The Steven Gerrard Rangers theory floated over Alfredo Morelos as Celtic fan thinks he’s cracked the code – Hotline

Rangers fans are convinced the future’s bright after a handful of Giovanni van Bronckhorst ’s next generation of starlets shone against Queen of the South on Tuesday night.

The likes of Leon King and Adam Devine put in fine performances in the Premier Sports Cup win at Ibrox. But Alfredo Morelos remains a talking point and one supporter posed a transfer theory on the Rangers striker. Well, he’s convinced by it anyway.

Stephen Mulhearn, Dumbarton, said: “It’s not the biggest shock to hear Giovanni van Bronckhorst expects Alfredo Morelos to remain at Ibrox after Thursday’s deadline. I’m convinced Steven Gerrard had copious amount of calls from managers down south regarding his opinion of him and the message would have been – don’t touch him with a barge pole. Hence him remaining because he’d spend more time off the park than on it with his disciplinary record.” Now back to those Ibrox kids...

John Bruce emailed: “Rangers, as expected, beat Queen of the South who gave a good account of themselves. Veterans Davies and Arfield strolled the game, but it was the raft of youngsters Gio played who caught the eye. Ure scored in less than 10 minutes, King looks assured beyond his years at centre-back, Devine played well as an attacking full-back and McCann looks every bit as special a talent as Alex Lowry – who has yet to return after suffering that horror challenge in his last game against Dumbarton – whilst the others showed up well in their cameos. With these youngsters, the future is bright.”

Gary Stevenson, Newtonhill, said: “Great to see some of the Rangers youngsters against Queens. So many positives. The future of our club is in safe hands and those youngsters can look forward to winning many trophies in the next five
