With the team we have we are capable of winning the spl and re Scottish cup so come let's get behind the bhoys and push them to the title!! Hail fuking hail, you never EVER walk alone!!!!

 

Samaras did well compared to everyone else. Hooper was just pathetic today.

 

**Hooper

 

Samaras plays to deep. Towards the end he was also drifting out the left wing when we were a goal down. He may have tried put he produced * all and lost possession countless times.
Hopper and Stokes have proved a decent partnership and thrive off one another.

 

I love how Samaras gets unwarranted abuse its quite remarkable

 

***Samaras

 

Hooper was utter * the day ! Samaras got the ball a lot but i don't know how many i times i heard " Heavy touch from Samaras " from the commentators.

Kayal was a tank today our best player imo

 

whos givin him abuse? i for one happen to like big sammy and back him against anybody who gets on his back but today i just think he had a howler n for me was the worst player for us today

 

Sammy was miles better than Hooper any 1 that thinks he was not needs to go and have there head checked the big man held the ball well gave us a out ball he had * all support he also got us the goal with his flick on header and he won a good 80% his headers .

Hooper did the square root of * all again hardly had any support or service and then his first touch was the worst i have seen from him since he came here .

 

They were both push yu didn't realise hooper because he passed it's first time everytime nearly it would have been effective if it wasent to samaras because sammi just won't pass

 

I wanted to see Stokes and Hooper today but its understandable why Sammi played but Stokes should have got time on there today ,Hooper was'nt in the match but im not going to slate him ,his natuaral partner is Stokes and he plays different when he is on the park ,hate to say it but rangers wanted this more today .

 

Calling him are worst performer is incredibly harsh. Commons, Rogne, Mulgrew and Hooper were far worse in my opinion.

 

dont need me head checked mate but cheers fur the advise wit service did hooper get today? * all!!! hoopers a striker , how many shots on goal did he have? any clear cut? naw because the service he got the full game was shockin....the whole team had an off day its been comin but hoopers gettin it the night for no reason , ah well theres always a scapegoat

 

Samaras, unlike Hooper had a good start to the game. I think it was his first run at the defence, he got past 2 of them then played a good ball into space. Sure, some of his touches were to heavy or lackluster but for the most part he kept on it. Hooper didn't.

Second half Sammy was just as bad as Hooper. Bad passes, bad shots etc. But neither of them were any worse than anyone else.

Best player was Forster, made that amazing save when he was going the wrong way, looked beat but stuck his arm out to knock it over the crossbar.

 

Samaras stopped play more times today than created it. It's when he stops and goes in circles it kills our counter attacking then players start waiting for the ball instead of making play. His first touches at times seemed to go too far from him.

Hooper was nowhere to be seen till his late chance that went over the bar from mere yards away from the goals. I think Samaras' greediness played a part in him not getting enough chances.

Commons didn't turn it on either.

Rogne was being hounded the entire game down the right and nearly cost us a penalty. Loovens seemed far better since he came on.

We simply weren't hungry enough. I think with our current wins against them we let our guards down today and it cost us.

Stokes should've came on. Our top goal scorer and he's not getting his game doesn't make sense to me.

 

I think today was a day to mix it up with hooper and stokes and for sammy to come on for the last. Half an hour

 

SAmmy was good in the 1st half. Hooper wasn't working with the same level of intelligence to get on the end of anything or get into a good position. Both were bad after the break.

But we also rely on the rest of the team to score - which they are quite capable of. But not today. The Huns closed us down when we had the ball. When they had the ball we gave them space.

None of us had a reasonable game today. I think the team may have been listening to all the praise they've been getting and its gone to their heads.

We were outplayed. The possitive of it all is, that we should learn from that. I have every faith that Lenny will make sure that that happens.

YNWA

 

I'd be a bit * off if I was Stokes, top goal scorer, done nothing wrong and forming a strong partnership with hoops.

Then he gets dropped for an inconsistent player that scores once a month and has been nothing but a disappointment ( to me anyway) for 3 , fairly bad , years
