Don't leave me down here! Corrected.

I think McLean fits in nicely. He tends to play as the more advanced of the '2', in a 4-2-3-1. Despite playing in a deeper role, he has an attacking intent, I think. He won't get bullied and will drive us forward.

But, but but.. we don't need 2 DMs against diddy teams!

Kamara was solid, again. He's so much better when he keeps is simple: covering, winning the ball, passing it on. He has a good understanding of space and angles too: he's movement to receive a pass is underrated. I would sometimes like more vertical passes into the forwards, though.

Barisic was superb, contributing a goal and a wonderful assist. I thought Helander was very good when he came on, making a couple of important covering tackles. Kent was lively. Aribo less so, but was good in parts and, again, picks up another goal. For me, it has to be Barisic.

What's your thoughts, folks?

I kind of cringed every time Alex Rae said, "I agree with the guys". Is that PC? Is 'guys' gender neutral? Tanner was a bit bland. I'm really enjoying Clive Tyldesley. (KT is alright...)

Look at the state of that; languishing in 21st place... pretty much out of the title race already.

3 goals, another clean sheet and 3 points. A win's a win. We're so slow and ponderous at times, though. It was after that 5 man change which could not have helped.

I'm not really happy. It's so slow and ponderous. I feel for Itten, Roofe (not match fit, at all) - and even Hagi, even if he's not been great - because they're not being given the ball despite constantly showing for it.

Difficult when there's 11 men in the six yard box... I was pleased to see that when crosses went over the other side or knocked out the box, there were a few of our players ready to pick it up. It was great because there was more players in and around to box to take shots but also just to retain and keep the pressure up.

I think the lack of crowd helped us. We had several chances early that were blocked or saved. I think after the first few, the crowd would start their moaning and that would hamper the team. As it was, we kept plugging away and were solid defensively too without getting nervous from the crowd. I was still frustrated with the lack of quality in the final third, overall, but we kept plugging away and controlled the game. I just wonder if we could have kept it up with a baying crowd?

I don't think McLaughlin is good with his feet at all. There was a simple pass, where all he had to do was roll it out to Goldson, but he over hit it and Tavernier had to scramble to keep it in. He's a decent replacement for McGregor, but I think his poor feet will cost us chances and goals.

It's a difficult one: there were a few decent performances. Goldson and Balogun were solid again. Jack and Kamara controlled the game. Kent and Aribo were lively. Barisic steamrolled that left side. I think I'll go with Morelos, though. He's took a lot of stick recently about his form, fitness and mental state. He looked much better yesterday and popped up with 2 goals, and an assist, which got us the points. He's still got a long way to go to get back to his best, but this was better.

Who is your MotM, folks?

Rangers 2 - 0 St Johnstone FGS Morelos

An OG doesn't count as the 'First Rangers Goalscorer'. Morelos was FGS.

You are all taking the p*ss with these Correct Scores. Correct Result (1 pt): Everyone who entered.

Two clean sheets also. We've not looked too troubled defensively in those two league games. Perhaps too early to tell whether that's down to us or poor opponents.

Decent performance, but I'm still concerned we're not scoring the goals our play deserves. Even today, those two late goals were more to do with poor defending rather than us being clinical; we didn't step it up at all. The many late subs precluded any high-octane finish, I suppose. A win's a win.

This is great pressure. I'm delighted that we're nipping it about - it doesn't matter that we're not taking pot shots. Patience. We're still quite sloppy when we take the chance, including the final pass, which is frustrating.

I think Aribo has done well wide -- he's not really supposed to be on the wing, but in the half-space, IMO -- but I think I'd like him where Jack is. I don't think Jack or Kamara deserve to miss out, though, to be honest. I like the control.

I think we've played very well, but there are echoes of last week where we've not really stepped it up. I'm looking for more - it looks like it's there. It's most definitely a 4-2-3-1 from us, with Hagi central, Aribo wide right. I can't complain about Morelos: he looks alright. He's playing between the posts, generally, and had a few difficult chances that worked the 'keeper. I'm generally happy, but I want more. How many players have they got in our box?!
