We revealed how James Tavernier and Connor Goldson are wanted by Gerrard but another Ibrox old boy came back to haunt him.
Steven Gerrard is on the trail of two of his old Rangers defensive stars - but it was a striker he signed at Ibrox who came back to haunt him as his recent miserable run at Al-Ettifaq continued.
Those numbers are what Gerrard, who watched ex Celtic striker Moussa Dembele score either side of Sakala’s double, feels his side needs as their winless run was extended to six games. Gerrard said after the defeat: “Sakala was dangerous and that is what we lack in our team. We were bad individually and collectively. We conceded two easy goals. I did not like the mentality or the character shown by the players.
But on how his summer exit unfolded he said: "I went back to pre-season in Germany and it was a big surprise because my pictures were not taken. I was scoring beautiful goals and my goals were not published. On his deteriorating relationship with Beale and Rangers exit overall, Sakala added: "That was the hard one. When I was coming back for the new season, I thought the coach would trust me. and want me there for the new season. He didn't talk to me about anything or any transfers. He clearly showed me that I wasn't part of his plans without telling me anything. The time I received a call from Mick Beale was when he told me not to come to the training ground anymore.
