Rangers midfielder Glen Kamara plays in a slightly different, more advanced role for Finland – and the Scandinavians continue to benefit.
The former Arsenal Academy midfielder was once again one of the best players on the park as the Finns fell to a disappointing 2-1 home defeat to European giants Italy.
He certainly looks at home amongst some of the best midfielders around – including £50m Chelsea man Jorginho – and it’s caught the eyes of a range of fans.

As you can see, the talented 23-year-old midfielder is certainly catching the eye on the international stage.
The performance also follows on from the rave reviews Kamara received for his showing against Greece on Thursday evening.
Now one of the key parts of a Finnish side going so well in Euro 2020 qualification (2nd in Group J), Kamara has now earned 13 caps and one goal for the country.
Speaking in an interview with Finnish football podcast Pallokerho, between comparing life at Arsenal and Rangers and praising Steven Gerrard, Kamara discussed playing different roles for Rangers and Finland.
The former Dundee midfielder also acknowledged that he has not been at his best so far this season.
Does his encouraging displays for the national team suggest Rangers should consider push the midfielder further forward?
There’s little doubt that there’s a real talent there in Kamara, and perhaps Rangers must adapt to get the best out of it.
