Happy with that team, except for No.23.  

Aye same here, if Borna is positive and direct then his inclusion is fine with me.

 

Hopefully they both have a blinder.

Raskin well out the picture. 
 

Looking forward to seeing Diomande. This may be his kind of game.

We seem to play better at the moment when Ridvan is in the team, and Wright hasn't done anything to suggest he deserves a start. I know the manager is changing the team around to keep players fresh, but it may reach the stage where we're doing it too much.

 

However I guess he deserves our trust given what he's done.

I thought Wright did reasonably well in the last game.

A must win game today just to give us that psychological edge over the EastEnders 

[Gonzo79 15,293]

I'd be starting McCausland and Cortes as the wide attackers but as Bluedell said, I trust the manager.

Agree with most comments in this thread about the selection, Wright has seldom delivered from a starting slot and is better from the bench (low bar I know!) and I’m comfortable with Barasic starting as I don’t think there is much difference going forward and he is the slightly better defender but this looks more like the first choice team middle to front. We must start fast and strong. Got a great opportunity to go 2 points clear with 12 games remaining but Levein and the officials will make this very difficult so we need to be right on it.

Would prefer Ridvan in there tbh. Decent enough team and strong bench to mix it up. Cmon Rangers! 3 pts

[Sutton_blows_goats 5,335]

Pitch looks terrible

C'mon Lads!
