves being beside the cb’s drop him into a back three. Get Borna and Tav higher and wider, Silva up top with Dessers and Sterling in beside Dio.

 

[BlancaBear]

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.

Mccausland on the right up against a tiring full back on a yellow.

 

[Big Negri]

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

He’s a big problem too.

 

[The Doctor]

At last, something for their keeper to do.

 

[EddiBrock]

Once again, even more concerning than the scoreline is the inability to create decent goalscoring chances from open play

Pen aside, have we had any "should have scored there" or "should have done better" moments?

Feels like most games in recent weeks

 

[BigBadJohn]

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.

Same mate I said similar in a match thread a few weeks back and someone said our football would make big Sam Allardyce embarrassed.

We're long ball hoof merchants. Zero quality. Zero tempo. He's made watching my team a fucking chore. It's not enjoyable at all.

 

[Jamie19892017]

Another keeper channeling Lev Yashin into the performance against us.

He's only made one save of note (the pen)?

 

[LJ50]

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.

Your bottom two paragraphs are linked. It’s the desperation to avoid taking responsibility that leads to the aimless long balls and crosses.

 

[The Blue Lamp]

Back to just launching balls into the box and hoping for the best.

 

[Sideshow Bob]

This shite te4m has actually run out of ideas, talent and fight. Not that I thought there was much available talent in the first place.

At this rate Saturday is going to be painful.

 

[Carson's Cat]

Defend pathetically, ship a soft goal, miss a penalty then play wanky football vs 10 men?

This is our season in 45 minutes.

 

[Damask_Rose]

Any Rangers team at home to Kilmarnock with 10 men should be gubbing them.

 

[Wee Buster]

Silva and Cantwell off HT - move Sterling more central

 

[scottie626]

punished twice watching the game and listening to kenny miller

 

[BrooklynBlue]

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

Then stop playing the same players. Or perhaps amend our set-up to accommodate the players we do have.

This is a dreadful watch. We're going to end up further behind Celtic than when he arrived.

 

[Sherbet Dab]

Fk sake it wouldn’t matter if Kilmarnock played Les Dennis in goal, we’d still not trouble him.

 

[thornhill bear]

too slow in everything, total pish

 

[wilso10]

Had clement changed anything to take advantage of the extra man?

 

[mountloyal]

They are soaking up balls into the box.
We need a bit of magic from someone.

 

[GovanFrontLoyal]

Wtf is it with absolute jobber keepers having worldly after worldly displays against us,

 

[Mr_Miscellaneous]

Playing against 10 men for a quarter of an hour now and done %^*& all.

 

[WillowBear]

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

There is more fight in a punch drunk boxer.

 

[Luis Fernandez]

1-0 to Wilson in the snooker. He cleared a 129 in less time than it takes us to create a chance.

 

[ForeverBlue1972]

Take Lundstram off put sterling in midfield put on McCausland

 

[EddiBrock]

He’s a big problem too.

Sand dancer

Flatters to deceive

Luxury we can't afford right now

 

[Mabearette]

Please Gers....dig deep....wake up.....
You can do this.

 

[Wilso54]

Lundstram with the high floaty ball, clueless.

 

[nelster]

Never mind saying alarm bells

3 months watching Tavernier as a defensive central midfielder when we attack is an act of self harm

Criminal

Still he wont change this crap

Thats the manager, not Tavernier

 

[Barnster Bear]

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.

This is on the manger first, but as you say the players should be stepping up.

 

[Blootoonboy]

Get Silva through the middle and pace on the flanks!

Killie will defend like this all week and not concede, we are turgid!

 

[Sticky]

Cantwell the bo trick pony.

sorted

 

[julian candy]

Barisic finally makes a block when it'd suit us for them to hook it down to nobody

 

[cooperman]

our crosses are dire

 

[Beanzie]

Other than the pen their keeper hasn't really been tested.

 

[Eddie Doc]

Get another attacker on ffs.

Should have happened long ago.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Bear hug right infront of the ref

No foul

 

[qpranger]

I would imagine the lesser spotted Kemar Roofe will make an appearance in the second half.

 

[Potnbear]

What is he supposed to do? Our squad is injury-ridden and completely devoid of quality.

Absolutely pointless expecting him to turn water into wine with this lot.

These displays are nothing to do with the quality on the park. It's evident there is no brand, no style, no method in our play. There is no combinations, no transition, long floated balls, we don't win 2nd balls at any time. Players actually look confused

 

[Dave Angell]

No matter what happens between now and end of the season, I want this squad gutted.

There’s just nothing from this group of players. No urgency, no passion.

 

[Batigol]

The manager gets a pass with this bunch of non-entities. However, if he persists beyond the summer with a core of them then he's a madman

 

[Corriebear]

If Clement sticks with Lundstram in midfield at HT then I have real concerns.

The clearest change to make at HT is take off slow Lundstram and replace with McCausland. Move Sterling to midfield and put McCausland up against a player already on a booking.
