Former Celtic manager Ronny Deila reckons Rangers target Nicolas Raskin is a 'monster' on the pitch and should have played at the World Cup for Belgium.
Rangers have reportedly resurrected their interest in the Standard Liege midfielder, who has been frozen out at the club after refusing to sign a new deal. Standard boss Deila, who was in charge at Parkhead for two years, has dumped Raskin in the reserves under instructions of the club and has made it clear he won't play for him again unless he signs a new deal.
But he's previously stressed how much he rates the 21-year-old as a player, after Deila joined the Belgian club in the summer. And he reckons former Belgium boss Roberto Martinez made a big mistake not taking Raskin to Qatar for the World Cup. He said: "Nicolas Raskin is a monster on the pitch and has been so good for me since I came to the club.
