Ryan Jack completed 90 minutes in the 1-1 draw against NK Osijek on Thursday night, and some of the Rangers on Twitter were blown away by the quality of his performance.

Jack has featured in all four matches so far this season for the Gers and looks like he could be a crucial player in the new campaign.
