Wait...they scored 4 goals, conceded 15 and finished with the lowest number of points ever for a Celtic team in the CL and they are wrapping this up as some kind of "victory"? We were rank but at least we are know it.

If our players were more ruthless (and better quality) we could have entered double figures today with ease.

Rangers 2 Aberdeen 1 FGS Colak

Kent, Barasic, Tav, Morelos...you can have the lot for 10 million.

Somewhat unfair to lump Goldson into that list Bill. He's hardly missed a game for Rangers in 4 years until now. I get your point though. Eyewatering is an understatement.

Can anyone tell what Dyche has done to merit being talked about for the Rangers job?

I can't be too critical about tonight TBH. IMO we are playing a potential CL favourite and after 4 games of utter capitulation in the CL, we were braver on the ball and showed more endeavour. That's all I wanted tbh. We were still miles off the pace but let's be honest, even during our EL run our away performances were dire (Dortmund aside), so this comes as no surprise. Positives for me... Young King getting valuable game time in the CL versus a quality team. Yilmaz looking positive and energetic.

Good to see an improvement in overall effort and being brave on the ball. We're still miles off it but they've had 3/4 attacks of note and scored 2. They are a class team and we need to keep going. Subs will be crucial. Take note Gio. Use them wisely.

Good to see the young Turkish player get the nod.

Oh for an away strip with actual Rangers colours.... Sets up a potential headline...Oranges Squashed?

A wee bit harsh on big Leon Frankie. I think he was definitely more than useful IMO. We could be doing with his telescopic legs tonight.

I genuinely fear a doing and in particular what Kharatskhelia could do to us.

Maybe integrate it with the new Edminston House museum entrance?

For this Rangers team at the moment, going out swinging would be an increase in effort, desire, bravery and forward intent.

Who cares at this stage? Whether it's 20 goals or 25 goals, we're out of our depth. At least go out swinging.

5-1 Napoli FGS Kent

I can't see anything other than a good old fashioned going over on Wednesday. With that in mind, surely this is a free hit for Gio? Change the dull and predictable set up and go with 2 up top? Maybe a 3-5-2? At this stage, we basically have nothing to lose. At least show the fans that you're trying something different.

How did we go from skelping Leipzig to reach a Euro final to struggling to get a point against Livingston at home in the space of 5 months? Worrying times.

Rangers 4 Livingston 0 FGS Kent

Would like to see us shuffle the pack and try a 4-4-2. It may be unfashionable but the current set up looks stale in my opinion. 4-4-2 with full backs providing width plus middle diamond. Kent playing deeper as an inside left with the box in front of him as opposed to being stuck on the wing. -------King------Davies------ Tav---------------------Borna -----------Lundstram--------- -----Tillman----------Kent---- --------------Arfield---------- ---------Roofe-----Colak-----

The past is past so let's look forward. We have a chance to stay in touch with them. Livvy will be a tough but to crack but I think it is really time for some individuals to step up (Morelos, Kent, Matondo)

I'm hoping the WC will derail any momentum the Tims have and in turn will give us time to reset and get viable options back in the squad. A fit Goldson, Hagi, Roofe and Lawrence will undoubtedly make a difference to our options for the 2nd half of the season. This however is dependent on being within touching distance to them.

A semi final in an irrelevant cup in a tin pot stadium against Aberdeen in 3 months time? At this point in time, this is not even just off the radar. It's light years away.

A les Mis fan?...

With regards to injuries, Jack, Roofe, Helander and Souttar all had pretty poor injury records prior to joining Rangers.
