STEVEN GERRARD reckons Kemar Roofe is 'like a Duracell Bunny' as he leads the way in terms of his workrate numbers this term.
The striker took time to get up to speed at Ibrox following his move from Anderlecht but has now become an integral part of the Rangers attack.
Roofe's movement and energy are trademarks of his game and Gerrard has been impressed with the statistics that he has been posting in recent weeks.
Gerrard said: "I think there is more to come in certain departments. One thing for sure, I have to pay credit to the fitness department and the sports science lads.
"The numbers that we are hitting right now are really impressive. I think Kemar Roofe has certainly helps on that. He doesn’t stop, he is like a Duracell Bunny.
"He is hitting numbers that you don’t really expect from a forward player, he is running more than the midfielders and running the most in the team at the moment.
"I think he is really setting the example in terms of what we need to put into a game to get the results we are getting.
"Everyone is hitting impressive numbers, but Roofe has raised the bar with the last couple of performances he has put in."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
