Steven Gerrard raves about Rangers defender Connor Goldson

Glasgow Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has showered praise on Connor Goldson and admitted that persuading him to join the Ibrox club became easier as he is a Liverpool supporter.

Gerrard is a Liverpool legend and Goldson could hardly refuse the chance to tee up with him, especially when the new Gers boss made a 500-mile round trip to speak to him about a potential move.

The Rangers boss was rewarded with a cup of tea and the signing which is arguably his best summer buy. The Gers have gone 10 games unbeaten in all competitions, and Goldson has played a massive role in that.
