Terrible performance. I had a feeling that was coming. We need to freshen up the team

Agreed. If this is his philosophy he's in for a shock.

Bizarre tactics.
Don’t win leagues trying to sit in and hold a one nil lead for an entire half against dross like Aberdeen.

We need better footballers in midfield, it was an abomination in that area tonight.
Aye okay mate the performance was good and his tactics were spot on.

Sometimes I wish they would just go two up top, lessen the pressure, bring itten on instead of lundsrtrum.
We are missing out on the best of Tav and Borna by constantly holding them back. Yes, it needs to be controlled but come on, let's attack the opposition
A performance like that has been coming in Gio’s tenure so far.
We shouldn’t been lining up against Hearts, Hibs and Aberdeen away and sitting back deep and hitting them on the counter.
The games mentioned above we done so and in my opinion we were lucky to get 2 wins from the above.
Improvement is needed urgently and we need to go into the transfer market.

We need to hope and pray that Nigeria get knocked out in the next round.

Our tactics were terrible today.
If we play like that at Parkhead - or even try to emulate the same tactics as tonight - then we will get pumped.

If you think tonight was an isolated example of what the OP is talking about, you've not been watching our away games.
Not sure how people can blame the tactics. The midfield possession was terrible as was Kents. If they were able to keep the ball then maybe we could have built something.

Does not sit well with me sitting in and counter attacking. Always liable to concede and we did tonight.

Can see what he’s trying to do but it isn’t working.

Horrific, for the first time I don’t blame the players. I’m not sure how they overcame gios tactics to even get a draw from that. We literally had one midfielder in Kamara on the pitch, sands I’ve no idea what the %^*& he is and having isn’t a midfielder. We then not only gave the ball up the players when in possession didn’t have a clue what to do.
zero movement, no triangles, no stretching, no control. Not a fucking clue.
we played like st Johnstone and more worryingly less organised.

We were poor today, Gio seemed to be happy with us sitting back to hold onto a clean sheet but I don't think you can or should do that at only 1-0. We should have went for a 2nd and then done that.
Aberdeen ofc helped by Clancy the cheat. Every chance he gets he fucks us. That is the most pathetic red card you'll ever see. Pen was a pen, but as soon as we touched any of their players it was a free kick. It was worse than watching Spanish football

some people really expect us to play silky football every single game.
one misplaced pass and I bet they are raging instantly and for the rest of the game.

People need to get a grip on here a bad performance can happen and every rangers fan knows this is always 99%of the time hardest game of season because they put more effort in than any other game in the season so it could be worse we could be 4pts behind

Lundstram for Wright was an absolute howler imo. His first mistake as Rangers manager

Gave them too much respect.
Brought back memories of Gerrard's first league game for us.
Don't know why we convince ourselves Pittodrie is a tough away game, they're fucking shite.

The one thing we have become used too is dominating the ball
Tonight we chose to not even have a midfiled in the middle of the park
We had a defense & we had an attack
No middle area to the team
Absolute madness
Simply, why????????

Seriously what do you know about tactics - do you implement them for a team other than in your head?
The biggest problem was the slackness in playing the ball out from the back specifically Bassey and Barisic.

Trust the process. The team is adapting to a new system. It doesn’t happen overnight.
A counter attacking strategy would suit us to prevent being squeezed by teams who park the bus.
Give it time.

Fucking right we can moan, that was a shocker of a performance tonight.
That felt like a Gerrard esq game.

Tactics, performance, attitude, substitutions, game plan. Stinking tonight.
We got what we deserved, dropped points.

The tactics were honking, we gave them all the ball in the hope we could hit them on the break. Sitting back against that muck isn't good enough.

I hope the manager does well but it’s early days and the bravado about him was in my view rather OTT. Let’s see how it goes but I found it odd that he was not with a club. Tonight he was very naive in my opinion but then I’m not a coach.

Come on tae France, there is no getting away from the fact that that was honking tonight and needs sorted
I'm not being payed to implement tactics. Anyone who watched the game can see how it was played. Almost identical to how we played at Tynecastle, except we created far less tonight and didn't have a 2 goal lead. It is clearly a tactic that Gio is deploying.

I'm the first on here to concede how terrible we were but the truth is that result wasn't "coming". We were on a real roll and quite possibly could have all but wrapped up this league before the enforced break.
