    Can't believe this quote from Gio. Shows a weakness from the top of our club. Time people running our club grew set.

     

    On Rangers' two penalty claims, Van Bronckhorst adds: "VAR will make it easier. These decisions that can be turning points, they can change the game, but there's no VAR, so end of discussion.

    "What can we do? There is no VAR. Every decision that the referee will make, it cannot be overturned, so we have to respect the decision he makes."
     

     

     

    I think you have to remember that English isn't his first language. It sounds very much to me that he doesn't see the point in discussing the decisions as there is nothing he can do about it.

    Yes, I am always a little suspicious of Dutch managers. 

     

    They often do well with Dutch players and teams, because it's ingrained in them to play a certain way from birth. But then take that manager into a team that are not ingrained to play that way and they don't do so well. It's maybe an exaggerated point, but one that I fall back on regularly. 

     

    Van Gaal, for example, does exceptionally well at Dutch sides (Netherlands, AZ, Ajax), and Barcelona--who are similar in the sense that those youngsters are ingrained in a way of playing--but then doesn't quite do it at other clubs (Bayern, Man Utd).   

     

    I was never fully convinced by GvB as an option at the time, but I got on board quickly. My excitement was based on his apprenticeship with Pep, but I've not seen anything of Pep in our games. 

     

    Surely we have a manager that can impose a possession-based style on the team? We don't have bad players, either.

    Don't completely agree, this guys done well:
