Unimpressed pundit Charlie Nicholas has told Alfredo Morelos time is up because he reckons fellow pros know the Rangers striker cannot run.

The Colombian forward's weight has come under scrutiny and it is claimed Celtic star Greg Taylor branded him 'fatboy' during Monday's pulsating 2-2 draw at Ibrox. And Nicholas has urged Rangers boss Michael Beale now is the time to cut ties with a player who is free to talk to other clubs.
