Expand We certainly need an element of variety as you say but we also need to improve the quality of corners and the likes of Tavernier hasn't produced an effective corner kick in weeks. Our hit rate at corners is appalling. At Leicester City, James Madison is one of their principal goal threats but takes most of their corner kicks for the simple reason he's good at it. There are other examples. Actually, having looked at the stats for goals scored from corner kicks, we would be more likely to score if we just used corners to take possession of the football and forgot about crossing into the penalty box.

Expand Have posted before a game where Candeias got the ball first,immediately threw it into Windass who went on and scored.Don't ever remember it happening again. What Tav reminds me off is another player who had "Ma Baw" attitude. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand When was the last time that he tried something unorthodox? Step-over. step-over, dribble past one, two ... and one-too-many. About 5 to 10 times per game. Then he actually whips in a decent cross or two and all is forgotten. He had a decent enough 2nd half on Wednesday, there's no-one denying that. And likewise I pointed out that he has, in general, fine stats for a winger. Yet, the end product that is required for a left-attacking slot is simply not there right now. It will sure help if we actually play another striker/finisher alongside Colak, so Kent has more to aim at and play with. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has nothing to do with me of course but if it was I'd suspend your account for a week, for two good reasons.... 1. To stop what has clearly become an excessive and unreasonable campaign to discredit a Rangers player 2. More importantly, to give the rest of us a break from your incessant, whining negativity. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
