Cocky. no benefit in training on their pitch!
Well maybe if we had we might have found a pass
5 changes, what I saw, id say we threw the game to concentrate on league?
Over coaching, poor Hart doesnt seem how to distribute the ball when he has it in his hand?
We didnt just lose because Bodo out played us, we lost because we played very badly take it on the chin learn from it and dont start saying we will win everything progress is slow we proved we cant so without kyago hatate jota etc
The biggest upset was the Huns put 6 past Dortmund and they have WORLD CUP WINNERS in their side who would have thought it, dreading going to Mordor now cos got to admit they are still a good team.HH
Dortmund were defensively as bad as Celtic are in Europe and even then they took the foot of the gas at half time in a match they were controlling.
I feel arrogance played a factor in the outcome and surely we know how Morelos and Kent play so lets go to Ibrox being brave and showing no fear as there will be an onslaught and hate towards us all over the venue from ball boys to billy boys.
If someone can work on us defending set plays between now and April and stop asking small defenders to play zonal marking then we wont lose unless our bottle crashes like they did in paradise.
That’s the thing though, that’s not changing or improving anytime soon. There’s always loads of talk about who we’re signing in upcoming transfer windows etc but the most important signing we could make is getting a tried & tested defensive coach in to replace Kennedy.
We are shorter than average across our backline though, you’re correct. Scales adds height but seems down the pecking order at LB & Jullien is just coming back, they add height but I don’t see them getting all that much time between now & end of season.
Sadly no chance of getting rid of KENNEDY he’s part of the board’s furniture ANGE has no say in the matter every team he’s coached he’s brought in his own people.
It certainly seems that way doesn’t it, Kennedy has obviously been offered a job for life at the club for whatever reason.
I don’t dislike the man but I dislike the effect he has on our first teams defensive performance, I’m just holding on to the hope that there’s a way to shove him sideways, push him into a role where he isn’t directly influencing the senior players on the training park & on game day. Get him one of them nice green striped ties & a blazer & sit him up in the stands.
Its odd but in some way the huns european progress means they have extra games to play more chance of injuty, bookings and the further they go in europe some players will protect themselves to not get injured. Personally I hope they get to the final and get hammered condider this they dont win the Spl they dont get automatic place. They dont win anything domestically ??? Just saying
They did well, but it might have been a flash in the pan and remember Dortmund put four past them!
We made it to a European Final in 2003 and won nothing that Season but plaudits.
Rangers finished second in the League in 2008 after making it the final of the Europa that Season.
Both sides were arguably better sides than the current ones.
A good run in Europe can often end in disaster domestically.
Let’s hope their wee run continues as we concentrate on getting the real job done.
