Ben Davies in defiant Rangers verdict as defender takes 'a bit of pride' from Liverpool disappointment

Annihilated in Amsterdam, nobbled by Napoli and now clamped in front of the Kop.

It’s been a bruising return to the Champions League for Rangers and the worrying news for the Ibrox faithful is that they’re only at the Group A midway point. Pointless and without a goal to their name, the growing concern is that this campaign could end up with the Light Blues sporting faces redder than the blur of scarlet kits that swarmed past them time and time again at Anfield.

Gio van Bronckhorst ’s team can at least look to the home comforts presented by the fact two of their final three games in the section are at Ibrox. First up is Liverpool next Wednesday, with Ajax then in Glasgow at the start of November a week after Gers head to Naples for a showdown with Luciano Spalletti’s sizzling Serie A leaders, a game in truth the fans can see far enough off. But while the punters are preparing to watch the final three games from behind the sofa, Ben Davies is refusing to take elimination sitting down.
