Russell Martin casts verdict on Rangers' performance vs Alloa

Russell Martin says he saw lots of good things from his Rangers team against Alloa Athletic this evening. 

Goals from Nedim Bajrami, Emmanuel Fernandez, James Tavernier and Findlay Curtis helped the Ibrox club into the quarter-finals of the Premier Sports Cup, where they will be at home to either Hibernian or Livingston.

"I saw lots of really good stuff," Martin said of Rangers' victory this evening when speaking to Premier Sports post-match.

"We started the game with real intent and then scored. We can't then sustain the intensity all the time. 

"I saw a few too many moments in the first half that they shouldn't get. 

"But there was lots of good stuff. 

"There will be a lot of players that will be better for this. It's Manny's [Emmanuel Fernandez] first game, Mikey's [Moore] first game, and the guys around haven't played pretty much. 

"There's a lot to be really excited about. And it's my job to always want more from the players and us as a group. So we'll look at it, and we'll learn from it.

"I'm pleased with where we're going, but we have to keep working always."

Rangers return to action on Tuesday evening as they face Club Brugge in the first leg of their Champions League play-off.
