  • He'll go with the strongest possible side with a win guaranteeing qualification.
     
    Mainoo and Ugarte need a rest, so does Mazraoui I think. So with that, this is the side I hope starts the match;

    Altay
    DeLigt-Maguire-Licha
    Amad-Collyer-Casemiro-Dalot
    Garnacho-Bruno
    Zirkzee
     
    Lose at home to Rangers and away to Fulham, whilst playing poorly enough to deservedly do so, and I think things might get real nasty for Amorim. It’s likely we’ll comfortably beat the former 4-0, naively think we’ve turned a corner then lose to the Cottagers. Ie we’re already mimicking the last few months under ETH where we’d pull a win out of the bag (either a Moments FC McT last minute winner or smash a lower tier team like Barnsley) when needed only to return to shit for the next 2-3 games.

    Moments FC are what these players have built their reputation on and also one of the reason we are where we are atm.

    I can easily see Rangers giving us trouble, we really need to get our act together, can’t be losing to the likes of these.

    Well - I can't see any team right now not giving us trouble. We could be playing Carlisle at home - and I could still see them giving us trouble
     
    We can’t keep playing Maz & Dalot at wingback.

    Bayinder
    Mazraoui - de Ligt - Martinez
    Antony - Ugarte - Bruno - Garnacho
    Amad - Zirkzee - Hojlund​
     
    With how bad this team is, I cannot say with any level of confidence that we can win any game from here on out. There is a very real possibility that we lose every time we set foot on a pitch now.
     
    Rangers unbeaten away in Europe in their last seven games.

    0-0 v Sparta Prague
    3-2 win v Real Betis
    2-2 Benfica ( Europa league round of 16)
    1-1 v Dynamo Kiev (Champions league play off
    2-0 win v Malmo
    1-1 v Olympiacos
    4-1 win v Nice (club owned by ineos)

    The players have looked leggy after Arsenal. Can’t keep playing the same XI game after game.

    Also, we are not winning the Europa League. And even if we did, we’d have no business in the CL next year - we are literally finishing in the bottom half of the league.

    I get that but we do have a chance of winning it. Look at the teams left. People were touting Spurs as contenders and they are worse than us at the moment.

    We have no business in the CL but it will bring in millions more and that can only help us in the market surely
     
    Haven’t seen this Rangers team, but do they have a physical strong team with stamina to match it will be a tough one.

    It really doesn’t matter if they have quality in droves, all that matters is if they turn up and run.

    If we keep playing like we did against Brighton and Saints I guess it could go down the exact same road.

    Hope for someone to take reins and lead by example. Amad have shown that it’s possible.
     
    Seems that it's impossible for us to keep a clean sheet these days, so the real questions are how many goals we can score and what that will be enough for.

    Even that seems impossible these days. We are creating nothing it seems, unless Amad wins the ball up high. Seriously what happened, if I remember correctly we where creating chances during Amorims first matches, even when we lost, we had higher xG than the other team? I hate, xG but still only thing I can use atm to make my point.
     
    Lets hope Amad is fit and plays because the rest of them dont have a goal in them.
    Football is supposed to be fun but im just finding it depressing loosing week after week.

    He can't come out and say the things he's saying as well. It's not helping to say how bad we are: we KNOW. But it's his job to -fix- it. Our footballers are -not- actually as bad as many people seem to think. Mainoo, Garnacho, Bruno, Maguire etc aren't bad players and I'm sure they'd play for most of the sides who are making a mockery out of us, collectively, lately Brighton.

    Hopefully Rangers will just be almost a holiday from the league, and a chance to start again, we badly need to.

    Not particularly physical to be honest, aside from perhaps Igamane up top. What I would say though is that the midfield is fit, particularly Diomande and Raskin, who really dominated the game against Spurs.

    Sounds horrific.
     
    Can’t see us not struggling in any game against any opponent right now. And the way our players have been peforming lately every team will feel they’ve got a chance and be up for it.

    It’s like vs Southampton: just win somehow.
     
    I work with mostly Rangers and Celtic fans. My WhatsApp is goi g to be blowing up on Thursday night if Rangers get a result. Safe to say, all the Rangers fans are expecting to draw at least. They genuinely are relishing playing us - that pretty damning. OT will be drowned out by the away supporters.
     
    Don’t look forward to home games anymore. We can’t win at home. Think we’re actually better away from home at the minute.
