[FT] Rangers 1 (Sima 67) - 0 Real Betis


Recommended Posts

If we start to pick another workers' team against a better side, we will end up like we did against PSV - twice. Three "attackers" are simply not enough for Europe, and if our wingbacks play as "adventurous" as they do in the Premiership, our defence will once again have a tough time on their hands.

 

Not sure whether Lawrence is fit enough for a starting slot, he only came into the weekend game after half-time. I would assume that we will go with Sima, Matondo/Roofe and Desser up front, and Lammers in behind them. We need to start with a high press and keep them under pressure. Cifuentes and Lundstram/Jack in CM. The defence picks itself, simply because lack of options.

Anyway thank fuck we didn't have to play Arsenal tonight, what with our now depleted squad, they'd have absolutely ripped us apart.

Some of these teams are head and shoulders above us, not even contemplating our current form and injuries. Gave a hats off to Union Berlin only getting defeated 1-0 at Real with a 94th minute winner, despite being under the cosh for 94 mins. But they are a settled, defence-minded counter-attacking team. Our defence is mediocre at best, and utterly sub-standard in CL terms. While our atttack needs to find a formula that works, despite weeks of trail and error.
