PETER LOVENKRANDS wasn’t surprised to see boss Steven Gerrard stealing the show at Ibrox after he made his first appearance in a Rangers jersey on Saturday.
The Liverpool icon played the final minutes of the Legends match as Rangers - who scored through Lovenkrands and Kris Boyd - lost 3-2.
The Dane, a Gers coach at Under-20s level, faces Gerrard at the Hummel Training Centre and told RangersTV: “You could see that he was pulling the strings for the team in the middle.
“I was a wee bit gutted I had to come off and I wasn’t on when he came on because in the staff game we link up really well. It was a wee bit gutting I didn’t get the chance to do that here.
“You can see that he can still play. With the mentality that he has and the way he is, he is fit and his touch is still there. He is a top player.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
