This Was Poor Rangers Team, Can’t Get Carried Away, Former Liverpool Star Tells Reds
Rangers have struggled at Champions League level this season and headed to Liverpool on the back of a 4-0 loss at Ajax and a 3-0 defeat at home against Napoli.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst picked a five-man defence and Liverpool came out of the encounter with a 2-0 win thanks to goals from Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah.
For Liverpool, the result was a welcome win and also a welcome clean sheet given the regularity with which they have conceded this term.
McAteer believes though the Reds should not get carried away as they faced a poor Rangers team, who also managed to make them wobble towards the end.
“This was a poor Rangers team we played tonight so we shouldn’t get carried away”, McAteer said post match on LFC TV.
“It’s a hard look to try and find analysis where we can go ‘that’s really good defending’.
“The times they did have a go at us in the last ten minutes we wobbled a little bit.
“So in that respect we didn’t really defend that well.”
Rangers remain bottom of the group, but are only three points off Ajax, with third place offering a route to Europa League football in the new year.
The Gers will host Liverpool at Ibrox next week, where they will hope to be able to spring a surprise.
