After a nervy match against Motherwell last week, Rangers were back to flying form against Ross County in a 4-0 win at the Global Energy Stadium. It was a complete team performance with so many players putting in quality performances.
But with so many great players on the day, Rangers’ Twitter account turned to the fans to find out who their Man of the Match was. There were a few names mentioned, like goalkeeper Wes Foderingham, Alfredo Morelos and Joe Aribo, but the one name that was consistently brought up was Ryan Jack.
Do you need to ask? Ryan Jack

Ryan Jack but special mention to our captain who I thought was excellent @James_Tavernier

It’s not hard to imagine why Jack’s name was continuously brought up. The player bagged two goals in a 63-minute appearance for the Gers. Jack’s only other goal this season came against St. Joseph’s FC in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers. This brings his goal scoring tally for Rangers to seven, while previously only scoring 11 in 250 appearances for Aberdeen (transfermarkt.co.uk).
What do we think?
While Jack is an obvious choice for Man of the Match award, the impressive team performance displayed by Steven Gerrard’s team will likely be the most meaningful thing in the eyes of the supporters. With a cup game against Hearts at the weekend and Porto midweek, the Gers must be on their best form if they want to achieve wins in both matches.
