The McGregor signing is a bit out of the blue. I'm guessing Fods must have been the one who decided it was time to go. The Sun have also just released an article saying Rangers are in talks with Gerrard for the managers job. Not sure he's the best option but it worked for the last Liverpool legend who took the job with no previous experience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A better parallel might be provided by Rangers' sister club, who made a similar appointment to this one. I think he described the job up here as a chance to cut his teeth in management. Liverpool's greatest legend was at his shoulder. Edited April 26, 2018 by Monkey Tennis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 (edited) No idea if there's truth in these rumours, but whenever Gerrard is linked with any managerial role I always think of the greatest example of his tactical awareness. England 2-3 Croatia, where England needed to avoid defeat to qualify for Euro 2008. 2-0 down at half-time, they come out flying in the second half and are back to 2-2 in 20 minutes. Steve McLaren being Steve McLaren, he shits the bed and immediately piles everyone back behind the ball, not even attempting to attack, when carrying on the way they had would surely have seen them win the game. Having allowed Croatia to keep the ball and move into England's half unchallenged for the rest of the game, they then inevitably concede from a long range shot and go out. It was absolutely tremendous entertainment. Gerrard interviewed after the game, the first thing he says is 'I think we went a bit too gung-ho at 2-2.' Says nothing about how he'd be as a manager obviously, but it always amused me that a player at that level could be so oblivious to what was actually going on tactically.

Are we sure it's Rangers and not Hearts that are trying to hire him? He sounds like he'd make a fine understudy for Craig Levein. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His punditry on BT doesn't exactly scream 'tactical nous' either. It's largely just clichés and bland observations that anyone with a functioning pair of eyes could work out for themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesM82 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 One of the Glasgow giants appointing a Liverpool legend as manager, but the guy has no senior coaching experience. What could possibly go wrong? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji4] Aye, but that Was the EBT driven, for every £5 they spend, we’ll spend 10, oldco cheating years of Minty.

naegoodinthedark Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 According to the sun... Foderingham is offski. Arfield and McGregor are Sevco bound. Think Arfield is a great player. Can’t comment on how he’d fit in with their current midfield, but he’d be a very good signing. Greegs though, didn’t he, erm, walk away? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
