Two massive games to come. If we sit at five consecutive wins I think we will all be delighted

Long term we would be better selling Tav and keeping Patterson .

A win's a win. I don't mind conceding the odd goal if we're scoring a few - although, conceding two is too many!

Maybe it's showing how much we have missed Jack's protection in there.

Makes sense to start both Hagi and Aribo as Victoria Park always looks one of the tighter pitches so these two can usually operate well in such situations. Hoping for Expecting a good performance and three points.

Roofe was terrific against Dunfermline and can't play in Europe, so I'm disappointed to see him on the bench. I'd also prefer Hagi in midfield (rather than Aribo) but we'll have to wait and see who plays where.

Qualifying is essential for our finances. Losing on Sunday would be horrendous, as it always is but not something we can't fix later on.

Agreed, we need to qualify on Thursday, we don't need to win on Sunday, although I would prefer to win both ?

I would say qualifying is, as there are plenty of games left to contest the league.

Barisic is struggling with an injury and a short pre-season, completely different from Tav / Patterson scenario. The manager has shown he'll play Patterson when Tav us unavailable. He also reacted to the £5M bid by laughing it off, shows he rates Patterson very highly. Remember it wasn't long ago that the likes of Bates and McCorrie were being touted as future Rangers and Scotland captains. BTW, I rate Patterson as the best prospect we've had since Barry Ferguson.

I think we'll be fine in Yerevan but have concerns about next Sunday. We need more intensity, consistency and the defence needs to sharpen up.

The type of player Arsenal would never buy.

I see Lukaku scored on his return to the pensioners a win for Spurs but United could only draw what's the point of spending lots of money on Sancho and not putting him in the starting eleven .

Could be a small crowd next week then ?? very small.

Good. He is a big big talent. Already an international with European experience and only 19. If someone wants Patterson they need to come up with 20 million in my opinion, which they won’t, so that’s fine - we keep him. He’ll only increase in value over the next 3 years and he will be a regular starter sooner rather than later.

Nah, just ban racist scumbags who shame name of the club. Simples.

Hopefully the racists will be identified and banned from Ibrox for life.

Good all round team performance , some of our play showed we are back to near our best . The two goals were both disappointing and unlucky , especially the penalty , but we have had the decisions on these go for us so we just need to suck it up . Biggest disappointment is the idiots on the bus that was posted on line , singing the old , Nakamura dog song , why they sang it , why it was posted online god only knows , but bans will have to be swift and plentiful , you simply cannot get away with that shit , there’s no place for it , same for the Celtic fan calling Alfie a “ M*****” when he scored , filming it and putting it online , what’s wrong with these idiots .

They'll press, leave gaps and offer up chances. They still appear to be suspect at set-pieces as well. We match their press and our forward players impose themselves like we know they can, I think game will suit us.

We will really need to up a few levels if we want any kind of result next weekend. Not over concerned about Thursday as I feel the game will suit us but Sunday is a worry.

Do you think it's the defence, or what's in front of the defence?

Far more positives than negatives in 1st half - just need to reassert ourselves in the game, play at our tempo and we'll create chances.

We've gone from an iron current defence to a toilet paper defence over the close season. Look like conceeding every game we play at the moment. Need to lift the pace and play game in their half.

And... @Frankie gets in first. Stupid mobile...

Brilliant second goal - need to keep this going - goals here for the taking if we want them

Peach of a finish

Started with a good temp which has now dropped and game being played at walking pace which suits our hosts more than us.

Playing in "lilic" - I've turned game off.....

I never understand why principle is so ignorant of practice. It is a rubbish idea in both principle and practice.

Apparently Everton offered 5m for Patterson. It made me think,it would actually be really good if a club made a good offer for Tav this transfer window. Patterson looks ready and Tav will only have financial worth for a limited amount of time, as much as I love the guy.

Aribo and Hagi have rotated a bit, and often both played further forward, so that shouldn't be an issue. I am surprised Roofe isn't in for Kent.

I'd have went with Aribo, Morelos and Roofe up front, with Hagi, Davis and Kamara in midfield. That starting eleven should beat Ross County comfortably though.

Yeah would like to have seem both Roofe and Alfie and hope Aribo is in front 3 and Hagi in midfield.

Would like to have seem both Alfie and Roofe start, but that's a decent starting 11 given Wright is missing through injury.

Injuries aside, this should be audition for the Tims game IMO. Next week will be tough game so the players should be looking to lay down a marker today.

I don't usually pay much attention to the line-up but it'll be interesting to see who starts today. Kent is likely to start, as Wright has a knock. Will Bacuna be available/ready? Hopefully we don't go down the 'get it wide and send in hopeful balls' route and instead try to get to the byline or play quick passing through the middle.

We really need Kent to turn a corner considering the games we have over the next week. I genuinely hope we go and set a temporary in the first half. Going in at 0-0 in these fixtures fills me with dread.

Were not getting it easy just now. Ill take any type of performance tomorrow as long as its 3 points.

Full name according Wikipedia ? .

A salary cap has to be the most retrograde proposal yet. Who do these people at UEFA think they are? The world is drowning in self-important bureaucrats.
