Rangers boss Steven Gerrard says the only stopping Sheyi Ojo from becoming a star is himself.

Ojo is on loan at Ibrox from Liverpool and scored his first competitive goal for the club in Tuesday's win over St. Joseph's.

And Gerrard believes the 22-year-old has enormous potential.

"Sheyi was outstanding throughout, an incredible performance," Gerrard said.

"He gives us real pace and power down that right-hand side, so I'm pleased for him to score a debut goal on the back of such a strong performance.

"Sheyi has got all the attributes and if this doesn't work, it will be because of Sheyi. He's got everything in the locker, he is quick, strong, powerful. You know he is going to take on tactical information, you see him chasing back and making fouls and getting yellow cards.

"He knows that he needs to make this work. He is delighted to be here, he has settled in well. Now he has to build on that. Towards the end, I could see him coming down slightly.

"I want him to be ruthless from start to finish."
