‘Buzzing’, ‘OMG yes’ – Many Rangers fans thrilled at ‘superb news’ coming from Ibrox
Steven Gerrard confirmed that Scott Arfield is ready to resume training at the end of the week and Rangers fans are absolutely delighted.
Gerrard said that he should be fit for the Europa League knockout games against Antwerp, with the first game being played in Belgium a fortnight on Thursday.
The return fixtures plays at Ibrox just a week later as the fixtures start to ramp up again.
Gerrard delivered the big fitness update in his pre-match press conference on Tuesday.
Rangers have coped brilliantly without Arfield and Ryan Jack, two of their most important midfielders.
Arfield has been sidelined since Boxing Day when he picked up an ankle injury in the game against Hibs.
He won’t be back for the game against St Johnstone tomorrow but fans know how important it is to get him back for what’s set to be the biggest test of the season, the doubleheader against Antwerp.
Arfield has played a big part in the European adventure this season, starting five and playing in all six of the group games.
And his return could see the Gers squad back to full fitness just at the right time.
Here are the excited reactions from Rangers fans…
