The full picture
Rangers manager Derek McInnes praised South Korean winger Min-Su Kim's overall performance after their 4-0 win against St Johnstone, highlighting his counter-pressing, work rate, and confidence on the ball. Kim has started seven of his eight appearances for Rangers but has yet to score or assist. McInnes wants Kim to focus on his broader contribution rather than just his goal tally. The winger has shown promise with efforts that hit the woodwork twice.
McInnes believes Kim's frustration about not scoring has become a regular topic of conversation, and he's trying to shift Kim's focus away from goals and assists. Against St Johnstone, Kim helped create pressure and was involved in several attacking moves. The manager praised Kim's overall game, threat, and willingness to work hard. Kim's confidence in possession and quality throughout the game were described as outstanding by McInnes.
The club should continue to support Kim's development rather than criticizing him publicly for not scoring. At 20, Kim has time to improve his finishing and decision-making. His existing work rate and tactical discipline provide a solid foundation. Rangers have invested in rebuilding the squad, and Kim's contract runs until 2030, giving the club time to develop his game.

Source context
Rangers delivered a convincing response to their recent domestic setback by beating St Johnstone 4-0, giving Derek McInnes another reason to trust the attacking approach he has developed since taking charge in June. The result followed a frustrating 2-2 draw against Dundee, which interrupted the club’s winning run and allowed Celtic to maintain their advantage in the Scottish Premiership title race. McInnes has reshaped the squad since arriving at Ibrox, adding fresh options across several positions during the summer transfer window. His side have already shown they can hurt opponents through quick transitions, aggressive pressing and direct wing play, although the manager still expects greater consistency in the final third.
