Beattie 0 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Gotta agree Gribz, although Charlie Adam IS a genuine midfielder. In his best season to date (last season at St. Mirren), he was always either on the left or in the middle of a midfield 4. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve 0 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 We lack the ability to go for the jugular..another game that should have been won quite easily.. Some of the players lack any real passion!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bluetooth Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Going back to the tip tap post I still think the worst offender is Barry Ferguson. His instant reaction when he gets the ball is to turn around and pass it back or square. Theres no doubt he's a good player and his heart is in the right place but as soon as he returned to the team the amount of chances per game we have created has diminished. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At last someone agrees with me about Fergie. He only slows up the play, and as Bluetooth says he mostly plays the ball square or back. He lets midfied runners go while jogging back at totoise pace. My feelings on him are known on here he should never have been brought back from Blackburn. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,551 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 How come every time we are struggling it becomes Barry Ferguson's fault? It's the same with the Scotland team. Barry Ferguson gives 100% every time he pulls on the jersey. I'm not sure I could say that about every Ranger at the moment. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the engine does not run properly then the bus will run badly. That is what is happening imo, we cannot get a grip of the midfield. Barry has had one good season and years of moaning about being injured. We need a more adventurious playmaker who wil keep the tempo high and not give the opposition time to get 8 defenders behind the ball. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascender 352 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I thought Fergie has been excellent the last few games and noticeably, he seems to be a lot more positive and going forward more. Did that not happen yesterday then? You'd have thought that at Ibrox especially, that's where he should be pushing up the park rather than sitting deep or playing back the way. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Yes he does look great when he is strutting about slowing the game down,turning this way and that way. Unfortunatly the rendement is minimal and allows 8 people to get behind the ball. When do you see him playng high tempo 1-2's with other players and delicate through balls. No sorry on possession he will always be a candidate for man of the match but not on rendement. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres no doubt he's a good player and his heart is in the right place but as soon as he returned to the team the amount of chances per game we have created has diminished. I would go along with that also, although he has played well recently but he needs to do it week in week out. But its true when he came back into the team this season our sexy football from the first few games went out the window. Ive said for 2 years now that he takes on too much responsibility in the midfield by taking possession too deep. He should be getting forward more like he did against Porto last season at Ibrox where he was fantastic. But his heart is in the right place and he has the right attitude. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Why do the Scottish boys always get it first? Buffel was surely the most anonymous player today. Because it just so happens that Boyd and Adam were shite of the higest order on Saturday. Boyd can't hold the ball up, his 1st touch is shocking and Adam is just a hit and hope player. I'll agree Buff was pish too but I thought he was better than the 2 I mentioned before. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
