David Edgar Shares Hilarious Cyriel Dessers Joke After Rangers’ Dramatic Draw with Olympiacos

David Edgar humorously remarked that Cyriel Dessers is the “weirdest player” Rangers have ever had after the team’s 1-1 draw with Olympiacos in the Europa League on November 7. The Nigerian striker netted the equalizer in Greece, but his performance was marked by a series of missed opportunities earlier in the match. Since joining Rangers, Dessers has been plagued by inconsistency, which has raised questions about his overall impact. Edgar, who has been watching Rangers for 42 years, took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his bewilderment, suggesting that Dessers is a player who is hard to figure out. He joked that someone should conduct a PhD study on him to understand his unpredictable performances.

For Dessers to succeed at Rangers, he needs to make a major shift in his approach, moving from a player known for occasional flashes of brilliance to one who delivers consistent performances. Rangers simply cannot afford to rely on a striker who is unpredictable. As the team’s primary goal scorer, Dessers’ inconsistency could lead to missed opportunities and dropped points in crucial matches. While he has shown his potential—such as scoring the important equalizer against Olympiacos—the demands of top-level football require more than just rare moments of brilliance. A striker needs to be a dependable threat to opposition defenses, delivering goals on a regular basis. Currently, Dessers is more of a luxury player rather than a consistent, reliable one, and this needs to change if he is to become a key figure for Rangers moving forward.
