Fashion Sakala pits Rangers pundits against each other as debate becomes an early Europa League Final talking point

dailyrecord.co.uk:

The Rangers pundits had differing opinions on Fashion Sakala after Sunday's Premiership clash at Ibrox. Gio van Bronckhorst and his side secured all three points, stopping Celtic from officially being named league champions until Wednesday at least, through goals from skipper James Tavernier and Manchester United loanee Amad Diallo.Sakala was named in the starting XI and played his part in both goals, despite not managing to get his own name on the scoresheet.

His performance was reflected upon by pundits Alan Hutton and Neil McCann who seemed to be on different wavelengths when discussing the forward.

Speaking on Rangers TV after the final whistle, Hutton has his say on the Rangers forward: "There was opportunities for him today, he got into good situations, moved the ball well."But I just think he has to slow down."Just some moments in time he can slow down and impact the game more."Overall, I think he will be a little bit disappointed he didn’t get on the score sheet."But Neil McCann was a lot more complimentary of the Zambian international and said: "Sakala was probably my man of the match today because he was influential for both goals."He was a livewire throughout."Fashion Sakala's involvement has been a real talking point during previous weeks, with Kemar Roofe and Alfredo Morelos' absences due to injury troubles.But the Ibrox boss has often opted not to start the Zambian who missed out on a start over both legs of the Europa League semi finals and if Roofe remains out for the Final he could be one of the biggest selection questions.Sakala has scored 11 goals in 46 total appearances for Rangers since joining the club in the summer of 2021 - one of which came against city rivals Celtic earlier this month.
