Pre-Season 2022/23 Megathread | [FT] Rangers 1 (Colak 24') - 2 Tottenham

[Bill 13,717]

The usual suspects look comfortable but we need much more from midfield going forward. Kamara has all the skills but so far he doesn't seem able to link with the front three. I guess Borna will be subbed at HT after taking a knock. With Bassey withdrawn it will be interesting to see who takes his place at LB.

 

Sands looks ready to stake his claim to a starting place.

Typical friendly! all about getting match time.

You're not wrong, but I would like to see more from our forward players. Part of it is we're not supplying them.

I’ve long been an advocate of all pre-season friendlies being behind closed doors with no tv cameras. 
 

This 45 mins is a great example of why this should be the case. It’s all about building fitness, sharpness, getting players used to each other, and pretty much never provides a spectacle or any sort of value for money for gullible eh sorry passionate supporters. 
 

I don’t pay any attention to results in pre-season, I only want to hear that the sharpness is building and no injuries were suffered.

King I would suspect.

I suppose that will be it but Sands could also play there and let King come on at CB.

Adam Devine is on the bench.

I might be wrong, but I think King's primary position is LB.

Is Divine not a RB?

Possibly the beer taking but that first half, pre season or not, was utter pish.

 

The opposition are spfl standard and we need to be blowing them away.
