This weekend, Rangers took a huge step toward’s their 55th league title after beating their rivals in the league at Parkhead. The win puts them just two points behind the league leaders with a game in hand.
After the match, there were numerous Rangers players who celebrated the victory on Twitter. Joe Aribo tweeted out to fans after the match. The supporters were very complimentary of the player’s performance, pointing out one moment in particular when he took a stellar touch. Another suggests that Charlton Athletic will be kicking themselves for letting such a good player go. In their eyes, Aribo is starting to really settle down in Scottish football.
Joe lad. That touch…

Another sterling performance Joe. Since playing further up up the pitch you’ve been amazing. Way better than @SkyBetChamp level. @CAFCofficial must be kicking themselves!! Top player for @RangersFC in the @EuropaLeague and @spfl

What is Joe Aribo's best position?
Midfield
Right-wing
Other fans thank Aribo, explaining just how much the win against Celtic means to them.
Thank you Joe! You dont know what that meant to a lot of people! Have a happy new year friend, We are the people!

What do we think?
Aribo has, over the last few weeks, become an increasingly more important player for Gerrard. Should he continue to perform as he did against Celtic, he will be a huge asset to the side who will be looking for their 55th league title at the end of the season.
