Exactly. Bottled out of two bouncing ball headers. He’s protecting himself.

He was average but would have left him on for 60. Problem was that Colback was not the right replacement.

Lots of different opinions on him here but the fact is he didn’t appear for second half which we have to assume it means he’s injured again. Sad really as he was superb for us early doors last season.

Willock was good first half. Put a shift in and a few times won the ball back and got fouled. Luongo seemed to really want his shirt.
GA just said he wasn't injured at half time, just that he hadn't trained all week.

Have to say, obviously all about opinions but if you think Willock was sht then I'm not sure which game you were watching. Also Dozzell had a good first half. Not so much second. Smyth played well also overall.
Unlucky to lose that game. But we must finish our chances. Kakay miss is a shocker.

Smells like a trout farm in here

Haven't figured out why he came off at half time. Seemed odd

I wasn't basing my opinion on today, rather the many months he has failed to deliver. He can certainly take no credit for us somehow us staying up last season. It will be better for him and us if he goes. I appreciate some feel differently. All about opinions eh.

He's been injured

Fans that constantly bash players like yourself we at rangers don't need this kind of support

He has given us some great memories, unfortunately had some bad injuries, clearly why he was taken off today.

On song him with Chair and Armstrong that's potential winning combination.

He will make us a profit when he goes, yet fans such as yourself will always constanly moan. Dykes is another of your favourite players also !!!!

It's about opinions yes but barrages of abuse have negative impacts on players and I would say 85% of your posts are dreadfully bandwagon negative. Makes for a very depressing read

I thought he did really well first half, and I could not for the life of me understand why Colback was the replacement to play as one of the 10s second half it led to us ceding the midfield sitting deep and playing through the midfield second half

Same. I thought he was a real handful for their midfield and really disappointed to not see him after halftime.

Much happier with his effort levels today than anything he's done for the last 6 months - so at least he's trying to play
Assume he wasn't ready for 90 mins given he hasn't completed 90mins for what seems like forever
Think he'll stay and we'll get a good half season out of him

Protecting himself for what exactly? Who’s going to give a big contract to a player who looks scared to sprint. It doesn’t make any sense.

I’d like to have seen 15 in the second half from him. I haven’t a clue what’s going on, but 45 minutes is a strange change if there’s no injury. I smell something smelly.

Did I ever mention that I was in Minder?

Well, let’s see. If he’s sold before the end of the month, we’ll know.

And if he isn’t, it could be a lack of confidence in his body after blowing 3 hamstrings.

There’s quite a lot of sense in there if you bother to think about it.

And if you think he worked hard today your standards are lower than the club’s and mine.

Thought he did pretty well. Ipswich had to hold his shirt to keep him in check. We were a better side 1st half with him on the pitch. He helped set up Sinclair when I thought he'd given us the lead, but had managed to hit both posts.

A feat last seen August 1969 I think. A 1-1 draw with Leicester on the opening day when Marsh hit both posts without scoring from somewhere near the halfway line by the Ellerslie stand.

The grass is always greener.

Thought he played quite well and we looked a poorer team with him going off

Credit to the Manager. We were a better team with Willock on the pitch but injury concerns meant the Manager stuck to the agreed plan and removed him on 45 - he put the player and longer term ambitions ahead of a possible short term win. Shame Beale didn’t do similar.

Very good first half. With plenty of workrate, 2-3 times winning the ball when the oppo had it. And very noticeable how we couldn’t hold it up in the final third second half after he went off. Strong in possession, and back to goal. Pulled back at least 3 times when he had driven beyond. Haters wanna hate.

If he doesn't play at Soton next week you probably won't be seeing him In a Rangers shirt
again.

I doubt very much we'll get much of a fee for him, what Chairman of a football club Is gonna lay out his cash on a Injury prone player?

Sometimes you don't know what your missing until It's gone.

I was really encouraged by the first half Rangers performance. We bashed up a decent side (so far) and ended up owning the 45.

Willock gets taken off at half time. We were on the back foot almost straight away, second half. Losing Field and Armstrong = game over. I don’t have the knowledge or the answer, I’m just asking the question - why take Willock off on 45?

Injured, ok, that’s fair enough.

We let them back into the game.

Other than that, very encouraging today.

Exactly, anyone questioning his work rate or desire to play for the shirt is either a moron or has alteria motives. Willock worked his bollocks off today and sadly is just off the pace at the moment. I'll take him all day long over most on that pitch and that includes the Ipswich players.

It's being so happy that keeps me going.

I support my team and today was decent and far from desperate.

And Willock was decent. It was an encouraging game all round and I personally was encouraged

As you said it's about opinions but when I said I disagreed with your viewpoint of constantly knocking certain players and it being unhelpful to our support you throw personal abuse back.

Unnecessary
