As you say he will learn. Or that, yes! Fernandinho was the master of those niggly fouls that just stop attacks. He'll learn. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's widely thought that Haaland isn't a very good all-round footballer. He scores goals, that's it. He's also City's sole striker. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 7,883 Posted August 7, 2024 Share Posted August 7, 2024 Do we have a defensive coach and if so sack him because he’s failing in his job 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lethal close range finisher, can imagine he gets rinsed in a rondo though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uilleam 6,378 Posted August 7, 2024 Share Posted August 7, 2024 People are not going to agree about our No 9. I am not sure even if they are prepared to agree to differ. There is only one solution: for as long as he plays for Rangers, we must call him The Enigmatic Cyrille Dessers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think a lot of the defensive issues are a result of poor pressing. Was a wee bit better for the first 30. I think Johnny Walker did a clip about it on socials, I'd include it but idk if that's poor etiquette. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil's advocaat 1,821 Posted August 7, 2024 Share Posted August 7, 2024 I wonder, is this CL tie the first that both teams haven't been able to play in their home stadium?. Can't have been many I'd imagine. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think a lot of the defensive issues are a result of poor pressing. Its by no means the only issue, but I think this is one of the fundamental issues. Get a #10 who understands, when, how and where to press and it transforms the whole team 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
