Rangers supporters can’t understand why Steven Gerrard continues to snub midfielder Ross McCrorie, believing he could have made a difference in today’s 1-1 draw with Kilmarnock at Ibrox.
The dropped points in the Scottish Premiership mean we are at risk of falling 10 points behind Celtic tomorrow.
It was another dismal performance and we have now gone four matches without a win, being dumped out of the Scottish Cup to Aberdeen in the process.
Many are now scrutinising Gerrard’s team selections and tactics more than ever and one key omission for plenty is the continuing exclusion of midfielder Ross McCrorie.
The homegrown youngster has performed well in big matches this season and it’s perplexing why loan players like Lassana Coulibaly are now getting a game ahead of him.
It’s an issue that Gerrard needs to address or he risks alienating a section of the support.
These supporters took to Twitter today to share their thoughts on McCrorie’s exclusion…
Teams that come and sit back at Ibrox is just horrible, suppose it's their game plan to win points and fair enough! But we should have enough to break that down and we don't, So many players shouldn't be in a Gers top… How McCrorie doesn't get a game is beyond me ???? ????????♂️

Doesn't address the fact he played coulibally over the mccrorie. Doesn't address that his tactics were rotten. Doesn't address that again we lack players to create good chances.
Doesn't address much does he? Just same and same again unless we win. https://t.co/9leduYwy9Y

Young mcrorie must be sitting thinking to himself his performance on the 29th against them was a dream.
How he can’t get in that starting 11 beyond me— finny (@alan_finlayson) March 16, 2019
Where’s McCrorie and Middleton? Both these boys have been great for us when they’ve played!! Something missing and I think especially McCrorie could make a difference ???????????? IMO

Coulibaly over McCrorie is an odd one. Half-time substitutions looked like desperation. Gerrard has to find a way to restore confidence quickly because this team are utterly bereft of it.

What has McCrorie to do to get a game ????????

Here Stevie, any chance you can take the blinkers off and get Ross fucking McCrorie back in that midfield???

Another draw. Same old crap. Great to see Morelos scoring again but the wee man needs assistance up there. McCrorie should've been on from the start and swapping Halliday for Barisic was the wrong move.
