Match Thread St Mirren v Rangers - Wednesday 16th - Premier Sports

[JerseyLoyalist]

Who’s on the bench?

 

[blue genes]

I like that team. Proper 6/8/10 midfield. Be interesting to see our shape.

Like Roofe and Itten up, would have been tempted to have both of them either side of Defoe to give Kent a rest.

Only surprise is to see Hagi not replacing Kent.

I would like Kent to do more for us this season & tonight would be a great night to reaffirm his class. They don't lose an awful lot of goals this mob, so I would like us to score first to settle us (I mean me) down...

 

[Jimmy Jazz]

Going for it. With only one out-and-out defensive mid starting I wonder if the full backs will be a bit more reserved.

Who’s on the bench?

Interesting language used here from their stadium announcer.

Quite shocked at that - disgusting. Take a look at his twitter feed aswell - clearly bitter.

Surely, he's a goner for that?

 

[Fothyman]

Big game for our midfield 3. Good to see Aribo back starting, hopefully picks up his early season form.

Very strong team and bench. Get the job done early tonight Rangers.

 

[Laudrup11_Legend]

Who’s on the bench?

McLaughlin, Defoe, Hagi, Davis, Kamara, Helander, Barisic, Patterson and Barker

 

[johnnylittle]

Good bench.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

Strong team, I think Zungu will do really well but I was hoping he would be in the middle with Kamara.

He started well, going through a quiet spell currently. Not sure how much of that might be down to overplaying. We have the squad depth for rotation and a rest could see him coming out of the blocks at Motherwell.

 

[RangersLad1983]

Indeed, I don’t think they’ll score. But they’ll be hard to break down.

3 of they games were against Aberdeen (x2) and away to Motherwell.

To be honest watched them on their TV station the other week and they looked woeful. But that's the famous last words as they say.

 

[Neilstonger]

At some point, and I’m not quite there yet, I will accept that we are too good for every team in Scotland and actually look forward to games. I’m on tenterhooks for a game we should win comfortably.

 

[ssblue]

5 Irishmen in the SM team.

 

[JW1988]

In Humzas Scotland it's arrestable language!

Don’t be daft! We aren’t a protected species remember

 

[bluehaddie]

One of our players will be dismissed as the black arts have started.
St. Mirren 1 Rangers 3.

We only need 9 players to beat St.Mirren in the League Cup.

Of course we are.

Tailwind...sort this out

 

[JW1988]

The ridiculous thing is, this is a game where you’d say “it’s a one off, go and win it” in any other country. In Scotland it’ll be “10 behind the ball and don’t lose”

 

[Arkanoid]

We only need 9 players to beat St.Mirren in the League Cup.

What a day! I'd have lynched the ref that day, then seen the reds back the next day. The abuse he took getting his medal at the end was poisonous, loved it haha

 

[DougieJones]

St Mirren will probably feel they can bully that midfield but I think they’ll be chasing shadows. How times have changed - 3 years ago a wet night in Paisley would be ‘a game made for Docherty or McCrorie’.

 

[OohAhHuistra]

On the bevy because we’re dynamite come on the rangers

 

[alex wright]

Not sure about the midfield myself, but it's a long season and rotation is essential. Think Rangers to win and both teams to score looks interesting now.

 

[Dumfriesbear]

He hasnt been for over 2 years.

 

[Dumfriesbear]

That job will be advertised soon then

No it wont.

 

[Once a BEAR]

 

[Chester Loyal]

Delighted to see Itten start.

 

[YoungGer97]

Ill go against the grain and say that this midfied trio is the perfect one for playing against low block SPFL teams.

A number 10 in Aribo as the fourth man in attack, a number 8 in arfield who will be box to box and a number 6 in Zungu who can hoover up everything going the other way and break the lines with forward passes.

Could replace Zungu with any of Davis, Jack and Kamara and get much the same thing out of them, just feel Zungu is more likely than the rest to up the tempo and pass it forward.

Delighted to see Itten get another start.

See my post before folk get worked up into a frenzy.

 

[Eighteen Seventy Two]

That team tells me we’re going all out from the off. C’mon Rangers!

 

[IrvineLoyal]

It must be a long time since we started a game without either Jack, Davis or Kamara starting

 

[IbroxForever]

Really good attacking team, love the way were going after teams this season.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Nice evening for a kick about.

 

[jamcl_jamcl]

I thought the game was tonight ?

Must have been shifted, I got a popup reminder yesterday evening that it was that it was on shortly.

 

[wilso10]

It's a strong team but I must say I'm surprised to not see at least Kamara or Davis starting in what is an increasingly important game to the fortunes of our season.

I'm not overly concerned because it still oozes quality, just a little surprised.

 

[Kilwinnin Bluenose]

Michael fucking Stewart! I despise that twat!

 

[Ta Phyra Loyal]

I've had to change my top, I forgot we are playing in our retro style top tonight. I'm going for 4-0

 

[Luthgibear]

Would have liked to have seen Kamara in beside Zungu to start with.

 

[Boab4]

Can't beat a few beers watching the Teddy Bears on your birthday.

Give us 5 Rangers.

 

[roffey]

Is this game available on RTV for holidaymakers? Sorry, I haven’t read the entire thread.

Yes.

 

[BrooklynBlue]

Yes, available for those overseas. Nothing on yet, though.

 

[FortressVillage]

Come on Rangers

 

[Big jeff]

Is that prick Stewart giving us the prongs

 

[Macca]

Pleased with tonight's team. Shows how serious we are taking the game.

Were you expecting the under 20s to show up?

 

[CoopBlue]

We have important games coming up on heavy pitches.

I am glad we have rested Davis and Kamara.

 

[Coke]

His many Mhanks have St Midden got ?

 

[El Jock Grande Sabia]

this mob are pacey .the middle of the park could be an issue

We're hardly without pace ourselves mate!

 

[Prestwick_ Bear]

Michael fucking Stewart! I despise that twat!

Emma and Alex will keep socially distanced from that prick as per regulations.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Conditions look atrocious.

 

[trevor_steven]

Is anyone having issues casting from the Premier Sport app. Everytime I hit the cast button it casts the Juve game but I've got our gaming playing on my phone.
