The 22-year-old scored his fifth goal of the campaign for the Scottish Premiership side to wrap up a 4-0 victory over St. Mirren.
Reds legend and Rangers boss Gerrard declared his satisfaction with Kent’s latest display post-match but insisted the forward can further increase his contribution.
“He’s been excellent for us,” Gerrard told RangersTV. “He’s in good form, he’s happy but I’m going to keep pushing him because I want him to be hungrier to score more goals and I want him to keep being hungry to improve his numbers.
“He could have got two goals, maybe three, so it was a good performance and I think he’s got Man of the Match, but for me it’s my job to push him and that’s what I’ll do.
