Keep Believing!

[BigBassey]

We done it in Dortmund and PSV are on not too far off them but i believe we can do it in Eindhoven. Morelos will have a say in the 2nd leg but still happy with the performance bar Goldson, We can do this fellow bears.....

 

[albertz81]

We've never lost in Eindhoven.

Good record there, 2 wins and a draw.

Got to believe we can do it.

 

[Stuart_WATP]

I believe we're capable. Morelos needs to start in this game he is ruthless away from home in Europe. Although Big Colak was great tonight.

 

[1690]

This team love being underdogs, every reason to be hopeful.

 

[ShieldhallBear]

Agreed! No reason why some folk are negative in the other threads. They’re a really good, CL quality team and it was always going to be tough. Still 50-50 at halftime.

 

[Bumplittledipper]

Decent team but they are nothing special.

Keeper is a bomBscare.

Keep de Jong quiet and we are in with a shout.

 

[BlueMcLeod89]

There's still a pretty decent chance tbh, rangers always like to push it till the end

 

[Brahim Hemdani's Granny]

There isn't much between the sides. They'll be happier tonight but it's all to play for

 

[Lord Summerisle]

We’re still in with a really decent chance.

 

[madride]

2-2 is a fair reflection was a very even game with them probably edging the better chances.

Going to be a big ask but we can do it

 

[Barisic's Bandage]

We done it in Dortmund and PSV are on not too far off them but i believe we can do it in Eindhoven. Morelos will have a say in the 2nd leg but still happy with the performance bar Goldson, We can do this fellow bears.....

If Morelos doesn't get minutes he's not going to be fit enough to start. Uphill battle now as PSV look a bit better than us and they now have home advantage.

 

[Millger]

2-2 is a fair reflection was a very even game with them probably edging the better chances.

Going to be a big ask but we can do it

That's it we are far from out of it

 

[BigBassey]

There good a team but so are we but this is the level we need to beat if we want the promise land of the groups. Its a shame one of us has too go out as we a both proper champions league teams.

 

[Meo-meomeomy]

We more than held our own. Every chance the tie goes our way - and we’ve still to release The Buff!

 

[Malcolm Robert No 12]

Expected a worse result while hoping for a better one. We get up, we go again with the heads held high and chests puffed out - was like we have never been away from the Champions League tonight

 

[Michael Mols]

PSV favourites but anything can happen in a one off game and being underdogs probably suits us.

 

[laloyal]

Felt we were almost Non existent 2nd half .. looked tired .. little to no threat going forward ..

Not sure where Kent went 2nd half

Good team PSV they move the ball much faster than us ..

Fancy us for 2-1 though …

 

[Manc Bear]

Quick look on here and it’s the usual fanny’s talking absolute shite. Great game tonight, 2 good teams going toe to toe. The game is still 50:50

 

[Chief Rafferty]

We'll go through next week 2-1, Morelos and Colak with the winner, back in the big time, heard it here first!!!

 

[greigsdestiny]

It’s swings in their favour as they now have home advantage, but what we saw tonight tells us there is little between the teams & we are more than capable of still getting through this tie

 

[Azzurri]

We’re still in with a really decent chance.

Of course we are, if we drew 2-2away tonight we would still think it would be a tricky second leg.

 

[Cooper_11]

This tie in a nowhere near over. We are very capable of turning them over next week.
Gio needs to pick the right team and also use his subs better. Bringing on Wright and Kamara was very ineffective.

 

[Coatbridge Chancellor]

Need a Dortmund level performance.
A good side who will have an intimidating atmosphere.
Even a draw and get to penalties.

 

[Dalmuirbear]

We really need to work on attacking balls coming into our box in the coming week as they are very strong in that department and it’s becoming our Achilles heel.

 

[GalTribesman82]

Tav just now;
"We are Rangers Football Club. We play without fear"
He believes and we believe

 

[StaunchoPoncho]

Need a Dortmund level performance.
A good side who will have an intimidating atmosphere.
Even a draw and get to penalties.

F*ck that!

 

[Zwingli'sSausages]

Felt we were almost Non existent 2nd half .. looked tired .. little to no threat going forward ..

Not sure where Kent went 2nd half

Good team PSV they move the ball much faster than us ..

Fancy us for 2-1 though …

He had 2 on him for most of the game tbf.

 

[NSB]

Not a popular opinion, but not enough.

