Liverpool youngster Liam Millar made his debut for Kilmarnock and Ryan Kent continues to do well under Steven Gerrard.
Millar came off the bench to play the final 12 minutes of his team’s 2-1 defeat at the hands of Hearts, while Kent put in a man of the match performance for Rangers.
Gerrard’s outfit dismantled St. Mirren 4-0 and Kent played a massive role in that. The winger scored his fifth goal of the season to impress his gaffer, who praised his excellence throughout the campaign.
Nathaniel Clyne continues to prove his worth as a Premier League defender as he played the full 90 minutes against Cardiff City. Clyne couldn’t stop the Cherries from suffering an unexpected defeat at the hands of the Bluebirds, who won 2-0.
