Alfredo Morelos and the Rangers prophecy from Caixinha that came true as final derby hurrah asks one more question

Can't live with him, can’t live without him.

Michael Beale isn’t the first Rangers manager to struggle with that Colombian quandary but he will be the last. Alfredo Morelos’ days in Glasgow are numbered and with just four games remaining until he brings his often explosive, never dull, six-year stint at Ibrox to an end, he’ll soon become someone else’s problem. But until El Bufalo finally moves on to grazing pastures new, Beale has three more weeks where the responsibility of dealing with Morelos remains his.

It’s a challenge each of the four men to have occupied the manager’s office at Ibrox before Beale have also wrestled with. Pedro Caixinha was the man who sanctioned the £1million investment that lured the then unknown South America from HJK Helsinki in the summer of 2017. The Portuguese flop only lasted another four months in the job but long enough to spot the first signs of trouble.
