One of the major tasks for the next Rangers head coach will be to invigorate and motivate a squad that have flattered to deceive time and time again this season.

Rohl would have no problem making a positive first impression, according to former Scotland midfielder Barry Bannan - Rohl's captain at Wednesday.

"Danny was really good, he had a winning mindset from his first meeting," Bannan told BBC Scotland.

"He was a young manager so the boys were intrigued to see how he would go about it, but we all left that meeting knowing we had a top, top manger on our hands. He was only young but he came across as highly confident."

Martin was unable to win over a sceptical Rangers support and his relationship with fans soured to the extent that he required a police escort after the 1-1 draw at Falkirk - his final match in charge.

Bannan thinks Rohl would be able to win round the angry Ibrox fanbase.

"He is very passionate," Bannan said. "He took to Sheffield Wednesday and the fans took to him right away because of the passion he showed.

"I know he is up for a battle - he came to us when we were rock bottom and looked likely to be relegated but we stayed up that year and kicked on.

"A lot of people seem to forget he worked at a massive club in Bayern Munich. I know he was assistant there but he would have got a taste to something similar to the Old Firm teams because it's all about winning games."

The only thing that would convince Rangers fans that Rohl is the right man is winning and winning regularly.

Martin left Rangers without any points from two Europa League matches and eighth in the Premiership with just eight points from seven games.

Bannan - a self-confessed Celtic fan - has no doubt results would improve with Rohl at the helm.

"Knowing the manager's character and looking at that Rangers team, there'd be an upturn in results if Danny did get the job," he said.

"I'll put my neck out on the line and say he is the best manager I have worked under. He is brilliant."
