Rangers fans react on Twitter to Billy Gilmour’s display in Chelsea’s FA Cup win

A number of Rangers fans have taken to Twitter to comment on Billy Gilmour’s performance as the 18-year-old seemed to steal the show in the FA Cup.

However, the former Gers man produced an incredible performance as his side booked their place in the quarter-final of the competition.

Gilmour was brilliant on the ball, and delighted the crowd with some moments of magic – most notably, when he danced past Fabinho with an amazing piece of skill.
