Rangers fans have criticised Steven Gerrard for not using Greg Stewart during Sunday’s League Cup final against Celtic. The 29-year-old attacker has struggled for game time since joining from Birmingham City in the summer but has impressed when he’s been given opportunities, most recently netting a brace in last weekend’s 5-0 drubbing of Hearts. Stewart…
All the play and no goals, at least we know now we can play them off the park. Scoring thats another issue we had plenty of chances a penalty and no goals. So there should be no fear about going to the place of ill repute. Morellis lacks a little thought when he is in the box, Kent was shouting for it when he blasted it off the goalies legs. you will never see a more one sided game between Ranger and Celtic again. I feel we need to explore Stewart and Katic and Edmundson, they need game time otherwise these guys will become impatient and ask for transfers. Morrells is single minded and wants to score all the goals. However, no one can do that other people have to play their part. This is encouraged by their teammates an assist is just as good as a goal, and shows a players unselfish nature in playing for the team and not himself. Why did the captain not take the penalty? He is the designated penalty taker. I feel for Stewart he came on scored to goals, and not on the sheet. If these guys don’t play they will ask to go to somewhere where they can have regular football. Thoughts. Afterthought I would be thinking about calling Ross McCrorie back, he is playing very well down south.
I agree with most of what you’ve said but I think they won the phycological game and Tav gave Morelos the penalty to break the duck it was too much pressure. They won with an offside goal I’m sure the Celtic team and official’s are pleased with the result. See you soon.
Agree with all the comments about Stewart. I would also hope that when Jones is fit, he will also be AHEAD of donkeys like Ojo and Ariba. I also think that Tavernier barely deserves a place in the Rangers team. He is NOT A CAPTAIN, and he is very poor defensively, as we have all seen on many occasions. We need to have MORE THAN MORELOS AS A GOALSCORER.
Sad we lost, but better than getting fooked and fluking a win. The league is the thing, today showed we can match them and more. Keeper well off his line for the penalty, no retake. 3 men offside at their goal.
We killed them in open play with Kent having a shite game, Aribo poor and no Davis. They missed their striker, that was all.
I would have had Stewart ahead of Barker, yes. But SG must have seen something.
Destroy them at the Piggery and today will be a distant memory
This is true this cup is only bragging rights. Lennon can not be happy with what he saw today. They were very poor in open play. and could not keep the ball in a neutral venue. I can’t see them playing any better we just caught their Goalkeeper on a good day. We need to win the title nothing else matters.
How on earth did we lose that game yesterday! Unbelievable!.
I feel as if I have been mugged
