Rangers when he crosses the finishing line in this year's title race.The ex-England right-back knows all about the links to Liverpool that always follow his old mucker due to an intense connection with his boyhood club.But given timing is everything in football, Johnson feels it's not the only role that could tempt Gerrard away from Glasgow.Despite an enticing Champions League incentive to remain in Govan he believes the manager's camp may be open to "big" offers in the summer.And that's because what he will achieve this season in winning the Ibrox club's 55th title AND stopping Ten In A Row is so momentous can't be topped.He told Betting Expert: "I never doubted that Gerrard would be a top manager and the fact he’s done so well at Rangers

Rangers and the pivotal role played by Celtic legend Kenny Dalglish. King has revealed the seeds of Rangers’ impending historic title triumph were sown in the aftermath of yet another defeat at the hands of their rivals.He had watched Rangers slip to a 3-2 loss in 2018 and was still agonising over his next step as Graeme Murty tried to manfully steer the ship temporarily after the disastrous reign of Pedro Caixinha.King eyed Steven Gerrard in the Ibrox directors’ box, popped over for a chat and unbeknown to him the wheels were set in motion to make him the boss.King said: “I talk about the randomness of life and it’s what you do with it.“Steven came to a Rangers-Celtic game at Ibrox when he was youth team manager at Liverpool.

Scottish Premiership finish line according to pundit Stephen Craigan.Steven Gerrard's side have been in imperious form this season, dropping just six points as they remain unbeaten in the league.Two of those dropped points came against Hamilton on Sunday though, with goalkeeper Allan McGregor admitting his side were "rubbish".Asked on Go Radio about that perfomance Craigan said: "They looked a little bit laboured, their play was slow."I felt as if on Sunday there was a lack of risk in their play."What I mean by that is the players in the final third, rather than just playing safe passes, go and get at your opponent."It's one area of the pitch where Rangers were very good up until Christmas - they got at teams, they took men on."I see Ryan

Billy Gilmour would be a "win-win" for the Premiership leaders and Chelsea.Gilmour left the club back in 2017 aged just 15 and is highly thought of at Stamford Bridge, with past manager Frank Lampard a massive fan in particular.New boss Thomas Tuchel is yet to give him the same opportunities in southwest London but the midfielder did make his first matchday squad under the German on Sunday night against Sheffield United.Gilmour was linked with a loan move back across the border at the end of the January but Steven Gerrard played down those claims and in any case the 19-year-old didn't go anywhere.But Laudrup is still intrigued by the link for next season - insisting Rangers will have another edge with the possibility of Champions League

Rangers after an abject draw with Hamilton.The Premiership champions elect were well below par in Lanarkshire and had goalkeeper Allan McGregor to thank for saving a point.Manager Steven Gerrard laid into his team after the match, and Caldwell believes that the 21-point gap at the top may have relaxed some minds.With a European clash with Royal Antwerp looming though, Rangers will have to snap out of it quickly. Caldwell said on Football Pass: "I think actually the Europa League starting back up again could be a good thing to focus the minds again and get them into a different competition where they have to be at their best.

Steven Gerrard must convince Allan McGregor to extend his deal with Rangers or risk paying out an "absolute fortune" in a replacement claims Barry Ferguson.The veteran goalkeeper is out of contract at Ibrox this summer and could cement his place as a Light Blues legend by bringing the Premiership trophy back to Govan.However, former teammate Ferguson believes it is vital that gaffer Gerrard can convince the 39-year-old to remain with the club for another season.Ferguson reckons McGregor has only got better with age and will only continue to improve after his heroics against Hamilton.“I hope he doesn’t decide to call it a day at the end of the season," he told the Go Radio Football Show."I know he’s 39 now but he looks to me as fit as he’s

SFA’s car crash of a compliance process.The clattering furore caused by the lamentable let’s-make-it-up-as-we-go-along handling of incidents involving Alfredo Morelos, Darren McGregor, Scott Brown and Albian Ajeti may have drowned out the message or at least distracted attention away from its significance.But, nonetheless, something Steven Gerrard said in passing last week, when he called for a greater level of consistency from those inside Hampden’s nerve centre, struck straight to the heart of his own blossoming as a Rangers manager.“I think as a club it’s something we’ve spoken about in great detail.
