Michael Beale has detailed the huge role Kemar Roofe has to play at Rangers as he revealed the 'big hole' he has left for the returning star.
Injuries have hampered his time at the Light Blues of late but he is over his latest issue and working hard to return to full fitness. He came off the bench in last week's win over Dundee United at Tannadice and is sure to be part of the squad that faces Aberdeen in the Viaplay Cup semi-final at Hampden later today. The winner will advance to the final and meet holders Celtic who defeated Kilmarnock 2-0 at the same ground last night.
Beale is a huge fan of Roofe and believes when fit and healthy, he will slot right into his starting squad. Just four weeks ago he was the best player in training 'by a distance' but suffered a calf problem the day before a game which changed plans in what the Rangers gaffer described as 'devastating' for himself and his coaching team.
