00:00Hello and welcome to Glasgow World's Fitbit Talk, the round-up of Rangers Celtic and any

00:05other news from across the Scottish football landscape involving Scotland's two biggest

00:10clubs and they were back in action this weekend and we'll move on to Rangers now, obviously

00:17their 4-3-1 Premiership is a bit new for them at this point, they know they're going to

00:22finish second, they know they're not going to finish first, it's very much about trying

00:26to end the season positively and I suppose for Barry Ferguson to put himself in the best

00:30possible shape for possibly giving himself a chance of becoming the permanent manager

00:35at the end of the season, in a competitive sense I suppose the big thing will be athletic

00:41Bilbao in just over a week's time. But in terms of the weekend, Sadio Desar is again

00:49continuing to confuse and baffle, I think I've seen somebody say online that if you

00:57give Sadio Desar 10 chances he'll be dangerous and as much as he does take a bit of criticism

01:06from time to time, he has now scored 45 goals in 100 Rangers appearances, I think that puts

01:13him in brackets with names such as Alfredo Morelos for the amount of goals scored in

01:18the first 100 Rangers games. There's been a bit of speculation on his future but at

01:26the same time just as you think he's not cutting it here, he steps up and I think the one thing

01:32you can say about Sadio Desar is he's got a lot of ball about him because he has been

01:37lambasted for large spells of his time at Rangers yet he seems like the only one in

01:43that time he seems capable of, you know you're going to get 15-20 goals a season now.

01:48Yeah he's the ultimate enigma isn't he, I do feel he's got a part to play in this Rangers

01:53team next season going forward, yes obviously his conversion rate is a great deal lower

01:59than it probably ought to be given the amount of chances that he does miss but if you look

02:04at his goalscoring record I think that's kind of partly the reason Rangers signed him from

02:07Cremonese because his record in Italy wasn't bad at all you know, yes it should be a lot

02:16higher than it is but I think the one thing that you certainly cannot question is that

02:21relentless work rate, he's got a terrific attitude, he never gives up, yes he scores

02:27and kind of fits in spurts but I guess in terms of the long-term outlook is he the man

02:37that's going to lead Rangers over the line to win trophies next season, I'm not so sure

02:45but I do kind of feel he's a very good player still to have around the squad, I know his

02:50influence is obviously rubbed off in the likes of Hans Eichmann who was particularly vocal about

02:55you know obviously Dessert losing his place in the team at the turn of the year

03:00to the Moroccan but now he's obviously back in there and scoring again seems to be

03:06the kind of first choice doesn't he under Barry Ferguson at this moment in time so

03:11it'll be interesting, you'd imagine that Rangers will be keen to keep hold of him next season

03:16because you know even though he isn't overly prolific, strikers like that are still kind

03:23of relatively hard to come by and I still think he can kind of make a big contribution to the

03:31Rangers team going forward. Yeah and I suppose I mean for Barry Ferguson, I think we spoke about

03:38it last week in terms of his permanent manager bid, it's these type of games you need to be

03:45winning, I mean there's easier ways to win it certainly but I mean is this the, are these the

03:53type of games do you think that he's going to be judged on in terms of these are the ones that they

03:57have slipped up on and it's where the most improvement needs to be made because I think

04:00at the start of the season if you would have said before the split two wins against Celtic

04:05out of the three, one of them at Parkhead and quarterfinals of the Europa League you would

04:11think well we're probably going to be right in with a shout at the title, you wouldn't probably

04:15think that it's games at home to Smitherin, Motherwell, Queen's Park and then away trips

04:20to the likes of Hibbs that have really derailed Rangers this season in a domestic sense.
