Barry Ferguson wants Rangers to play anti-football against Liverpool to try and get a Champions League point on Wednesday night. And don’t get me wrong, I know where my pal and former team-mate is coming from. But I prefer to look at it this way.
With Gio van Bronckhorst’s side so desperate to get off the mark in this group - why not go for all three? And to have any chance of doing that, one man has to start at Ibrox. I’m not going to try and pick Gio’s line-up or his formation. And if Fergie wants a back five again, just like at Anfield, I’m not disagreeing with him. But for me, whatever shape Gio goes for against Jurgen Klopp’s men - Scott Arfield MUST be deployed within it.
If Rangers want to take anything from this game, he should be one of the first name’s on the manager’s team-sheet. They need a goal. Whether it’s Alfredo Morelos or Antonio Colak up front, it doesn’t really matter. But they need someone else to provide a threat.
