Rangers returned to competitive action after the winter break with a disappointing 2-1 defeat by Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Wednesday night. The Light Blues started well but struggled to break down a typically-determined Steve Clarke side. New signings Jermain Defoe and Steve Davis were handed competitive debuts for Steven Gerrard’s side but neither were…
Millie’s pitch is horrible, it’s not the same for both teams as they train on it daily. Killie, are also one of the best counter attacking teams in Scotland, however, we did gift them a goal.
The only issue last night was accommodating Davies. He is a good player, but the game passed him by. We should have played RK wide left and DC wide right, SA attacking and RJ holding. If we are playing a flat four, then they need support.
We got it wrong last night, it’s annoying and frustrating, but I believe we will get it right. With guys like McGregor (he was fuming) who knows what we are about, we will succeed.
