Rangers have confirmed Steven Gerrard as their new manager, but will the former England star deliver success to Ibrox.<\/p>\n

Gerrard has opted to take his first step into management with the Glasgow giants, which will see him handed the task of trying to topple rivals Celtic – ironically now under the charge of his former boss Brendan Rodgers.<\/p>\n

Celtic will go into next season off the back of two trebles, and it will be Gerrard’s job to try and stop them from claiming an eighth successive title.<\/p>\n

However, Bookmakers don’t see it being a quick changing of the guard North of the Border.<\/p>\n

“Rangers price on winning the league in 2018 has changed a little, but Celtic are still the only player in town according to the Bookmakers,” said OddsMonkey spokesman Peter Watton.<\/p>\n

“Celtic are currently 1\/12, which is over 92% probability – whilst Rangers, although second favourites are out at 12\/1.<\/p>\n

“Gerrard’s appointment, though, has garnered a host of markets and although the league title looks a long way off, he is a short price to get his hands on some silverware next season as that is around 11\/8.<\/p>\n

“If you do think he will be a success, Gerrard is just 4\/1 to make a return to Liverpool as manager one day.”<\/p>\n

Selected Gerrard & Rangers odds:
\n<\/strong>Rangers to win Scottish Premiership next season – 12\/1
\nRangers to win a trophy in 2018\/19 – 11\/8
\nSteven Gerrard to become manager of Liverpool – 4\/1<\/p>\n
