Whosthedado 1,680 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 It shows how far Barasic has turned it around this season when we are all desperate for him to play. We definitely missed him last night especially in an attacking sense. Have to say I wasn't confident about this game before last night and obviously the collapse from two up has done little to encourage me. On the other hand the other mob are not great and if we score first I think we'll have a chance 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 It's not many weeks ago that no one wanted Barisic anywhere near a Rangers team and we didn't only start winning games when he got his place back. He's been doing really well lately but let's not lose all sense of proportion. Gerrard will probably play Flanagan on Sunday and he may well do OK. We didn't lose yesterday just because Flanagan was in our defence. Flanagan had a poor game but he wasn't responsible for Tavernier, Goldson and Helander playing like cub scouts. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

compo 7,037 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Being one footed does not mean your a bad player everyone's having a go at Flanagan because he had a ninety minutes he would rather forget but his team mates had long enough to get the result . This bloke did very well with his one good foot 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,293 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 The whole defence have been at fault for most of the goals conceded this season. We're continually losing goals due to our own errors, which is disappointing. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand the other mob are not great and if we score first I think we'll have a chance The flip side to the consistency of Barasic is that up until Wednesday, Flanagan hadn´t played a real competitive match for months and it showed. Against Celtic in early September. Flanagan at left-back meant that our attacking balance suffered and we couldn´t exploit the space that Celtic deliberately left down our left. To be fair to JF, it has to be said that he defended well that day and Forrest didn´t get a look in. Ryan Kent joined just after the Celtic match and he certainly provides a threat on the left but he needs a supporting full-back on his outside. One who can cross a ball with his left foot (beats me why a professional can´t add this to his game). I´d guess that Barasic will take the pain-killing injection if that means he can start. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess he will play, the old saying about playing through the pain barrier is true, a pain killing injection is very common. If Barisic can't play then Halliday would be a far better option than Flannagan, at least Halliday will get forward and can cross a decent ball with his left peg. Still think Barisic will make it though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This bloke did very well with his one good foot Agree being one footed does not make you a bad player but combined with other deficiencies e.g. lack of talent does not help. Your picture of my all time hero shows a man who had talent,similarly Davy Cooper. My criticism of Flanagan is not based on one game but his overall play. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
