He's still on.

Finally put out of his misery, that performance is not one for his best of compilation.

Didn't watch last night's game so can't comment on it, but when I used to watch him play as a fourteen and fifteen year old for the Academy, it was not uncommon to see him run fifty or sixty yards in possession and still be too quick for the opposition. Often when I see him play as a man, it seems he feels he's still that kid who loved dribbling with the ball - I don't think his "game intelligence" is the best.

It's easy to score in Glasgow.

tough draw for them to be fair, they wouldn't have been favourites for that match

When your game is pretty much all about pace and dribbling, you're never going to be effective against teams who play a low block. Especially when your team are slowing down posession and not looking to make quick transitions, as Rangers were doing last night.

Dan James had the exact same problem at United when teams would just sit deep.

Like James, he'll need to add more to his all round game or teams will find it easy to nullify him.

That's what makes players like Johnson and Brooks stand out, they have added intelligence to their game. Can we include Wilson too? The sign of a good player is making something happen when nothing is happening.

Rangers had one of those days last night.

Hopefully they will be a bit more positive at Ibrox.

Tom Lawrence looking assured , making space where there is none . Game is super tight Belgians have 11 men behind the ball , but quick on the break .
Might be an opportunity for Matondo and his pace when the Belgians tire and the game opens up .They had had to chase the game most of the half .
Rangers pulled one back just before half time … one more and we will see what the opposition is really made of.

Re: Rabbi Matondo scores for Rangers against West Ham tonight

I wonder if we will see Robbie McTondo in the 2nd half? Maybe he will come on for Tillman. Lawrence is playing on the left.

Think Rangers will go out after only getting a draw at home, which seems to be a real fortress.
