Michael Beale is just days away from kicking off his reign as Rangers boss, but what does he have to live up to?
The former QPR boss was hired to succeed Giovanni van Bronckhorst recently, and he will make his debut on the Ibrox sideline against Hibernian on Thursday when the Scottish Premiership resumes following the World Cup break. Beale will be hoping to get off to a fast start with nine points already separating the Gers and leaders Celtic.
