But at this moment in time, Hearts have showed that they're one of the best sides in the country.
Every Hearts fan going to Tyncastle tonight will be expecting and hoping for a win.
But when you go 1-0 down and the game is as cagey as it is, there'll certainly be a bit more pressure on them.
But like Roger says, I do think they're a team that's
there's nothing he can do players are just flying into challenges they've given away needless fills and it's a free kick in Rangers half which Emmanuel Fernandes and Nasser Djiga got for this is very direct from both teams isn't it yeah it is and I must admit I didn't really expect any different eh
and if you're going to play that way then set up to play that way which Rangers have done so far but what's really important if Rangers are to be this direct is they have to have players in areas to win setting balls at this moment in time they're doing it pretty well because hearts are a side that if you do allow them into your defensive third they're so dangerous they've got players that will just put balls into the box and you've got the two strikers like Claudio Braga and Laurence Shackland then you're under threat at any minute so
it's been the best move in the match so far for Rangers, no doubt, they've not gone anywhere though, because Germany's lost the ball in a dangerous area, in hearts of, again, listen, like we say, it's,
You're expecting it to be a direct game, but hearts have to do better than that.
That was a scenario where, I think it was maybe Stephen Kingsley was on the ball, there was no pressure on him, so he could advance the ball a little bit, but he chose to try and play up the pitch, but Rangers are doing ever so well at winning the first and the second balls.
It looked for all the world that Claudio Braga was going to let loose from.
I think it was maybe 22, 23 yards out.
But like you said, he just slips at the...
at the last moment and what was a promising sight in Leedsburg Rangers on the counter-attack again but I mean the game is just there's so many turnovers players in the final third just can't keep a hold of the ball it's everything flowing but you've got to say in terms of the
I think at this moment in time you've got to say so, what I'm finding really interesting so far is, I've spoke recently of Nico Raskin's role when they've been playing with that midfield too, dropping in between the centre-halves to try and build a play for Rangers, but I feel as if it's left them really exposed in the middle of the pitch, it's actually been Chukwani and Diomandi that are dropping out and Nico Raskin's almost playing
almost alongside Yusuf Chomiti which I find really interesting at that occasion there Yusuf Chomiti drops into the little pocket of space to receive and Nico Raskin is the one that's running in behind so completely different role for Nico Raskin today but again Rangers give away a free kick in a really needless situation in the area of the pitch but what's going to happen?
Yeah, I must admit, I was surprised myself.
Not to say that I think he's had a poor season, but I think any error he's made this year have been in big games.
You know, Shanklin at Tyncastle, Yang against Celtic, you could probably argue the first goal against Motherwell last week, what a ball that is.
Yeah, and it's two clubs.
I might be wrong, is it?
