Loves a card, but a top ref.Italian whistler Daniele Orsato will be the man in the middle at Ibrox. He'll be assisted by Ciro Carbone and Alessandro Giallatini.
Sands and Lawrence will need to be careful.

Yes. Rangers cannot stream the game as they do not have the TV rights.Is BT the only option to watch the game as Rangers aren't streaming the game?
No, it’s almost the same, but given we are at home tonight then it’s a good stat to have and can give us a bit of confidence.Is ours any better?
3 points a must.
Wouldn't like to second guess Gio but I'm going to say there's zero chance of that midfield.McLaughlin

Go for their throats and win please Rangers.
Most def puts the cats amongst the pigeons with what the line up/formation is going to be now. Davis has bundles of experience in these games. maybe looking a calm head and for someone to put their foot on the ball and control itMany will have missed it but a poster with a decent record has said in the Davies/Sands thread that Sands starts (no surprise) and that Steven Davis starts (big surprise).
That will screw over virtually every suggested lineup in this thread LOL.
If he's on his game he brings a load of benefits, just as you describe. I worry, a little, about PSV having the pace to drag him about though.Most def puts the cats amongst the pigeons with what the line up/formation is going to be now.

In my honest opinion i would be really surprised to see him start considering he's only featured against Kilmarnock. I would prefer in such a high intense game someone with more match sharpness. I personally think it will be Jack as Kamara only had 18mins of football in 3 gamesIf he's on his game he brings a load of benefits, just as you describe.

Bit shit though if you pay for the full RTV package but no access to BT or whatever Stan Sports Australia is.Without sounding like a broken record, I am glad this is on BT / Stan Sports Australia - coverage is far better than RTV and feels more deserving of the occasion.
It's up there with Dortmund away 22, Parma at home 99, Bayern away 99 as the best. That 99 era was us at our peak in terms of being a quality European side. This current side has hit the height at least once, which is why I'm confident tonight. Probably kiss of death though!Best I’ve ever seen is play in Europe that night
great post as i have not seen PSV for years, so knew nothing about them. feel quite confident about tonight now, so if it doesnt go well- its your faultWatched their game against Ajax and the highlights from Monaco games and Go Ahead Eagles at the weekend. There's absolutely no doubt the majority of their goals come from cross balls from their wingers/full backs. 4 of their 5 goals at the weekend came from this.
De Jong is a huge threat in the air and they tend to work it wide and get the ball across goal at every opportunity, a bit like we do. It's not just De Jong though, they get lots of late runs into the box from the like of Til, Veerman and Simons.
Defensively they have a lot of deficiencies, their centre backs are not great ball winners and can get dragged out of position. Full backs often leave big gaps from roaming forward, and unlike us the centre mids don't tend to shuffle across to cover them.
For me, if we play our usual high intensity Ibrox European night way we're going to cause them lots of problems and probably restrict them to quick counter attacks. So important that Barisic and Tav along with the wide players limit the number of crosses coming into the box as defending them is probably our biggest weakness and their biggest strength.
Anyway, 3-1 the Rangers
in that case wee will skoosh it !!!Starting with the just 15 players mate, love it
Do you normally get European games with the full RTV package though?Bit shit though if you pay for the full RTV package but no access to BT or whatever Stan Sports Australia is.
I think if we go gung-ho they pick us off on the break. PSV are a very good team, with their main strengths in midfield and up front. Not sure we will want the game to be too open.How much difference do we think the 1st leg at home will make? Will we maybe start a bit slower as we are not looking to get a goal or two back/
I think we need to treat this like we are 2-0 down from the 1st leg again and really go after them from KO.
Nope. Qualifiers only. However, for the CL BTSports have exclusive rights to the Play-Off Round, which is a bit of a PITA.Do you normally get European games with the full RTV package though?
We need a two goal lead going into the away leg I'd say.How much difference do we think the 1st leg at home will make? Will we maybe start a bit slower as we are not looking to get a goal or two back/

I'm pretty nervous about it. If we don't win by 2 clear goals then it could get messy in the return leg.How much difference do we think the 1st leg at home will make? Will we maybe start a bit slower as we are not looking to get a goal or two back/

Paid for the monthly pass only to find the app doesn't run in Windows, which is a bit annoying.Is BT the only option to watch the game as Rangers aren't streaming the game?
Last couple of years no.Do you normally get European games with the full RTV package though?
I think we need a healthy lead for the 2nd leg though, so need to go after them.I think if we go gung-ho they pick us off on the break. PSV are a very good team, with their main strengths in midfield and up front. Not sure we will want the game to be too open.
I really don't think Davis will play, not at the start anyway.If Jack was going to play tonight, I doubt he'd have played the 90 on Saturday like he did - so that certainly gives the rumours of Davis starting some credibility.
That being said, Kamara would be the other obvious player in that role.
McGlaughlin, Tav, Goldson, Sands, Barisic, Davis, Lundstram, Lawrence, Tillman, Kent, Colak.
The BT app? Should be able to stream in the browser rather than the app.Paid for the monthly pass only to find the app doesn't run in Windows, which is a bit annoying.
That's what the Dhims will do the first time they come up against a team in the CL group stages. And we will all sit back and laugh as they get picked-off and humped.I think we need a healthy lead for the 2nd leg though, so need to go after them.
