There is no Rangers player in the 6 yard box This is the 'Igamane is not a #9' thing again. It is every week after our manager decides to try and play with him as a solo striker. It just doesn't work domestically. It might work in Europe as the games are completely different. Igamane for me is a Teddy Sheringham type player and needs and Andy Cole up front to play off of. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A happy day and I think they would have gone on to win it but for the disruption of the team’s momentum. A team with a Gough, Brown and Ferguson in it would never have lost momentum. Could Smith or Wallace have got last year’s players on track? I don’t think so and if they couldn’t there’s no surprise that Clement didn’t. I fault him, though, for not being able to use the experience to get the players fired up sufficiently for this season. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutton_blows_goats 5,915 Posted Tuesday at 11:01 Share Posted Tuesday at 11:01 xGA away from home is a massive issue. We cant stuff teams out of games the same way we could under Smith or Big Eck. A high ball into our box or in behind causes chaos. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon 1,501 Posted Tuesday at 11:11 Share Posted Tuesday at 11:11 (edited) At the risk of sounding monotonous, we could win easily by scoring more goals than we concede. He needs to drop this one striker guff which is basically negating Igamane's talents. Just as well Neil McCann has given up on management. He kept saying Rangers just weren't ticking and he couldn't put his finger on why. Edited Tuesday at 19:24 by Blue Moon 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Clement is to blame. Around this time last year we were flying. We then lost to Motherwell at home (he changed the way Tav and BB/ Ridvan played - I said inverted, @Rousseau told me off! 😉), then our away form fell away (Ross County and Dundee). He also started making some really strange team selections and subs which had an impact on our form. Those decisions have been mirrored this season and @Rousseau XG and XGA tell a sorry story. We should have won the league last season but capitulated and ended up a poor second (sounds all to familiar). 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
