National team boss George Burley revealed recently the 17-year-old is in his thoughts for next month's World Cup qualifier.[LNB]But Scotland and Rangers skipper Ferguson fears too much pressure is being put on the teenager after just six first-team outings.[LNB]He said: "It's crazy. He's only broken into the Rangers team and people are putting far too much pressure on him.[LNB]"He's the best talent to come through in years so let's get behind him.[LNB]"It's up to George to say what he thinks but we should just let him play and get on with his football. He's only 17 and just out of school."[LNB]Ferguson added: "I will always be there to help him.[LNB]"He was shy at first when he came in but he's a Glasgow boy and he has fitted in well.[LNB]"People are putting too much pressure on him. He's a great talent and he should be left to fulfil that.[LNB]"He's the best I've seen but you don't want to put too much pressure on him.[LNB]"He knows the pressures of playing for Rangers but he has a good head on his shoulders and has enough people here to tell him what not to do."[LNB][LNB]
