Spurs to recall Mikey Moore? Rangers winger drowning at Ibrox | OneFootball

After a recent conjecture piece from one of the clickbait mob claimed Mikey Moore regrets joining Rangers, the rest of the parasites jumped on it and spun it into a so-called sourced story that Spurs will recall him. The truth is simpler. Moore has utterly struggled at Rangers.

He arrived from a club where winning the league is a nice idea rather than an absolute demand. At Rangers the pressure is suffocating. Winning the league is everything. Moore, just 17 when he signed and only 18 now, has found that environment far too much. The Ibrox stage swallows players whole if they cannot meet the standard, and he has been consumed.

Yes, he is talented. Yes, he has potential. But he is nowhere near ready to be a first-team player at any club, never mind Spurs or Rangers. London is no picnic either. Tottenham have expectations of their own, which is why they binned Ange Postecoglou so quickly. If he cannot cope in Glasgow, he will not cope in North London either.

The evidence on the pitch is damning. Moore has delivered nothing of note in Rangers colours. The one time he showed glimpses was against Alaba in the cup, and that was against lower-league opposition. Beyond that, he has vanished.

Whether Spurs genuinely have any plan to recall him is irrelevant. The bigger truth is it has not worked out for him at Ibrox. He looks every inch a passenger despite the £20m theoretical value tag. Sadly for him, he is not alone. Many of Russell Martin’s summer signings have failed too. That failure lies firmly at the feet of the manager, whose appalling leadership has turned promising additions into shadows of themselves.

Mikey Moore is just the latest example of a young player broken by the reality of Rangers.
