Rangers manager Steven Gerrard complained of his side "playing the movie so many times" when it comes to fixing a sloppy rearguard.
But a particular blooper is occurring rather often in the Gers back four that has already cost the title hopefuls some valuable points and kept Celtic and the rest within touching distance early on in the season.
It's no secret that the Ibrox side are looking more suspect defensively this term.
While that back-line perhaps hasn't ventured into 'porous' territory yet there are certainly a few leaks and one of the most obvious comes from the right side.
And it's a man who could do hardly any wrong last term, James Tavernier, who has been at fault for a number of crucial goals.
The right-back's contribution on the attacking end remains high with his jaw-dropping strike against St Johnstone earlier this month a clear example.
But while the captain was impervious in defence in 2020-21, he's been at fault for a number of goals so far and it's a developing pattern as fans ponder if young Nathan Patterson should be given an extended starting run.
Take Dundee United's winner in the shock 1-0 defeat last month at Tannadice as a first example.
Jamie Robson is allowed to venture unchallenged into a massive gap created by Tavernier's lack of awareness.
Tavernier switches target and chases after Adrian Sporle but the United man is able to get away and, one lucky deflection off Steven Davis later, Robson is bearing down on goal uncontested to finish past Jon McLaughlin and end the champions' run of 41 league games without defeat.
The same issue cropped up at the weekend in the 1-1 draw against Graham Alexander's Motherwell.
Having benefitted from some good fortune in Fashion Sakala's opener, a second half strike from Kaiyne Woolery saw Rangers throw away two valuable points on the same day Celtic dropped three at Livingston.
And it was that same chasm on the right side that led to the 68th minute leveller.
This time Goldson is forced across to cover for Tavernier, who is dragged out by Kevin van Veen.
That creates a huge opening between him and his centre-back partner, Jack Simpson, who is unable to recognise the danger and shift across in time.
Mark O'Hara bursts through the gap and while Goldson is able to get a foot to the ball the danger is still present and Woolery is on the scene to smash into the top corner and stun Ibrox.
Two simple goals, both easily remedied.
But it amounts to three big points this early on in the campaign – three that the Invincible champions would have likely swept up.
