This week Rangers fans reacted to a picture posted by Nathan Oduwa on Twitter.
The 24-year-old posted a photo of himself during his time at Rangers. The post followed the same format that many professional players are using to share photos at the moment. The format calls for footballing people to post a footballing photo with no context.
The photo itself shows Oduwa gaining some serious air after jumping to avoid a tackle from Ayr United’s Alan Trouten.
Many Gers fans shared a chuckle at the photo, poking fun at the harsh challenges often seen in the Scottish game. They praise the player, claiming that he had a lot of natural skill. Some think it was the unnecessary physicality of other teams that drove the winger away. Here are a few of their responses.
It was a joy to watch you play for @RangersFC just a shame the hammer throwers, and thugs chased you out the game up here. Always welcome to come back & catch a game. Once a bear, always a bear. Wish you well for your future.

Would you take Nathan Oduwa back at Rangers?
Yes
No
What do we think?
Oduwa spent a half a season on loan at Rangers back in the 2015/16 season, making the move up north from Tottenham Hotspurs’ U21 program.
It appears as though the player made a good impression on the Rangers faithful in his short spell with the club though.
