@RangersTruth Can play whoever you want in defence, if the midfield gives teams a free run at the back four they will struggle. Chukwuani had a good 15 mins today, but the rest of the time he was diabolical. You need a lot more than what he's given so far for £4m.

You play Emmanuel Fernandez and Nasser Djiga. If either aren’t fit then you play Sterling at CB and Tavernier at RB. If Sterling isn’t fit you play Cornelius. If Cornelius isn’t fit you play Tavernier. You. Don’t. Play. Souttar.

@TimFreeZone @4ladshadadream Or if not for Chukwuani and his inability to make a tackle in midfield, and the terrible finishing from Chermiti. The Souttar pile on is all a bit predictable and lazy. He's not in good form lately, but he's not the only one and made a terrific block at 3-2.

@4ladshadadream Should have been a comfortable afternoon if it was not for John Souttar

Very pleased with today Answered the pressure accusations, made some mistakes but scored some good goals, created lots of chances and some excellent individual moments. (Yes some issues also) Stressful at times, but title races are! Well done Rangers 👏🏻 Onwards

@bryce9a He's just the latest target for the hive, and he has been all season. It was McCausland last year, Wright the year before. If there's no Souttar next year, it will be Curtis. Its very predictable. Stems from a Scottish sense of inferiority.

@WillSharp222 It’s absolutely right, no one’s claiming Souttar is in sparkling form but the fact everyone was saying he showed him inside at the first goal, when factually it was the opposite, shows half of the criticism at least is bullshit. His block at 3-2 was superb. That’s his strength.

Severe case of Souttar Derangement Syndrome with folk claiming he "showed the attacker inside" for that goal. Literally the OPPOSITE. Chukwuani 90% to blame for not stopping at source. Butland 10% for the fluffed save.

@adamski152 Doesn't matter who is in the back four, when that's your central midfield set up you'll always be vulnerable. Much easier to blame one player than accept its systemic.

I thought Rangers showed some really great character, leadership AND mentality to deal with people called John and go top of the league today.

@alegil2101 Olsen is a good example of where people aren't asking the right questions about recruitment and looking for the things you need to succeed in Scotland. Doing well in Belgium doesn't mean doing well here. We keep ignoring this

Honestly thought skov Olsen was gonny come here and be a stand out player He seems to struggle every time he takes to the pitch

@BigGreegsy1 @4ladshadadream Don't disagree, but that kind of mistake from Chukwuani is becoming routine. He's now culpable in the last 3 goals Rangers have conceded. That's a problem.

@WillSharp222 @4ladshadadream Aye,shouldn’t have happened but that’s 40 yards up the field Souttar is running with him 20 yards up the field,doesn’t tackle,lets him cut inside and shoot without trying to block it It’s a significantly worse mistake

2-1 Awful defending by Souttar who just is past far too easily but Tochi should take a booking and doesn’t previously Needless from Rangers

@BigGreegsy1 @4ladshadadream Chukwuani loses his man 40 yards up the field

@4ladshadadream To be fair Tochi thought his CB might attempt a tackle & not just let him stroll inside and place the shot

@4ladshadadream Souttar should be doing better but we've been letting Dundee Utd break like that all half. Chukwuani was dreadful in the first half. If you leave the defence as exposed as that you do pay the price eventually.

@ibroxrocks Well folk wanted to see Naderi as the 9...

Hmm. Not what we were expecting…

@NickJ_UK @DavidMcGregorBN Just in time for them to u turn after you've voted and cut it anyway 😂

@DavidMcGregorBN Vote Reform in only after I retire 😂

Is he saying younger generations today don't deserve a pension? Is that how he's going to pay for this?

@Bobmcphail1872 Wow, what a ridiculous reply. Doubling down on your own blind spot.

@WillSharp222 Do you have glaucoma then?

I love Naderi and think he's going to get even better for us. Strength, running power, link play, good movement (if you actually watch him), good touch, a team player. Think he'd excel as the point man instead of the deeper role but I think him and Chermiti are a handful for defences - centre halves no longer getting to stroll about against us. Just need to see the goal threat level nudged up and we're cooking.

@TheRealKevinMac @KaiGWatson The national team? Fair enough. Not quite what the OP asked but OK.

@WillSharp222 @KaiGWatson Not ready for Scotland

Had a look at Findlay Curtis’ data after his Scotland call up; 16 Games 1G/1A 3.69 Shots P90 3.97 Dribbles P90 (58.62% success) 2.46 Progressive Runs P90 0.68 Key Passes P90 5.20 Progressive Passes P90 Really exciting young winger, will he get a chance at Rangers next season?

@Blue_Footy You're out of your mind 😂

Lack of intensity out of possession is a massive problem for Liam Rosenior. He should consider a low or deep block and use Garnacho and Neto on the wings for transitions. That way, we can keep it tighter at the back and play more on the counter like Maresca did towards the end of last season when we needed results badly. We just can't keep playing this way and expecting to win games.

@ibroxrocks What on earth was Chukwuani doing?

2-1 - Rangers fannying about on edge of our box and punished.

@geemagicjay @KaiGWatson And then in a years time you'll say the same again. The "he needs a loan" mindset is the problem.

@KaiGWatson With how poor we are at giving Scottish youngsters a chance. Probably not sadly. He might be better going out for another year at Killie with McCann and continuing with his development. Coming back at 20 with 50+ top flight/cup games is better than 10-15 games for us.

@TheRealKevinMac @KaiGWatson No academy prospect is ever seen as ready by some. That mindset in the Rangers support is a problem.

@KaiGWatson Feel like he’s not ready yet, how Barney Stewart never got called up is beyond belief

@alexjg0 Shankland isn't glamorous enough. No one is talking enough about the fact that the silly money it took to sign Naderi in January could possibly have been enough to get Shankland.

Chermiti has cost Rangers the title, misses sitter after sitter every game. It's unfashionable but go and get an old CF, Dzeko went to 2.Bundesliga, Benteke went to Qatar. Get someone seasoned in, Shankland doesn't miss these chances.

@joshpizpom @heraldscotland This is a story? No fan of GCC, but are you really putting so much credibility on a bunch of well meaning students rather than professionals? That's crazy. 😂

EXCL: A group of Glasgow college students offered to carry out a 3D scan of the Union Corner fire site for free. This would help in future restoration efforts. Glasgow City Council said no thanks. @heraldscotland heraldscotland.com/news/25945358.…
