CantHalkett Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 First game of the season Rangers struggling to sign the players they want Hearts still needing a few players in (or to stay uninjured for once) Should be an intresting game on paper but realisticly it will be a rangers win by 2 or 3 goals... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Wonder Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I'd feel better about this if our first choice midfield was available. As it stands we are looking at Grant and Devlin which is a bit limited in a game like this. If Boateng signs he could come in but no idea of his fitness levels. Quietly confident we can get something here though, for all the chat about Rangers struggling it'll still be a good team they put out, but I'm pretty happy with how our team is looking and it should be a good atmosphere. 2-1 Hearts. Shankland and Vargas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentGuerin Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Devastated we're without Beni again. No real idea what to expect, first game etc. So, I'll just assume standard Rangers at home, back in the TA for early second half. Still, it'll be good to be back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJF Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Pessimism. That's all I feel at the moment. Squad is a long way off where it needs to be and it's been a bit of a shambles of a pre-season. Going into this with Souttar and Davies as our first choice CB pairing is far from ideal, with both having very similar weaknesses where they seem to lose the flight of the ball from crosses/balls over the top very easily. Midfield is potentially a bit more settled with Barron, Diomande and Lawrence showing glimpses of being an effective combination last week against Union Berlin, but we look desperately weak in the full back areas with Tav and Jefte (who hasn't covered himself in glory in these friendlies). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insert Amusing Pseudonym Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 We look a bit undercooked and the midfield is still lacking key players. Need to try and get at that defence as it's clearly pretty weak. Wanting to see a better level of performance against Rangers than the last few goes at Tynecastle but I think we'll lose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartsOfficialMoaner Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Gerald Taylor is a versatile player, he started his career playing centrally but developed his career at Deportivo Saprissa playing at right-back. He can also play in midfield. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Cerny not ready to start yet while Propper is but his inclusion will depend if we get international clearance in time. Sterling and Raskin unavailable through injury and Cantwell out of the picture leaves us a tad light for depth in midfield. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeartsOfficialMoaner Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Gordon Oyegoke Kent Rowles Kingsley Taylor Devlin Penrice Dhanda Spittal Shanks Seven guys there to defend. Three guys to attack. The back seven can keep a clean sheet and that leaves the front three free to have some fun and try to get a goal and they can all score. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt n Vinegar Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Transfer window not exactly filling me with confidence. I'll predict 2-0 Hearts, with a good measure of our fans being chased around Princes Street by groups of bikini-clad Fringe performers with rainbow flags. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJF Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 I’m ready to be hurt and disappointed by this Rangers side but since it’s the first game of the season I’ll do it with some enthusiasm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
