Rangers may live to regret not acquiring Bojan Miovski or Lawrence Shankland, according to reports,
and Cyriel Dessers might be too unpredictable to count on in a competition for the Scottish Premiership title.
Following a sharp upswing in performance just before Christmas, last week’s 2-1 victory over Aberdeen represented a regression to the
trend. Rangers made very hard work of Neil Warnock’s deep-lying Dons thanks to the clinical play of Cyriel Dessers, who was back to
seizing opportunities despite wastefulness and indiscretion.
games. In comparison, Aberdeen’s own Bojan Miovski and Lawrence Shankland have 13 and 17,
respectively, and have broken the 20-goal mark in all competitions.
In addition, former Scotland international Charlie Mulgrew speculates in an interview with Clyde Super Scoreboard whether Rangers’
failure to sign a new striker on the Glasgow side of the city may result in the trophy
being covered in green and white ribbons once more come May.
Rangers still relying on Cyriel Dessers
In my opinion, Dessers appears to require three opportunities to score. Three or four opportunities,” Mulgrew claims. “I wouldn’t like
him to score if they hit the balls over the top in behind for Dessers.
“And I believe they made a mistake by not signing Bojan Miovski or Lawrence Shankland.”
Miovski, who Sky Sports estimates is worth almost £8 million, was always going to be too expensive for Rangers to sign in the winter
transfer window. The division’s Golden Boot leader, Shankland, would have come at a similarly high cost. CEO Andrew McKinlay
stated that a Premiership club wishing to sign the prolific goal scorer away from Hearts
would need to fork over a national record £4.5 million.
Philippe Clement’s side can go top tonight
Tonight, the Rangers take on Ross County at Ibrox; Dessers is probably going to start again because Danilo is still sidelined. Clement’s
club will tie Old Firm rivals Celtic at the summit with a victory over a team in second place.
If Rangers defeat Ross County by more than two goals in the clear, they might potentially take the lead.
