Did Bajrami become a part time footballer now ? Can't even break into his club's starting eleven.
Well, they are focusing all-out on Europe now because they already lost the league to Celtic, so this tie is of the most importance for them and he hasn't been good enough to warrant starting it. What would put him back in the good books is a top performance against Bilbao (off the bench most likely) or against the next opponent they face, but that will be difficult at the current moment if he isn't starting.
Somehow they held on against Bilbao with 10 men for 80 minutes, hanging on for dear life. We will see if maybe they get through to the semis, they have a very small but possible nonetheless chance of winning the EL.
In general after a somewhat positive start (very briefly) the Rangers fans think he's complete shite.
Most of the comments say that he has some decent moments on the ball and good technique but mostly invisible every game, a lot of them are just saying despite being good technically he's so lazy, hides from the ball and from physical battles, and therefore can't get into the game whenever he plays. A lot of them accuse him of looking like he doesn't even want to play football (it is ironic given how many times we've seen the same said here).
There is even this, and I quote : "Sounds stereotypical, but I wouldn’t sign any Albanian players. Grezda was the same, the work ethics not there for our game and players that’ll run through a brick wall for their country, down tools whenever the going gets tough at club level. "
"Talented waste of space, another that doesn’t have the heart unfortunately. "
"We've seen enough of him to establish that he does have a reasonable level of skill, so it must be an attitude problem"
"I dont even believe his attitude is wrong. He clearly is technically gifted. He's just a fucking pussy shitebag. McCausland and two 18 year old boys absolutely showed him up."
"He pulls out of tackles all the time an he was anonymous last night. Get him to f***. He looks to me as though he wants to be elsewhere."
"Said on multiple pages, he’s a hider and I can’t bear that from any player. Reeks of shitebaggery."
"Should be given until the summer to improve but the signs arent great. He always seems a yard or two behind the pace of games and just generally a really lethargic looking player."
"I have never seen a Rangers player hide so much, he’s an utter shitebag, shirks tackles avoids responsibility. Another did that needs shifting asap."
"One of a few players who think they can pick their game to turn up!
Again one of a few who doesn't like the physical side."
"He needs grafters around him as he's not one. Then we may see something from him. But as of now? For a club like us to spend 4mill on him when we needed a 6, a 9 and a CB? Seems criminal."
"I’d be looking to sell, the issue is more to do with his mentality rather than physicality but it’s a big issue. He doesn’t have the right mind set, he hides from the ball, doesn’t track back, makes lazy passes and to be one of the poorer performers in this Rangers team takes some doing. I’d love to be proven wrong with him as there is talent there."
"He's a moments player.
Far too inconsistent for money spent on him."
Etc etc. And you get the idea.
Him and Muci are really similar in that way, they can do great things with the ball at their feet but only once in a blue moon, they aren't prepared for the 95% part of football which is running, marking, tracking back, getting in behind, circulating possession etc.
