In transition it looked as if Genk could have scored a few more goals. It felt almost inevitable Oh was going to put one in the back of the net. Rangers are not in a great place and the performance embodied that.
It’s a crowd now who are so disillusioned with what’s going on here.

You don’t see any signs of really what Russell Martin is trying to implement. He talks about dominating the ball and having possession, but it isn’t with any great purpose.
John Souttar and Derek Cornelius must pass the ball to each other I don’t know how many times without it actually going up the pitch.

The onus has to be on the players as well. The transfer of the ball through the thirds is so laborious. The supporters are urging the players to do things quicker, and they’re just not.
Everything is so predictable and so slow in the build-up that it’s easy to defend against. How long are we going to keep hearing ‘We’re going to get there’ for?
Former Rangers midfielder Derek Ferguson on BBC Sportsound
Rangers went down with a whimper. The feeling within the stadium is there is no belief from the players.
There is no evidence in that performance that Rangers are getting there. Genk were going through the motions, they were in control, even if Rangers kept 11 men on the field. Fans can’t keep coming to watch a Rangers side accept defeat like that.
There is a way of winning, and a way of losing. That’s not the way you lose a football game.
Ex-Rangers midfielder Andy Halliday on BBC Sportsound
Rangers didn’t make Genk defend at any point. It was another underwhelming performance. I’m not seeing enough that suggests there’s going to be an improvement by the time they travel to Sturm Graz in two weeks two.
Former Rangers striker Ally McCoist on TNT Sports
With the greatest respect, Genk are bang average. Rangers didn’t pose them anywhere near enough problems. Previous Rangers sides would’ve wiped the floor with them.
