10 Players Who Exemplified What Glasgow Rangers Are All About

10. Davie Cooper

David Cooper once said about Rangers, "I played for the team I loved". Too often in the modern era, that kind of attitude hasn't been visible in the make-up of professional footballers. Growing up a Gers fan, Cooper plied his trade for the Glasgow giants from 1977-1989, before leaving to join Motherwell. Even after he'd left Ibrox, the man was still cheered by Rangers fans whenever he lined up against them. Every single club the man played for, from Rangers to the Lanarkshire outfit and even Clydebank, he gave his all every game. Supremely talented with the ball at his feet, Davie Cooper represents the kind of player that Rangers fans cherish, but exactly the type that those same supporters have been denied over the past few years. Jinking and weaving his way through defensive back lines around the country, Cooper was majestic. There were no allegations of 'show boating' (such as those following current Rangers player, Nathan Oduwa) in Cooper's day. Instead, the press marvelled at his talent. It's been said that Rangers are still trying to find Davie's replacement.
