Lafferty and Defoe doubtful for tomorrow.

[ICA_86]

From Twitter: Steven Gerrard says Jermain Defoe (hamstring) & Kyle Lafferty are doubts for Rangers game v St Johnstone.

What do we do?

Panic.

From Twitter: Steven Gerrard says Jermain Defoe (hamstring) & Kyle Lafferty are doubts for Rangers game v St Johnstone.

It will need to be Kent or Candeias up front as a false 9! Unless there is a youth striker we can throw in?

 

[Craigie]

Is this from our Press Conference?

 

[AllyRFC]

Fucking hell

 

[Skoosh1872]

Shite. If neither are fit I’m guessing we either play Kent or Danny up front or young Andy Dallas?

 

[J_H1872]

Panic.

Would you say it's time to crack each other's heads open and feast on the goo inside?

 

[SuperGers07]

Dapo Mebude withdrawn from Scotland Youths today. Into squad tomorrow apparently

 

[sregnar]

Wtf

 

[SuperGers07]

Shite. If neither are fit I’m guessing we either play Kent or Danny up front or young Andy Dallas?

Dallas is out on loan

 

[Bluenose1979]

Would we put Middleton in?

 

[Dbear 65]

Get Sadiq back!

 

[minder]

Shite. If neither are fit I’m guessing we either play Kent or Danny up front or young Andy Dallas?

Need to ask Morton if we can have him back first

 

[M@x]

Shite. If neither are fit I’m guessing we either play Kent or Danny up front or young Andy Dallas?

Dallas is on loan to Morton.

 

[SuperGers07]

Wtf

Defoe didn't train yesterday so I'd guess he's as good as out.

 

[Bluenose1979]

Why does it say Defoe's injury but not Laff's?

 

[Brave13VVV]

St Johnstone will just sit in tomorrow, could be a long afternoon.

 

[JayDee]

Shite. If neither are fit I’m guessing we either play Kent or Danny up front or young Andy Dallas?

Dallas is on loan at Morton.

But let's wait and see what actually happens.

 

[Bluebrox]

F.uck sake.

What's Defoe's injury ??

Edit: Just read hamstring. Fucking hell !!

 

[Jimmy Jazz]

Andy Newport reporting this on Twitter.

Lafferty looked to be running OK in yesterday's RTV training video. Didn't see Defoe now that I think about it.

 

[SOB-WATP]

Jesus christ.

Possibly a chance for one of the young boys to come in?

Tomorrows game just got a lot tougher if that's true.

 

[SuperGers07]

F.uck sake.

What's Defoe's injury ??

Hamstring issue

 

[The Lone Sniper]

Kent through the middle?

 

[cambridgeblue]

Dapo Mebude withdrawn from Scotland Youths today. Into squad tomorrow apparently

He's top drawer - better shout than Laff.

 

[adidasler]

Dallas is on loan to Morton.

Doing well apparently.

 

[londonbluenose]

Middleton doing the presser for tomorrow.

Probably be a front 3 of Middleton Kent Candeias which gives me the fear!

Must win tomorrow, id take a scrappy 1-0 right now!

 

[songsofglory]

Put a young lad in. Sometimes think we are too hesitant to play them.

 

[Kimarcus]

nooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[AllyRFC]

He's top drawer - better shout than Laff.

Didnt realise he was a striker?

Steven Gerrard reveals @RangersFC may be without Jermain Defoe and Kyle Lafferty for tomorrow's game with St Johnstone. Alfredo Morelos is suspended and Defoe (hamstring) and Laffery (calf) are now doubts. Dapo Mebude recalled from Scotland youth duty to provide cover

 

[the_baron]

Not his natural position but I think Middleton could be a consideration, if you watch his goals he's scored for us, they're comfortable strikers finishes.

I know what your meaning but stuff like the last line always makes me laugh. Obviously anyone in the right mind would take a 1-0 win Give me 1-0 scrappy wins right up to the end of the season.

 

[SuperGers07]

Would imagine Kent will play in the middle and just run at them

 

[MSF]

Middleton will start through the middle if thats the case.

One of the best finishers at the club.

 

[SuperGers07]

Keep and eye for the training pics later. There will be a session this morning

 

[Sebo1872]

 

[gobes1872]

Get Sadiq back!

i feel like reporting this message hahaha

 

[Partickger]

While a fit striker and our best player sits in the stand due to a ludicrous ban that should clearly have been overturned.

See how these things bite us on the arse? Still, well done on the club for staying silent.

 

[Themaruso]

One of them will play.. Fingers crossed

haha but i know i will moan my head off and stress myself out all afternoon with a tight 1-0 against them but aye any win will do!

 

[Amato Turn]

If they both miss out we're gonna have to play some wanky false 9 system then with someone like Arfield or Ryan Kent through the middle.

Something like:

McGregor

Tav Goldson Worrall Barisic

Davis Jack Halliday

Candeias Arfield Kent

 

[Macdonsj]

get Young-Coombes on a flight back as soon as todays game is over

Who's twitter? You sure it's genuine?

Yep very Composed finisher strong I'd have no issues playing him through the middle

 

[ricksen24]

Why tell them at this point.

Mental

 

[Leith Ger]

If they are both injured I'd play Middleton up front.

Fod
Tav Goldson Worrall Barisic
Davis McCrorie Arfield
Candeias Middleton Kent

Edit: Forgot McGregor suspended.

 

[wsb&warmy]

Can't see it anywhere, I'm calling bullshit.

 

[sw26]

Bit of a blow, but a front 3 of Kent, Candeias and Middleton could work.

Plenty of pace and trickery, might win us a penalty.

 

[bornabluenose]

Not a fan of the false nine but when needs must, either Kent or Midleton could play it in my opinion .
