Did McInnes' Rangers finally arrive in Old Firm win?

[SNS] Did Sunday's dominant Old Firm victory finally signal the arrival of Derek McInnes' Rangers? Former midfielder Kevin Thomson believes the 3-0 League Cup quarter-final win could prove to be the day that ignites the McInnes era. Rangers were well worthy of their derby victory at Ibrox, which has earned them a last-four date with Aberdeen at Hampden. Thomson did not expect his old side to be as emphatic, but he says the threat and energy they carried were integral to proving him wrong. Speaking on the BBC's Scottish Football Podcast , the ex-Rangers player said: "I felt that even though Rangers have not been performing amazingly well, they've been starting to build some sort of momentum. "I just felt Sunday was one of the games that the team might just arrive. I didn't think they'd be as emphatic and I didn't think they would bully Celtic as much as they did. "It would be naive to say that, because Celtic are littered with brilliant players and they've been through this so many times, but Rangers made it a proper cup tie and they had that edge you need in these games. "Rangers carried such a threat and such an energy and I felt Celtic really struggled with that."
