HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

But I think if it gets to the last...

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

dying embers of the game the last 10-15 minutes of the game and it is a draw I'll be really interested to see Rangers approach to that because like I says I think it's a game they must win so how does that look do they then fling everyone at it you know you see Ryan Nadiri backing the bench as well they've got attacking options on the bench with Gassama and Oliver Antman but for me I think it's a must win for Rangers Frank's optimistic Roger because it's do or die you know how simple that task looks does that sharpen the minds for you the way that Frank thinks it will be

week but the team he's got out there's no excuses you're either good enough or you're not and today we'll find out yeah and listen I says that I don't think the Rangers are going to exercise their option to purchase Scov Olsen but this is probably maybe a last chance to win for Scov Olsen does a does a double today does that change his viewpoint for Rangers fans I think it's a big game for a number of players James Tavernier has obviously announced that he's leaving at the end of the season he'll be

really hoping that he can end it with some silverware at the end of the season and I really do think it's going to be a fascinating game I think the games between Rangers Celtic and Hearts at Tyne Castle this year I think have been thoroughly entertaining but you've got to sense there's going to be some nerves from both sides it's such a huge game and I do just feel that whoever's going to get that first goal today is going to be pivotal Hearts have only conceded one goal at Tyne Castle in their last five games they've won five in the trot so I think that first goal today is going to be massive What do you make of Skov Olsson's

HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

Yeah, I think Derek McInnes is a very, very tactically astute manager.

HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

He's someone that makes a lot of in-game changes and I think a lot of the criticism towards Danny Rule recently is the lack of in-game tactical changes.

HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

Wait until half-time before he changes it and it's either worked like it did against Falkirk or it didn't work like it did.

against Motherwell at Ibrox so I do think it's going to be it could potentially be one we both dug out so I expect a lot of changes in it Roger spoke about Hearts playing with that man less in the midfield area so it doesn't surprise you it doesn't for the

The sole reason I think a big advantage Hearts have got for me is the two strikers in Lorne Shanklin and Claudio Braga.

HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

So to fit them in the team, does that mean that he sacrifices a winger to play with three centre-halves like he did against Hibs last week?

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

I fully expected him to go to that 4-4-2.

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

And I just think he'll ask his two outside wingers to play really compact and try, instead of being a 3v2, make it a 4v3.

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

So I think it's going to be a fascinating game and it's one I'm extremely looking forward to.

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

But I do think there's been a few occasions recently, obviously the last two games are a perfect example, where I don't think Rangers have started the game well.

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

And for me, like I said, I think the first goal is massive tonight.

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

So do Rangers play with a mindset in the opening 15, 20 minutes of this game that they have to win?

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

Or do they try and fool their way into the game, which I think is extremely dangerous?

Superscoreboard
HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

Because one thing I'll say about Tyne Castle is if you let the Tyne Castle crowd get on Hartsey's back like they've done, sorry, get on their side like they've done all season long, they can be a really, really difficult team to play.

What do you think?

HEARTS VS RANGERS LIVE | MONDAY 4TH MAY

Listen, I do think it's really difficult.
