Space indicates why Moussa scores so many against Newco

444

I read Kenny Shiels’ comments that Newco’s Barrie McKay was better than James Forrest and Patrick Roberts, making me curious about McKay’s contract. The midfielder’s deal expires in 18 months, but when announcing his contract signing, Newco were unusually frank about their newco status:

“The winger has played a total of 78 times for Rangers, after making his first start in July 2012 against Brechin City at the age of 17.”

Before going onto explain in the same article that “The pacey winger made his Rangers debut against St Johnstone in the Light Blues’ last game of the 2011/12 season.”

If you count, that’s two debuts.  For two Rangers.

McKay was clearly Newco’s best player against Celtic, causing problems from the first minute until their challenge ran out of steam. Tying him into a long-term contract will be a priority (or selling him will be).

Yesterday I noted how Kiernan yelled abuse towards Tavernier at Scott Sinclair’s goal at Ibrox, but as this still shows, the entire Newco defence have questions to answer.

There are five defender goal-side of Stuart Armstrong (not counting one on the wing). As the world was about to find out, Sinclair was unattended, but look at the space Moussa Dembele is in! The two central defenders, who will soon claim to be covering him, are five yards away from him. The defensive line isn’t so much a line as a horseshoe.

This is what Moussa scores so many goals against that lot, he doesn’t get this kind of space against any other opponent.

    Agree. As I said some cultures need genicided. Not all cultures are equal.

    Even better you know one of the nurses assigned to her.

     

     

    I hope she gets home soon when her health improves.

     

     

    Saturday’s result would have been a good pick me up for her.

     

     

    Mentioning Joe Garnet, if that was his surname , he would be at home at Ibrox with ra people who I would like to believe had similiar attitudes to Alf Garnett in death do us part.

     

     

    Good night all and sleep well .

  6. Haven’t seen many clips of young Eboue, however the one I did see demonstrated his excellent skill at blessing himself. A surefire hit with the support – whether he’s good or not. :-)))

    Yep.

     

    I`ve learned that the trick is to read you before you get done.

  10. I like your press. So many stories few minutes after short twitt from the Russian journalist. Each media reveals exclusively.

  11. Natknow- BR noticed we were out muscled in a lot of Euro games, maybe the answer….interesting signing given his age and games played .

    Happy to trust Brendan – not got much wrong so far!

    Imagine if Celtic were to replace Hull in the EPL right now.

     

    Then 1 of WBA, Bournemouth,Southampton, stoke, burnley, west ham, watford , leicester, middlessborough, crystal palace, sunderland and swansea would be destined to become another crewe forever. Wont happen.

  15. TTR- Lets start a rumour that we are after an experienced Ivory Coast Superstar to help him bed in….HH

  16. Lego and Batman will now be on the FF banned list. I was at the pictures tonight at the Quay Odeon and during the trailers they had an ad for the soon to be released Lego Batman movie, it looks to be a hoot. Anyhoos, they have the character doing selfies of himself throughout Glasgow – one inside Paradise. None from zombieville.

  17. Sevco Media in meltdown about Eboue’s work permit as he doesn’t meet basic criteria. Conspiracy a tell yae.

    Hard to believe.

  19. Just a wee ask here. My goodlady had to fly back down to Cardiff tonight as her dad will more than likely pass away tonight. A wee prayer would be nice. HH

    This story reminds me of the old ‘Jesus Saves!… But Dalglish nets the rebound!’ gag.

     

     

    Can you imagine the fun we would have with ‘Christ joins Celtic!… But Brendan makes him BETTER!’ ☺

     

     

    Yours in Celtic,
