Rangers ended their season on a excessive at Hampden however Giovanni van Bronckhorst now has some huge choices to make this summer season. What must be his precedence?
KEITH JACKSON: Give Connor Goldson what he desires to remain, inform Calvin Bassey he’s going nowhere and discover a striker able to filling the boots of Alfredo Morelos. The supervisor has his work minimize out with all three.
DAVID McCARTHY: He’s bought Souttar for Goldson and he’ll have Hagi again for the problematic proper aspect of assault, so for me, he wants an attacking midfielder and one other striker even when Morelos stays. Preserving Bassey, until a ridiculous bid is available in, must be a precedence as effectively.
ANDREW NEWPORT : Tying down his soon-to-be out-of-contract stars Morelos, Kent and Aribo. If that trio - now into the ultimate yr of their offers - are allowed to depart for cut-price charges it should make the required rebuild all of the tougher.
FRASER WILSON: An out and out striker. If the final month has taught him something it's that he's gentle of reliable quantity nines. A left again might be required too if somebody matches the valuation of the excellent Calvin Bassey.
One other cup last sickener for Hearts however will Robbie Neilson take this crew into the Europa League subsequent season?
KEITH: Fingers crossed. The dream situation for Scottish soccer is to have two groups within the Champions League and not less than one within the Europa. Hearts are going locations below Neilson however he wants funding to take them there. They need to speculate to build up within the switch window.
DAVID: It's going to rely upon how sort the draw is within the qualifiers however having the protection internet of the Europa Convention League is huge. Neilson’s recruitment has been good, so there’s no motive to suppose they received’t be wonderful subsequent season.
ANDREW: They should be extra adventurous than they had been at Hampden to have any probability. Failing to hit the goal towards a aspect who’d simply gone 120 minutes in searing Spanish warmth is poor going. The EL qualifiers received’t be simple however you’ll get nowhere should you die questioning.
FRASER: It is determined by the luck of the draw within the play-offs as there’s all the time an array of massive golf equipment in there. I reckon they’ll be making use of the fallback Convention League group stage and, in the event that they recruit effectively, they need to go all out to qualify for the knockout phases.
Are St Johnstone going to be enjoying high flight soccer subsequent season?
KEITH: No. They’ve been flirting with the notion of happening all season and their bottle crashed spectacularly within the Highlands after they had survival of their palms. All of it provides as much as unhealthy information for Callum Davidson and his gamers.
DAVID: In all probability, but when they do they are going to be fortunate. Ending second backside, then blowing a two-goal lead towards an ICT crew that has now performed 5 play-off video games, is fairly poor. In the event that they survive, an unlimited enchancment is required subsequent season.
ANDREW: It’s wanting regarding for Callum Davidson’s males. They haven’t bought going in any respect this season and have now blown a two-goal lead within the Highlands. I can see the A9 changing into even busier with Premiership day-trippers subsequent season.
FRASER: Sure. However boy are they making a meal of survival. For an hour in Inverness they had been streets forward of the Championship challengers earlier than inexplicably sitting off their opponents. Classes will certainly have been realized and the job accomplished in Perth tonight.

It’s all about Scotland now however the accidents are piling up for Steve Clarke. Have any darkish horses performed their approach into his squad for the World Cup play off?
KEITH: Ross Stewart has performed his approach into rivalry and Scott Wright might have carried out sufficient to pressure his approach in too. However, with Nathan Patterson out of motion, Aaron Hickey may simply have arrived on Scotland’s scene at precisely the proper time.
DAVID:John Souttar and Craig Halkett had been immense at Hampden and are value remembers however in any other case I don’t see too many charging in from the fringes.
ANDREW: Scott Wright has carried out his probabilities of a primary call-up no hurt along with his performances in Seville and at Hampden. It’s taken the Ibrox winger time to persuade Gio van Bronckhorst however he’s within the type of his life proper now.
FRASER: All season I’ve thought Ross Stewart at Sunderland is deserving of a call-up and his play-off last aim reveals he's nonetheless in high kind. If a left centre half is required to cowl Kieran Tierney then Stephen Kingsley at Hearts is an effective shout.
