'Very clever', 'Kent's wake-up call', 'Trust the management' - Rangers fans react to team v Royal Antwerp in Europa League
The manager’s decision to bench Ryan Kent – usually a starter – was a topic for discussion, as was the selection of Scott Arfield.
@ruaraidh1985: “Brilliant to see Arfield back. What we’ve been missing recently. Although he’s not been great recently, surprised not to see Kent away from home in Europe. He is more suited to counter attack.”

@roskorfc: “Surprised Kent is dropped for nights when we play on the break.”
@TheRanter2012: “That looks like a very attacking lineup. Big call with Kent but certainly justified.”
@GerUndercover: “Excellent line up. Correct to drop Kent tonight. Alfie and Roofe up front is exciting and hope they combine well. Should be better service to Alfie with this line up. Come on Gers, let’s get the job done and a good performance to match!”
Daniel Lamb: “European teams are more technical so can see why Kamara is in instead of Jack. Kent on the bench was needed but can some on as fresh legs as the game goes on. Trust the management.”
@TGlchrst12: “Hagi and Jack unlucky to miss out, but that bench is the best we've had for a while.”
David Petrie: “I think this is very clever. If it's true about them having eight players out then their starting 11 might not be fully match fit. Can see Kent and Hagi coming on 65th to 70th to cause havoc – unless the game’s already been put to bed then.”
@RabIrvine1: “Think the front three of Aribo, Roofe and Morelos with Scotty Arfield just behind them could be amazing! Not seen that front three combine yet... interesting!”
