‘Maradona’ Maeda struggles while £8 million man Chermiti is still MIA | The Warm-Up

With Rangers failing to score in their UEFA Europa League defeat to Genk and Celtic wrestling with the question of what to do with a problem like Maeda, The Warm-Up asks which of the Old Firm sides will be the first to get their frontmen firing. Will Daizen Maeda persevere up front for the Scottish champions or is it vital that Brendan Rodgers gets new signing Kelechi Iheanacho match fit and starting in a central role. Russell Martin faces a different issue at Rangers. Will £8 million man Youssef Chermiti start to make an impact or could Russell Martin even opt to pair him in attack with former Aberdeen frontman, Bojan Miovski.
