Kemar Roofe and Nicolas Raskin returned to Rangers training after Michael Beale had emptied his locker at Auchenhowie.
Whether or not the pair would have been enough to prevent the disaster against Aberdeen is debatable, but they both provide a level of talent that is desperately needed in the Europa League.
Aris Limassol will be a stiff test, but with Kemar Roofe and Nicolas Raskin available, as interim Rangers manager Steven Davis stated on Rangers TV, our chances of success grow dramatically.
Rangers’ Kemar Roofe and Nicolas Raskin are expected to return.

Davis stated of the crucial combo saw in training and on the way to Cyprus:
After Michael Beale had emptied his locker at Auchenhowie, Kemar Roofe and Nicolas Raskin returned to Rangers training.
It is debatable if the pair would have been sufficient to prevent the calamity against Aberdeen, but they both represent a level of talent that is urgently needed in the Europa League.
Aris Limassol will be a tough test, but with Kemar Roofe and Nicolas Raskin available, our chances of success increase substantially, as interim Rangers manager Steven Davis noted on Rangers TV.
Zak Lovelace replaced Cyriel Dessers, and Ryan Jack was replaced at half-time due to a change in shape.
If David can bring Rangers through the next two games uninjured, a much-needed international break should see injured players such as Kieran Dowell, Todd Cantwell, Tom Lawrence, and Danilo return or at the at least, be back in training.
There will be plenty of pressure on the new manager, and having a nearly completely fit squad on hand will help their cause.
Having guys like Kemar Roofe and Nicolas Raskin match fit will be an added bonus.
