Let’s be 100% clear, Rangers have beaten better teams this season and in the Europa League recent past than those who are now left in the competition.
Just Leipzig and either West Ham or Frankfurt stand between Rangers and making history as the first Scottish side to win the Europa League, and no one would bet against this side doing it.
Remember, when it came to the odds for the last 16, Rangers were 11th.
There’s now only 4 left, and we’re one of them.
That 11th was clearly completely wrong, and that 11 claimed the farcical Barcelona as favourites, who were roundly hounded out of this by modest Frankfurt (9th in Bundesliga) shows those odds for the joke they were.
Rangers remain the outsiders, the least likely to win, and that’s absolutely fine – we’ve beaten better sides than all three who remain, so we’ll happily sit here unfancied by the bookies and by betting patterns.
But the reality is that the 9th best team in Germany destroyed Barca, that the impressive West Ham lynched Lyon, and the 4th best team in Germany dispatched the more or less equivalent in Italy demonstrates Rangers and all the other 3 teams are capable of winning.
Rangers are the biggest dark horse in this. We took out the champions of Serbia, a strong Portuguese side, and of course the world’s 10th best team in Dortmund (currently second in Germany).
The more and more we are unfancied, the more we like it.
No one fancies us, we don’t care.
We just might sneak up and win the Europa League from it…
Glasgow is blue
Fantastic night for the famous

Bouncy bouncy bouncy
WATP🇬🇧
Did you see on BT sport highlights show after the game they basicly said we are the outsiders ??
But i think this squad plays best when they’re under dogs. I hope Barisic is okay for old firm, didhe hv injury when taken off ?? Or was he just knackered ??
11/1 i just read we are to lift the trophy !! How can tht be after the teams we’ve dispatched.
