Just watching the highlights again and amazed at how we only scored one as we were in control and the only team creating chances from KO and trying to win the game.
Our back four were comfortable and very composed, with young Tierney once again covering every blade of grass, while Scott Brown was running the middle of the park.
Most of the team played very well, although we never turned the superiority into goals; however,
Bitton was a spectator, while Forrest and Sinclair could maybe do with a rest for a week or two?
The stand-out once again was your man Thomson; it's not just major controversial decisions - as you expect at least one or two, but it's the blind eye here and there and constant 50-50 adverse decisions that go on, all game.

Ya they need to sit wasn't impressed recently with them. We can't let players feel like their place is safe cause with those 2 players it will cause their play to go down.
Hope there is no problem with Roberts BTW him and Rogers (or maybe he knows he won't be here long and is playing players that will be here)

@11 in 67 - and his failure to book Dembele for diving was turning a blind eye? He definitely got the disallowed goal wrong.

I prefer PR but I think its a pace thing with BR he likes front players with pace to get up the pitch quick and that's why he goes for JF.
Tho I think with all the games coming up PR will get plenty of game time.

11 in 67 agree with you on thomson not only the big decisions he got wrong he gave every foul to rangers and barely any to us saw bt put up the stats near the end he gave us 6 fouls and rangers got 16 pretty much any 50-50 and any time a rangers player fell over they got the nod the chalked off goal was laughable and when he booked the rangers player i thought he gave a pen as most probably did i wasn't even surprised i was just thinking wow he got that in good and early.

Hopefully we will see a few changes on Wed night, not because of poor performances but to give some players a rest.
