I like Marcelo Gallardo, but the rest of the Bluenoses will have their own ideas. The thread was just me suggesting that we go after a manager with serious intent to get a finished article and not settle for experiments. That way we can all get behind him and not be waiting for the wheels coming off.

Since the late Walter Smith last managed The Famous Glasgow Rangers a dozen years past now we have had to endure some experimental appointments (being kind) in the managers seat. MB with around a dozen games under his belt at QPR, Stevie G with none, Perdo Caixinha, well lest said about Perdo "The Bushman" Caixinha the better. Graeme Murty must have managed our great club for over six months over a couple of spells with no first team managment experience. Even club hero, Ally McCoist had no first team managment experience. There are of course others with more experience like Warburton, Giovanni van Bronckhorst or Stuart McCall, but none that were the sort of proven top managers I would expect to take up the role. If we were to take the type of money we spend on a player (5 - 7 million) and spend it on a manager I am sure we could attract someone more suitabe. I honestly think a top manager can have a better effect on a team than one more player. We are after all the greatest club in the world and deserve the best.

It has not been a joke for me since the trophyless season we endured last year. Not answering for a friend.

That dive by Cantwell was embarrassing. The Gers were unorganised crap tonight, players & coaches. I get it was a friendly, but that aint good enough for me. That aint good enough for Rangers.

Should go through against either of those sides.

Without Sakala we would have been beaten by a pretty poor Hamburg side. 1 goal 1 pen.

There are defo elements of this I agree with. After the recent debate on this forum over our supposed system I think it's fair to say there is some confusion over our style of play/system. Imo we are a little slack in terms of disipline, or maybe there are just to many players who are free to float for my taste. This must make covering much harder and leeds to slip ups, which we are prone to.

Cannot say I'm impressed with Sima so far, but it's early days

I had a wee enforced lay off last season, but I really enjoyed being back at Ibrox today. Watching the UB's sing along with the Hamburg fans, and the "No Surrender, union flag" tifo was cool. As for the game, I thought a few Gers played well, with Souttar, Sakala, Dowell & Yilmaz standing out. I was also chuffed to see Lawrence & Roofe get some minutes. WATP

None of those two excite me like the idea/dream of a fully fit Roofe

No

6 million quid for Danilo seems crazy to me tbh. I hope Dessers plays well today, and Roofe can stay fit.

Away Third Home

I love going to the game with my two sons. Unfortunately only one of them can come today as his brother cant get the day of work. But two of us are still going to enjoy the game. C'mon The Gers

Having these three fully fit excites me more than any of the new signings. Hagi has the best feet at the club, Roofe is a great striker and Lawrence could be an awesome player for us. Had those three been fit last year we would have won the league imo.

This one is ok, but out of the three I prefer the white one.

I don’t really have a problem with Wright, but he is supposed to be on the way out so why give him minutes.

Not too impressed by the new guys tbh. We were a much better team when Hagi & Raskin were brought on. Yfeco & Lowry looked good. Why o why bring on Wright ?

As am I

I would imagine getting a few out will be a higher priority than more in as the squad must be in the mid thirties by now 🤔

A defender who can stay fit would be good too 🙄

Agree 100%

This is a sentiment I agree with. I find myself hoping that Roofe is and can rmain fit as he is a much better player than any we have been linked too.

If his goal stats don't have you worried perhaps a look at abdallah sima's injury record over two years will.
