Match Thread Rangers v Aberdeen - 15:00 Saturday - RangersTV

[ca100]

Good to see Ridvan is fit and has kept his place. Rest of the team is as expected really. A real lack of alternative options when you look at what is on the bench.

 

[Boab4]

No surprises with the team, real lack of anything attacking on the bench though.

 

[G74Bear]

Frightening front 3

 

[.k.k.]

L S D up front

 

[Sam English]

C'mon the Rangers.

Get tore right into these bastards.

 

[BlueArmada]

Got to imagine that apart from Borna/Ridvan that'll be the line up for the next 3 games (excluding any new injuries of course).

 

[Samod85]

Bench very poor , very little options

 

[Macdonsj]

Bench very poor , very little options

Raskin, cantwell,.danilo, roofe, dowell and lawrence out
Makes a massive difference

 

[Skunkworks]

That’s a strong starting on paper just need them to get the finger out. The bench is really weak so not many options to change it if needed

 

[Super-Swally]

Must win against dolly at home today.

Anything else is completely unacceptable.

Not that we should be looking elsewhere but added bonus to the weekend if the Paedos drop points against Motherwell.

 

[Tpol_rfc]

Need Cifuentes to really show up today instead of trying to cling into "he had a few ok passes"

 

[LyonGer]

Good to see Ridvan starting again. Hopefully Wednesday night is a boost to his confidence.

Team picked itself really from who is available

 

[Northampton Lodger]

Three of our best young players on the bench. Would be great to see than all get on after we go three up.

 

[giogaddi]

Happy to see Ridvan retain his place!

 

[LyonGer]

Happy to see Ridvan retain his place!

I loved how he was up for the free kick not long after his goal.

Right Tav, move over I'm taking it.

 

[Marlo Stanfield]

Into these mutton molesting bastards Rangers. No excuses

 

[Ambiorix]

That front 3 is grim reading, but we don't really have any option.

 

[Highland Gers]

Lack of pace in midfield in that line up is frightening. Hopefully they can dominate possession and make that not an issue

 

[Tino_Col]

Frightening front 3

This is where Beale decided to spend all his budget. They should be blowing away Aberdeen at home. Let's see. If they do, it will be coming out of the blue.

 

[gilf]

Show the right attitude and get in their faces from the start.

 

[ForGodForCountryForever]

All that money and deals, basically no game changers off the bench.

Pitiful.

 

[BigBlueAngus]

Glad Ridvan makes it after going off, deserves to start again.

Otherwise I don't know what else we could change. Not the game to start Rice and the bench shows how ravaged we are with injuries.

We need to be aggressive and press the shit out of their defence. I'm not buying this "resurgence" pish, they've beat Ross County twice and didn't get humped when playing 10 men in defence against Frankfurt. Aye, very impressive.

I think we'll win 2-0 fairly comfortably. The ref will do his best to help their antics but we're used to that.

 

[Traveller]

Middle to front looks really sub-standard.

Looking at the bench and therefore who's actually available, it's about the best we can go with. A case to be made for Barisic over Yilmaz, but I don't think the defence will be the problem today so that's not really the issue.

 

[Liviger1984]

Raskin, cantwell,.danilo, roofe, dowell and lawrence out
Makes a massive difference

And Matondo

 

[Clay Davis]

It’s all we could go with.

Happy Yilmaz starts again.

 

[Potnbear]

Pipe band just marched into NEH lol

 

[Solarstone]

Frightening front 3

In a good way?

 

[Sam English]

Our bench looks so weak.

 

[Solarstone]

[Tino_Col]

I don't recognize much of that Aberdeen side. Why isn't the fella Duk playing?

 

[Brian the Blue]

Is Souttar out of favour or not fully fit, he’s getting splinters the last few games?

 

[Boab4]

Davies has been much better.

 

[GrandBelial]

Good to see Ridvan's injury wasn't serious.

Dessers, well he needs to show it today, if not then I'd have almost anyone else in there instead.

 

[Boab4]

I don't recognize much of that Aberdeen side. Why isn't the fella Duk playing?

He’s on the bench, was on the bench the last time I saw them play too.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Davies is playing the better of the two. Simple really.

 

[BigBlueAngus]

Looks like a 5-4-1 to me, think that's what they played in Germany. Honking.

They signed a bunch of giant defenders in the summer so I hope we're not resorting to hopeful crosses all day.

Very lightweight up front so we’ll need the midfield to chip in with goals I would think.

With Barisic not playing it reduces the chances of this significantly.

Maybe today is the day.
Dessers 9/2 for the first goal

 

[Sticky Fingers]

Beat these sheep bothering irrelevant filth today, and beat them fucking well Rangers.

Please.

Thanks much. X

 

[vinnie]

We really are short up top atm! You can tell who the 5 subs will be already.

Against this mob, on the cup final, I’m not even looking for impressive football. Just win please Rangers.

 

[Bromp Carlisle]

L S D up front

Hopefully it results in more creativity.

 

[Gheorghe_Hagi]

So much money spent in the summer for our bench to be practically barren after two months. If we're struggling for goals today our options on the bench are Scott Wright and 17 year old Zak Lovelace.

 

[Kinghornloyal]

Our bench looks so weak.

Yes with 6 injured players it will always look weak.

 

[Hagigoal]

Not match related as such, but Motherwell are playing well…be interesting to see how Gollum refs the last 5 minutes

Wrong thread for this

We've spent a fortune on forwards and are incredibly in a position where the manager is not only reliant on Roofe but amazingly bemoaning Roofe not staying fit.

Considering if it had stayed 0-0 we would have had a great chance to close the gap

Why have we started wearing suits before games? I remember Beale saying it would be happening when he first started as manager but it didn't really happen after that.
