Rangers defender Madjid Bougherra has successfully filled the void left by Carlos Cuellar enthused his defensive partner David Weir. "Replacing Carlos was going to be hard for whoever was asked to do that and they have been big boots to fill," said veteran defender Weir.

"But Madjid has come in and taken to things straight away. He deserves great credit for that.

"It's a big compliment to him that he has made the fans forget about Carlos very quickly.

"That was a big ask but he has done it. He keeps things simple and that is the nature of being a defender. He has good habits and has been a good addition."
