Ryan Kent and Steven Gerrard do Rangers double as they're handed Premiership awards

Steven Gerrard and Ryan Kent have made it a clean sweep on the awards front for Rangers as they were named Premiership manager and player of the month for August.

The Ibrox side sit top of the table after six games with five wins and a draw in their opening games, and are yet to concede a goal.

And Kent has been the key player for the Ibrox side throughout that run after starting the season in incredible form, with three goals during the opening weeks of the campaign.

It's the first time since September 2019 that a Rangers player has won the monthly award, with Alfredo Morelos getting it a year ago.

Gerrard also won manager of the month on that occasion and again took the trophy in December 2019.

It's the first monthly awards of the season and Gerrard will hope that it's not the last as they look to go all the way in the Premiership.

The Ibrox side have started the last two terms in top form before falling away in the second half of the season and Gerrard cant' afford for that to happen again.
