John Lundstram was the “best on earth” in the eyes of Rangers fans last season as he was rewarded with a terrace chant in an adapted version of Belinda Carlisle’s 1987 hit due to his key role in helping the club reach the Europa League final.
But supporters’ opinions can change very quickly and one disgruntled punter shared a statistic from the Scouser’s time at Ibrox which has left a few fellow fans in shock as he revealed how the midfielder has managed just ONE assist in almost two full seasons.
And even then the 29-year-old set up Cedric Itten for the third goal in a 4-0 Scottish Cup stroll against Stirling Albion in the fourth round last season. That is one assist in 93 games which has raised a few eyebrows but some hit back at criticism, saying his position as a defensive midfielder - and often deployed at centre back - means that they wouldn’t expect much more.
