Perch

[Rangers77]

If we were to go back up we would need an entirely new back 5. That's short-termism imo.

Of course we would, Bakes. But, assuming we do (big assumption), we have two other windows to make improvements. For between now and January we need two strikers in this window. One if JET can play up front, but I've been told he can't. Certainly, because he looks like a basketball player, he doesn't look like he could play up front in 4231 or 433.

poor against atalanta and poor today. Only 2 games but must improve

Yeh. And hopefully that Kpekawa can do the biz at LB or CB.

We've got 2 #### fullbacks, hopefully Furlong comes through and Yun returns ASAP

Ha ha. Being written off after one game. I agree he was poor but please give him a chance as he has only been with us a week.

[Ginger Ninja]

Let's give it more than 1 game eh? Good lads.

[James1979]

I thought he did ok. It was green's fault for the crucial 1st goal.

Thought he was good against Atalanta but hey, all about opinions.

Agree. People saying Perch should of closed Watt down is not that clear cut. Half decent strikers get shots off for a reason, usually cos they're quite good. Tony Watt has scored against Barcelona in the Champions League, he's not a bad player.

Green getting beat at his near post was criminal. First game, first gaff. Not surprised.

Agree. People saying Perch should of closed Watt down is not that clear cut.

Basic rules of defending as a RB though - force the forward down the channels rather than inside the box.

I'll give Perch more time before I single him out for abuse but that was not a great 2nd half.

As for Green - should have saved that first goal, not sure about the second though.
