Rangers squad 'will look different' come Panathinaikos clash
Russell Martin believes his Rangers squad will "look different" by the time he takes charge of his first game next Ibrox defender Martin kicks off his tenure against Greek side Panathinaikos in the Champions League second qualifying round, with the first leg on 22-23 July."I think the squad will look different," the head coach, who has yet to make a signing, told Rangers TV. "We will have some players in by then, so the earlier we can do that, the better, so they become ingrained in what we are trying to build culturally and in terms of performance."The players are back in on Monday, that's the most exciting bit. We will see what they can do, how we are going to have to adapt and tweak to make it really built-in and ready for us, and then the rest will take care of itself."Rangers will kick off their Scottish Premiership campaign against Motherwell - led by Martin's former Norwich City team-mate Jens Berthel Askou - but the Ibrox boss' main focus for now is on Athens side were the highest ranked of the three unseeded teams in the league path of the Champions League draw."A lot of people said to me it's maybe the toughest draw we could have had, but we have to play against and beat good teams if we want to compete in European football," Martin added."It gives us something to work towards and look at them, but the focus is going to be on us and making sure we are ready to compete against anyone by the time the game comes around."

Andy Murray reveals next career move and reveals he will snub ‘harmful' new role
ANDY MURRAY is loath to step into TV punditry work just yet – as he does not want to annoy Jack Draper with his words. Muzza, 38, hated it when he was playing and former British tennis stars, some who had nowhere near his same level of ability or talent, gave him advice. 2 2 Now retired and at a loose end following the dissolution of his coaching gig with 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic, the Scotsman could earn decent money working for the BBC. The two-time Wimbledon singles champion is conscious of appearing in front of millions and saying something that current British No.1 Draper, 23, disagrees with. Asked by GQ magazine if he feels the need to stay in the public eye, Murray replied: "I'm not thinking daily that I need to tweet something or somehow remain relevant. "That's why I'm much more interested in the idea of coaching because I feel like I'd actually really be helping someone. 'Whereas with punditry, it can be harmful. If I go and work at, let's say Wimbledon, you start getting asked questions about British players like Jack Draper. 'I know when the British ex–tennis players would talk about my tennis and what I should be doing. 'Because you respect them, you listen to what they're saying – but it's not always the same as what your coach is telling you. 'What the pundits are saying could be wrong. "They're not right all the time, and when you're young, it's quite conflicting. 'So I'd be more inclined to do coaching, because I think punditry is quite an easy gig. 'You can just throw stuff out there. People love it if it's a bit controversial, but you don't actually have any skin in the game.' BBC's Wimbledon TV comms team will be revealed on Monday.
