Gio van Bronckhorst Rangers future discussed by Barry Ferguson as Malik Tillman handed 'bored' tag

Barry Ferguson believes Malik Tillman looked BORED during Rangers' defeat at St Johnstone and says Giovanni van Bronckhorst will get until at least the World Cup break.

The Light Blues boss is under increased pressure after his side fell seven points behind Ange Postecoglou and his Celtic outfit following their defeat at McDiarmid Park. They also dropped recent home points against Livingston with the fan unrest building. James Tavernier was confronted by a number of angry supporters following the defeat in Perth. It's not just domestic matters with the Champions League delivering six defeats from six and also the unwanted tag as the 'worst ever' group stage team after a -20 goal difference.

Rangers face a massive game with Hearts on Wednesday night before they travel to St Mirren ahead of the World Cup shutdown. Club legend Ferguson reckons Van Bronckhorst will survive in his role until at least then. He also is in no doubt over the 'unbelievable ability' on loan Tillman has at his disposal but reckons he looked bored against St Johnstone when losing the ball - with Fergie calling on the midfield to do the dirty work as well.
