GREG DOCHERTY grew up idolising Steven Davis and now he aims to pick his boyhood hero’s brains before pinching his spot in Steven Gerrard’s Rangers line-up.

The return of former club captain Davis to Ibrox on a six-month loan deal from Southampton has all but ended Docherty’s hopes that he may be called back from his own temporary stint at Shrewsbury this month.

But the former Hamilton youngster firmly expects to be back in Glasgow this summer, looking to compete with midfield ace Davis.
