Hopefully Gerrard can find a formation that suits all 3.It’s just that Arfield isn’t losing his place so in the 4-3-2-1 only Kent or Ojo start.

Im assuming players will leave. I’m also expecting players in that have achieved something at a level higher than League One playoffs. Otherwise this is another hopeful punt season. That’s the reality. These guys have potential. We need winners.If/when those three sign, we will be up to about 35ish first team players. How big a squad are you expecting?
or we change it up every once in a while which the gaffer intimated e.g. 4-2-3-1, 4-1-4-1, 4-3-3It’s just that Arfield isn’t losing his place so in the 4-3-2-1 only Kent or Ojo start.
I felt Kent looked shoehorned in when playing centrally. He‘s best wide where there is space to use his pace.We need to get away from this idea that these players can only play wide.
A lot of players will leave. I'm expecting about 10 more players out.If/when those three sign, we will be up to about 35ish first team players. How big a squad are you expecting?
There is a lot of very average players making up that 35 that need to be shipped out.If/when those three sign, we will be up to about 35ish first team players. How big a squad are you expecting?

It's easier said than done. We still have legacy players from the Warburton and Pedro era that are on our books.

Tbf that includes our best players in tav and mo
The Polster one is strange, given we had Flanagan.We’re at 30 players just now.
Decisions need made on Polster, Docherty & McCrorie.
Alnwick, Herrera, Dodoo, Holt will be gone. Middleton & Hastie out on loan.
Vast majority of those legacy players now only have one year of their contract left. Should be a lot easier to get rid of now. The only difficult one will be Grezda imo.It's easier said than done. We still have legacy players from the Warburton and Pedro era that are on our books.

Dorrans and lafferty should be away as well mate
Would love to see him get a season fully fit with us! I know he gets a bit of stick on here but I rate Dorrans highly and he has the ability to score from outside the box, something none of the current midfield have.I heard Dorrans is absolutely flying fitness wise at the moment. He finished the season really well in the reserves and has been over in Dubai in recent weeks doing his own mini preseason before we start back training.
Dorrans is giving it everything. This is his last chance. Gerrard really rates him as well so he could surprise a lot of our fans if he manages to get a full preseason and up to full sharpness.
I absolutely hate assists being used as a meaningful stat.If the player has sway in the arrangement and has chosen not to go to Villa, who are back in the top league, then I can’t see why he would opt for Leeds in the Championship.
I’d definitely want to see Kent being more direct next season. For all the trickery that he shows, the goal tally was poor and assists not where you would want either.
It's the usual crap on here, guys had a long term injury so he's done.Would love to see him get a season fully fit with us! I know he gets a bit of stick on here but I rate Dorrans highly and he has the ability to score from outside the box, something none of the current midfield have.
The way Liverpool work it their playing clauses don’t mean they have to play, its entirely up to the manager of the club, it may cost a fee if they don’t hit it off, but if they worked it the other way round we’d pay a fee regardless.
Regardless of how many end up as a goal, he doesn’t get a ball into a teammate often enough given how often he is the one taking the ball into the dangerous areas around the opposition box. He was one of our main attacking threats down that left side last season but it didn’t result in enough chances or goals.I absolutely hate assists being used as a meaningful stat.
If he provides the chances but they're not converted, how is that in any way his fault?

I think he'll surprise people on here.
If we have the season we want to have, we'll play 60 games.or we change it up every once in a while which the gaffer intimated e.g. 4-2-3-1, 4-1-4-1, 4-3-3
Best thing I’ve read on here in a while. Really good player.I heard Dorrans is absolutely flying fitness wise at the moment. He finished the season really well in the reserves and has been over in Dubai in recent weeks doing his own mini preseason before we start back training.

Kent, Morelos and Ojo will be like the Mane, Salah and Firmeno of the SPFL. Come home Ryan and get your hands on some silverware
It’s just that Arfield isn’t losing his place so in the 4-3-2-1 only Kent or Ojo start.
We play 3 centre mids every week so at a minimum, we will be carrying 6 central midfielders in our first team squad this season. There isn't 6 central midfielders at the club better than a fit Dorrans, so he's more than capable of having an impact this season if his injury problems are behind him now.
He's a similar age to Arfield, people seem to forget that. He's hardly past it. He actually had a far better career down in England than Arfield as well.

I know, it's just that Gerrard didn't rotate much through our busiest time of the season and stuck rigidly to 4-3-3. Ejaria was undroppable. I'm sure lessons have been learned but I still think it should be Ojo or Kent not both given the number of Rangers owned players we have in the position and given neither are natural in the new preferred formation.We'll be playing 2 games a week until Xmas hopefully mate.
They'll all see plenty game time.
YasssssssRangers

I saw him in the last reserve game against Falkirk and he looked MILES off the pace. You could obviously tell he was a senior player but I'd have been expecting him to run the game from the centre of the park against a poor Falkirk side and he was nowhere near that level.
Fair play to him if he's been bursting a gut but I'm not sure just how intensive a preseason in Dubai looking after a mangled Ryan Jack is (that comment is partly in jest)
The proof will be in the next few weeks for him. He was a good player in his day and he's been massively unlucky with injuries (through assault by opposition players) since he came here. I don't see him ahead of a good few of our central midfield players as things stand.
To be fair, I don't think Ryan Jack was in Dubai with him so I doubt he would have been looking after him, only training.
Apologies, was that from the Spain trip?
Fair play to Dorrans if he's making an extra effort. I just can't see it given it's been two years now.
That’s literally the exact same words as the Chris Jack report.Anfield HQ on Twitter:
The move for Ojo will have no impact on the deal for Ryan Kent and Rangers remain firmly at the head of the queue to reach an agreement that will see the forward return to Glasgow for a second loan spell.
