is paul le guen still at PSG, in fairness to broadfoot he is a centre back playing out of position, and with rangers unable to spend 4-5 million quid on individual players now, they are limited as to what they can buy, i hope Broadfoot proves me wrong but i just dont see it

He inherited a good side and kinda fumbled around a bit. He also dropped Pauletta for a wee while aswell! He was their top scorer and fans favourite. hes scraping through the tail end of the season tho.

As for Rangers and broadfoot, remember we have ALOT of midfielders injured or AWOL! When the midfield is sorted Whitacker will drop to right back with Cuellar,Weir/Webster and Smith im sure. Its a case of putting out fires all over the place at the moment tho.

Le Guens sided is a very young side. He pretty much got rid of all the established guys and it has kinda backfired.

If he keeps them in the league then he might just come out with his job intact but I think they have two games left are level with Lens and Toulouse on 39 points. Goal difference is pretty level between all three teams so it will be right to the last day they go. He was highly regarded by PSG fans as well since he was their captain in the 90's and quite a good player. Kinda soured relationship though now. He can still turn it all around however.

And on Darcheville before I go...I think he NEEDS to be dropped as he is running on empty really. Saw him in the warm up on Wednesday and he looked knackered then. However, we CANT drop him. Cousin should just go now. He is nothing to Rangers now. His mind is elsewhere and his sending off in Florence proved that really. Shame as he has shown glimpses of actually being a top class player. It is his own fault that at 31 years old that he is where he is at. Had a a great opportunity by joining Rangers to show what he could do and did it against Lyon with a performance to behold but as I said earlier, just flashes has been seen since.

Boyd should be an automatic choice between now and the end of the season and if we can get Mculloch back quick, it should be Boyd and Novo up front if at all possible. Darche can come off the bench to add a bit of spice if it aint going too well.

Sorry for the longness.

looking like the filth are fucked for the league as well now; brilliant news.

QOTS for the cup!

Curate · 17th May 2008, 02:15 PM

Who'd have thought that possibly both Gavin Rae and Stephen Thompson would appear in the FA Cup Final? Crivvens.

As much as I hate to admit it, Thomo's pre-match interview was reasonably good banter.

Baz · 17th May 2008, 04:39 PM

what what, the filth of all filth need US to do them a favour to have any chance of winning the league?

i can see leveins team talk now - "let EVERYTHING in, and (hopefully Mccurry will be reffing) comment to the ref on how good each goal was and if he agrees.

this is brilliant!

we never beat Celtic anyway so its not like we`re gonna be able to beat em with nothing to play for.

could be over by then mind, mon St Mirren!

PeteRoe · 17th May 2008, 04:56 PM

It looks like we will just fall short but it has been a tremendous season over all. The UEFA Cup run looks to have just taken the puff out but I wouldnt change any of it for the world.

Not many teams can say they are challening on 4 fronts going in to the final week of the season. We may only end up with just the one , possibly 2 but as dissapointed as I am with giving Celtic the initiative, I am still pleased at how it has went on the whole.

Still though, the pressure is now on Celtic. Hopefully the yare the ones to crack now. It is unlikely but you never know.

RiseAgainst · 17th May 2008, 05:31 PM

as big Marv would say, BELIEVE

poor result today, Adam's deliveries were so poor. The last 4 away results havent been that of a title winning side.

Find it amusing that the United fans who were all "we need the money to build the team" now want to finish lower in the league, nice one!

Baz · 17th May 2008, 05:41 PM

i find it amusing that rangers are away to get pumped outta their "main priority" this season. amazing. your getting what you deserve.

as i said, even if we wanted to beat celtic, we couldn`t. they bastards always beat us. apart from once, years ago, i was there, last minute, was good

RiseAgainst · 17th May 2008, 05:55 PM

I fancy United for a draw, im not sure how much thats in clutching at straws tho.

Winning two cups (potentially), a european final is all good but id swap them all for the league if im honest.

I find it funny how Dundee United fans are bitter as fuck because their team used to be good and now they have to celebrate the failings of other teams because their own side has FUCK ALL to celebrate. get a grip eh.
