The Scotland cap wants to keep his record of scoring against Rangers going.
The 28-year-old has been tipped as the answer to the Ibrox side’s striking snags, with Record Sport columnist Tam McManus recently claiming Gers missed a trick by not moving for Shankland over the summer. New Rangers boss Philippe Clement has long been aware of the Jambos captain’s qualities having come across him when Shankland was starring for Belgian side Beerschot.
“Results have maybe not gone the way we wanted in some games but performances have been getting better. So, we can go into this game with confidence.” Shankland said: “Every game matters but these ones are the big occasions and they bring the headlines and headlights. I have been playing well recently and I had a good performance at Ibrox as well last week, so I can take confidence from that and hopefully lead the boys to a victory.
“Of course it was . You want to be involved but once the squad is picked, there’s nothing you can do. There are too many ups and downs over the years that I’ve had myself so I tend to deal with things like that pretty easily.”
