Match Thread [FT] St Mirren 0 - 3 Rangers (Tavernier 30' pen, 90+1'; Sima 71')

[Bill 13,717]

As a vote of confidence in the heroes of Limassol, I suggest the following couldn't do any worse. Imagine the joy of not seeing Tavernier, Goldson, Barisic, Lundstram, Dessers or Lammers.

 

Butland

Devine - Souttar - Balogun - Yilmaz

Raskin - Jack - Rice

Sima - Roofe - McAusland

I'd love to see that happen as well but you know fine well Steve Davis is not the man to make wholesale changes. These failures are all his teammates. I will doubt if there are more than 3 changes from Limassol to Paisley.

[Whosthedado 1,680]

That team still looks absolutely dreadful

Surely we have to drop Lammers and Dessers for their own good.

I think it looks much better without imposters.

Yeah it puts him in a very difficult position once a perm appointment comes in and he reverts back to a player (if he ever plays again)

Copied from the reply I just made in the EL "disaster" thread ...

Which brings me back to the system. St. Mirren is "flying", yet only faced the rest of the dross in the Premiership so far. They will probably be in our faces on Sunday, hence, I'd go nominally 3-4-3, with Souttar coming in. Lundstram as DM, Raskin as CM, Ridvan filling the left wingback slot, Wright right wing. Sima, Roofe, and Dessers up top.

 

Butland

 

Souttar - Goldson - Davies

 

Wright - Lundstram - Raskin - Ridvan

 

Sima - Dessers - Roofe

Surely to God we don't think Steve Davis will be back in a Rangers team?

Dessers leading the attack? I mean, come on!
