if we get beat but put up a fight, im hoping pedro and the team wont get slaughtered on here
Whilst i agree with this I would argue Dorrans has been almost as poor as Miller the last couple of games. I'm torn on who should start against them as I'm hoping that Miller will click into form eventually and that's just the game we all know he can do it in. Having said that we need everybody performing that day and Miller certainly hasn't been doing that.

We have too many players not playing well enough to step one for one game and beat a team who haven't lost in so any games. I just don't see it.
Stop Sinclair that's genuinely all we need to do, he's their best player & constantly gives us issues.
All we can ask is they stand and do their best. I fear for Morelos though.
Miller and Krancjar should be nowhere near the starting eleven on the 23rd if we're to have any chance of getting a decent result.
If we are winning, watch out for them & ref looking for any excuse to send one of our players sent off.
The team barring any injuries will be
Wes
Tav
Cardoso
Alves
Wallace
Windass
Dorrans
Jack
Candieas
Miller
Morelos
Wes
Tav Cardoso Bruno Wallace
Jack Rossiter
Candieas Dorrans Windass
Morelos
That for me would suffice, Dorrans is better further forward and his fight would be valuable although I would say on form he doesn't especially deserve to start, Rossiter is better in the holding role, Miller and Niko are f*cking useless.
We have a better defence than last season!
We have a better midfield than last season!
We now have a goal threat that we lacked and although accepting caution, I really believe we will beat beast fc by a couple of goals.
I agree 100% Niko shouldn't play and probably Miller but I've got a nagging doubt that he'd be the one to pop up with a goal or 2, I've not given up hope with him yet, we'll see I suppose.Have you considered the possibility that Miller is just no longer up to it and this is him playing as well as he is now capable?
If Miller and Niko play we'll be overrun - we have to give them something different to consider.
I agree with your point completely we are still light in midfield and Cardoso hasn't coped well with players running at him hopefully he gets it right against the bheggarsRight now he's got to make two changes; Kranjcar and Miller.
Three if you include the formation.
Far far far to sensible young man this will never catch on lolWe are all Rangers fans (well most of us, bolt lurkers!)
Of course we want to gub celtc, nothing better. We are also looking better then we have in a while squad wise. Not been perfect on the park yet but looks like we are starting to see improvements.
I am not setting myself up for a fall by predicting victories or getting carried away setting standards for performances, be they that of the players or the managers.
We are still very much a work in progress. I like the progress we are making btw and will go into this next game versus them with a quiet confidence. But i will also be able to absorb and digest a defeat if need be and take it for what it is at this point in our rebuild.
I am not going to corner myself into an absolute position about who must or what must be acheived, certainly not a fortnight before the game. That is early, even for on here!
I would bite your hand off for a scrappy 1 goal win deflected off anyone's erse right now.
We have scored first and still got beat. However, I think we need to score first to have any chance. I would bite your hand for a draw. They are better than us, let's not kid ourselves. If we can play to our best we can give them a game. I just think they will score as their front four are good. A draw is a good result and keeps the pressure on. Assuming things stand as they are.Imho we have to score first,ideally like the way we started against HIVS, if they score 1st it'll be business as usual from where they are concerned l,but if we start fast and score 1st, it'll be new territory for them and there fans and I think there arse would collapse
I'm flying back over from NYC for the game and I'm feeling good about it.
