He’s in danger of becoming yesterday’s man in terms of tactics. The possession-heavy style will inevitably get more and more phased out as time goes by.

He played Martin ball with some halfway decent players for the first 16 games of last season at Southampton, amassing a total of one win, then got sacked. Perfect fit for SPL.

Are you really trying to say that Rangers aren’t one of the biggest clubs in the world?

Needs time to embed tactics properly before deciding it won't work imo

He's got then further in UCL qualifying than normal I believe and brugge got to round of 16 last year

Frustrating start in the league though. But I hope he is given till the end of year to embed it personally

They got to the groups 3 seasons ago and the play off round, like they are in now, 2 seasons ago.

He looks a total misfit for what they need and the signings are uninspiring to say the least. I can't see him being there past Christmas.

That year they were chaMpions domestically going into it so skipped a round of qualifying I think

It's not looking good for him fan reaction wise but I'll be watching along with interest to see if he can make it work. Title looks gone skready

Can't agree unfortunately, I want to see the full gambit of our aspirations,wasted effort and all, not this choreographed style of the game, soz and all that

A manager who refuses to adapt or even consider adapting in the face of poor results and performances is not a good manager, end of discussion.

Seemed like the thread for it as creating another one was pointless, but Celtic (the best in the SPL comfortably) going out to a team from Kazakhstan is absolutely wild. SPL is finished.
Also as I said earlier in the summer, anyone spending big on a player from there needs to be very careful, the standard is so poor you have no idea what you are getting really.

It’s a league where the scouts really have to earn their money so you’re landing a John McGinn rather than a typical SPL player. Telling that we’ll gladly send our fringe players on loan up there but I can’t remember when we last signed someone from there who made any tangible difference. Unless we count Josh Reid’s bench warming abilities.

Shit league, shit players, deluded supporters of both Glasgow sides

They'd get tonked every week in the Championship and would find it a struggle to get top 6 L1

If there will ever be a campaign where someone different has a real tilt at winning the pub league (Hearts?) it will be this one as from what I have seen so far Rangers and Celtic are both absolute guff this season

1 down in Europe, 4-1 on aggregate away at Bruggen with Max Aarons sent off (I'd forgotten about him as well).

Does Martin's make the international breaK?
