Beam me up, Scotty - Rangers & Scotland CM Story
Forum Discussion
Unfortunate in Europe, considering how the group started it's gone full circle for positions so unlucky it Bronby also. However, considering the group 3rd place is not the end of the world for Rangers so hopefully a good run in Europa League for them instead. League form going well 11 straight wins impressive no matter what league your in. Celtic still keeping similar pace, but with your form the 5 point gap remains

Yes, this group was really a rollercoaster ride if I ever saw one. PSG a step above everyone else in the end though, and with only 1 win in 6 games I can't say I deserved more than Europa League. I had hoped for more against PSG and Dortmund. Losing three of those games 1-0 also suggests that I could have hurt them, if I'd just been a bit more clinical. Well, I agree that a good Europa League run can still save the European season, and perhaps it's even preferable in terms of title hopes. It is a tough competition though, with Tottenham, Man City, Newcastle, Napoli, Roma, RB Leipzig, Ajax, PSV, Feyenoord, FC Porto and of course Europa League veterans Sevilla. If I can avoid the toughest of them, Man City for instance, then I might have a chance to go far.
At least the ref was consistent with the yellow cards but losing two games in a row by a goal is hard to take. The attack has been so good this season but went missing the last two games in Europe.
The league is yours so the focus can be on Europa. You have to be one of the favorites left.

Haha, yes that was quite fun actually, a little moment in the game. I knew it was lost at the time, and they just kept the ball, passing it around with no intention of going forward and taking any chances. And then I saw a chance for a payback on Hakimi, and I did expect a red card for that vengeful act from behind. But as you said, the ref was certainly consistent.I agree that Europe needs to be the priority now. Here I'd probably want to avoid the English and Italian sides (the latter also due to the licensing issues). But apart from that I feel I've got a good shot at it. Need to win more than just 1 out of 6 games though.
