Rangers managed to walk away from Ibrox with three points after beating Livingston 1-0. Scott Arfield scored the game’s only goal in the 59th minute to put the home side in front.
Incidentally, Steven Gerrard made his first substitution of the match in the 56th minute when he took off Ryan Kent for Florian Kamberi.
Fans thought the 24-year-old changed the game when he came on. They praised his influence and think he allows Rangers to play in a 4-4-2, something that a few fans mention as being a formation they want Gerrard to utilise more frequently.
We need too play with the 4-4-2 more often thought kamberi changed the game for us today

Andy Prso played well again today but I’ll give it to Mr. Saturday night purely for the goal honestly, Kamberi changed the game when he came on as well, maybe get to see some 2 up top in the future?

Kamberi = staunch

Thought kamberi looked really sharp when he came on, big lad, quick feet.

Kamberi. That is all.

Kamberi looked good today imo

Would Rangers have won without Kamberi coming on so early?
No
Yes
I thought we were good 2nd half when we went two up front. Kamberi wasn’t my first choice to bring in but he put a good shift in today.

Kamberi did look good. A lot better than Morelos today. He deserves some game time. McGregor kicked a ball to him. He chested it, with a Livi player on him trying to get a coal carry. Chest to foot and made the pass. What a play

What do we think?
With Jermain Defoe out injured, Kamberi’s inclusion in the team could be massive. So far Rangers have heavily relied on Alfredo Morelos and Defoe for goals, with the pair scoring a combined 46 goals this season. With Morelos failing to score in the league since 2019, Kamberi, who is valued at £675k (as per Transfermarkt), may play a big part in the Gers’ season going forward.
