CoplandRoad83 3,263 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Thinking of seeing the likes of Di Maria (albeit a bit of a prick) at Ibrox later, got me thinking. Who have been the best opposition players we've seen at Ibrox in this amazing recent era of European success since the Gerrard days? Always remember likes of Del Piero, Mendieta, Riquelme when growing up, but have any stood out recently? A few that spring to mind: Bellingham Firmino - thought he looked class that night to be fair Salah - horrifyingly easy cameo vs Borna Midfielder for Braga, maybe captain but can't remember his name? There must be more, but probably testament to how well we've played at home that not many are standing out. Negri's lovechild 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few of the 'big' names' attitudes have stunk, but he was spot on. You don't sometimes appreciate how good these guys are until you see them in person Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

siamthedanger 2,855 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Bellingham for me, such a class act. Thought Harvey Elliot looked good for Liverpool as well(although I try to forget everything about that night). Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellingham is one of the best midfielders in the world, seeing him at Ibrox and loving the place, liking Ally McCoist, just him being starstruck with us, that's a better memory 😂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not entirely, pepe was brilliant the first first half when they played 3 at the back iirc, but an injury meant they switched to 4 at the back and he was less effective marking morelos in the 2nd half hence how we managed the win in the 2nd half Assegai 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

plymouthranger 3,873 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Darwin Nunez was pretty spectacular against us.
