The sky-high demands of the Rangers fans are no surprise for a man who came through the ranks at one of the biggest clubs in the world with the expectations to match.
Malik Tillman didn’t need to be told the pressure was on Gers at the weekend as he hopped out of the Bayern Munich frying pan and into the Glasgow fire. The playmaker understands it’s win at all costs at these kinds of clubs – and even then, it might not be enough.
Fans expect to be entertained as well – which is why Tillman was thrilled to get Ibrox bouncing like a Bavarian beer hall again on Saturday. The borrowed Bayern youngster could have been forgiven for wondering what the fuss was about. Getting booed after beating Dundee. Jeered in the wake of a draw with Livingston. Questions being asked about the manager’s future. Talk of Aberdeen at the weekend being a must-win.
