KEMAR ROOFE admits it has been easy to settle into the Rangers attack after marking his first start with a goal against Kilmarnock.
The forward replaced Alfredo Morelos in Steven Gerrard’s starting line-up and produced an accomplished showing as he continues to get up to speed at Ibrox.
Roofe opened the scoring early in the second half before Ryan Kent clinched the points for the Light Blues.
And the former Anderlecht star is pleased with his first few weeks at Ibrox following a crucial Premiership victory.
Roofe said: "My first start was good and the most important thing was that we won and got the three points.
“Scoring a goal was a bonus. Getting the minutes was good and it was important to get my fitness up too.
"I am just taking it game by game and see how long I last. There's a high intensity to our game.
"I'm playing with about four very, very creative players so it's a joy to play with this team.
“We play with non-stop movement and the combinations between us are good.
"Yeah, it's been very easy for me [to fit in]. It comes down to the dressing room and the staff. I've been made to feel so welcome and I feel like I have been here for a long time."
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
