Alfredo Morelos came back in from the cold for Rangers against Celtic and was “rubbish”, according to Pat Nevin.
The Colombian was exiled from the squad by Giovanni van Bronckhorst ahead of the Gers’ crucial Champions League playoff second leg clash away to PSV. The Dutchman had cited concerns over the striker’s attitude and fitness since coming back from a thigh injury and didn’t take him to Eindhoven.
That call was justified after the in-form Antonio Colak fired the Ibrox club into the Lucrative group stage with the only goal of the game, giving Rangers a 3-2 victory on aggregate. Morelos also missed the following match against St Johnstone and the Premier Sports Cup win over Queen of the South due to suspension after his sending off against Hibs last month. But after showdown talks with the manager, he was back in the fold ahead of Saturday’s first Old Firm encounter of the season.
