Take the lead in Eindhoven after more p1ssing about at the back.
Identical to the goal we gave away on Saturday. Keeper plays a ball out to his CB, who has a worse touch than Cullen, Tillman nips in, robs him and lays it square for Colak to play into an empty net.
When will this madness end? Only the very best quality can handle it. 99% can’t.

BTW. Rangers have found a player in Tillman. A really bright American footballer.

Deserve to not be in champs league when doin shite like that

Would you say Brighton have the very best quality? Why are they able to do it successfully? And they are just one example…

I think it also has a lot to do with the quality of coaching.

They might have had a good start this term but they conceded plenty last year with messing about and they are only 3 games in.

Even the very very very best make mistakes playing this way, the mistakes are worth it for the great upside.

PSV goal imminent here

You are right. There is absolutely no reason why an ever growing number of teams are playing it out from the back.

They should just f**king hump it up the field.

Rangers through. A very good performance against as poor a PSV side as I’ve seen in a long time.
And yes Van Nistelrooy did have a long face at full time.

Pleased for Arfield tonight, don’t think he will be regretting his move there one bit.

There is playing it out from the back and P!ssing about with it because it is not the cool thing to do to lump it upfield anymore.
It doesn’t fit in with Vincent’s progressive football mantra.
I wouldn’t mind us playing it out from the back if our players were creating the space for others to run into to receive quality balls to create dangerous attacks. Alas this isn’t the case at present, we look vulnerable when we try and do it.

Absolutely right. Only the very best can play like this. Most are just not good enough.

Well rangers another British club in the Champions league is a good thing.

Well done Scott Arfield and Glasgow Rangers.

You do realise you can play good football without taking unnecessary risks knocking it around from the keeper. It might be fashionable but it's not that or lump it. There are other ways.

I've been told in this thread, that only 1% of teams can play it out from the back. I beg to differ, that's all.

Playing Tippy Tappy football at the back means you will get caught at some time , now we have been caught once and we will get caught again and again , it's just how it is .

What a career he's had after leaving us; a Europa cup final and now into the Champions League

Have to say I thought he was nearly finished when he left… seems to have had a second wind with the move up North.

GVB has done a heck of a job at Ibrox, Gerrard laid the foundations, but GVB has taken Rangers to another level.

Must be a strong chance of at least one all British clash given both Celtic and Rangers are involved along with the 4 English teams,

They were very impressive last night

Kept the ball really well, and created some good chances

Lawrence and Lundstrom really shone I thought, along with Long at the back
