The Rangers development squad has been in action today with them facing FC Copenhagen.
After last weekend, too, it might be a good time for some of the players that have featured to really stake a claim to play in the first team and it’ll be interesting to see if any make the step up.
One man who’ll be closer to doing that than most, though, is Jordan Rossiter with him getting 70 minutes under his belt before getting subbed.
Let’s take a look at reaction from our fans to that news, then:

65' Jordan Rossiter with a well-timed slide tackle stops a Copenhagen counter attack. 2-1

Definitely injured again.

Who?

He’s played 70 minutes, I imagine this is just part of his comeback

Precautionary I hope.

The Verdict
I’d love to see Rossiter back in the side before too long because he’s the kind of player I’m a big fan of.
He gets straight into challenges and wears his heart on his sleeve whilst he can play a bit too.
Certainly, it might be too early for him to play this weekend but I do think – providing he’s all good after this game – we’ll see him back in action before too long.
Thoughts, Gers? Let us know below!
