Confirmed Rangers starting XI v Dunfermline
Rangers have confirmed their starting XI for the Premier Sports Cup clash with Dunfermline this evening.
Steven Gerrard has introduced the likes of Nathan Patterson and Kemar Roofe, who have yet to start games this season.
Confirmed on their official Twitter account prior to kick-off, the Bears have welcomed back the likes of Jack Simpson.
This is exactly what everyone wanted to see.
Gerrard promised an experienced side to bounce back, and that is what he has delivered to the fans heading to Ibrox.
John Lundstram starting is a huge boost for the midfielder, who has struggled in his start to life in all competitions.
A big performance and possibly even a goal would certainly help his confidence massively moving forward.
Reaction.
This week is all about bouncing back.
We have all been left gutted by losing our huge streak against Dundee United, and that wasn’t helped by the massive defeat against Malmo.
No one expected both to happen, especially with the way both games were playing out at the times of all the goals conceded.
The Bears can’t feel sorry for themselves though, and have to act as though this is another Champions League-level tie.
Dunfermline may fancy their chances after this week, but it’s time to take that hope away from them in the opening seconds.
