Derek Ferguson, a ex-player for Rangers, has strongly disagreed with Kevin Kyle’s questioning of Mohamed Diomande’s contributions at Ibrox. The dynamic midfielder received praise for his performance in the Scottish Cup Final loss to Celtic and is set to finalize a £4.5 million permanent move following a successful six-month loan from Nordsjælland. At 22 years old, he is seen as a crucial part of Philippe Clement’s plans for the significant reconstruction at Ibrox. However, Kyle seems unimpressed as he expressed a harsh opinion on Diomande, despite other respected experts and fans acknowledging his talent. Kyle expressed skepticism about Diomande’s contributions during the match, stating that he didn’t believe Diomande had a significant impact. Kyle observed that Diomande seemed to be running around aimlessly during the game. In contrast, Simon Ferry, Paul Slane, and Derek Ferguson disagreed with Kyle’s assessment, particularly Ferguson who defended Diomande by highlighting his value in the midfield. Ferguson praised Diomande’s versatility and suggested that he could be effective in various positions on the field. Ferguson believed that Diomande had the potential to be utilized in different roles and could provide valuable contributions to the team. Diomande is anticipated to play a crucial role in the newly redesigned midfield in the upcoming season. John Lundstram and Ryan Jack are currently without contracts, as Clement promised significant changes ahead.
