Schick is a top striker imo. This is a very tough game, but I look forward to it.

John Lundstram for me. Unlucky not to score

If we pretend Gio has taken our great club to a european final in the last six months it will be much easier to support him, oh wait! we don't have to pretend 🙄 he did do that, and won the Scottish Cup last season, and got us into a Champions League we obviously had no right to get into with our squad of old men, young boys and more than a few injury prone players. Pep or Klopp could not have done much better with this broken squad imo. C'mon The Gers 🔴⚪🔵 WATP 🏆 GIO

The title of this thread, "The Champions League has moved on; we haven’t", states that our club has been left behind by the Champions League regulars. This is undoubtedly true. How we want to see the club close that massive gap could be broken down into different categories such as finances (ultimately & unfortunately the deciding factor), transfer activity (linked to finances), quality of tactics and coaching (also linked to finances), willingness to cheat on the park (what moral depths are we willing to dive too, pun intended). There are no doubt other categories, but most stem from finances imo. That leaves us with two choices. Firstly, do we show patience with our current board or dream about a fantasy no strings Investor. Second, do we want to see cheating become our norm. I can only speak/type for myself when I say I hate the accepted level of cheating in modern football. Ballboys (children) being coached to cheat is disgusting. I still believe that given the proper level of support Gio & his staff are the correct team to keep The Gers moving forward. WATP

I'm not one for stats (especially goal difference), but this chart is very good.

Went for Tillman, but agree with Compo, the young man King needs a special mention.

I missed us taking part in the CL, even the theme tune. But this season has shown that the gulf between the haves and have nots is getting larger and larger. This campaign was hideous and painful, certainly not entertainment. I find most theories of how, why and who is responsible are no more enjoyable than the defeats we endured and they only serve to divide us. But we must go back if only to achieve the odd victory in a competition that we have become a whipping boy in. One of the halcyon days of my life was watching Rangers beating a star studded Parma team in the CL. I want to see our great club working towards giving us days like that again. WATP

The DoF identifies and signs players not the manager. Gio is a coach and is there to coach the players available to him. He cannot speak out against the board, or burst down their door.

I'm still behind Gio 100%. I do not believe anyone could do any better with the players who were available. WATP

If The Gers are at there best then we might get something from this game, but a five goal advantage seems very unlikely.

Sakala. The Man from Zambia's best game for the Gers yet.

I was wondering if anyone else was enjoying Miguel Almiron out scoring fancy pants Jack Grealish as much as me. Almiron 7 - Grealish 1

Sign Gio for at least a decade.

I'd keep them both

Nice

Great game today. The sheep goal should have been chopped off & the "Duk of Dive" booked. If we carried some luck it would have been lambs to the slaughter ! Ha ha

Given a decent squad Gio will be great. What he's done with the squad we have (which reminds me of Brooke donkey sanctuary) proves it imo.

The second half was watchable. Good performance from young Ridvan, and a great learning experience for young King. Unfortunately we are just miles off this level of competition. Our Captain was as bad as I've ever seen him. Thought McGregor could have saved the header. Overall, I don't feel too gutted by tonight's defeat though.

C'mon The Gers. Have a go, why not. WATP
