Description

With Liverpool sitting top of the Premier League with four wins from four, Reds supporters can now sit back, relax and watch an Old Firm derby between Celtic and Rangers that they have more than a vested interest in.Sunday’s showdown represents Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard’s first experience of one of the biggest matches in world football since taking over the Ibrox hotseat in the summer.And, if any was needed, extra spice is added by the fact that the person in the opposite dugout will be Brendan Rodgers, Gerrard’s final manager at Liverpool and the man who has led Celtic to back-to-back domestic trebles.But, as the guest of our latest podcast explains, Gerrard’s arrival in Glasgow has transformed Rangers and, for the first time in years, Celtic can feel their rivals breathing down their neck.Jonny McFarlane works for the Daily Record, and produces and presents the Record Rangers and The Transfer Window podcasts, and he spoke to us on Friday after Rangers secured their place in the Europa League group stages with a remarkable win over Ufa that was achieved in spite of the fact they finished the second leg in Russia with nine men.Jonny talks the impact Gerrard has made north of the border, how Liverpool loanees Ovie Ejaria and Ryan Kent are getting on at Rangers, the influence of two of his former managers at Anfield, and of course, his crunch clash with another.Enjoy.
