Rohl To Ring In The Changes?

Steven Gerrard is set to shake up his Rangers squad as he prepares for the trip to St Mirren Stadium. The Ibrox boss has identified several areas where improvement is needed, and a change in formation could be on the cards. A 4-2-3-1 system has been recommended by some pundits, which would see a more attacking approach with a lone striker up front. Gerrard’s team selection for the match against St Mirren is likely to feature a mix of experience and youth. The midfield trio of Joe Aribo, John Lundstram, and Ryan Kent are expected to control the tempo of the game, while James Sands and Filip Helander will look to provide defensive solidity at the back. In front of them, the attacking quartet of Brandon Barker, Ryan Hardgrave, and Allan Campbell will be tasked with causing problems for the Saints’ defence. The lone striker, either Charlie Paterson or an out-of-form Alfredo Morelos, will lead the line in a bid to exploit St Mirren’s vulnerable backline. Gerrard is also expected to make some tactical substitutions at halftime, which could see the introduction of fresh legs and new ideas. If Rangers can get their game plan right, they may be able to secure a crucial three points against their local rivals.
