Barry Ferguson says the real pressure Michael Beale faces at Rangers is in the summer, not in winning the Scottish Cup.
The Ibrox boss' chances of success have been weighed up in some quarters including Rangers hero Mark Hateley who has labelled retaining the domestic trophy as 'massive' for the Englishman. Beale trails rival Ange Postecoglou by nine points in the league despite being unbeaten in the Scottish Premiership and will face Celtic again in the last four of the cup.
It was disappointment in the Viaplay Cup final for Beale but former Light Blues captain Ferguson isn't putting too much weight on the Englishman's shoulders this season. However, he insists that the summer transfer window is when the real 'pressure' will kick in as he needs to recruit effectively.
