Lyon are clearly a better team than us, but all the same I felt we should have done better than we did.
The concerning start to the season that sees us rooted to the top of the table.There’s no shame in losing against Lyon.
The toothless manner of the loss and the concerning start to the season concerns me.
Jesus ChristDefended well Tonight, just too many off it going forward.
One decent strike and one OG. Don’t think we played badly, but we had 2 gears to go up. Lyon are a bunch of diving pricks.
I thought soWow. Truly disappointing night. Negative right from the team sheet.
Getting beat 2-0 in a midweek KOAlways so embarrassing how empty the stadium is before the end of the game
This is a bit ridiculous, tonight was always going to be a very difficult game but we weren’t embarrassed.We're not as good as what we think we are at this level
Correct.They've defended well and capitalised on 2 mistakes. We haven't played well. It's hardly the end of the world.
Hard to get into a match in last 20 minutes when already 2-0 down and rest of team running out of ideas. Lyon knew how to nurse the match to conclusion and weren’t likely to give us much space up front as they simply didn’t need to. If Lyon were 1-0 down then players like Roofe and Wright would have had more chance to make an impact.Scott Wright has been hopeless since he came on.
Miles off it.
My MOTMBalogan had a good game.

Getting beat 2-0 in a midweek KO
Can't really blame folk for leaving a bit early
I've often thought that myself, doesn't create many or score. We already have players in midfield who pass, pass, pass. We need a goalscoring midfielder.Flat as a pancake on the pitch and in the stands, we are a shadow of the team we were last season, 4th defeat already this season, and I said it at the weekend Kamara is lovely and tidy, but produces no goals, no assists, he has to do far more.
Folk might laugh at that but a full Rangers team on form could do that no problem.We'll win 2-0 in Lyon
I know the whole Joey Veerman speculation has been done to death but I think we desperately need a player like him tonight and the board not speculating to accumulate has come back to bite us at this level. Let’s hope Bacuna can bring something different.Not a good look, stadium emptying fast. Slow moving forward has been the problem since pre-season. We need an attacking midfielder with pace. I'm sorry to say that Davis is a big part of this issue.
Definitely need a new clutch.No we didn't. Clearly we can play better, but based on THIS season, there are no more gears.
McGregor was no busier than your average SPL game, we are still way below our level, I didn’t think Lyon were any great shakes in the same as I thought we made Slavia look good last season…We are not close to our level yet!That always appears to be the case when you play better teams.
Cheating lady's front bottomBTW that incident in the corner where Denayer just hit the deck a yard away from the referee was fucking infuriating.
Its the same issues each game though mate. Why cant the squad lift theirselves? Its our anniversary year, it was a chance at CL, it was a chance to show a top team who we are but...... Just bang average from us. Last season we took games by the scruff of the neck and forced our point. I dont see that in us so far this season. We move on thoughAye, though there were quite a few moments in the first half I thought. 2nd half was a non event.
Like I said I'm not happy with a defeat and we should always learn lessons on how to improve, but this wasn't a bunch of donkeys.
I was a lot more pissed off about Malmo than this.
St Johnstone worth the same as a set meal oot the Indian. Still put us out a cup. Value ain't the be all and end all.Rangers worth £93 million
Lyon worth £313
According to Transfer Market but aye…We should be beating sides like this according to FF…
Anyways…Onto Motherwell on Sunday now!! 3 pts a must.
