    Every team sets out with a different strategy. That’s like saying anyone who watches Man United when they’re playing their very best football assumes that every team in England play that way. And we all know that’s not the case. Anyway, how many teams in Scotland are an advert for attractive football?

    A neutral who knows nothing about football would look at Liverpool and what they’ve achieved in Europe and think they must dominate their domestic league. I don’t see how your arguement stands up.

    People see a team from Scotland and associate the team with the country.

    Not every Italian team plays Catenaccio, but all the teams are lumped with the defensive tag whether they do or not.

    well done rangers, the other team only managed one shot on target in two hours, and good luck in manchester against that advocat fella

    People already generally have a poor opinion of scottish football, if one of their teams reaching a European final by grafting & grinding out results by doing what they have to do makes the reputation even worse then I’d be surprised. And some just won’t be swayed regardless.

    When we beat France, who were the better team? Who gave a shiny shyte? Just cos it’s Rangers doesn’t mean the principles have changed.

    I cant remember Scotland ever trying for a 0-0 draw at Hampden.

    Didn’t exactly play attractive, attacking football for 90 minutes though. And I don’t recall stating that Scotland were trying for a 0-0. I was pointing out that Scotland, like Rangers, did what they had to do and rode their luck at times.

    Interesting to see the Fiorentina manager slamming Rangers for their tactics, as Messi did. It must have been Rangers’ fault that they didn’t score with any of the chances they created. And they probably made Vieri miss that penalty as well, how unsporting of them :lol:

    No team has to play attractive, attacking Football for 90 mins. Team’s should attack sometimes though, and certainly in Home Legs.

    A Baboon could put out a team of 11 of his Baboon Friends in a 9-0-1 formation to defend for 210 mins, and hope for Penalties.

    If every team played like Rangers how long do you think the game of Football would survive? How many people would continue paying money to go and watch a Game Of Football Chess every week? Football would be bankrupt within five years.

    Id say the exact thing if Celtic were doing it.

    Rangers did attack ‘sometimes’ Next you’ll be telling me how you define the word ‘sometimes’ and telling me how it doesn’t apply to Rangers.

    #317723

    Well, I must have blinked.

    #317724

    You must’ve actually fallen asleep cos they did have a few chances to win the game in normal time late on. I take it that does meet your standards of ‘sometimes’ or does it not count cos you never saw them?
