On Monday afternoon, Darrell Currie and Chris Sutton named their BT Sport Team of the Week.
There were some bizarre decisions made this time around, with the hero of Rangers’ win over St Mirren left out.
Rangers stars Goldson, Jack in but no room for match-winner
Steven Gerrard’s side weren’t quite at their best on Sunday, so it’s not overly surprising that the side isn’t full of Gers.
Just like last week, two are named. Centre-back Connor Goldson, and central midfielder, Ryan Jack.
Jack had a strong outing and in general, looks to be at the top of his game right now. His inclusion was justified.
Connor Goldson’s selection, though, is more of a head-scratcher. Sure, Rangers kept a clean sheet at St Mirren, but the home side didn’t offer much going forward.
When they did, the new defensive partnership of Goldson and Filip Helander didn’t always look completely secure, either.
If any member of the Gers’ back four was going to get the nod, surely Borna Barisic deserved it? He may not have had a stellar first half, but ultimately, it was his moment of brilliance which proved the difference between the two sides.
Yet, he was overlooked by the BT Sport duo, who have only included three defenders.
The formation is a top-heavy looking 3-4-3, with St Mirren keeper Hladky included despite not keeping a clean sheet.
Another bizarre inclusion is that of Celtic striker Vikoun Issouf Bayo. He was initially credited with a brace against Hearts on Sunday afternoon before both goals were rightly changed to OGs.
