Gio's Subs

[prenzlauerbear]

What was he trying to do there? Anyone?

We were being outclassed but that just compounded it. The players looked like they had no idea either.

Zero shape. A complete mess.

A good effort overall nonetheless.

 

[julian candy]

What should he have done? Morelos had to be taken off.

 

[weefree]

We have no strength in depth, just a fact sadly

 

[km_2083]

He tried to go for it to get a draw , sh!t happens, dodgy first booking for sands that cost us

 

[Xtal]

His subs are shite and have been for ages.

Incredibly negative manager who often picks the worst option from the bench.

Doesn’t make much sense as there’s times like Roofe v Aberdeen where he does it when nobody else would and it works so well.

 

[RFC56]

Don’t know why he took tav off. As soon as he done we lost any kind of out ball we had on the right.

 

[Sandbear]

Zero shape. A complete mess.

The players he took off were dead on their feet,
Would you rather he had left them on so you could have accused him of running the, into the ground.
I thought it was pretty obvious from his substitutions what he was trying to do.

 

[TheScotty]

I’m not sure what he was trying to achieve.

Similarly I’m not sure what else he could’ve done.

 

[cuellarsbraces]

Kamara was absolutely garbage tonight. Directly responsible for the second and third goals.

Should be the end of his Rangers career now.

 

[Sandbear]

Don’t know why he took tav off. As soon as he done we lost any kind of out ball we had on the right.

You don’t know why, when he has had an injury, really?

 

[alvin_kirkwood]

Kamara was absolutely garbage tonight. Directly responsible for the second and third goals.

Should be the end of his Rangers career now.

Go and have a lie down.

 

[Craigie]

Not sure what you expected him to do in fairness.

Players were tiring. Morelos was starting for the first time since March and could have been sent off.

I assume Tavernier needs "managed" though looked more like himself tonight.

What we do need is the international break to get players back to fitness and others up to speed.

 

[chilebear]

Zero shape. A complete mess.

Going down to 10 men hurt us, He had to bring on a defender, he had no choice.

What speaks volumes for me is that not one new signing started that match tonight

 

[surfbear]

Don’t know why he took tav off. As soon as he done we lost any kind of out ball we had on the right.

Booked and pushing up could have got second yellow caught on the break

 

[prenzlauerbear]

What should he have done? Morelos had to be taken off.

Don't think they actually knew what to do by the end.

It was a weird, shapeless mess.

 

[Clementime]

Kamara was absolutely garbage tonight. Directly responsible for the second and third goals.

Should be the end of his Rangers career now.

He can not play DM, we've know it for 3 years now.

 

[julian candy]

Don't think they actually knew what to do by the end.

It was a weird, shapeless mess.

What should he have done?

 

[cuellarsbraces]

Go and have a lie down.

Sorry, Kamara was good tonight? Being outmuscled for the second and giving it away for the third.

I think you need to reevaluate who needs a lie down chief.

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

Morelos again couldn't be trusted.

Jack only has 60 minutes in him.

we were down to ten men and still trying to get something out of the game.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

Awful subs Jack and Davis had to stay on he should have put on a quick player upfront when he subbed Morelos.

 

[tomvallance1983]

What was he trying to do there? Anyone?

We were being outclassed but that just compounded it. The players looked like they had no idea either.

Zero shape. A complete mess.

A good effort overall nonetheless.

He took off Alfie who would have got a red. He tried to rescue a point at the risk of losing more. It didn’t pay off but at least he tried

 

[Albertz82]

The manager did well, as did the team. We were beaten by a better side and some bad luck. take the positives 100%

 

[julian candy]

Morelos again couldn't be trusted.

Jack only has 60 minutes in him.

we were down to ten men and still trying to get something out of the game.

Harsh about Alfie. He worked like a trogan. Napoli are a serious outfit. We done well until we were down to 10.

 

[tomvallance1983]

Awful subs Jack and Davis had to stay on he should have put on a quick player upfront when he subbed Morelos.

A quick player? Like who? Matondo came on

 

[Portadown_Bear]

Morelos is absolutely crucial to how we play.

There’s no one to hold the ball up when he’s not there.

 

[Captain Black]

What should he have done? Morelos had to be taken off.

And that's a fact .

 

[DavieM]

I think he made a point with no new signings starting. He was always going to use the bench and let's be honest we were just using the fresh legs type of subs.

