Time for Aaron Ramsey to take centre-stage for Rangers in title race
Aaron Ramsey has struggled with fitness since joining Rangers on loan in the January transfer window from Juventus.
The Welsh midfielder is a world-class player, and he could still play a vital role for the Gers as they look to close the gap with Celtic in the title race.
The Bears will face Aberdeen at Ibrox on Saturday (5 March) and Ramsey is reportedly available for selection.
It’s unlikely that he will start the game but Van Bronckhorst will surely look to give him some minutes to regain his sharpness.
So far, he has only managed a full hour against Annan Athletic in the Scottish Cup, but given his wealth of talent and experience, he should be able to make an impact.
Barry Ferguson wrote in his column for The Daily Record that it will be foolish to write Ramsey off, and he is absolutely spot on.
He has got immense quality and all he needs is to get himself fit for the rest of the season. The former Arsenal man could become the Dutchman’s secret weapon.
Even a 70-80% fit Ramsey can make a big difference to the side. He has only a handful of games left at Ibrox, but a strong finish could have big ramifications on his career as well.
Ramsey is not wanted at Juventus and the club are likely to offload him in the summer. However, a strong end to the season could see plenty of clubs vying for his signature.
Put it simply, it is also a personal battle for him. It’s time for him to show his class.
