Barry Ferguson reckons all the signs are there that Antonio Colak is now Michael Beale's third-choice centre-forward.
But the former Rangers skipper defended the Croatian's record and insisted having both him and Kemar Roofe to come off the bench can only be a positive. Colak started the season as Gio van Bronckhorst's main striker but has found starts hard to come by under Beale with Alfredo Morelos restored to one of the first names on the teamsheet.
Roofe's recent return has limited Colak's minutes further and it was the Jamaica forward substituted on first against Livingston before Colak replaced Morelos for the final 10 minutes. Roofe also got amongst the goals and with Beale waxing lyrical about the experienced striker, Ferguson reckons he may have moved ahead of Colak in the pecking order.
