How would you rate Morelos so far?
BlackSocksRedTops replied to Ser Barristan Selmy's topic in Rangers Chat
I agree. I'm still not 100% sure if he will be the guy to fire us to the title but only time will tell. I still think we are too light up front. Alfredo has great qualities (as well as flaws) and scoring goals in big games can only help his confidence and development. -
I see our victory over league leaders Hearts was the 14th story on the BBC Scottish football page today. It was superseded by stories about Derek McInnes reading kids books and the departure of the Dumbarton manager. The first article about our game focuses on a video of a Hearts player performing a nutmeg

Superb as ever 26th of Foot. Take a bow

Interesting indeed. We will monitor this situation closely...?

Still in a position to peddle his lies

So the wee scrote has been promoted at PQ? Is this a sign of defiance from them with regards to the Rangers situation?
-
Surely that's a promotion? How did this talentless scrote swing that one

I agree to a certain extent but the market in England is crazy (Armstrong went to Southampton for 7/8 million for example). With the money sloshing around the top 2 leagues in England it's a sellers market, we have to maximise the value of our assets (if we are going to sell)

For some reason I feel that we are going to wallop Hearts today. If we can get the first goal and I think it will open up for us. I'll go for 4-1. Alfredo or Tav for first goal -
No chance. If England is his destination, you are looking £10 million plus. That is spare change to most EPL teams

What's the best atmosphere you have seen at Ibrox?
BlackSocksRedTops replied to Ser Barristan Selmy's topic in Rangers Chat
Old Firm wins aside, the Kiev game in 87 was out of this world. Parma in 99 was special to. The Aberdeen last day league decider (2-0 Hateley) was also a stand out -
Celtic: It's not a neutral venue Wee Anne Budge: Em....you,ve played there as much as Hearts in the last 4 years... GIRUY

I saw that Frankie. After the Livingston fiasco, you really do wonder about people

Fair enough but any team will do more damage when their crosses/passes are from the byline and more advanced positions. I agree that crosses from less advanced crosses can be effective but our success rate of late has been poor and it's a "hopeful" tactic for me. If teams are sitting deep, we just need work out how to negate this or we are going to have a lot of away games like Livingston IMO. With regards to McGregors distribution, it is good but for me he is too keen to go long. Even last night he visibly gestured that he wanted to go long and in turn he punted it nobody.

I thought Ejaria was the stand out last night. He's always on the turn and looking to get forward which I like. It doesn't always come off but if you keep knocking at the door you'll get something (the penalty for example). Looking at the bigger picture, my biggest "concern" is how narrow we are and our use of wide players/full backs. If Kent and Candeias (or whoever) are playing in this narrow formation we really need to get our full backs hitting the byline (as Man City utilise so well). I said it another post but I cannot recall any occasions in the last few games where our full backs actually hit the byline and get crosses into the dangers area (back post/6 yard line/penalty spot). If we can crack that Morelos would score a barrel load. Another thing I have noticed, is that there are too many times of late when we have resorted to the hopeful "floaty" ball into the box which drives me friggin crazy. Another bug bear is McGregors distribution. I noticed a few times last night Goldson having a go at the keeper because he was too keen to go long. This was after Goldson making an angle for a pass with no one around him. It's giving up the possession too easily for me. Anyhoo, it was a great win and 2nd half display. Well Done Rangers

Call their bluff. Give them 50% and let's marvel at all the empty seats.
