We should have scored a few more since the restart, with some nice interplay at the edge of the box.

I think the reason Morelos is looking a little distracted is from Kent's abomination of a 'haircut'. What are those things?

Seeing Arfield come on is deflating.

Good servant, but he's not the most creative.  

I feel more excitement at Barker coming on, which is just wrong. 

Oh-- sitter from Morelos. He's lacking a little something. 

Even that goal was very slow in the build-up. 

It was just clinical. 

We need to up the tempo. 

That's a beautiful goal.

One-two between Aribo and Morelos, with the former slotting it in. 

We're in desperate need of more attacking options.

Gerrard seems to do it quite a lot. 

It was only for certain games, when Helander or Katic suited the opposition. 

My first thought was, I'd rather see Mayo get game-time here.

However, he'll still not get game-time if he's the back-up. First-choice will be Goldson and Edmundson. How often do you rotate CBs? 

It's better if Mayo/McCrorie go out on loan.  

McLaughlin looks a very good shot-stopper. That point-blank save in the second half was outstanding.  

He's atrocious with his feet, though! (Even Sunderland fans were saying similar - and you wouldn't expect them to be playing out from the back.)

Very good deputy, though; very pleased with that signing. 

What?

That last goal was probably the way SG wants us to play and score goals ... only that when it is about points, defenders will jump in more and it gets more nasty. So while this is good to see, we ned people like Hagi (and probably Murphy) trying a shot from the edge of the area ... or when sight of the target.

What are you talking about!?

We're gonna win the Europa League!

I've noticed a couple of differences in the way we're playing.

I think it's more of a narrow front three, a la Liverpool, rather than the noticeable 2 in behind Morelos. They're all quite fluid too, which is nice to see.

I think the wide midfielders (Kamara, Aribo) are overlapping, which I don't think we saw last season. 

Is Tavernier sitting deeper? Barasic is high and wide, but Tavernier not so much. Structural change, to defend against the counter? One full back goes, the other stays back, maybe?

Oh, stop it, Joe! That's absolute filth.

3-0, Aribo.

Some are having trouble with Safari - try Chrome.

That team contained a lot of players that should be contributing to the first team, or at least knocking on the door. 

That result's quite disappointing; not good enough. 

@craig will be rushing over to Kevin Thomson's house soon...

Can you not try to find some common ground? This childish back and forth is boring. 

You can't assume all social media accounts are who they claim to be, but it's also not unreasonable to suggest a minority of Rangers fans will hold questionable views.  

Those are some cracking posts above; balanced and informative. 

I posted it a few days ago:

It almost went under the radar for me, but Nigel Pearson has been sacked by Watford. 

I don't care for the guy, but I'm surprised. There was definite improvement under Pearson. Even if they do get relegated -- which wasn't certain -- he seems to be a good candidate to get them back up.

At least give him the remainder of the season - the caretakers they have now appointed are inexperienced. They're almost giving themselves the best chance of relegation.

Quite amusing but I think we could do with more players who get angry about things.

I agree - I love it when Morelos gets annoyed at not scoring. 

I had a wee chuckle at Morelos at 5.07. 

French Highlights, where they ignore our team lineup, but it'll do for now:
