Fabio Silva has a new role with the Rangers
Clement will be happy to see all of his key attacking players contribute goals, whatever his remarks.
Although all three of the January additions have performed well, Silva’s usage is the most intriguing.
Although the 21-year-old did well last season while on loan in Belgium and the Netherlands, he has never been a consistent goal scorer.
And for this reason, there were those in the Rangers fan base who insisted on signing a more natural finisher, such as Lawrence Shankland.
Although Silva has rarely looked like anything other than a tidy and technically superb player when he has either started or come off the bench in rotation with the large Nigerian, Cyriel Dessers has solidified his position as the team’s first-choice number nine.
However, he scored Rangers’ fifth goal against Hearts, coming on as Tom Lawrence’s replacement and playing alongside Dessers rather than in place of him at number ten.
Due to his own recent injury issues, Lawrence cannot be expected to play every game while Todd Cantwell is out.
There is no reason Silva can’t play in this position instead against teams when we will control possession.
Although he may have a stronger attack mentality, his work ethic has never been questioned since he started.
Everyone has embraced Clement’s concept of energy and intensity, and Fabio Silva isn’t displaying any indications that he believes he is too talented for the Rangers or the SPFL.
We may be in dire need of a goal-scoring number 10 given the players we have lost to injury.
