Rangers fans have agreed with Kenny Miller’s comments about playing Ryan Kent in a different position ahead of Sunday’s Scottish League Cup semi-final against Aberdeen at Hampden Park.

Following a decent, yet somewhat frustrating draw against Russian outfit Spartak Moscow on Thursday night in the Europa League, Rangers face another difficult test in the League Cup semi-final against Derek McInnes’ side.

However, Steven Gerrard is light on options up front after Alfredo Morelos picked up a yellow card and a one-match ban during the 4-0 win over Ayr in the previous round – meaning the Colombian would miss Sunday’s outing.

Kyle Lafferty is also set to miss the clash as he is cup tied, after featuring for Hearts in the same competition before joining Rangers towards the end of the summer transfer window.

Gers icon Miller spoke after the 0-0 draw on BT Sport about Liverpool loanee Kent, urging Gerrard to try him up front: “He will definitely feature. Could he play through the middle? I think he could definitely play as a false nine the way he plays.”

Rangers fans have seemingly agreed with veteran striker Miller, urging Gerrard to try 21-year-old Kent through the middle instead of playing AS Roma loanee Umar Sadiq through the middle as the Nigerian striker has managed just 26 minutes of football this season.
