Rangers secured a comfortable 4-0 victory away against Ross County on Wednesday night but much of the talk pre-match was about Steven Gerrard’s chosen line-up and some noticeable absentees.

Rumours had circulated before the match that Ryan Kent wasn’t on the team bus and Gary McAllister confirmed in the pre-match press conference that Allan McGregor was a doubt after he landed awkwardly in the weekend win over Motherwell.
Sheyi Ojo and Scott Arfield were recalled to the starting line-up, which raised a few eyebrows as both players have been under fire recently for below-par performances. Arfield, although never short on work rate, has not looked himself after his return from international duty in the summer with Canada.
Ojo has made a few important contributions but lately both his work rate and ability has been questioned.
These Rangers fans weren’t happy with the line-up when it was announced and took to Twitter to vent their frustration:
What does Ojo need to do to not be included?

It looks like the Ojo loan is one of those has to play a certain amount of games things .

Soon as Ojo gets clattered off one of those big farmers I hope he doesn’t do another disappearing act

Struggle to create with that team.
