Jermain Defoe got feelings of time's past when pulling on his Rangers colours again - but the same excited feeling doesn't follow him to a managerial opportunity currently on the go.
The forward scored for a Light Blues legends side during the international break in a charity match versus at World XI at Ibrox. It was a chance for Defoe - who retired last year after leaving the club for a short stint at Sunderland - to run out in Glasgow again and he admits it was a thrill to get into his matchday mentality again.
A loud Ibrox made his day all much sweeter and he told his Outside The Box podcast it was an experience he appreciated. Defoe explained: "I was buzzing as I flew up the night before the game and I remember getting in the hotel, having something to eat. All of a sudden I got these feelings back. I don't know how to explain it, a mentality shift, I don't know, the focus. Even though it was an exhibition, you speak to any player, no game is a friendly and you want to score.
