Rangers forward Cyriel Dessers has said he is unperturbed by criticism concerning his performance at the club.
Dessers salvaged a draw for the Light Blues against Ukrainian giants Dynamo Kiev in a UEFA Champions League qualifying round tie on Tuesday night.
The 29-year-old has been constantly criticized by Rangers fans and media since his arrival at the club.
The Nigeria international stated that he is ready to do his talking on the field.

“As a striker you have to believe, even if it is an impossible ball or you don’t think it will fall [to you]. I knew it was the last ball into the box in the game, and that was the case. I was happy to be on the end of it,” Dessers told the BBC.
“I don’t have to answer people, I’m just doing my job for the team, for the manager, and for myself. That’s the only thing that matters.
“It would be nice to get more recognition for what you do, but I get the recognition inside the building and that’s most important. There are always reactions from the media or from a small part of the fans – but the bigger part of the fans gave me a lot of support and a lot of love.
“Hopefully it’s a beautiful night for all of us. We have the qualities to finish this tie off and we should at home, but it will not be easy.”

Dessers at your age ease the pressure by not answering noise makers. I have started a new adventure in this regard because life is full of gimmicks hanging around to trying to kill the joy they don’t have.
