While the excitement around Igamane’s performance was justified – and is perhaps needed around Ibrox just now – there has to be a caveat. He was up against a disastrous Nice defence.<\/p>\n
If this was an exam, the Ligue 1 side would have failed miserably.<\/p>\n
“Igamane can expect a lot tougher games,” Thompson added. “But while he is not going to run channels or win flick-ons, he takes the ball really well on his chest.”<\/p>\n
His pressing and winning of duels was cited by Clement as another reason behind the powerful forward’s inclusion in the XI.<\/p>\n
Those qualities should transfer to playing against packed defences in the Scottish Premiership, but Igamane has so far only had 203 minutes of top-flight football. <\/p>\n
Among that, he has shown flashes of finesse but nothing as complete as the performance in Nice to make his case to start ahead of Dessers and Danilo.<\/p>\n
And his manager confirmed his youth is no barrier.<\/p>\n
“I want to see the hunger and desire to become better, then I’ll give chances to young players,” Clement added. “I don’t mind their age, it’s about how they perform in training and games.”<\/p>\n
Igamane’s game was not worthy of an A+, but there was plenty potential, fight and fire. Something which has not often been said about Rangers this season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
