It’s looking increasingly likely that Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes will become the new Rangers boss.

When you look at the Premier League table and Tottenham Hotspur’s position within it, one thing instantly catches the eye and that is that Mauricio Pochettino’s men aren’t scoring enough league goals. The Lilywhites have only scored twenty-three league goals in fifteen games, that’s significantly less than any other top six side. Premier League leaders […]
