Ball started his 4th game in succession - but this time seems to be playing as DM not CB

Not great, I felt his passing was poor today but then he did hit the post with a shot. Both him and Zelalem were poor imo

Sky said he was a DM but the wing backs pushed up so high he effectively made a back three with Danny Wilson and Kiernan.

Warburton said they were playing a back 3 post match.

Brief highlights shown on sky, he hit the post with a shot from outside the box at 1-1, unlucky it didn't go in, keeper was beat and was a great effort.

Ball been very tidy on the ball has rarely been challenged defensively but did make a mistake that to an alloa player hitting the crossbar, besides that it's been a very good half as Ball is clearly asked to play and bring the ball out of defense. oduwa's been a little anonymous so far, losing the ball too easily at times, did play some nice one two's and got some pot shots away. games been too easy for rangers oduwa really hasnt need to but in any effort.still would like to see him make some runs off the ball instead off just standing around expecting the ball to come to him.

yeah, he'd be going up against him in training, right?

Depends what side he plays on. In our preseason he looked to be playing off the left.

He linked very well with Rose in pre-season iirc.

For Spurs youth teams he's usually played on the left, and has often cut inside to shoot - although he's perfectly capable of going to the byeline - but a few times he's played on the right hand side.
On loan last season e seemed to be predominantly played on the right, and again at Rangers he seems to mainly be playing on the right.
So think he can play both sides pretty well - just a case of who else is playing and their relative strengths as to which side he is played on. Most of his goals seem to come from is right foot but think his let foot is used for more than standing on, so he's getting towards being both footed

I want Oduwa to get Townsends place in the squad next season. Save the millions for another quality striker imo.
