MOTM Poll Rangers v Benfica - 20:00 Thursday - BT Sport

[RoofeIsOnFire]

The linesman is a shambles

 

[Thesuperger]

We were absalout class for 70 minutes and needed fresh legs, their manager spotted it and stuck some subs on, ours never reacted!

 

[charlie_snowball]

Squeaky bum time.

 

[Bordeaux]

At times, we still show our inexperience at this level. We’re still growing and maturing as a team, still ahead of the curve!

 

[cornholio]

Based on some of the reactions here I'm glad there's no crowd

 

[BrooklynBlue]

For all that Gerrard looks to have learned a lot of lessons this season, the lack of subs at 86 mins in a European match is criminal and inexcusable. Absolutely ridiculous and lets hope it doesn't cost us even more than 2 dropped points. When will he learn?

I see it'll be a night of reasonable analysis...

 

[blue barney]

They’ve brought on fresh legs , it’s been the difference

 

[BigTinder86]

Can’t get over this no subs thing.

 

[Leif Erikson]

What a fucking goal to put it simply.

It’s a good job the spl teams are rubbish as we just turn to mush once we are put under pressure

In the politest possible terms - stop talking shite. Did we turn to mush when all looked lost 2-0 down to Braga?

 

[Azzurri]

We could also win it

I know, just being nervous.

 

[tazzabear]

Referee is definitely Scottish.

 

[Stella_Bear]

Cannae cope right now.

 

[Govanx]

Sorry but Goldson shit himself for that second. Could have taken one for the team and let the ba' hit him instead of ducking.

 

[CoopBlue]

Do not f.uck this up even more!!!!!!!

 

[fmp]

Got that myself mate

The in-play keep screwing up and showing Rangers scoring from a goal kick. It's done it at least 3 times

 

[Sir Walter’s Warriors]

Linesman shocking, may have contributed to costing us this

 

[RoofeIsOnFire]

Missing not having Jack on the bench to take Davis or Arfield off as they are just seeing their players ghost past them

 

[Damsidebear]

The officials are getting worse.

 

[andrewmont1]

for the morons blamin gerrard and screaming for a sub.

what change do you make?

Legs mate legs

 

[Nachoman10]

Wtf is going on with these arsehole officials

 

[Mr Wilton]

Kamara has been excellent tonight.

 

[DJ Blue]

How the feck is that foul

 

[Bornathepostman]

That linesman is absolute shite

 

[jweebear]

Subs should have been used 15 minutes ago shore up midfield and defence.

 

[devilman]

Midfield knackered and struggling and some on here think Gerrard is right not to make a sub. Dearie me.

 

[blue barney]

Christ that ref saw that foul from the other end of the pitch but ignored the foul on Tav

 

[Duranman]

As good as Benfica are it's situations like this that still make me worry about the run in when the pressure is really on. I actually cannot believe Gerrard hasnt made a sub. Our front six are dead on their feet

 

[Fitba Juice]

Leige score 2-1

 

[SouthLDNBear]

Give yourself peace.

Aye it was magic youre right

 

[BenVorlich]

The intensity Gerrard is asking these players to press with is not compatible with no substitutions.

That’s just common sense.

It’s a worry that we may burn out these players come the new year.

 

[Thesuperger]

Goldson and Tav back to 2018 tonight.

Gerrard doing them no favours by not putting some fresh legs on to support them

 

[Balogun1]

These officials have cost us the game.

Absolutely no excuse for not awarding the penalty.

 

[Mendieta]

Not exactly a confidence booster for guys on the bench.

 

[Jjbscotty]

Liege just won it as well

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Based on some of the reactions here I'm glad there's no crowd

Sometimes I forget why that match threads get such a bad reputation on here but the drama queens have reminded me tonight.

 

[Super-Swally]

After such a great team performance and a tremendous 2nd goal we can't see this out?

Why does SG not make at least a sub? Tired legs out there who have given their all. Poor from Stevie there!

 

[Cutty/Young]

Gerrard making the exact same mistake he made in the other game against them, never changed anything and he's done the same again tonight, should have closed the game down in the last few minutes over there and done the same tonight,the game was won at 2-0 and sat and done nothing.

 

[Stella_Bear]

How long left?!

 

[Sherbet Dab]

Said it earlier linesman and the ref are fucking atrocius

 

[TN8]

Disappointing but not the end of the world.

 

[rangeral]

Liege have made it 2 -1

 

[sofakineazy]

Nearside linesman is bent

 

[Rooster]

Feels like a loss

 

[wilso10]

You just knew there would be a game when the loonytunes asylum on here would start to lose their sh*t.

Don't think anyone could have predicted it coming at home to a top class European side.

 

[pelem]

Fuukin mentally challenged supportin stand side linesman.

 

[Get yer Macaroon Bars]

As if we have some devine right to beat Benfica, lol

Proud of the team tonight no matter what. They're a Champions League team, no doubt.

Better game management and we would have

 

[Moz]

It’s one of those where you’d have taken it before the game but the nature which it came about is so shite

 

[DoubleWhopper]

There will be hysteria from the usual suspects on here....

But two draws from these games is a creditable result in the final analysis.

Some of Benfica’s passing and movement is excellent. They’re a team which is a level slightly above ours.

We’re doing well to hold our own

 

[tazzabear]

Legs mate legs

Isn’t answering the question.

 

[jweebear]

We blew this again
