Ryan Jack continued his string of impressive performances on the weekend against Hamilton. The midfielder opened the game’s scoring in the seventh minute, paving the way for the team’s 3-1 victory.
But his influence on the game was bigger than just the goal. Jack bossed the midfield expertly. Fans were thrilled with the Scotsman’s performance with one fan account, Ibrox Rocks, suggesting that he must ask for more from the players around him. They believe he is dragging the team through games.
Hes grabbing games by the scruff of the neck and hes dictating games now which is something he never done 18 months ago.

Ryan Jack has been running the show. Need more from Arfield and Kamara.

And while one fan believes Jack can score from anywhere within 30 yards of the net, another thinks he has been the player of the season so far. They think English clubs could have Jack on their radar.
Ryan Jack adding goals to his game has made him a superb midfielder. Looks a real threat anywhere from 30 yards out

My player of the season so far, wouldn’t be surprised if clubs down south are looking at Jack

Some supporters believe Jack’s performances are akin to that of Barry Ferguson, who featured 195 times for Rangers. They see real parallels between how the two players stamp their marks on games.
He’s dragging us through games like Barry use to.

It looks like Barry Ferguson has finally come back reincarnated ?

Has Ryan Jack done enough to be compared to Barry Ferguson yet?
Yes
No
What do we think?
Jack has certainly performed well for Steven Gerrard this season. The English manager will hope the midfielder can continue this string of impressive performances for the remainder of the season. If he can, the Gers could go on to win their 55th league title.