Squad is a disgrace - what can you expect at this level?

 

[weetam3106]

Thought our starting team played very well. Totally weakened by the subs. Tav going off was bizarre. Glad we turned up even though the result suggests otherwise.

 

[Let’s Gio]

What was he trying to do there? Anyone?

Zero shape. A complete mess.

Seemed he was attacking and positive & in a way I am pleased to see that as a lot of the team he is negative and defensive.

Tried to nick an equaliser maybe but for pens and kamara we maybe weren’t far away?

 

[Arlo]

Kamara is so frustratingly laid back.

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

Harsh about Alfie. He worked like a trogan. Napoli are a serious outfit. We done well until we were down to 10.

Its also true, he was one more foul away from getting bagged and all the effort he had put in would have been forgotten.

 

[Lowrydrup]

His late game tactics where woeful. Team fell apart. Good effort until sands was off.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

A quick player? Like who? Matondo came on

Sakala would have offered more, I said upfront not a winger.

 

[wilso10]

Should have moved Lundstram into CB and Tav RB when Sands goes off.

King coming on for Jack kinda killed the game IMO, any chance we had of keeping possession in the middle of the park was gone at that point.

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

His late game tactics where woeful. Team fell apart. Good effort until sands was off.

he tried to get something from the game fucking hell!

what you want lose 1-0 and shut up shop or at least try and go for it?!

 

[ssblue]

He left us with a back 3 including an 18 year old and a full back, 2 wingers, a CAM and a CF.

At 1 nil we still had a slim chance, those subs left us wide open to a doing and it could have been more.

Brave for trying to go for it or stupid as last thing we needed was another pumping?

 

[Sandbear]

Awful subs Jack and Davis had to stay on he should have put on a quick player upfront when he subbed Morelos.

Jack hasn’t got 60 mins in him never mind 90 plus. Fûck me he can barely get above an amble.
Matondo is quick.

 

[Azzurri]

There is laid back and not giving a %^*&.

 

[prenzlauerbear]

What should he have done?

Would try and have got Arfield through the 90. Matondo is a complete waste of time at this level currently. Maybe he will come good, but thats for another day.

Would be asking Jack to try get through 90 as well. I think he could.

It's not so much the subs, more the shape when they came on. Tilman and Kamara genuinely looked lost. Like they had no idea what they were supposed to be doing.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

Morelos is absolutely crucial to how we play.

There’s no one to hold the ball up when he’s not there.

The problem is his finishing and lack of commonsense he was lucky not to get sent off.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

Jack hasn’t got 60 mins in him never mind 90 plus. Fûck me he can barely get above an amble.
Matondo is quick.

He's not done anything of note yet Sakala would actually offer more upfront.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

What was he trying to do there? Anyone?

We were being outclassed but that just compounded it. The players looked like they had no idea either.

Zero shape. A complete mess.

A good effort overall nonetheless.

Game was done, Tav needed off as he's carrying an injury, Morelos needed off before he got a red card. Rest didn't matter.

 

[julian candy]

Its also true, he was one more foul away from getting bagged and all the effort he had put in would have been forgotten.

No, I agree. But nothing to do with trust.

Just shows you how people see it differently mate. I thought Arfield was struggling and gave it away for the first penalty. I wanted him off way before. But he does get close to Alfie. We need a 24 year old Arfield and Davis!

 

[Avalonpark]

The sending off was the turning point, and after the subs it all fell apart and was shambolic.

 

[Rendo74]

Who does he bring on?
Wilson been in the job almost 3 years, 6 transfer windows and only 2 of his signings started tonight.
Gio not blameless but no real progress / improvement from recruitment.

 

[alvin_kirkwood]

Sorry, Kamara was good tonight? Being outmuscled for the second and giving it away for the third.

I think you need to reevaluate who needs a lie down chief.

He’s had a mare but career over??

Just can't take young Matondo seriously at this level. Bizarre sub imo. The big Uruguayan brick shithouse who came on for them is on another planet in terms of physicality.

They are fkn huge. Reckon they'll batter Ajax aswell. The Georgian lad lol. He's a different level.

 

[ItsInTheNet]

Lundstram should never have been pushed further forward. Having lost Sands to then move Lundstram out of the back line was just madness and we paid the price.

 

[TNT]

We were 1-0 down at home - and he tried to go for it.....

I have no issues with the subs.

You do have to ask questions about Ben Davies though.
