Mick McCarthy helped get his career back on track - now Andy Liddel expects Tom Lawrence to make a big impact at former rivals Rangers.
The former Celtic defender brought the Welsh international to Ipswich Town on loan for the 2016/17 Championship season, his fourth temporary spell away from Leicester City. He hit the ground running and ended that campaign with an impressive 11 goals and 11 assists, earning a move to Derby County, where he spent five years before joining Rangers this summer.
Lawrence's early impressions have got Ibrox fans excited ahead of this weekend's Premiership opener against Livingston and upcoming Champions League qualifiers, and Liddel isn't surprised. The ex-Scotland youth international says he saw enough in one year working with Lawrence at Ipswich in his role as a fitness coach to see big things awaited him.
