Barry Ferguson has confessed that Celtic star Jota is the best player in Scotland so far this season as he shut down Kris Boyd's support for Rangers stars.
Boyd has previously named Alfredo Morelos as the best player in the Scottish Premiership and has also tipped Ryan Kent for the crown while on punditry duties for Sky Sports during the early part of the campaign. James McFadden pulled the former Ibrox striker up for his take live on TV following Jota's sensational strike against Kilmarnock, with the Scotland hero tipped the Portuguese winger as the best of the talent this term.
Former Rangers skipper Ferguson admitted he couldn't back former teammate Boyd over any Rangers player seeing off the Celtic star based on his performances so far this season. However, he reckons there is still plenty of time for other player's to overcome Jota in the Player of The Year running.
