I agree with some on here, if it is Kenny Miller, why is he undermining the manager and not coming out and being open about it rather than leaking information to others. He has no right just because he has experience and it could easily cause a divide in the dressing room. He needs to get behind the management team and work with them to implement their tactics and understand them for the good of Rangers and not for a personal vendetta. If professionals cannot understand the basics of transitional play between the thirds in Scotland then it's worrying and no wonder the Scottish game is so dire.

@mikefisher: I never mentioned I was a tactical advisor to Pedro Caixinha I actually stated this is what I believe it to be from analysing the two Progres games and my experience working as an academy coach here in west London. Just because Kenny has great experience and has played in many formations doesn't make him any better than anyone, he has to go through the same process as anyone does when collecting his coaching badges and top players have failed miserably at managing teams. This European formations take time to bed in and we have to be honest out current crop of British born players are just not good enough hence the reason why Scottish football is so poor compared to the continent.

It's funny how the last two foreign managers to take over the club have somehow apparently caused a dressing room divide usually amongst the Scottish players. His tactics aren't actually that complicated to see they are standard European team tactics but perhaps as mentioned earlier the British players within the team are just not technical enough to adapt and understand it. The formation will be a 4-3-3 with adaptable wingers, when we have possession in the defensive and middle thirds the wingers will stay wide creating space and making the picture seem bigger making it harder to defender against. In the final third they will be expectedly to drift inside more becoming inside forwards whilst the two full backs attack simultaneously giving us 6 options in the final third with the attacking midfielder joining in the mix. The two centre halves will stay back covered by the defensive midfielder sitting just in front of them to drop back between them if we get hit on the break. The other midfielder will be just outside the box and will act as the link between defense and midfield dictating the pace of the game. This is what I can't make out of his tactics so far but we are far from being able to play that way with a brand new team and set of players and it will take time. In my opinion if Kenny doesn't like it then he needs to leave, his been a great serpent to us as has Lee Wallace, but Pedro is the manager and his tactics should be played out it's not up to the players to decide that it's their job to play football.

They are staying down in the Bisham Abbey sports complex just outside of London. Nice venue that was used by the England national team before St George's Parl was opened.

A back line with a combined age of 138 I think we need a mix of younger and experienced central defenders and wing backs, Hutton and Whittaker are playing at their levels at this moment and time and our not the answer taking us forward in my eyes.
