I like how they illustrate how unrecognisable Sandaza now is by showing two photos where he looks pretty much the same.

Just to highlight how desperate the Sun are for a tenuous connection to one of the OF...

I mean the lad played nigh on 80 games in Scotland, only a handful were for Rangers and in turn Rangers were only one of more than a dozen clubs he played for, so of course The Sun presents the story as they do.

Another interesting piece of spin is describing him as a “Rangers flop” as opposed to a “guy shafted by Rangers to get him off the wage bill”, which is probably more accurate.

He was "shafted" by Tom the taxi driver.

The latest Private Eye has a good section on this 'unrecognisable' trend for pictures where people look completely recognisable.

I wonder if this stuff is produced by someone on a wage or by some chump getting by on 'exposure' and 'experience'.

It's describing the history of a rivalry from a player's perspective. 
He's quite complimentary about Aberdeen and Scottish teams in general. 
Is that not a positive?

Do you believe in fairies and Santa as well?

If you want to be pedantic no articles on football matches are "necessary ".

Imagine a world where the cause of WWII in Europe was generally accepted to be Britain's aggression against Germany. And every time Britain was in the papers Germany cried about Britain invading. That's the the Scottish papers on Rangers v Aberdeen.

It really isn't. 

Are you suggesting that tackle isn't a factor?
