MOTM Poll Dundee Utd v Rangers - 12:30 Saturday - Sky Sports

[billybluehat]

This is going to be a battle to get the points today. No cakewalks today.

Yes, that's the thing. We know teams double their efforts when the Rangers turn up but even moreso when we turn up as champions. Work hard, keep doing the basics and hopefully we'll be fine.

 

[thornhill bear]

Up our game and we win easy

 

[Jase]

Let's hope Stevie's injected a rocket.

 

[crookie_bear]

Quite a few players off form or having a slow start of this season.

 

[Raymondgers]

So Davis, in the form of his life as our deep-lying playmaker, you'd put as a number 10 just behind the striker?

Aye I get ya. Davis or lundstrum then which it would be Davis 1000 percent

 

[A1bertz]

Missed the first half just switched on for the 2nd kick off,Reading through a few posts it seems we have been very poor hopefully lift our game for the second half and get the 3 points we want.

Let's hope you tuning in changes things. We were very ordinary 1st half.

 

[Henrywatson115]

I think we will be hearing “your not Rangers anymore” for the next 150 years ffs.

had to.laugh at they tramps

 

[Todd The Prod]

Pretty even 1st half tbh.

Goldson is back to being a bombscare though. If he doesn't want to sign a contract, and it's affecting his play, he should be sold this window imo.

 

[The Golden God]

That was miles out. Same linesman as the first half ffs

 

[Jelle1880]

I think we will be hearing “your not Rangers anymore” for the next 150 years ffs.

Followed by 'Same old Rangers, always cheating'

 

[DEJA BLUE]

Our energy levels have to match theirs, they seem to be up for it much more than us and there's no excuse for not doing it.

 

[Mr Wilton]

Up the pace Rangers and shut them up!

 

[barrheadbear]

He was behind him...

Yeah by a matter of foot or two. We are all allowed our opinions, I thought it was a yellow, others believe it was a penalty.

At least some Bears will be happy that we have a controversial refereeing decision go against us should we fail to get 3 pts.

 

[wee bud's pit boots]

I think I'm 60/40 on the Mulgrew foul being a yellow. It's annoying but it's a good foul to make for them.

You have a point, but if that foul is made at the other end of the park we're still reading about it on Tuesday. Letters pages and phone-ins fully on point.

Anyway, we need Wright on to inject a different injection of pace. Also the wee knocks ons and passes just off the mark is frustrating.

BTW, the home fans could give St boo fans a run for their money. let's give them a reason to do so.

 

[Saturnblue]

Septic fans on twitter have picked up on Lundstram's pre-match comment about 'a few covid cases', he says it about the 1 minute mark in the below video:

[DavieM]

I hope the boss isn't blindsided by Lundstram and just plays him no matter how poor he looks. I fear that is what he will do, he's miles off the pace at present.

Midfield needs some urgent upgrades or it's going to be a tough season watching this grind.

 

[Jumpman]

Build up far too slow

 

[Born a Barras Hick]

No movement in front of the ball. Static and need to be showing more off the ball effort.

 

[Jase]

Need somebody attacking the front post there

 

[LetsGo]

Lundstram just needs to realise that this league isn't a canter and that he actually needs to put a shift in. Have faith.

 

[Gersman4]

That's better.

Clearly talking about Roofe and Aribo earlier last month, not now.

 

[Moz]

The defender was level with Morelos & if Alfie had took the ball to his right after leaving Mulgrew he'd have been able to get a shot off.

I think that too but I don't know the actual rule. If it's last man it's a yellow, if it's denying a clear goal scoring opportunity then probably red.

 

[AlohaBear]

I think we will be hearing “your not Rangers anymore” for the next 150 years ffs.

They'll be thinking it's original too! Heard this guff for 9yrs.

 

[The Golden God]

Lundstram runs like he's got steep toe cap boots on. Looks like he's towing a caravan

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Their players getting cramp already?
No wonder, they'll never keep that pace up!

 

[Helander]

The Grealish from wish.com is injured

 

[TerrySilverLoyal]

When you go onto wish an order a Jack grealish

 

[Mr Wilton]

Much better Rangers, keep it going!

 

[Peter Venkman]

The Dundee Utd manager looks like the Irish guy who won big brother years ago

 

[Crown_Defender]

Unlucky Tav but that's twice he has made the wrong decision. Should've put Kebt in both times.

 

[GR6Ger]

Connor MacLeod from the clan MacLeod?

Where Roofe and Aribo not isolating?

 

[thornhill bear]

Much better

 

[Macca]

Come on Rangers. Still think we’ll win fairly comfortably, just need to up the tempo.

There is nothing whatsoever to suggest this will be comfortable FFS

 

[CaptainCourageous]

You can see Davis getting frustrated with Lundstram whilst Davis is in possession. He’s also having to step up and cover Lundstram who’s getting constantly turned by Fuchs.

 

[HoboUK]

Are we starting this pish already?
New whipping boy 2 games into the season. It takes time to bed into a team.

We haven’t got too many playing well as yet. It will come. United are all full pelt in every area. They will tire and /or make some bad challenges.

He's come from England having played in the Championship and EPL, it's not the same as a foreigner coming to British football and taking time to settle/adjust.

He's looking every bit the player that was awful last season. OTOH I don't think he was signed to play much, we've again just signed players to improve the bench rather than challenge the 11

 

[baystatebear]

Lundstram is ponderous and cumbersome. Maybe he needs time to bed in but from what I’ve saw of him he doesn’t suit our style of play.

Lunstram was a midfielder in what was arguably the EPL's worst team - ie. a journeyman. I'm not sure what some folks were thinking we got when we signed him.

 

[Southsideblueblood]

If i was a fan of one of these diddy teams i’d be raging that they dont put that effort in every week.

You don't think we raise our game in Europe?

 

[ricksen24]

Lundstram runs like he's got steep toe cap boots on. Looks like he's towing a caravan

Looks like a Centre Half in midfield

Get him off

 

[SDF91]

I don’t think Lundstrum suits playing where’s he’s been asked to at this stage. He seems more suited to playing as part of a two with someone in front (like what we were doing last year with Aribo).

He needs time to settle, but we do need him to work it out quickly given we’re relatively short in that position just now.

Big half needed here.

 

[Carltonblue]

Has the look of one of our trademark 1 - 0 victories in which we specialised last season. At least I hope so anyway.

 

[Milger72]

Aribo is much better up top than in midfield.

You saying you'd rather have Aribo and Arfield than Aribo and Wright?

 

[Born a Barras Hick]

He w

He was sheffield uniteds best player a few seasons back, you don’t start most games in the EPL if your hardly a championship level midfielder so I don’t agree with you there, he just looks well off the pace and looks like he’s not had a pre season.

He’s meant to be a combative box to box midfielder but looks nothing of the sort.

Sheff Utd fans don't see him as a 'combative box to box midfielder'.

 

[Jumpman]

This is like a different team from last season

 

[Mac72]

Was that seriously cramp?

 

[StaunchEnclosure]

This is like a different team from last season

Calm down mate.

 

[Thor]

I think we will be hearing “your not Rangers anymore” for the next 150 years ffs.

Aye followed by “same old Rangers always cheating”

 

[Tino_Col]

It is like a typical game at Tannadice from the past.

We'll still have a meltdown if we drop points though I am aware.

 

[The Golden God]

Looks like a Centre Half in midfield

Get him off

Early days obviously but he doesn't look mobile enough for a Gerrard team.
