AJF Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 So, Rangers travel up to Aberdeen on Sunday and I'm expecting to face a tougher side than our last two meetings. I've not seen any comments regarding Roofe's niggle he picked up against Celtic but given his injury history I'd be surprised if Rangers risk him, at least from the start. Which means I think they'll go back with Hagi starting with Kent and Morelos making up the front 3. Still no word on Ryan Jack being back available so I think it's safe to assume he will miss out and with Arfield injured I think we will go with the same midfield 3 that started against Celtic. 4/5 of our defensive positions pick themselves, with only the Balogun/Helander rotation up for grabs. I reckon he will go with Balogun again after a decent performance against Celtic and he strolled it up at Pittodrie on the season opener. Another massive game which I expect to be extremely tight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Our biggest game of the season since the last one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Can't see us scoring but would be delighted to be wrong. I expect Ash Taylor's recent and increasing habit of beating a player to bring the ball out of defence to bite us on the arse. If he can stick to just kicking anything that comes near him as hard as possible then i fancy a nil all shitfest. Assuming that Mcgeough is still out, guess Campbell in midfield - possibly O*o too to beef it up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMCs Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I'm hoping for at least ten points from the remaining 4 games in January and this is the hardest test of those games so I wouldn't be too disappointed with a draw. I can honestly see a 0-0 here especially if Roofe is out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G51 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Improved performance levels are required. This would be a good place to start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 3 or 4 nil to the Champions elect. Not sure about the 2nd half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyLeePwns Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I've always wondered what Aberdeen fans think about Logan, he's always looked lost on a football pitch whenever I've seen him but he always seems to get a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gone downhill as he's gotten older. He was the best right back in the league for while, but I believe you were playing in the seaside leagues at that point, so not surprised you weren't aware. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 What we learned from the two previous games this season is that neither Taylor nor Considine can cope with young and sprightly players running at them so if we move the ball quickly - as we're capable of doing - the result is in the bag. BUT we've looked hellishly sluggish recently and that is meat and drink to a rather ponderous Sheepy defence. I'll go with: McGregor Tavernier Goldson Hellander Barasic Davis Arfield Kamara Hagi Morelos Kent A stuffy game but we can make replacement late on to secure the win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericanFan Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) Rangers 2-0. Probably no one else in the league needed the break more than Rangers. Assuming Gerrard gave them three full days off, that should have them somewhat recharged to get closer back to their pre-December 11 form.

YassinMoutaouakil Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) I think Rangers can essentially win the league here. I know it's basically already over but if there's going to be any sort of collapse then they'll have to start dropping points soon and after Pittodrie there aren't really that many banana skins left. 0-3 btw Edited January 8, 2021 by YassinMoutaouakil 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After last Saturday's 'slap down' of the hapless hoopies we were in dire need of a break. Which of your various Rangers replica uniforms shirts will you wear to watch Sunday's match? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Other than McCrorie we've nae real personnel excuses this time round. A chance for them to show they really are still capable. Fancy us to give a good game but probably fall short of a result. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect Device Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Are we clicking? Must have missed that clicking when we failed to beat a poor Utd team. Rangers have been poor of late as well but they still win when their under par. We don't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
