The last few days of the transfer window could determine how the Premiership title race pans out and Rangers fans will hope their club can do a little more business to bolster their own ambitions.
Watching the game against Dundee, it struck me that for all of the improvements Danny Rohl has made, Rangers still lack a player who can unlock a packed defence with a killer pass. A creative attacking midfielder who could be the difference between winning the league and finishing second or third.
Of course, such players are hard to come by and if they have proven pedigree they aren't going to be cheap either, but if Rangers could unearth someone with the guile to play the killer passes and chip in with a few goals, their chances of silverware would be much improved.
I discussed last week the possibility that Bojan Miovski and Youssef Chermiti might be sufficient in terms of striking options for the remainder of the season but I suspect supporters would be delighted to welcome another option up front, particularly if Danilo is departing.
Otherwise, Rangers look to have decent options throughout the squad. Maybe Rohl would like to have a designated number six, which would allow Nico Raskin to play further forward, but the Belgian is more than capable of playing that role.
Tochi Chukwuani showed up pretty well on his first start against Dundee, though Andreas Skov Olsen was quieter and will need to quickly get up to speed if he is to have the desired impact.
Neither of them can play against Porto on Thursday – a game where the priority for Rangers is to try to continue the feelgood factor of their eight-match winning run.
After that, focus will quickly shift to another massive game at the weekend away to Hibs.
A tough assignment for Rohl's side but one from which they need maximum points to keep the pressure on their title rivals.
