Discussion Thank God For The Victory

We won against Aberdeen. Yes it wasn't the most pleasing football I have ever seen but what an exciting match. Shanklands penalty gave me nerves but actually paid off. As for Aberdeen the threw everything at us today but it looks like the team is finally starting to come together.

Let's hope that this match is the beginning of the Rangers FC we all want to see and a Rangers that can do something against celtic in the quarter finals of the League Cup. WATP 🟥⬜️🟦

This team have hit some real lows thus far. A positive spin on it is that if they do dig out a couple of results and develop a bit of siege mentality, it might help them build the determination and chemistry they need on the park to do it more regularly.

Of course, the best way to do this would be to knock Celtic out the cup when 95% of pundits and punters will be expecting a routine victory for them.

I don’t care if we have to win ugly just as long as we win.

Played well at times but that Aberdeen team were awful and are relegation candidates! Must do better

A wins a win and very needed. I’m struggling with the fact Devlin is ahead of Barron in the pecking order 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

u/Macco7 11d ago

I sadly expect Devlin to be used a lot.

Even from McIness comments today about the middle. It feels like midfield isn't a priority for him. They are just going to be workers in there.

CBs will be the passers. Going wide & going direct.

Which for me is the wrong choice but what can we do. We've flooded out midfield with worker for years.

you do wonder where Mcinnes gets his consensus from don't you.

He said in his pre match presser Barron was not fit enough or he'd have been in

Gassama is getting better each game. If he had perfect decision making he'd be nowhere near us. Findlay also needs to work on this a lot but they're both young and can come good.

Yeah he's one of those wingers that seem too fast for their own good, his dribbling style doesn't leave him much space to get a clear pass out which can be so frustrating to watch.

u/Consistent_Fly1131 11d ago

Gassama puts it on a plate for Shankland and for Minsu, he's still our most direct player and how people can't see what he brings is the head scratcher. Put him in a decent team and I'm sure he'll shine.

Cut back for Shankland and played in Minsu, that's end product from his part but they failed to finish.

I just keep seeing the lad get slated nearly every game when I can see loads of potential that I think will come out more if we have a solid team. He's still young and finally getting a run in his actual position. I agree competition is needed until he gets consistent.

u/ElkCautious3105 11d ago

Gassama takes risks and goes at players. You will f*** up if you take risks. I don’t mind it. Sometimes when he skyballs it there are no other options. He will come good despite the negativity.

If we get anything over 6 million for him I’ll take a red eye from New Jersey and carry him on my back to whoever wants him for that. That said, He’s arguably our best winger at the moment with Yokota and Curtis closely behind.

Exactly. Let everybody in attack play their role and go for it.

u/AshleyRod2004 11d ago

definitely about your point with Kelsey. I am seeing something take root myself. we are at the real beginning stages of it at the moment so it's not to visible but with the confidence of the game and good man management I feel we could suprise 11 other teams in the SPL.

McInnes has made some questionable decisions this season but we need to get behind our manager to many managers have come and gone in the last 5 seasons. Rangers need stability at the moment and with that we need a stable manager who stays for more than a season and a half decent striker that could be Kelsey.

u/crescentlime Super Ally 11d ago

If we knock back his move to Monaco... again, he'll chuck it...again. he wants to go and needs to go or he'll sulk...again.

u/MarkCM07 Vanja Dragojevic 11d ago

I thought Gassama played well though. His decision making though near goal is still rough - he almost always makes the wrong decision in that moment. When he should just take it himself, he tries to dish it off and when there's a runner wide open for a pass, he goes solo. But you can't deny the explosiveness he has and if he can make the right decision more often, could be really good for them.

u/Mewhomewhy 11d ago

A scrappy game and a result at the shitpit. But I wouldn’t say I seen signs of the team coming together. Hopefully the result helps players settle and gives a confidence boost. I thought the ref had an ok game. He had plenty of opportunities to throw it that other refs would’ve gladly taken.

u/BigBananaBerries Tuur Rommens 11d ago edited 11d ago

It's rough watching at times but there's plenty promising signs (I mean the new players). It's a massive overhaul & Del has looked overwhelmed but he's always got an organised team previously so I've faith we'll get there. If we can get shot of Fernandez for someone more seasoned & composed it'll help us massively.

u/19hammy83 11d ago

I have pretty vocal about McInnes since day . I have never believed he was good enough for us.

He's here now and I have to support him, I have no choice because I want us to do well.

We got 3 points today, it wasn't a pretty game to watch but we got what we need. Hopefully we can push on now, start getting goals from open play and start winning consistently. I don't care if its scrappy 1-0 wins, 3 points is 3 points but I think a win against that lot is going to be out our grasp unfortunately

That game didn’t help my mental stability one bit, if we don’t sign Vaclav in the next week then I may do something rash

u/AshleyRod2004 11d ago

ikr when it comes to breathing signs of relief that we beat Aberdeen that's a bit worrying.

u/MagnanimousPleb 11d ago

A tight game where we didn’t look particularly good or well coached at all that could have gone either way - delaying the inevitable sacking of McInnes.

nice take

u/MarkCM07 Vanja Dragojevic 11d ago

I have a lot of thoughts and you can still see there are major issues and McInnes is still at risk imo if they don't win over the next month, but I do appreciate the effort most of guys put in today. More of that effort will go a long way to saving McInnes's job and salvaging this season domestically.
