MOTM Poll Braga v Rangers - 17:00 Wednesday - BT Sports

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

No Katic, Aribo or Kamara

Katic shocking at the weekend and Kamara has been off it a while.

 

[Mr Wilton]

Aribo before Kent I’d have thought.

Edit: in saying that I’d rather Aribo came off the bench to change things than Kent in their current form.

 

[instructor]

Selection looks fine to me with good options on the bench.

 

[brain]

Braga will press us relentlessly. They will get less joy out of Edmundson than Katic in that regard.

 

[TNT]

Not the team I would have picked. Still showing faith with non-performers.............apart from Katic.

And, leaves out a guy who has scored 2 in 2..............

I would even have put Aribo in Kent's position - or the other side with Hagi moving over.

 

[Chris01]

would have went aribo instead of Kent.

This.

 

[brain]

Aribo before Kent I’d have thought.

Yep. But we'll be hitting it long over the top so you can see why we've gone for pace.

 

[joseph]

Strong midfield considering - I think we are going for a high press to put their defence under pressure from the off.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Whats the bench?

Fod
Katic
Halliday
Aribo
Ojo
Stewart
Kamara

 

[Barbarossa]

Decent side.

Aribo will come off the bench

 

[Grei9]

Set up the way Kilmarnock do against us. hit them on the break. Let’s go

 

[Eddie Doc]

Aribo dropped hahahahahaha!

Fuks so funny about that?

 

[Coisty09]

Kent’s pace has evidently won the day in SG’s thinking.
We are evidently expecting to play on the break.

 

[Riquelme10]

Massive game for Edmundson tonight. Happy enough with the team, would’ve maybe had Aribo for Kent.

 

[Bob]

2-1 win

Arfield and Kamberi

 

[A Magician Named Gob]

Has Ojo been on the bench lately?

Haven't been keeping a close eye on the subs bench but noticed he hasn't really featured.

 

[Kirbys House]

No complaints from me with that XI.

 

[Casper Kent]

Fuks so funny about that?

It’s a comical decision. He was our probably our best player in the first leg and done well again on Sunday (one of few), yet is benched. Guy must be feeling pissed off and rightly so.

 

[Yeti_Hunter]

Has Ojo been on the bench lately?

Haven't been keeping a close eye on the subs bench but noticed he hasn't really featured.

Don't think he's made the last couple squads.

 

[bmac800]

Hope they can keep the early stages a bit tighter than last week

 

[Business_Bear]

No complaints about that line up really. Need a big performance from the lot of them!

 

[blutos]

Has Ojo been on the bench lately?

Haven't been keeping a close eye on the subs bench but noticed he hasn't really featured.

The scapegoat who was punished for being part of the seven.

 

[Hexham Blue]

If we sit back and try to contain, we’ll get done. Attack is definitely the best form of defence for us. The 2-2 that takes us through for me.

 

[Eddie Doc]

Kent’s pace has evidently won the day in SG’s thinking.
We are evidently expecting to play on the break.

No big surprise there. Be plenty of space in behind them, the longer the game goes if we can get ahead or keep it tight it will open up even more.

 

[Alex Venters]

Big call throwing Edmondson in.
Hope it comes off.

 

[hammer17]

There’s gunna be a lot of skinny bears tomorrow, %^*& me those steps

 

[JeffreySpaulding]

Big game to throw Edmundson into.

 

[Larky Derry]

2-1 win

Arfield and Kamberi

That would put us out.

 

[usbear]

Head say 3-1 them

Heart says 2-2

I’ll make a bold prediction Ojo will come on and have a say tonight

Their high line is perfect for his directness and pace but will only work if he has a pair of shooting boots on

 

[ferris72]

Could say a flo job

you could, but not in a primary school...

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Edmundson has made 7 appearances in all competitions for Rangers. His last game at Hamilton was poor.

Big gamble from Gerrard.

 

[Polar bear]

Risky playing big George. Come on the Rangers

Riskier playing Katic imo.

 

[Necro]

Kent’s pace has evidently won the day in SG’s thinking.
We are evidently expecting to play on the break.

Kent actually played well on Sunday, he deserves the start from that performance.

People will probably jump at me for saying that but it's true

 

[A Magician Named Gob]

The scapegoat who was punished for being part of the seven.

The seven what?

 

[Kingging]

Just because nobody has predicted it yet I'm going for 3 2 to braga and the bears go through on penalties

 

[Gruger]

Surprised at Aribo being on the bench. It might suit Kents pace tonight though when we hit on the break. Lets just hope he steps up! Will go for a nervy 1-1

 

[Joebones]

Massive game to throw Kamberi into, although left with little choice. Going to be doing a lot of donkey work without the ball.

 

[Polar bear]

would have went aribo instead of Kent.

Absolutely.

 

[AllyRFC]

Katic was extremely poor last game but i cant help but think its a big risk throwing big George in there tonight.

 

[Ranger37]

Aribo dropped hahahahahaha!

you seem smart

 

[Sam English]

Need the defence to be a solid unit for this game.

 

[brain]

Big game to throw Edmundson into.

To be fair it would have been a big game to let Katic play in too given his current form.

 

[ferris72]

That would put us out.

I've never seen a team winning 5-3 on aggregate being put out...

 

[BlueSeaOfIbrox]

Would've played Aribo.. other than that not a bad team.

Katic is done for I reckon

 

[56 ASAP]

Let's get the job done. C'MON THE RANGERS.

 

[Blue Tack]

Braga May be even stronger than they were at Ibrox on their home turf which will undoubtedly be better than ours at the moment ,I hope we don't take a pounding .

Lose an early goal and it’ll be 3 or 4 imo

I am SO pessimistic over this one ,don’t know why but I hope I’m so wrong and this gets flung back in my face

 

[Casper Kent]

you seem smart

Thanks. Hopefully makes an impact when he comes on again and then can rightfully ask the manager why he’s been dropped when others who have been consistently shite for weeks still start.

 

[WATP3006]

No Aribo is quite disappointing

Would have had him in for Kent.

 

[TNT]

Katic was extremely poor last game but i cant help but think its a big risk throwing big George in there tonight.

The problem is...........
Katic has a bad game - OUT!
Did the same with Edmundson after Hamilton.
What happens if Edmundson has a bad game tonight? He is alienating both of them for Saturday.

Yet, he stood by Tav going through a bad spell. He stood by Goldson. He is still picking Kent all the time.........

 

[Blutoe]

It’s a comical decision. He was our probably our best player in the first leg and done well again on Sunday (one of few), yet is benched. Guy must be feeling pissed off and rightly so.

Glad you find it amusing
