I see a Rangers front 4 to reckon with and Danilo brings a spark Dessers doesn't possess – Kenny Miller

For Philippe Clement to achieve what he wants at Rangers, he has to find a No.9.

For how he wants to play and the style he’s trying to implement at Ibrox, the new manager needs a proper centre-forward. And right now, as I’ve said before in this column, Cyriel Dessers doesn’t look up to the task in hand. That was evident again with his performance against Sparta Prague on Thursday night.

So Clement must find another solution Let’s be honest, he has to find someone who can somehow try and replicate what Kyogo Furuhashi is doing on the other side of the city. And the one guy who looks like he might be capable is Danilo. Now, not for one minute am I comparing the Brazilian with Celtic’s Japanese forward.

That would be crazy because Kyogo has bagged 61 goals in just over two seasons at Parkhead – and he’s had spells out injured as well. He proved his worth to Brendan Rodgers again during the week by scoring again in the Champions League against Atletico Madrid. Danilo has miles to go before he can be mentioned in Kyogo’s company. But the bottom line is, Rangers shelled out £6million for him from Feyenoord in the summer. So Clement SHOULD be able to rely on him.

He hasn’t started many games. But when he was given the chance against St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park recently, he scored and looked the part. Unfortunately, he got
