John Fleck and John Lundstram were team-mates with Sheffield United in the Premier LeagueJohn Fleck says former Sheffield United team-mate John Lundstram took up "an incredible chance at one of the biggest clubs in the world" by joining Rangers. Englishman Lundstram moved to Ibrox this summer after two seasons in his country's Premier League ended with the Blades' relegation. "He said they were very interested in him and I said, 'you need to give it a go'," Fleck tells BBC Scotland. Nevertheless, Lundstram had cited Rangers manager and fellow Liverpudlian Steven Gerrard as a major attraction. "He's probably not gone for Rangers - he's probably gone just to meet Steven Gerrard," Fleck suggests.
