MOTM Poll Rangers v Ajax - 20:00 Tuesday - BT Sport

[Bryanmc]

Morelos the worst miss in Champions League history ? Tragic.

Geez peace you only have to look at last week to find a worse one

 

[LJ50]

You’re assuming the board will invest in the team.

They made more money last season in Europe than they will this season and look at how little was invested in the summer window.

Where has the money gone?

Wages. Inadequate signings. It takes two minutes to look at the last few years accounts and understand our financial reality.

We spend what we had this summer, or earmarked the large majority of it (Tillman and Sands). We just didn’t spend it particularly wisely. No one can look at the Champions League campaign and think we get value for our spend on players and wages.

 

[CaliforniaBlue1872]

9-1 agg vs liverpool

6-0 agg vs Napoli

7-1 agg vs Ajax


Least we have Edmiston House joining the squad to bolster us in January for the run in

Dont forget we fixed a roof too

 

[Clementime]

Morelos the worst miss in Champions League history ? Tragic.

Matches our run.

 

[Macky]

How many goals does Morelos have in Europe this season and how many does Colak have?

You would honestly want to see Morelos after that miss again tonight.

How many minutes have both played in Europe?

100% Morelos should be starting these games yes. Colak barely touched the ball whereas Morelos won us free kicks, held the ball up and forced their keeper into an error that he should have finished.

 

[Discombob]

Yet he still does more than Colak against tougher opposition. Colak has barely touched the ball for the full Champions League campaign.

Morelos should be starting these games and Colak domestically

Colak (and Tillman) got us into the Champions League, while Morelos was getting himself dropped from the squad for a pointless red card.

And we''ve paid the price more than once for Morelos' lack of sharpness that stems from that - including tonight!

 

[Cullybackey]

maybe the 19th Century Terrorist cabal keeping Scottish football as a little above pub league level is a blessing in disguise.

No surrender ever bears

 

[Michael Mols]

Feels like that sense of relief you get when a funerals over

 

[Mustbeadolphin]

F%"k me officially the worst ever team to participate in the CL. Where do we go from here?

 

[Georgethegersfan]

Well done the fans

 

[WinkieWATP]

You’re assuming the board will invest in the team.

They made more money last season in Europe than they will this season and look at how little was invested in the summer window.

Where has the money gone?

You miss the word hopefully?

I remember being excited who we would bring in after beating PSV. Thought we would invest £10m or so into first team players and we did heehaw

 

[SDF]

Like that time I went to see Rocky V in 1991, this Champions League campaign was eagerly anticipated for years but turned out to be staggeringly bad and by the end Alfredo Morelos' sitter was the equivalent of Elton John's end credit song.

Fúck them both royally.

 

[Mr_Miscellaneous]

9-1 agg vs liverpool

6-0 agg vs Napoli

7-1 agg vs Ajax


Least we have Edmiston House joining the squad to bolster us in January for the run in

Heard Edmiston House isn't match ready and wont be until late in the season.

 

[MilanBear]

Well, back to the grind of SPL football.
Hopefully we can get some players back after the WC because we are really struggling.
Need to get rid of a few too

 

[ScrabsterLoyal]

That last 10mins has sucked the life out of me...I'm considering attacking the whisky but got work in the morning.

Get a wee cheeky one in to take the edge off, I am!

 

[TerrySilverLoyal]

Dont forget we fixed a roof too

I know how could we forget that how ungrateful

 

[Goldenboot]

He's not got it, the next David Bates

he is just a young boy. Its been unfair to drop him in these games. Blame lays at all the injured players the DoF has put to Gio. I hope King can put this behind him and be the player we all know he can be.

 

[Neilstonger]

Did you just miss him running back to his own box and making a last ditch tackle there, aye?

Anyone who thinks he's lazy is a moron.

He is a lazy useless kunt who will not be seen in a Rangers shirt next season. Last ditch tackle my arse.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

It was but Colak was shite in the first half.

But that doesn't make the miss any better.

 

[warfieldranger]

After the excitement of beating PSV, this CL campaign has been dismal.

Only hope we learn from it, but there's been no sign of us learning during the games..

 

[TynesideTrueBlue]

Get off his back ffs

He’s out his depth mate it’s reality

 

[Chris the Bandito]

I honestly don’t know what we expected with no defence and no defenders.

We’ve been utterly destroyed with injuries at the back and in midfield.

All I can say is thank f*#k this season’s European campaign is now done.

Indeed.

Most years we have 4 central defenders in the squad and #4 doesn't get enough game time to justify being there.

We're 24 games in this season and options 5 and 6 are playing their 16th and 17th games already.

 

[Eddie Doc]

Well that’s up to you. I saw the draw and thought ffs we will be doing well to get a point there.

Did I think we would get the doings we did, maybe one or two not six times tbh

Your second point is what I'm getting at.

 

[ScotiaPapac]

Tav is struggling and Patterson would step in as the next generation at a quality level

He was/is too good to sit on the bench, and was never going to be here long term. We sold at the right time.

