'Aribo was a god at left-back last time', 'Want to get 100 points', 'McLaughlin deserves credit': Rangers fans react to Steven Gerrard's line-up vs Livingston

Most focus was on the left-back position with Borna Barisic ruled out through injury.

From the selection, it seemed Joe Aribo would replace the Croatian – but it was nevertheless a strong side from Steven Gerrard.

@AndyDocherty13: “Wow, Aribo at LB. Wonder if anyone told Gerrard he could have experimented with formations at this stage.... Maybe 3412.”

@Loganmac_17: “Aribo LB, means we’re getting another Braga-esque goal.”

@cjnovo992: “When I started reading down the teamsheet and didn't see McGregor I thought for a second he was playing LB.”

@h_alexander11o4: “The last time Aribo played left back he was god against Braga if i remember correctly.”

@cp310104: “Would’ve been nice to see Leon King get a game but appreciate the want to get 100 points

@onlyoneamoruso: “Down to bare bones on the bench. I hope Leon King gets a few minutes.”

@Fake_Jamie: “McLaughlin deserves a lot of credit for this season. Played more than we all thought and he's been solid.”

@RampantRyanJack: “Just don’t lose lads. Please?”
