Tottenham loanee buzzing at Rangers as Spurs and Ibrox stars react after major weekend moment
The Tottenham loanee has kicked into form during a temporary stint at Rangers.
Mikey Moore has talked up how well his Rangers loan spell is going - as stars at his parent club and temporary side react to his big weekend.
The Spurs attacker netted his first goal for Rangers in the 3-0 Premiership win at Dundee, and had another ruled out, due to Mohamed Diomande being in an offside position in the build-up. His form has picked up since the arrival of head coach Danny Rohl, having signed in the summer under previous gaffer, Russell Martin.
A clutch of current Tottenham and Rangers players have reacted to the big day for Moore. Nico Raskin and Danilo are some of the Ibrox men who have lauded the attacker on Instagram while the likes of Tottenham attacker Brennan Johnson have got in on the act.
What have Tottenham and Rangers stars said about Mikey Moore?
Johnson simply said “nice” with a fire emoji and Will Lankshear, who is also out on loan from Tottenham at West Brom, said “love it bud.” Danilo put “Mooreee” with several fire emojis and Raskin said “love that.” Jack Butland and Rabbi Matondo were some of the other stars to congratulate the starlet on his big weekend.
Moore told Rangers TV: “It was an enjoyable game, it was a good one to play in obviously winning and getting a goal. I almost had another one, but I am happy with the one. We played a few nice passes and the ball just dropped for me. Luckily, I could take it away from the defender and then I just shot as quickly as I could because I was happy that I was in front of goal.
"When I scored the second one, I said to the boys, I think I am offside. I wasn’t but it was in the build-up there was a decision, it is frustrating, but I am happy with the way the game went. In these games, you have to start quick.
Mikey Moore on Rangers loan spell
“There have been too many times in the season where we haven’t started quick enough but we picked up two goals early which was gave us a bit of control in the game. In the second-half we could’ve had a bit more control and that is something we will work on. I have had a good experience, and it has been very positive.
"Even although some of the results haven’t gone our way, the boys have stuck together and there has been a lot more positivity in the group. I’m happy, and I think everyone is at the moment. I’m happy to be going away with England and we just need to come back and just carry on with where we have left off, we need to pick up points and keep building.”
Moore is now on youth international duty with England before he returns for Rangers action. Rohl’s side kick off an extended run of games without national team games by facing Livingston at Ibrox on November 22nd.
