You can’t imagine Giovanni van Bronckhorst standing for the pre-match preparations these days. But he certainly would take the result of Rangers’ one and only trip to Anfield in their history as he prepares to take on Liverpool in the Champions League.

The light blue legions are licking their lips at the prospect of a match against Jurgen Klopp’s side as they prepare to take on the Merseyside giants in the Champions League.
