Calvin Bassey admits he will let his former Rangers pals recover from their hiding in Holland before passing on his best wishes.
It was a miserable reunion for the Ibrox side as they came face to face with the breakout star of last year’s incredible Europa League run. Bassey won his £20million move to Ajax on the back of that Seville surge but has remained close with his former team-mates, even visiting them in Eindhoven ahead of last month’s play-off win over PSV.
But he admits the aftermath of Wednesday night’s Champions League pummelling was not the time for a fresh catch-up. He said: "I didn't think I could just message them just like that tonight. I'll give them a day. It just depends on how they are. I haven't seen them for a while. Obviously I'm buzzing on one side but (on the other) I can't explain it, it's a weird feeling.