 

[Timetothink]

Played 6, lost 6, goal difference -20. Wow.

 

[BobbyShearer55-65]

Officially the worst performing team in the entire history of the Champions League.

Worse even than Viktoria Plzen who were in a Group with Inter, Bayern and Barca.

If Rangers hadn't bothered to turn up and had forfeited each game 3-0, we'd still have done better than we did.

Well done, Gio.

 

[ALADOU34]

Get the manager sacked tonight he is utter useless

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

How many minutes have both played in Europe?

100% Morelos should be starting these games yes. Colak barely touched the ball whereas Morelos won us free kicks, held the ball up and forced their keeper into an error that he should have finished.

Who got us to this stage?

Have you forgot how to answer questions again?

 

[Karky Madoolla]

Geez peace you only have to look at last week to find a worse one

That doesn’t suit the FF narrative of hating Morelos though.

 

[Kingwoody]

How did we go from Europa League finalists to worst ever team in the Chamions League, in six months! Disgraceful really.

Sold Bassey
Lost Goldson
Tav knackered
Mcgregor done

And that's just defence.
Add to that a complete lack of investment in the squad its not really that much of a surprise

 

[cm72]

Thank %^*& it’s over

I’m not buying we can’t compete pish when I see Leipzig Dortmund Frankfurt Porto cope comfortably

No with the amount of injuries we've had..are people forgetting this huge point?

 

[RangersLad1983]

Barasic is a truly awful defender

Absolutely no positional awareness

Our 2 full backs are rank they need hunted ,a new captain needed and new midfielders would be a start.

 

[Kirbys House]

Footballs like that.

I reckon Gio could drop a big shit on your living room floor & you'd still defend him.

 

[Clementime]

Don't talk pish ffs. Pedro was humiliated by a bunch of plumbers from Luxembourg. We've been beaten tonight by a better side whilst we have about 10 first team players missing.

Disappointing aye, but by no means a disgrace tonight.

I struggle to understand how that can happen tbh.

Something is very wrong.

 

[The Crimson King]

Wonder if anyone will ask Gio what it's like to be managing the team with the worst record in CL history.

Talk about injuries all you want, but there's been many, many teams with a fraction of our budget and better records. It's on him.

 

[TerrySilverLoyal]

Do us all a solid and sook basseys dick in the changing rooms and not in front of us after we’ve been embarrassed

 

[willieorwont_he]

I know this was brutal, and i hate to bring them up, but they are panicking because carter vickers is out tomorrow. How many defenders do we have injured? King is 18 playing at the absolute top level and being found out. He looks fantastic on Scotland IMO.
While this was a humiliating experience, the cards really have been stacked against us.
This is not an excuse for lack of fight, just a bit of perspective (even if you think its a shite one).

 

[TheScotty]

9-1 agg vs liverpool

6-0 agg vs Napoli

7-1 agg vs Ajax


Least we have Edmiston House joining the squad to bolster us in January for the run in

Won’t be ready mate.

It’s our until
Next preseason.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

I reckon Gio could drop a big shit on your living room floor & you'd still defend him.

Did you expect to top this group? This team needs investment and get rid of the players who are just going through the motions now.

 

[RangersLad1983]

Sold Bassey
Lost Goldson
Tav knackered
Mcgregor done

And that's just defence.
Add to that a complete lack of investment in the squad its not really that much of a surprise

McGregor is done agreed but Tav is not knackered just a poor player.

 

[exeterbear]

Scott Wright is like a dug chasing a chip poke in the wind. How can he continue to get a game, it’s a fucking joke

He works hard!

 

[Mr_Miscellaneous]

I take some slight joy in the fact Marseille just got knocked out of Europe with the last kick of the game.

 

[ElBufalo72]

Looking forward to trying to forget about European football for a bit, that campaign has left me fucking scunnered and depressed.

 

[BigBuff]

Heard Edmiston House isn't match ready and wont be until late in the season.

The new John Eustace

 

[Macky]

How many goals does Morelos have in Europe this season and how many does Colak have?

You would honestly want to see Morelos after that miss again tonight, it was embarrassing.

It’s actually amazing how much you defend Gio for absolutely everything even after countless embarrassments yet slate our all time top scorer in Europe.

Gio once again fails and it’s all Morelos fault

 

[Gremlins]

Been in since 11am?

Wish I’d stayed after that

 

[Johnny The Fox]

He’s out his depth mate it’s reality

He's a youngster and inexperienced, he would never have been playing without the injuries.

 

[Zizou]

Our only real goal tonight was to not be the worst champs league team in history and we somehow managed to fk that up.

From the highs of last year to this. Shambles.

Gio cannot be allowed to continue.

Would we have still been the worst team if we kept it at 2-1?

 

[Clementime]

Our 2 full backs are rank they need hunted ,a new captain needed and new midfielders would be a start.

He has never been captain material imo.

Never seems to stick up for his players in heated situations, he is too meek.

 

[Highland Gers]

We look a poorly coached team. No closing down, no press, lack of tackling and very little movement when we are on the ball….etc
We need a massive clear out starting with the management team