We needed to take a lead over there.

Is there a chance? Yes there is.
But being the cold, pragmatic bastard that I am, don’t see it happening.

 

[Bluethruandthru]

All to play for no question. We have more gears to find v this mob, mark my words

 

[spartacus]

We done it in Dortmund and PSV are on not too far off them but i believe we can do it in Eindhoven. Morelos will have a say in the 2nd leg but still happy with the performance bar Goldson, We can do this fellow bears.....

Morelos won’t be at the high level of match fitness by next week. If he gets on it’ll be as a late sub.

 

[Bangersbc]

After the last decade, still just enjoying being at the party.

Also, still in the tie. Nothing worse than a shameful dead rubber of a game to endure. We have it all to play for.

Question: did tonight add to the coefficient? Or is it just points to the victor?

 

[ronadamus_prime]

Evenly matched all round imo. We conceded two sloppy goals and Eindhoven fans likely feel the same way tbh.

We are missing something up top without Alfie, but Colak was immense, it's a pity Alfie doesn't play well with other strikers.

Also thought the subs were a wee bit on the negative side, especially given their keeper had just dropped a clanger and they were starting to look ropey. Felt we eased off a bit too much with Kamara and Wright coming on. Saying that Davis looked knackered but maybe a fresher impetuous in attack would have eased the pressure.

 

[yarrumdavid01]

Corners are a major issue, I thought this was a major plus for the big goalie?

 

[Zwingli'sSausages]

Disappointed with their second, but we are still in this. 50/50. Big performance next Tuesday.

Never write us off.

 

[RFC56]

We’re still in with a very good chance of progressing. Morelos and kent hopefully up to speed for second leg will improve our chances greatly as well.

 

[Laudrup is God]

It’s not over far from it but if we are honest we aren’t playing well enough or creating enough for me just now.

Midfield has zero balance and we just can’t work the gk enough just now.

 

[Fifty+five]

We’re still in with a really decent chance.

Correct. And personally I reckon. A tough game at the weekend is what we need.
Never a fan of postponing game to prepare especially when you need game time to gel.

Pretty confident.
They have not encountered some of the players we probably expected could push us on i. e Alfredo matundo and possibly Arfield.

 

[pollokparkloyal]

PSV will defo fancy themselves but I think if we left their stadium at 2-2 we would still be thinking it will be a very tough game at home.

Keep the faith.

Was a good game of football other than the goals we lost. Thought it was two decent teams going toe to toe.

 

[Loud and proud]

We will need to be at our best to win over there but we can definitely do it.

 

[DAS77Ibrox]

I think we are very much in it. Comparisons with Dortmund? Yes we need that clinical level but PSV look much more street wise than Dortmund who were very naive under Marco Rose. We can’t be negative or passive but it feels small margins decide it in Eindhoven. Set pieces must be addressed. Firstly three points on Saturday.

 

[cooperman]

don't think we've ever lost at their place have we? not that it counts for anything. we're still in the tie, against a good team, if folks think we'll no concede against these teams, they're living in dreamland, we're not at the level to completely dominate a team like PSV for 90mins and no concede, it'll be tough, but we all knew that, and that's how it turned out. we're still in the tie, and I'd have taken that before the game

 

[NorthLondonLoyal]

I think we can do it esp. if Morelos features

 

[Pentasa]

I'm feeling pretty positive I always feels Gio's tactics are far better when he is forced to be proactive and go out and win a game

I'd be more nervous if we were going out there trying to defend a 1 goal lead

 

[Fin-Ger]

Seen nothing in PSV team that would suggest that we should go there with negative tactics.

 

[Damask_Rose]

We've seen this team pull it off in Europe time and again. We can do it.

 

[NJA]

They are a decent team, full of players in the €4m-€6m range, with a few superstars in there.

We have overcame more from better. We can win. They have a bang average defensive line, the goalkeeper of theirs is a riot.

 

[Valleyloyal]

Decent team but they are nothing special.

Keeper is a bomscare.

Keep de Jong quiet and we are in with a shout.

I don't think that's the way to spell bombscare

 

[Bumplittledipper]

I don't think that's the way to spell bombscare

You missed a full stop.

 

[Diehard]

I don't think that's the way to spell bombscare

Is it not bomb scare?

 

[Sasa-]

They're a good team but I saw enough from us to feel positive.
