Marvin Bartley has paid tribute to a ‘superb’ Rangers side on Sunday.

Steven Gerrard’s side beat Livingston 2-0 away from home yesterday to keep pace with Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic, who are only ahead of the Gers on goal difference.

It was a professional display from Rangers who bagged all three points through goals from Joe Aribo and Alfredo Morelos.

The victory came only days after Gerrard’s side beat Porto at Ibrox in the Europa League, and Livi defender Bartley, who played in a 2-0 win over Celtic earlier this season, claims that the light Blues are the best team he has faced so far in the 2019-20 campaign.

He told The Scottish Sun: “I thought they were superb. As a player, you obviously don’t want to be coming off the pitch and be saying that about the opposition. But it was a hard game for us. Their rotation was very good and you have to say that the best team won on the day.

“In terms of the teams we’ve played at home, they’re definitely the best side we’ve faced so far this season.”

Gerrard is certainly building something fantastic on the blue side of Glasgow and this was further evidence of that.

It wasn’t an easy game for Rangers on Sunday, but the performance doesn’t matter so long as the result is there and, more and more, the result is there for the Gers.
