Stephen Gerrard&#8217;s name has already been mentioned as a potential candidate. After a disastrous start to the season, the Rangers found themselves in decline for the eighth time.<\/p>\n<p>After winning one opening seven league match, the Scottish side pulled Russell Martin&#8217;s plug on Sunday night, leaving the manager&#8217;s seat empty once more. Their performance in Europe wasn&#8217;t that good. The board was said to be reluctant to remove him, but his position became unacceptable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Martin was appointed only in the summer, but fans were seen on banners asking for his exit, and a group of supporters waited for him outside the stadium after a draw with Falkirk on Sunday. But what is the possibility of Gerrard, who won the league with the Rangers in 2021 and returned to Ibrox as a replacement for Martin?<\/p>\n<p>The noise coming out of Scotland is that Gerrard is certainly in the frame he takes over from Martin. The Rangers reportedly consider the movement of the former Liverpool captain a &#8220;movement,&#8221; according to the Guardian. However, the club has not yet moved and is also a admirer of Danny Roll and Sean Dish.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Meanwhile, Gerrard is rumoured to be interested in returning to the 55-time champion after doing a disastrous job since leaving the Rangers in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Gerrard has already held consultations with the Rangers Committee over the summer, but has declined the possibility of returning home due to family reasons. But following Martin&#8217;s dismissal, former Scottish International Pat Nevin believes the job could tempt Gerrard this time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Speaking to Betideas.com, he explained:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are big ones, but especially where are you taking your rangers now? You look at the league table. That&#8217;s a big old question. That&#8217;s a big question now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2117571\/steven-gerrard-rangers-next-manager\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ranger is looking for a new manager again.
